A:
  • You should respect C's belief, for all beliefs are of equal validity and cannot be denied.


B :
  • I deny that belief of yours and believe it to be invalid.
  • According to your statement, this belief of mine (1) is valid, like all other beliefs.
  • However, your statement also contradicts and invalidates mine, being the exact opposite of it.
  • The conclusions of 2 and 3 are incompatible and contradictory, so your statement is logically absurd.
