Spot on Neils. Maybe a little harsh on the “pointless” comment. But that’s what I am often saying to @"Banno" about how analytics is unconcerned with ...

Well if you How could you say that? You know what humility is. You said above that you “support diversity”. Diversity and tolerance and acceptance of ...
August 15, 2025 at 13:38
I think progressives need to understand that being conservative doesn’t mean having no heart or empathy or feelings. And conservatives need to underst...

Three persons, on one side?
August 14, 2025 at 05:47
No it’s not. We need all of the different ways to talk about this shit we can get. They are all insufficient. What does “properties had by” mean? What...
August 14, 2025 at 05:25
Always.
August 14, 2025 at 04:48
Interesting. Makes some sense. Interesting. She’s funny.
August 14, 2025 at 04:46
I suspect it all provides more content for people to apply their well-developed or undeveloped judgment. There is no resolution better than the presen...

Do you mean like you and Frank “asked” for an explanation of the Christian narrative?
August 13, 2025 at 22:44
Not to trivialize. I literally typed out the “if not liberal when you are young you have no heart, and not conservative when older you have no brain” ...
August 13, 2025 at 22:42
I’d take this to mean more led by feelings, much in line with @"Number2018" thesis of the OP.
August 13, 2025 at 21:10
Right. So people like you (and me) are either racist due to our biases and we don’t know it (so, asleep), or we are way above the fray and just color ...
August 13, 2025 at 21:05
Yes. I see Nietzsche as providing one of these pivotal moments - he trashed everything. Made it fun to trash all that was supposed to be good. And it ...
August 13, 2025 at 17:47
I agree - the intent behind the ad campaign and predictive measures of its success is a whole discussion. And facts from that would be helpful to unde...
August 13, 2025 at 03:23
Right, so 1+1+1=1 can’t possibly be right, and/or, if it is forced to be right, there is a misuse of "1" or "+" or "=". So we have to get back to that...

:rofl:
August 12, 2025 at 21:45
I’m not exactly sure what you are saying to me. I agree, I think? Final answers. When it comes to the Trinity, like most meaningful things, knowledge ...
August 12, 2025 at 21:42
Hmmm. Is this a reluctant way of saying you are still mildly interested? You haven’t given any new effort to show me some pretenses. Isn’t life in gen...
August 12, 2025 at 21:39
Ok. To make one of the issues real clear (as it did for Claud), let’s put the issue as follows. Trinity lovers think they can say this: “One plus one ...
August 12, 2025 at 21:28
Michael, Amadeus, me, Mijin, others - all totally different people who take radically different approaches on other issues, and who are all able to ar...
August 12, 2025 at 21:12
See, I disagree. I think this is basically treating adults like they are irresponsible children. It doesn’t require “extended forestructure” - it simp...
August 12, 2025 at 20:31
The math according to you is: 1. Ad shows white girl saying “my genes” meaning AE jeans. 2. Woke folks will blow up in rage and thunder. 3. Because th...
August 12, 2025 at 20:07
So you are saying the woke’s reaction to the ad had nothing to do with the extra mileage the ad achieved for AE. No self-reflection. The math accordin...
August 12, 2025 at 19:38
You aren’t looking at the right thing. It’s not the campaign that teaches the lesson (so you don’t get the lesson). It is how the woke reaction to the...
August 12, 2025 at 18:30
Do you think I am offended? Or were you offended by me? Heated rhetoric need have no relationship to any offense or insult. No insult intended, and al...
August 12, 2025 at 18:21
Trinity “appears” to include specific contradiction. Yes. The rest of the quote is muddled but may be accurate. It is better restated: Catholics see t...
August 12, 2025 at 18:02
Will you admit you are theorizing about AE marketing folks’ intentions and predictions? This whole admission doesn’t matter - you are asking the wrong...
August 12, 2025 at 17:24
Why, what color/race is Beyonce and why do you notice that first and foremost? Seems to me the goal of wokeness should be that absolutely anyone on ea...

August 12, 2025 at 15:27
See, here it is again. This should be intriguing to an analytics first philosopher. I said this: Here is the question for the analytic mind who thinks...

Sure, we are the metal patients maybe because of our disassociation between Atman and Brahmin. Good stuff.
August 12, 2025 at 04:20
Im talking about you comparing God to a mental patient. And you, totally incurious about personhood and its disorders and explanations.
August 12, 2025 at 03:54
No. Actually they are both predicating and identifying. That’s part of the uniqueness of God being three persons. I know you don’t understand. The fat...
August 12, 2025 at 03:50
Men is plural. God isn’t. You must do better.
August 12, 2025 at 03:45
How is something like “disassocistive identity disorder” even possible to imagine as a coherent thing? What creature can make that category and what c...
August 12, 2025 at 03:43
How does the Trinity work? :lol:
August 12, 2025 at 03:39
Good lord - that sounds so sleazy.
August 12, 2025 at 03:36
Joshs, Great post. Something positive and thoughtful. Implicit bias, is real, and important for people to understand about themselves. So if wokeness ...

August 12, 2025 at 00:08
Three times now. What do you think about the intentions of some people you don’t know?
August 11, 2025 at 23:18
I don’t watch Fox News. Mostly vacuous cheerleading. CNN is smoke and mirrors. But if something big happens, I flip between them for the live stuff. I...
August 11, 2025 at 23:15
I think that says a lot. There are conclusions prior to the three parts of the Lois/Clark syllogism based on prior contexts that necessitate non-equiv...
August 11, 2025 at 22:09
Yes, please. Don’t make me show the gains and benefits and progresses of wokeism. That side of the discussion is sorely missing on this thread. Questi...
August 11, 2025 at 21:38
Would you consider someone who did think so would be welcome to discuss such opinions in the back offices and around the water coolers of 98% of the n...
August 11, 2025 at 21:18
It’s not about free speech. It’s about the cancellation. The physical shutting down. No one on the right is telling the left to stop arguing and debat...
August 11, 2025 at 20:39
I said twice already. The woke should ignore it. There was nothing of import for society to respond to. It’s a stupid ad. I answered that too. I don’t...
August 11, 2025 at 20:37
The right wing was never upset about speech being shut down, at least not on the top ten list of the problems with wokeness. It’s the physical changes...
