Do you agree with everything you say?

Answer 1

I'm glad someone brought this up. I don't think I agree with everything that I say.

Some things are said for certain reasons; i.e. when you're angry, sad, or helpless and even when you want to sound smart. And they may not always be in line with whatever that I believe in.

I think sometimes, we say certain things to make situations less ackward, when we don't want to create problems with others. And sometimes, we're acting with ourselves, hoping with certain deep and "insightful" things said, would make us deep and insightful to others and so we become deep and insightful to ourselves.

So yeah, I don't always agree with what I'm saying. I don't really know whether I really believe in what I'm saying now either. Do you?

Answer 2

I think "agree" is a vague verb and that the word you are searching for is "believe."

Only one response to this question above mine was a philosophical answer. Even if I agreed with or believed in everything I say, which I don't for any number of reasons, I can always disagree or amend or disbelieve what I said after I heard myself saying it. Also I may disagree or disbelieve totally with the content of what I say or said, but still say it to someone else in order to explore or test that content by argument and discussion. Keep in mind that one can doubt the content of anything we say, but still agree we said it.

Bottom line, to the extent that whatever the content of what I say is *underdetermined* and partially complete and subject to change with my experience and reflections, I can't ever say about matters of importance that I totally agree on or with anything I said or say.

Answer 3

I not only do not agree with everything I say, I doubt everything I say.
I also question where my thoughts come from. Sometimes they are nothing more than something one of my parents said.
Kinda fun to examine a thought process.

Answer 4

Most of the time, but sometimes I will just be talking and not even understanding what I am saying.

Answer 5

Yes. I also know the exact scientific definition of every word I use.

There's your answer. become a philosopher.

Also, there's two exception--just because you know the truth about anything, that doesn't mean you have to tell all of it. every time. And it doesn't mean you have to say it to someone who you think it is not worth telling it to.

Answer 6

I'd like to think so, but sometimes things are said impulsively at the wrong moment. Some things are better left unsaid.

Answer 7

Everything I say three times is true.

Answer 8

At the time that I say it, maybe; sometimes, however, I realize that I am mistaken as soon as an utterance leaves my mouth.

Answer 9

Not in all circumstances sometimes the minute it comes out I regret it.

I do here on this forum. But I will vote for the best answer that mirrors my answer.
