I see. I'm dumb too. Join the club! The Trinity isn't nonsense in my humble opinion because religion was never about rationality. Were it so, why all ...

Apologies then. Must be the bad cold I have. Au revoir.

The universe ain't mathematical. Sorry Max Tegmark. Hopefully he isn't a Trinitarian. Newton really hated the idea! Adds up, he was the foremost mathe...

You get points for imagination and evasive tactics!

1 = 3 :snicker:

You mean to say reason doesn't guide us/doesn't inform our deeds? That's antiphilosophy, not philosophy! I quite like it! :smile: This however raises ...

We could take things at face value, yeah! Nothing wrong with that except doing so means you'll think, for instance, the sun revolves around the earth ...

Astronomical radio telescopes have to be pointed at a source which means radio waves have direction (vector, not scalar) and light belonging to the sa...

Really? Why?

Biological urges usually have a perfectly good explanation says the theory of evolution. The problem is that sometimes they can be counterproductive e...

Recycling souls in samsara! Makes sense to me!

Why not the question? Why would we want to reproduce given that path leads to disaster: overpopulation and its accompaniments like diseases (e.g. Covi...

I can only applaud in admiration at your idea - it seems to be well-thought-out. Not many can say that of their own worldviews. I'm still trying to gr...

Danke! Please tell me why it's speed of light and not velocity of light? A laser can be pointed in a particular direction, oui?

:rofl:

We must tread carefully here - nonexistence (nothing) must be avoided at all cost for it complicates the matter as is obvious from what you say about ...

:ok: Please carry on.

I'm sorry you feel this way! Good day. Indeed there's potential there to revolutionize science! Glad that you see it.

Natalism: It's ok/good to birth children. Question: Why?

Benatar, to be consistent, has to say: 1*. When someone doesn't exist to experience good bad, damage benefit has occured to no one. 1 & 1* (a consiste...

There is no "riskiest move" mon ami! De gustibus non est disputandum. Lemme clarify: Since how I feel (sad/happy) about the world is subjective (we're...

As I've tried to explain to you, this statement you just made \uparrow is nonsensical for the simple reason that objectivity is impossible in re happi...

This is what blows my mind, if only I'm correct that is. James Clerk Maxwell, a Scottish scientist, reportedly derived the speed of electromagnetic ra...

Okey dokey! Muchas gracias kind person! Please cut me some (more) slack. I'm a only a beginner as you already know.

I'm with you in that it would be presumptuous of anyone to think for someone else given that people differ so much in all the relevant respects (the s...

This statement is obviously false! Are you saying antinatalists are a fringe, minority group? I'm not so sure - remember one Doomsday factor is overpo...

Desperate times call for desperate measures, mon ami! Consider antinatalism a symptom; that should clear up the matter for you. If I throw a party and...

Most well-balanced report of the situation at hand! :up: As I suggested previously in another thread, we need hard data to settle the matter, but to c...

We can and do make mistakes, oui monsieur/mademoiselle? America is named after Amerigo Vespucci despite the fact that she was discovered by Christophe...

A calculated risk is when the odds of winnin' are higher than the odds of losin'. The risk is in name only, or nominal/negligble whatever you wanna ca...

Not forgetting the threats! :lol:

10^{123} :fire:

Well, in my humble opinion, there hasta be some kinda interaction between things to, in a way, establish their existence (to each other). A tree exist...

The possible outcome of one throw are (50/50 odds, a fair coin in a manner of speaking): 1. Dart lands anywhere but on the kid ( :smile: ) OR 2. Dart ...

Merci, merci apokrisis.

Dart Analogy for antinatalism. Imagine you're asked to throw a dart blindfolded. The person whose game this is informs you that there's a dartboard, c...

Yes, some of us, I guess the more liberal-minded ride on optimism, it's their superpower. Others tend to be conservative, extra cautious as it were, n...

:fire: You da man!

Correct me if I'm wrong, the whole idea of your EnFormAction theory boils down to, from the little that I know, yin & yang (the interaction of opposit...

:clap: :fire: Gratuitious suffering! Endemic stupidity! Fresh meat! Moral circus! :up: :up: As for your recommendation, let's go all out on (pro)natal...

Muchas gracias señor! @"Bob Ross" \uparrow Same question: Why does metaphysics tend to have foundations that use \infty?

I believe I grasped the gist of the OP's antinatalism. Pronatalists are of the opinion that a person (the child) will share the same values as his/her...

Synodus Horrenda (Pope Formosus). :chin:

So those who're learning are guilty of intellectual dishonesty? Gimme a break!

:smile: My Thoughts on Intuition & Logical rigor in Math Intuition is more a feeling than a thought. I've experienced it in doing high school math. Th...

The fault is entirely mine. I'm not known for my penmanship! Yep!

You're too kind, monsieur, too kind! :up:

To found a system/theory of metaphysics on a concept we know very little viz. infinity about feels wrong to me. It violates a cardinal rule in philoso...

Avoid beauty (pulchrum), you hairy beast! Alack, it's too late for me! I've already tasted flesh! \uparrow My attempted at a joke!
