Thanks. But don't give me too much credit. I'm in the process of changing my approach to responding to posts I disagree with. :halo:

Not anymore. I lost the 666.

So humans need to practice to hunt to survive? What happened to farm animals, manufacturers, distributors, and supermarket stores? No, I don't see tha...

No they have a reason-- training for hunting. If cattle is made available, that's where they're going to practice. I agree. No maliciousness in animal...

As a solution, you might want to create a noreply PM:

I deleted my last post to @"Down The Rabbit Hole" because upon reading it myself, it sounded so rude. I then realized that when posting in response to...

That's not what you said in your previous post.
June 03, 2022 at 23:10
Good observation. Postmodernists' critical theory world view is the extreme form of skepticism of all things humans. I don't subscribe to it. It puts ...

First try to understand what a probability is.

Money that grow on trees.

Not showing on your posts, though.

Not my family. But you brought up another dimension to naming, which I forgot to include. "Rosanna" happens to be already with an "a" ending. So, they...
June 01, 2022 at 22:52
Speaking of diminutive names -- I know a friend's family who does this. A lot. Rosanna is a family member whose birth name is Rosanna. She is never ca...

So the statement below I mistook to mean that you've come across this idea from her writing, which is an argument for the elimination. If that isn't t...

Oh the irony! And what does she think she's explaining this under? Metaphysics? You bet. She's not using science here, nor psychology. She's using met...

If Schopenhauer had made an error in his argument, I'd say let's look at the fallacy of amphiboly. But he did not. At first shot, John Atwell sounds l...

Raising animals for consumption on a large scale -- and there's no other scale because population -- will always entail treating them like inventories...

Just a thought about watching live performance. I watch a lot of live plays on video. This is a pop dance jazz number from a band I don't know. (They'...

Makes sense. :chin:

Because even the shoutbox is not safe from spamming anymore.

But not sold as bread, though.

You can look up Japan creating t-shirts with vitamin C (yeah, I thought there were shirts that had multiple vitamins, lol :sweat: ) I'm not sure about...
May 27, 2022 at 16:14
No it doesn't. And it's illogical to use event 1 to assess the likelihood of event 2, and vice versa. Sampling and population, for one thing? You shou...
May 27, 2022 at 16:10
:sweat: C'est horrible! I think there was a time that shirts with vitamins are being sold as health supplement -- you wear it and you will absorb the ...
May 26, 2022 at 18:51
That's the kind of "mystical" I was trying to convey when I said earlier that we could create a mystical place that adapts a positive aura. I deleted ...
May 26, 2022 at 18:49
Edit: I just saw your other thread about mystical experience with psychosis.
May 26, 2022 at 16:22
Tout naturel. :up:
May 26, 2022 at 16:13
As a semi-vegetarian and continuing to progress to vegetarian state, the more inward the meat is, the more I tend to repulse it. I've eaten those, man...

Pure luck.

Never reheat fish in the microwave. In fact, never reheat leftover fish. Eat it cold or put it on the counter until room temp. However, the oven is an...

None. I'd like to be the person to take care of you during your neurotic-psychotic experience.
May 25, 2022 at 22:20
Because the most vile expression a human being could do to another is sexual in nature, which has nothing to do with having sex, but violence in the s...
May 25, 2022 at 22:15
This is acceptable if another poster is asking for supporting works. My pet peeve: Someone posting swathes of paragraphs, a lengthy, well-formatted ex...
May 24, 2022 at 21:43
But you're forgetting, relativity does not prove the big bang, it only supports some testable hypotheses. I said this in another thread, there is no p...
May 23, 2022 at 05:44
I was typing up a follow up post to mine and meant to say that people should stop cutting corners by inserting "god" as their conclusion if they want ...
May 23, 2022 at 05:12
Not necessarily. The big bang does not have falsification qualification, but it's scientific.
May 23, 2022 at 05:10
Good point of contention. In math, there is a point at which we cannot determine an exact answer to a problem due to the enormity of the amount for wh...
May 23, 2022 at 05:02
I always thought that anything we are compelled to learn that has nothing to do with the preparation for the apocalypse should not bother us too much,...

I discovered that I was struggling understanding this thread because of Streetlight's incorrect attribution of what makes capitalism a capitalism. And...
May 22, 2022 at 18:01
Could you tell me why that is surprising to you? Why should I be thinking about marxism in this thread? It's not an economic system, just so you know....
May 22, 2022 at 17:52
Yeah. He's defining U in terms of T.
May 22, 2022 at 01:48
That's what we're trying to answer. Because humans evolved from animalistic awareness to intelligent humans. For example, homo sapiens?
May 22, 2022 at 01:36
This is his question, which I'm interested if anyone could answer it: Please read his entire OP.
May 22, 2022 at 01:34
Quibble in placement of words. Nah.
