You are missing something, and that is exactly what I said. The definitions of the term "profit" encompass all forms of individual benefit, period end...

You are understanding only that which you seek to understand, and ignorarntly negating anything you don't like because you must find some way to be co...
This, of course, is brilliantly asserted and accurate. However, science does account for this, modern neuroscience specifically. However, I will say t...
And to you as well, kind sir. I just like to provide irrational assertions with no basis for being posited a chance to demonstrate themselves as irrat...
The problem here, bud, is that there is no God. Not in the sense that there is not enough evidence to conclude as much, but in the sense that there is...
The thing about this description, is that I agree with you on an emotional level, inaccuracy as a correct descriptor. But, the more I study neuroscien...
Think empirically: good is equal to my 600 pound life? No. Being on the road, on foot, in heavy traffic? No. Complete failure of an idea just right th...
No, actually it's Epicureanism, from whence socialism plagiarised, perverted, adapted from Christendom induced historical influence, and has thereby t...
I agree, my astute friend. I agree. And I hope Epicurus, and the the dicoveries of that tradition do find a way to come in and lead us. I fear that su...
I don't doubt you mean that. I just don't think there's enough evidence to support the thesis. We're barely free as it is. Russia is showing us that r...
Again, this kind of thought is reductionist. The paradigm of thought with which we all operate, is influenced by years of specifically ethical philoso...
No, it was a tradition started by Epicurus 2000 years before his ideas were adopted by the rational world, post mystic-garbage. As far as my pet theor...

That's correct. A term that implies the accrual of resources to maintain as a matter of physiological imperative, my friend. Very meaningful. No, that...
That is correct. I am the Living Man. I am he who loves his life, and his love of life is his own standard and warrant for existence. I am the Man of ...
So, what you're saying grandpa, is that you've concluded the absolute, perfect conclusion about the nature of perfection? Sounds like grandpa's standa...

Profit is disntinguished by any form of benefit one can accrue that contributes to homeostasis. You can keep disregarding that, but, nothing changes f...
No, theories are postulated, then evidence is gathered that either supports it, or not. That's what I mean by empirical. These are not different vocab...
You seem to be under the impression that you are talking about different things. The body and all of its organs are a singular manifestation, the func...
Thanks for clearing that up, you had confused the hell out of me. It looks to me like you are starting with the word, placing a comma, and then descri...
Yes, those were the rules we voluntarily agreed to before coming here, that's an anarchic interaction to the core. Voluntary interactivity with people...
Right, the idea here is, if he would say "here's my faith, let's talk faith." Cool, no problem. When you tell me there is a God, I'll be needing some ...
