An object is defined as black when it absorbs light of all frequencies. An object is defined as white when it reflects light of all frequencies. Given that the respective properties are defined as being very different things, it is demonstrably incorrect to say that they're the same thing.
Now, you could claim victory by asserting that you have different definitions for "black" and "white" that are actually the same, or that what you mean is "Mr. Black is a white guy, and Mr. White is a black guy," but that's sort of cheating.

The fact is Black was named black, and recorded as such. Unless you have proof from an earlier age of the official naming of black and/or white then the previous remains as fact.
Wait, we need to more rigidly define "valid" before this conversation can continue.

That's just his opinion man. He's got a right to his own opinion just like anyone. Stop jumping all over him just because you've got a different opinion.

White is when you mix all pigments together, though.

Stop generalising my feelings just because i come from a different forum!

whatever man, this is just because I'm from SE so you're all piling onto me.
Just because this person is from a place where people do not value logic does not mean that his opinion at least to him is any less valid. He can be wrong to the whole world and right to himself?

I thought that was brown. Of course I'm recalling this from my days of fingerpainting, but when you mix all the paints don't they make brown? Of course paints != pigments.

Thats only cheap paints, so says my art teacher.
And white is when all colours are in a perfect balance. Black is an utter lack of colour.
Technicaly neither of them are colours. But contrasts/shades.

Well, that depends. Is SE++ a religion? If it is, he's automatically immune from criticism for no apparent reason.

I haven't really been that serious with the looking just yet thanks to family type schtuff. I'm going to flood the streets with me resume next week. Hopefully working at a medium firm in an architecture related capacity, but I may just settle on CAD monkey so I can quit my shitty summer job at Target.

Good luck bro. If architecture is any thing like engineering, then you shouldn't have to much trouble finding work. Engineers are in high demand at present.

I don't know what it's like where all of you live, but all the black where I live is in fact white while all the white is in fact black. I think some of you should get out into the real world if you think this is not the case because I've seen it like this myself.

Why is you're location written backwards? And why is there another version of you with the name and the title and everything typed backwards?
Cite.
Barry White and Frank Black are the same person?
whatever man, this is just because I'm from SE so you're all piling onto me.
He did a name swap with blankspace, but they typed everything backwards.
WHY WOULD YOU NOT KNOW THIS?

Reverse racism!

Wow that's pretty good at short notice.
Assuming that I wouldn't know such a basic fact is asinine.
