Did you read the description of the OP?
August 16, 2017 at 01:16
I don't believe that there is anything special in the dead, but that death itself doesn't signify anything terrible
August 15, 2017 at 14:29
its because it made me laugh

August 14, 2017 at 04:11

August 14, 2017 at 04:11
Depends on the weather, you?

A very deep question indeed. My name, a play on my last name and the word anonymous, should tell you that I am someone who doesn't want to be found ou...

In relation to emotion, you're right, the only person feeling anything when the individual dies is us, the living. However, I disagree that there is n...

We would do the same thing that we used to do when slaves did all the work for the rich folks, unless of course the A.I. thought for us as well, in th...

In what way does my statement above remind you of interiority concept? From what I've read, his concept revolves around transcending the rational worl...

Are you a physical being? Are you an emotional being? How do you exist? What is your true potential? I will only be touching on the simple physical an...

Would you agree with me that human condition is not one of the physical brain, but the mental one?
August 13, 2017 at 02:52
Thank you John, for discussing with me this extensive topic. I've enjoyed learning with you and will use your knowledge to my advantage in the future.
August 13, 2017 at 02:49
And that is where philosophy was born

Ok, let's say a marriage, in the context of a marriage, one individual understood that the other was cheating, and then told the partner the truth abo...
August 13, 2017 at 01:26
I was just playing along with your original example, I wasn't really playing that far into the question. But dont avoid my question,
August 13, 2017 at 01:22
And if there was a misunderstanding, and no one cheated? Then who is the one ended the relationship? Whose truth do you believe?
August 13, 2017 at 01:20
What about the other side of the argument "You ended the relationship", is that not the opinion of one of the parties in the relationship?
August 13, 2017 at 01:17
Yes, I see what you're saying. So help me out, how would you differentiate between what is true, and what is fact?
August 13, 2017 at 01:12
In my opinion, I would call truth a form of opinion, and opinion, an open ended statement based on your biases and experiences.
August 13, 2017 at 01:09
You can solve a case on facts, you can't solve a case based on truths
August 13, 2017 at 01:06
I also see truth as a relativity, close to an opinion, but not quite. And fact as unchanging.
August 13, 2017 at 01:06
I see truth as discernable and fact as measurable
August 13, 2017 at 01:05
Why are you here? is it to disagree with peoples truths? Or to show the facts? How you define something is in the eye of the definer, even words, some...
August 13, 2017 at 01:01
Is that the truth? Or is that fact?
August 13, 2017 at 00:59
So how would you define truth?
August 13, 2017 at 00:47
what? @everybody
August 13, 2017 at 00:45
I like the way this dude puts it
August 13, 2017 at 00:44
Come join the "Post-Truth discussion" and look at the last page, currently having a discussion on this very thing
August 13, 2017 at 00:43
I'm going to go another step and say that truth is present when fact is not sufficient.
August 13, 2017 at 00:40
I like what you're saying here however, would you agree that for someone in China during the Holocaust, their truth is that they are not experiencing ...
August 13, 2017 at 00:36
If that is the case, then you can't fight fact with truth, but you can fight truth with fact. I would say that this argument is much like my argument ...
August 13, 2017 at 00:24
would you agree with me that truth and fact lie parallel on the same spectrum? Revised below
August 13, 2017 at 00:21
Would you agree that Truth is relative to the beholder? An oppressor has a different truth than the oppressed, yet a truth they hold nonetheless. The ...

Thank you 'multiple symbols that I don't have on my keyboard'
August 12, 2017 at 16:47
Even in a morgue with many dead bodies, or in a cadaver lab, with many dead people, there is still much respect that surrounds the room, and the peopl...
August 12, 2017 at 06:12
Well, the question you asked is the basis of my question. Why do we respect the dead? Is it because of the memories we have of them, or because of the...
