There's nothing mystical about it. There is no view. No consciousness. No subject. No view. Nothing. Death.

Yeah, sleep without dreaming is an unconscious state that if it continued indefinitely would be indistinguishable from death. So, your ideal form of l...

As always, we need the tapes.

The phony dossier nonsense again. :yawn:
August 10, 2018 at 13:12
Well then there would be no need for consciousness, and it never would have evolved. So your perfect world is essentially death, or at best a living d...
August 10, 2018 at 12:43
What the...? Trump can't even dominate the space between his ears.
August 10, 2018 at 09:15
What other choice would you want? Sit around and do nothing in a perfect world with no challenges?
August 10, 2018 at 02:46
Or you can be interested. So...

Therefore there is something to do. Helps solve the issue of boredom you've often brought up, no?
August 09, 2018 at 17:56
:clap:
August 09, 2018 at 17:44
So, following that route: The issue seems to parallel subject/object confusions such as replacing "He traveled to Russia more quickly than I (did)" wi...
August 09, 2018 at 17:35
(By the way, I presume you mean "More people than Baden have tried and failed to win an argument against me". At least give me and the Russian agent s...
August 09, 2018 at 15:30
Yeah, there's also that Russian sleeper agent who shills for Trump on here. Can't remember his name. I'm in good company anyhow. :halo:
August 09, 2018 at 15:28
Neither meaning nor grammar is exactly right or wrong. You can shade from obviously correct grammar and clear meaning all the way to the polar opposit...
August 09, 2018 at 15:24
Hm. So, that would translate down to: "More people have been to Russia than Englishmen have been to Russia." Which does seem OK. Though: "More people ...
August 09, 2018 at 15:20
The first example construction you gave is in the passive voice. In the passive, subject and object swap places. "I" am a person. A fish isn't. That m...
August 09, 2018 at 14:59
Anderson Cooper made me do it. He's had more hot Russian dinners than Trump and the CIA put together.
August 09, 2018 at 14:20
:lol:
August 09, 2018 at 14:18
He's an annoying opportunist devoid of principle looking across the Atlantic for inspiration on how to appeal to the worst elements of society. All of...
August 09, 2018 at 14:18
So (considering the implied ellipsis) the sentence says: More people have been to Russia than I have (been to Russia). "Been to" in this context means...

I get it now. This is Hansover's way of apologizing for his huuuuge mistake in voting for this nut. Aw, cute. :hearts:
August 09, 2018 at 03:10
Everything Trump knew about Trump was wrong. And still is.
August 09, 2018 at 03:08
Oh, is it one of those, "Nobody thought he'd win but pussy grabbing is more popular than you think, vids?" Yeah, old news.
August 09, 2018 at 03:06
So, he's not President. Well, that's a relief. :up:
August 09, 2018 at 03:01
Thanks for taking a look and being so reasonable about it. :up:

That's how a mom should feel. :up: :strong:

Interesting. Anyway here's more (this time not an actual stoning but an accurate representative video of one). Again, so people make no mistake about ...

Here's a first hand description of an actual stoning. Of Agu's "just and moral" punishment for adultery: "An Execution in Ghazni: Stoned for Adultery ...

August 06, 2018 at 11:40
I know, sorry. But this is the reality. This is what Agu is condoning as moral. Real people today, men and woman, are suffering the punishment that he...

August 06, 2018 at 11:27
So what? Cultures, like individuals, can be morally wrong. You need that explained to you? What exactly is wrong with you? As Zizek says (somewhere), ...

Fair request. I don't know, but I'll look into it. Just to add that by incite violence, I don't limit that to direct imperatives such as "Let's go bea...

Not only fulminate. You can draw any conclusion you want as long as you look at something. So, for example, if you want to find out crime rates in Syd...

If so, that would make even his anecdotal sample size zero and his 'argument' exactly the type of baseless hot air we've come to expect from Trump sup...

There's this whole field of philosophy called ethics. I suggest you look into it.
