So, the mind body problem asks how can a non-physical mind (or soul) interact with the physical body, which doesn't seem to be your question. Identity...
You live the life of my cat, which is a nice life if you're a cat. If all's hunky dory, why the therapist? And what's up with your not knowing if your...
It's the ebb and flow of interest. Everyone varies their frequency for whatever reason around here, without maintaining obsessive interest for too lon...
It's great your mother loves you and you love her back. You ought go up and ring her neck with a big ole hug and tell her, "Mama, I 'preciate the shit...
It's not tiring for you at all. You delight in this conversation about you, which is now paradoxically about you to the extent we can talk about it be...
All that you say is true, but to give you some perspective on this, Wallows, as I understand it, is fully disabled due to emotional issues. That being...
It could be you've looked at the prisons and seen that most of the bad actors are male, or it could be: I'm just saying I looked at the same prisons y...
Yeah, well, I'm sort of attached to my kids as well, so I'm not sure it's a feminist thing in actuality, but more of a feminist thing stereotypically....
I think it was sarcasm. He might in fact be crazy as shit. I'm not a doctor, so can't be sure. It was all in fun though. Many of us have known each ot...
If harm includes sending someone to jail in order to keep him from committing other crimes, then yes. These antinatilism posts continue to pollute thi...
And you're still crazy as shit, so I guess I'll have to concede the point that psychiatrists and psychologists are useless. Well played sir. I went to...
Most people are psychologically healthy enough that they can function with or without any form of therapy. Since there's minimally wrong with them, th...
But what I said was: This would require that those being assisted are those who want to be assisted. I've not suggested that any branch of medicine im...
This conversation really isn't one that fits within the purview of philosophy as far as I can tell. Because psychology is a scientific discipline, the...
I'm not sure who's coming. I've got a lot of maybes. I'm pretty sure @"Baden" and @"Michael" will be here because their mothers are already here and t...
Those 60s and 70s bands had a reemergence in popularity in the 80s when I was in high school and college, bringing back so many memories of old friend...
He's no Lord and savior. A real Lord and savior doesn't die at his own hands, but chokes on his own vomit old school. https://youtu.be/vWh3B8slIt8 The...
If you qualify realities into "mine" and "yours," you're inserting value into the term "real," as in the phrase "real reality" would distinguish, at l...
The examples were: The modifying adjectives employed all related to emphasizing the reality of the object, and the argument, as I took it, was that su...
But we do have to account for what we know to be subjective interpretation that doesn't exist in the original. What I impose on the interpretation of ...
I looked at a map and from what I can tell Canada is only a couple of inches from where I live. In terms of the underage thing, I'd think you could ju...
I come here for much the same reasons as @"Baden". One day we should all meet at a pub actually. There's one just down the street from me with literal...
But doesn't that ignore the fact that the ability for different species to mate usually occurs only because the two already shared a historical geneti...
I started reading, but it was too long, and I couldn't find the answer to the question I was looking for. My understanding of hybrids is that they are...
As noted in the Bradenberg test, the speech must be directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action," which does not seem to be satisfied in...
The current rule is that the government cannot punish inflammatory speech unless that speech is "directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless ac...
Formalism, as a strategy (and I don't think it's a strategy with you as much as it is a personality quirk), is designed to jettison arguments and limi...
And when we look back in 20 or 30 years to this generation and to this time, will people claim we were the Trump generation that stood for whatever it...
Injustice and foolishness reign eternal and your itemization of them, some of which I agree with and others not, I hope does not mean to suggest there...
I'll offer you an observation. You seem to require a formalism that others are not nearly as married to and it's a constant source of exasperation for...
How do we know that we're using terms consistently in this thread, and that while you're talking about inconsistent term usage, I'm hearing tales of c...
Unless you provided the factual basis elsewhere, I don't know how they could have. Their responses certainly didn't reference it, nor did they offer c...
Fair questions. The OP was poetic, and obviously subject to interpretation. As we are to learn, it references deep loss suffered by the author. Had it...
Yeah, well I had no way of knowing you were talking about such profound loss, so I couldn't have been mocking you unless I actually knew that. So you ...
You can only tell me that my words don't accurately reflect what you're feeling, but not that I'm not listening because you don't know what I'm actual...
That was joy? I shudder to think what pain is. The best that was was a method for enduring pain. Real joy derives from feeling a sense of purpose beyo...
You sound depressed and you unfortunately use your advanced ability to reason to justify it, even to the more unfortunate level of rejecting the optim...
