Why would you consider burning a book 'violence'? If it's violence, then does that imply Muslims have the right to self-defense from that violence?
February 16, 2025 at 19:08
Nothing I said was about "proving a point". What point? It's a challenge, not a point. And it's a challenge that every other community other than Musl...

I wonder if, in a sense, burning qurans is part of that challenge. I kind of see it that way. "I'm burning this quran, it's up to you and your communi...

February 15, 2025 at 18:57
ok that's dumb lmao.
February 15, 2025 at 18:55
Ah right but when you insult people it's an objective fact XD you're such a dick.
February 15, 2025 at 18:53
Seems par for the course for this guy. Lots of non-sequiturs.
February 15, 2025 at 18:53
what makes it silly? can you explain?
February 15, 2025 at 18:44
a book with (allegedly) muhammads words printed in it.
February 15, 2025 at 17:10
go ahead.
February 15, 2025 at 17:01
Can YOU prove your statement?
February 15, 2025 at 17:01
Well I must state as an objective fact that you're a retard.
February 15, 2025 at 17:00
good answer. That's probably worth doing.
February 15, 2025 at 16:59
that's unecessary. Why so sensitive about it? Nothing in there is a proof.
February 15, 2025 at 16:59
What's the difference?
February 15, 2025 at 13:42
(sorry for popping in mid conversation out of context) Without going into too much detail, I've had extremely similar events in my life and feelings. ...
February 15, 2025 at 11:56
your conclusion is correct, but it doesn't seem like you did anything to prove it.

Why do you think it's interesting to ask me questions I wouldn't know the answer to, and then tell me nobody knows?
February 14, 2025 at 21:27

Your point is to tell me that no one knows the answers to the questions you randomly decided to ask me?

I genuinely don't understand why you're asking me any of these questions. I wouldn't know.

It seems like you're in the habit of just saying random shit without any desire to connect it to the conversation.

As opposed to there being any possible way to charitable interpret that as close to the truth.

Calling it a "logical conjunction" is a category error. Logical conjunctions don't have numerical values.

the same property. So kinetic and potential are the same as each other. That's just objectively false

you haven't clearly expressed what you mean by "and" at all. You've said it doesn't mean plus, this is the next option as far as I'm concerned. What e...

Do you mean e equals the kinetic energy, and also separately it equals the potential energy? That would imply kinetic energy is always equal to potent...

how does that apply to a numerical value that you get for e from Einstein's equation? "This numerical value is equal to kinetic AND potential energy"?

I would say "what is 2 and 5?" Is a very common way of asking "what is 2 plus 5?"

Also you're wrong about what the e means, it doesn't mean kinetic plus potential.

Something that's just a formula has no truth value whatsoever. It doesn't make sense to call a formula "true". A = dx + ey - z^3 true or false?
