Yes, you can if it’s on the same thread and following a long string of replies on the same subject.
March 04, 2018 at 15:05
Not always as far as I remember. And are we only meant to reply to posts that are addressed directly to us? Oh, I must have misunderstood the forum ru...
March 04, 2018 at 14:28
Exactly the same thing that made you think all my previous posts, that you replied to, were addressed to you.
March 04, 2018 at 14:24
Ummm yes.
March 04, 2018 at 14:23
oh, excuse me! Did not realise you had changed the subject. I may be strange to you but you certainly have very short attention span.
March 04, 2018 at 14:21
Our brains have greatly evolved since the Stone Age. No excuse to cherry-pick prehistoric ancestral traits. We are very different to animals.
March 04, 2018 at 14:15
That’s not arrogant at all! There, there, who upset little Clarkie?
March 04, 2018 at 14:04
All right-wing politicians are adept at that. It’s how they compensate for bad judgment and lack of reasoning.

What’s your point? Are you saying she slept with someone to get to where she is? Is it possible that her own credentials and qualifications got her th...

Has it ever crossed your mind, even remotely, that they might be fighting against the objectification of women because it's wrong and they do not want...

No wonder you are a Trump's admirer, btw. His motto is "..grab 'em by the p*ssy.."
March 04, 2018 at 01:55
And the usual responsibility-aborting cliche "a friend of mine mentioned that..." Why don't you just admit you are a chauvinistic pig (I hope pigs wil...

Can you blame them? If the US had the same military interference in their neighbourhood by Russia, like the Russians have had from NATO, the reaction ...
March 03, 2018 at 23:58
And a very corrupt, selfish, racist, psychopathic, bigoted misogynist. And how exactly does that benefit you as a voter? Mind-boggling, self-inflicted...
March 03, 2018 at 21:40
And you trust the government to guarantee your money in such scenario? Adorable simplicity.
March 03, 2018 at 20:16
And who are you exactly to point the moral finger, sir? Take a good look in the mirror first.
March 03, 2018 at 20:12
Oh, so god exists and it's a "He"! Wow! It's getting better and better. Applauding. To be fair, I suspected he would be a man as he is pretty sh*t at ...

I am not defending the bankers in any way, I think they're parasites and should not be rewarded the way they are, however, if the banks fail, say tomo...

Trump fantasises on becoming a dictator some day. Had his power not been limited by the American constitution and other democratic constraints , he wo...
March 03, 2018 at 13:45
And he is the cherry on the cake who's going to put everything right, correct? His attitude towards women, minorities, immigrants and anyone who is po...

Oh, so you are talking from a place of safety. You should be living the "dream" most Americans do today and I would like to see how fond of the orange...
March 03, 2018 at 13:27
YOU sir are what's wrong with America today. So many ill-informed ignoramuses shooting themselves in the foot and buying into propaganda that's agains...
March 03, 2018 at 13:22
Yeah, count on Trump to increase taxes on the rich. Trump is not an entrepreneur. He inherited his fortune from his family and he screwed up several t...

Well, they still know more about the economy and are in a far better position to form a realistic view on it. Protectionism is bad for the economy as ...
March 03, 2018 at 12:28
No. Say the people who know more about economics than the hillbillies who think that Trump is on their side.
March 03, 2018 at 12:12
Do you really believe in all this religious crap? What is wrong with you people? Can you not think for yourselves and see how rubbish this all is? "th...

I think you are a figment of my imagination
March 01, 2018 at 22:34
Well that narrows it down! Cheers mate

May I ask why it was deleted? I did not participate in it and I don't know what it was about but just out of interest so I know how to avoid same fate...

Yes, they could and they are.

A state of mind.
February 28, 2018 at 00:27
the amount of thought it puts into it. And the kind of thoughts it occupies itself with.
February 28, 2018 at 00:01
mind is synonymous with brain. Fairies and intangible entities in the sky are not involved in the process of thinking as far as I understand.
February 27, 2018 at 23:36
What I’m saying is that happiness is created in the mind and is therefore independent of the material world. You are confusing survival with happiness...

What evidence do you have that it isn’t?
February 27, 2018 at 21:04
from someone’s backside, would be my best guess.
February 27, 2018 at 20:17
You just googled that, didn't you
February 27, 2018 at 15:54
It isn't. It's all in the mind.
February 27, 2018 at 15:53
I agree. Waste of time trying to think what they might look like. Now, what would Aideen the Fairy look like, I wonder?

You prove it's not...

I was going to but fell asleep (unconscious) halfway through reading this thread. Can you summarise the main points?
February 22, 2018 at 13:19
Happiness is a self-delusion.
February 22, 2018 at 13:12
Exactly ! The good thing about dying is that we won’t be here (or anywhere) to worry about it.
February 22, 2018 at 13:07
Again, you took that too literally. We all feel like we are the centre of the universe because we experience the world through our senses. This does n...
February 21, 2018 at 11:18
You have missed the whole point. Death doesn’t bother me at all, which is why I don’t need religion.
February 21, 2018 at 11:16
There is no way to show "evidence" for something like this, either in support or against. It can only be a conclusion one arrives at after considering...
February 20, 2018 at 15:27
There'd be no such chance if there was no "life to come". Another supporting idea that the absence of afterlife would negate the need for religion.
February 20, 2018 at 14:54
Dude iz from da hood...
February 20, 2018 at 14:42
Religion has always been equivalent to intellectual stupefaction.
