I disagree. We can be certain that solipsism is not the case. Solipsism leads to an ill defined infinite regress that would not allow you to form any ...
If a person has no opportunity to improve their lives then this would be an injustice. Very often that is not the case with the suicidal, at least in ...
Not having speed is not the logical equivalent to is not dynamic. In modern physics time is not a separate dimension. All spatial and temporal dimensi...
Life is not filled with continued suffering. A great deal of my life is a rather enjoyable experience and this is true of many people. I can understan...
By definition the term objective includes all subjective perceptions. The only need for distinction is between a subjective belief and an objective tr...
Science is a method within a theory of knowledge. Science relies upon empirical evidence and/or logic to support claims of knowledge. Essentially beli...
You did not answer my questions. You introduce a problem, how can a thing which is static be converted into an abstraction which is dynamic? And what ...
The reason life is colorful is because light has different wave lengths. Time does not have a speed. Speed is a measure of distance traveled in an amo...
I think this misses the point. Trump insists that the elections are rigged such that he and those who support him are the victims of a fraud that the ...
Time does not have a "speed." Time is treated as a dimension in modern physics. Speed is a measure of how many spatial units are translated in a given...
What an odd idea. You suggest that in reality time is static. Then you claim that we can defy reality and conjure the illusion that time is dynamic. Y...
This is simply not true. Solipsism insists that reality exists such that not self is not independent of or distinct from self. Non-Solipsist's note th...
If solipsism was true there would be no way to know it or no way to falsify it. There would be no way to know or falsify anything at all in fact. Soli...
The phrase "of the world" indicates that there is information which exists independent of any given observer experiencing that information. The argume...
Self reference alone leads to an ill defined infinite regress.. That is to say that founding metaphysical assumptions upon the notion that we only acc...
I give up, again my point is that in the Middle East they are implementing technologies that work and exist now and as well I am sure they are investi...
Its called the law of contraposition in logic and mathematics. If there is no existence of you or I then any doubt you or I have does not exist. Calli...
My point is the Middle East is proving right now that renewable infrastructure works and I am saying that in order to be competitive the West will als...
Well there are several factors that will contribute to the problem. One is population growth compared to supply development (in the west there is has ...
I am not sure what you are suggesting. Are you saying the West should not compete in being a renewable energy superpower because it is too expensive? ...
The Middle East does not consume nearly as much fossil fuel as the West or East. So they do not contribute to global warming nearly as much as US and ...
The problem of affordable housing is not a problem one person can resolve with self sufficiency. The problem is that the pace of housing development i...
Descartes proves self existence from extreme skepticism. He assumes that all he knows is subject to doubt including his own existence. In order to eve...
I am not talking about an infrastructure upgrade alone. The West needs a cultural revolution. It is not a matter of if fossil fuels eventually run out...
The rate of housing inflation compared to wage earning increases over the years does not really bear this solution out. Just getting a better job does...
This really does not address my concern. The West is not investing in this type of ground up infrastructure projects while in the Middle East there is...
I recently came across this youtube vid that had an interesting theory about why affordable housing is in such short supply. https://www.youtube.com/w...
G. Spencer-Brown, he wrote Laws of Form, a book that seeks to derive foundational principles of form. http://www.manuelugarte.org/modulos/biblioteca/b...
Are you suggesting that the CMB is a prediction about the initial conditions of the universe or that the prediction of CMB is a complete account of na...
Actually initial conditions of the past cannot be determined with any current models. You cannot reverse time to determine the initial conditions prec...
I have never heard of any axiom of free will in quantum mechanics. I think it is important to point out that no classical or modern theory gives us a ...
The argument arbitrarily assigns a status to god that is not justified by anything other than the notion that god is god. That is to say that god is u...
You can refer to the sources I provided. Thermodynamics is not symmetrical. Surely you don't intend to suggest that the above listed theories can simp...
This makes sense. If we only had self reference we would not be able to define self. It would be logically impossible. You have to have an "other" or ...
Some feminist are irrational. They argue that men are responsible for insuring women have equality. If that is true women can never be equal because t...
Well not all laws of physics are deterministic. Determinism is often an interpretation more so than a necessary conclusion. This is especially true of...
Civilized societies are polite in spite of the threat of violence not because of a threat of violence. Perhaps if there was evidence that the more arm...
I am interested in pointing out that your claims about the transcendental are no different than anybody's claims about the transcendental. Again anybo...
Once again even people that are truly open towards the transcendental disagree about what is true and what is not. And claiming something is transcend...
