No worries, goodnight.

True, but there is a way to bridge the gap somewhat, and that is by understanding the subjective nature of words themselves. I fairly recently fully r...
October 10, 2024 at 07:35
I think what this issue of non-understanding really boils down to is people not truly understanding their perception of nothing. Nothing by definition...
October 10, 2024 at 06:39
Yes, this is exactly what everyone ought to be doing, but instead, it's just assuming certain things are true because the majority of people seem to a...
October 10, 2024 at 04:57
You probably understand more science than I do, but at the very least, we both agree about objective time, which is great, that I'm not the only one w...
October 10, 2024 at 03:48
No, it doesn't have an in-built truth value, it's actually an ordinary statement, in a position where it has the illusion of seeming to be more than i...

I don't know what to tell you then, I've explained this as clearly as I can.
September 04, 2024 at 02:47
No, I understand how it fits into our system of classification of truth and falsehood just fine since my solution provides that answer. Really think a...

When you think of a hole, there are two different values, the empty space (which is a positive value when you want to know how much space you have ava...
May 02, 2024 at 23:45
It would be a positive number, which is why I didn't say - A, just A, which in math equals +A. If A were 0 calling it "A" wouldn't have a point since ...
May 02, 2024 at 16:44
If the ground is unknown it would be X or A, or any other variable. I'll say A. The ground is A The hole is 0 the dirt removed is +1 A-1=A-1 but then ...
May 02, 2024 at 05:24
No, paradoxes can be resolved, but understanding nothing is impossible. Paradoxes are not nothing, nothing is just non-understanding, so if a paradox ...
May 02, 2024 at 05:21
No worries.
May 02, 2024 at 00:37
You're misunderstanding how values work. using your own math: ground = 0 (why zero, makes no sense) hole = -1 (if the hole is -1, then it would take +...
May 02, 2024 at 00:36
I'm not sure since I don't know every philosophical hypotheses there are.
May 02, 2024 at 00:27
Yes, that is the paradox in a nutshell (if I'm understanding you correctly), when you keep things vague and generalize what a hole is, it's a paradox,...
May 01, 2024 at 18:33
Thank you for being honest about it.
April 29, 2024 at 05:09
Read the whole thing, but it did not counter my post any. Unless of course you didn't read my whole post and just assumed I said things I didn't, misu...
April 29, 2024 at 04:50
Though it's true that ignoring them is what I'd normally do most of the time, I can only ignore them because I'm in a position of a certain amount of ...
April 28, 2024 at 22:53
If something does not make sense to you, then it doesn't make sense for you to conclude that it actually does make sense, and that's why you think it'...
April 28, 2024 at 21:50
How amusing, using the straw person argument to reject my post as valid.
April 28, 2024 at 21:44
Thank you for the positive response!
April 28, 2024 at 21:43
The word strawman is an outdated term because it expresses gender discrimination, but don't just take my word for it, places of education are already ...
April 28, 2024 at 21:22
If you think there is no straw person argument, it's a paradox. In other words, those that think they're not using straw person arguments but actually...
April 28, 2024 at 20:50
Yes in regard to all of Flawlessism remaining as all of Flawlessism, but this post is not dependent on that aspect of Flawlessism. As I explained befo...
April 28, 2024 at 20:45
Wow, it's actually rare that I find someone who agrees with me about anything.
April 28, 2024 at 20:09
That was a vague description of Flawlessism, meant as a short introduction, not enough to understand Flawlessism in regard to the post in this thread.
April 28, 2024 at 20:08
You can argue however you want, but if you don't understand the correct context, all you're doing is using the straw person argument. In other words, ...
April 28, 2024 at 19:30
Ah, I see, you wish to keep things vague, but what you're doing is just a straw person argument. If you don't want to bother to understand how what I'...
April 28, 2024 at 19:29
No, there's still another possibility you haven't thought of yet, which is ???. In other words, a possibility we can't understand at all.
April 28, 2024 at 19:25
You're talking about a specific hole in this instance when there are two different types of holes: Non-value hole= not being matter/dirt/etc. and not ...
April 28, 2024 at 18:35
It depends on what your beliefs are. Reality doesn't have to make sense, we just want it to. For all we know, tomorrow logic could stop making sense, ...
April 28, 2024 at 18:23
It's truly amazing how many of you don't read the whole post before commenting, only skim reading it at best.
April 28, 2024 at 14:38
Yes, "seems" is correct, the issue here is that you clearly don't know anything about the religion Flawlessism which is what my post was about, meanin...
April 28, 2024 at 14:36
This is a thread about the religion Flawlessism. If you actually knew that religion you would know that your argument has no basis because of what I'm...
April 28, 2024 at 14:32
Life does make sense to us provided we don't ask incoherent questions... That's like saying, fairies are real until you start asking questions. You th...
April 28, 2024 at 14:25
That was myself explaining the paradox, in other words, that was not the solution. Had you read the solution section, you would have understood that.
April 28, 2024 at 05:49
Since you're so certain of yourself, you can't be reasoned with until you experience for yourself the error in your reasoning which can't be done thro...
April 28, 2024 at 05:21
Oh? So you're making the claim that we can know things without belief? In that case, can you tell me why life has to make sense to us? Because the rea...
April 28, 2024 at 05:05
Once you have a belief about something, you can have knowledge about it then after the belief because you're using the belief as a foundation for your...
April 28, 2024 at 04:26
Thank you for sharing, I'll be sure to check it out in the future.
April 28, 2024 at 03:56
By that reasoning, you're saying you understand everything already, preventing what you once didn't understand being equal to nothing, becoming someth...
April 28, 2024 at 02:58
By that reasoning you are saying that a circle is a square at the same time because they're both shapes. In other words, since they're both similar to...
April 28, 2024 at 01:49
I am uncertain of everything (even myself existing), and even nothing since nothing requires understanding of what is not nothing to compare by, like ...
March 24, 2024 at 14:41
I believe in the atheist sect of the religion Flawlessism (yes, a real religion, not a secular one). I believe in it because it's internally consisten...
March 24, 2024 at 13:01
Evidence you have won or lost a debate is not in the other person telling you, it is in your own understanding. If someone can address all of the poin...
March 14, 2024 at 23:11
I'm going to stop responding to you now. Have a nice day.
March 14, 2024 at 22:45
You're making so many assumptions that this conversation just isn't worth it anymore.
March 14, 2024 at 22:41
No, I don't, but it sure sounded like you did.
March 14, 2024 at 22:40
Ok then.
