The instinct to survive and the idea to call someone from far away are two separate things. Instinct would say fight or run, or maybe scream. The scre...

Please don't bother answering anything I say here, because it is obvious that you have nothing to say. You stated quite clearly that you endorsed meli...

So then either it is a part of nature and not part of the discussion on the evolution of technology or someone as already imagined it and invented it....
May 31, 2020 at 01:58
Now that would be one of the few things I would like to see televised. Those, what would be a polite way to say shitheads, would be moving things so f...

Hang around long enough. https://www.owler.com/company/quottle https://github.com/RubenKuilder/quottle There you go. Usually when unknown things are p...
May 31, 2020 at 01:40
Let me go back a bit. I did not even try to pronounce anything about your life. All I did was to say that you have not presented anything to make me t...

:lol: I hate farcehook but there are times when it has its use. https://www.facebook.com/MetroPR/videos/386605718891355/ :rofl: Imagination, desire, i...

Ask some old people if they ever imagined being able to talk to someone across the other side of the world from a tiny box in their pocket. I am only ...
May 30, 2020 at 21:08
For something to have been a desire, you would first have to imagined it to be possible. I doubt that stone age people even gave it a thought, so it c...
May 30, 2020 at 13:10
So apart from following your own philosophy and trying to live a happy life you are doing nothing to make the world a better place. Endorsing melioris...
May 30, 2020 at 13:06
Yeah, mother nature, Gaia, plenty of them around that have similar ideas.

I put that up in the school cafeteria once, they made me take it down because they thought it would cause unfair competition with the chapel next door...
May 30, 2020 at 02:17
That seems familiar somehow, where did I hear it before? :chin:
May 30, 2020 at 02:04
With the amount of research into quantum entanglement going on there is a possibility of this happening one day. But I doubt that many of us will be a...
May 30, 2020 at 01:49
Side stepping the question does not help. I asked what EFFORT you are making to improve the world, not which books you are reading. Conforming to the ...
May 30, 2020 at 01:38
So yu doing that is going to improve the world. Endorsing meliorism is all fine and dandy, but saying that makes no difference to the world at all. Wh...
May 30, 2020 at 01:24
No actually it is a valid question. Do you have an answer?
May 30, 2020 at 01:16
Sorry about that, definitely badly worded. I have been busy in classes all day and just skipped a few minute to drop in here at lunch. Let me rewrite ...
May 30, 2020 at 01:14
And there is the key question. A brighter future for whom or what?
May 30, 2020 at 01:08
So where are is emotions, more importantly what are emotions?

The original game was to try to distinguish between a man and a women using only written text answers to questions, obviously speaking would have made...
May 29, 2020 at 16:48
I think that Turing meant that you could have a conversation as opposed to a question/answer session with it. It would be have to access vast amounts ...
May 29, 2020 at 03:39
Yes we are a part of the universe, but if our atoms where rearranged into stones we would still be here but in a different form. meliorism - The belie...
May 29, 2020 at 03:03
You are repeating yourself again and it still does not make any sense. Speak plain English and give an example that is valid in everyday life, I do no...
May 29, 2020 at 02:51
Choices made can lead to positive or negative results, but the choice itself is neither. Do all changes have to be progressive or conservative. I have...
May 28, 2020 at 03:03
Not even you know how decision making really works. If you had read what I wrote, I asked for explanations of your theory to understand what you were ...
May 28, 2020 at 02:53
The world universe does not need us to be here. Why would anyone think that anything we do would make the place better. Would you care to explain why ...
May 28, 2020 at 02:39
The world is getting along just fine, actually much better without us humans right now so I think that is sort of a nonsensical idea.
May 27, 2020 at 02:20
Wrong, all choice are between any available options. They do not have to be either conservative or progressive. I am going to eat a sandwich, do I wan...

Having alternate futures is acceptable, making them today is ridiculous.You can decide to do something today that will change what tomorrow might be, ...
May 27, 2020 at 02:12
Ok, let's try this. I chose a hamburger for lunch instead of a hotdog, A instead of B. What exactly did the spiritual do? Did the job of making the de...
May 27, 2020 at 02:02
That is why I asked, to try and find out what the hell you are talking about. Shame you never bother to answer questions. I am pretty sure that you wi...
May 26, 2020 at 04:00
Is this spirit supernatural? Or is it just your personal opinion of what the subconscious should be called.
May 24, 2020 at 20:37
That makes three of us, you and me too. Maybe if I had written "the answer to this question is yes" it would have been correct. But the mind boggles a...
May 24, 2020 at 03:42
First of all are you writing or re-writing a book on or about philosophy? Unless you have some entirely new insight into what the great thinker though...

Lock down getting to you is it? Stop watching the news, it makes your life miserable.

The poor bastards that were sawn in half were the saddest I think, I doubt that anyone can come close to imagining how that felt. But yes, humans are ...
May 23, 2020 at 03:06
So why the hell does he not just say that instead of blathering on about creation and creators?
May 23, 2020 at 02:45
So fear is a fact or not? I know for a fact that I have been in fear of many things in my life(scared shitless sometimes), would that serve as a model...
May 23, 2020 at 02:43
So you cannot prove that your other "fact" was a fact. Here you seem to be stating that all facts are about creations, could you please verify that th...
May 22, 2020 at 03:22
You stated this as a fact and I asked you to verify it. I think that my cats have a better chance of catching their tales than you do of verifying tha...
May 22, 2020 at 03:06
I did not ask you to tell me to use my imagination, I asked you to prove that what you said was true. On a one to one fact to what the fact is about s...
May 22, 2020 at 02:40
Best thing I have seen on wiki in a long time.
May 22, 2020 at 02:36
If this is a fact, please verify using your own method.
May 22, 2020 at 02:27
The only answer possible to this question is X itself. How did you get X from Y? X can only be equal to X and Y can only be equal to Y. So again, expl...

Please explain you reasoning.
