If the imagined object finds itself in a dark space then the space imagined looks all black. No light coming out. The object is black too in the sense...

Wrong. The objects have no color. Only when connected to our minds they have color. Later I'll expand on this. We must go to the vet now. Puppy dog ha...

Lagom: the Swedish secret for a happy life. With a mad fool and some noble dust this shouldn't be a problem

I tend to agree. Maybe disaster, natural disaster, has to hit their capital houses firstly. An inconvenient truth (it didn't need a disaster to make t...

Very true! How do we convince the powers that are?

This is Einstein's view, more or less. Dark is not the same as black though. Black is the color of an object (or the it). It refers to an object. Spac...

Climate change deniers lack vision and keep their eyes closed for the obvious which even the layman (especially the layman) can see: climate is changi...

That's because your eyes have edges. Space can be closed, finite, and without edges.

I already 10 years ago, no, even in my teens, made the prediction (like the Hopi) that natural disasters (storms and fires) will increase because of h...

What color has space?
September 13, 2021 at 13:00
Space has no color.

The more exact the numbers measured are, the more accurate.

It doesn't match perfectly. The supershowers were predicted to occur in 20 years. These showers ar people's-activity-induced.

You can point it at the other tips. Assuming all tips have a common core you can learn about the pointing tip.

Not everything is an IQ -show off. You can look up the meanings of all difficult words. Just click on them and let Google do the work (that's how I do...

I'm anti-wax too! I like women with hairy legs! :smile:

Equivocation. That's the word I looked for! Thanks. There are two different meanings for "exist". Which ones? I can exist while not existing at the sa...

Evidence: This year, a local supershower of rain stationary felt down in Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands. These were predicted to occur only in ...

That's your image of the facts... :wink:

No contradiction here. Just two different meanings of "to exist".
September 13, 2021 at 10:08
This year already holds a record. Of forrest fires and floods. Koyaanisqatsi. The Hopi knew already: trays of burning ashes emptied on the world. If t...

It's not a paradox. It's a lie. Someone saying he doesn't exist denies his own existence. So, instead of a lie, it could be denial also.
September 13, 2021 at 09:47
Yes. Yes.
September 13, 2021 at 09:43
That's a fact. But what if the cat finds herself in Schrödingers box?

Kant's right hand glove thought experiment is meant to show the symmetry between left and right. In an empty a right-hand glove is introduced. Is this...

Who determines if the statement is true? Don't say: "reality"....
September 13, 2021 at 09:19
???? It's VERY real!
September 13, 2021 at 09:15
Wrong matter?
September 13, 2021 at 09:03
In fact, I am right and you are wrong.
September 13, 2021 at 09:00
I "seriously" disagree. Facts are the path of least effort, cognitive-wise, perceptive, or everything-wise. Facts are subject-variant, dependent on im...

Looks like it indeed! I didn't know about soma being used by Indo-Aryans way back (?). I think I ask for an operation. To transform me into an Indo-Ar...

Is preference for images (over facts) self-flattering? If so, why?
September 13, 2021 at 08:36
Like the creation of the world by the gods.

Sounds like alcohol in present times. Consumed by those living in in-between limbolands or by those in the class of compliant loan slaves. To keep the...

I fully detest along. Dawkins et al. His "The Selfish Gene" (of which his watchmaker book is a copy in a different guise) shows an attitude that betra...
September 13, 2021 at 08:17
Okay, my opinion. I think it's really dumd. To think technique can replace human parts is to be ignorant, seriously ignorant, about the beauty of biol...

Not really. The future will bring chaos, barren soil, reduction of biodiversity, more pollution, suffering, fire and water, superstorms and superlight...
