No I meant the situation. The how is a bit complex for me to attempt right now

Sad.

I don't think it's as simple as a desire for wealth, but sure. We should then apply that logic to developed countries GMOs and wild plants are their o...

Phrasing it that way is just nonsense semantics. It doesn't justify a farmer making such little money that they can't even buy food because they grow ...

I never said in logic or analysis I can know this for sure. Honestly I like that. It keeps me in the right mindset.

Honestly I tried to avoid saying this since it basically rejects objective logical knowledge, which many don't like, but one part of what I meant is t...

I don't know either. Is the rock the same rock? Is it in a sense but not in another sense? I've wondered about that for a while, but can't really conc...

That's not literally what I mean of course, I just translated it into what came to mind, which is why I said it sounded horrid. Yes, what it seems I m...

Yes. It is tautological. I know. Why prove something to tell yourself you already know, and which only people who know will not need, and the rest who...

Well, I have no idea why any sound minded person would adopt such a hard line stance to the word true when trying to do actual epistemology. I can onl...

Well in the initial post I outlined that I came to a different definition of knowledge, one that is, yes, founded upon belief in belief (I guess, to g...

I don't see why apparent contraries make it untrue. How do you know you are interpreting it correctly? Context applies there. You have to know the who...

By scripture, I meant it as a potential transmission of higher knowledge through the proposed lineage and whatnot, yes. I agree with that the first pa...

Why do you conclude this? The basic premise of mysticism (take vedanta or sufism) is that there are infinite paths to the truth, and all are equally v...

anyways, i posted something tonight which might be of more relevance.

i try not to refute skeptics and solipsists at this point, but i have more to study, but i try to work them into my thought processes and see it more ...

Ok then, in certain contexts the over simplification I described is seen to be that. I think it still is a useful entry point for discussion, but it i...

Yes, it is definitely a logical leap to make a claim of reality which is just being happy with consensus because I think it is necessary because I wan...

By that "reality" I mean it in the way we look through language (the semantic meaning of our experiences). If I am not to be a solipsist, how can I av...

You seem to claim that language is so vague that the apparent logical picture of reality I need for my argument is not the case. So, within contexts, ...

Please read my response to Frank and rethink your interpretation of the writing. I agree with what you have stated and all of that is central to my ar...

Yes, you are misunderstanding my argument. My argument is that words have meanings *only within* contexts, and because there is meaning in those conte...

I apologize, I use the word truth in two ways. The first is to describe what happens in a context where we all do approach reality from different vant...

Before I reply could you expand on this a little bit? : arguments over those differences often takes over for fundamental topics in which it comes to ...

In what sense are you meaning truth as myriad, and why? I get what you mean, and no that is not what I mean. I mean it as I wrote. And yes, but that i...

In English: I am a child who wants to touch a hot flame (not not a hot flame). I touch it and realize I don't want to touch it anymore. I did not unde...

Think of it in terms of a child touching a hot flame, as an example.

?

I've always felt that way to some degree, ignorance interfering with parenting that is. But what can I do? Improve upon what I see, I guess. Anyways I...

Alright, yea, so we're behind schedule perhaps, we'll have to see what happens, we need more data even now, etc. The article seems to explore a lot of...

Does anybody know of a more quantitative map based description of the initial post and its endless ensuing details? That it seems is what I'm really l...

I remembered the name of the main author I read on the pipeline topic: https://www.amazon.com/Carbon-Democracy-Political-Power-Age/dp/1781681163/ref=m...

Hey person, this forum is full of people who are at times in vague tone coming off as combative (see past it, we're all flawed) buy more importantly t...

Haha I've actually been hearing that more nowadays.. I mean in what way? How much? Where? How would it come about? Population reduction (in the craaaa...

Hah. I think we need to take it as it comes, yea. About that pipeline thing, I was referring to some literature I liked quite a bit about the oil and ...

As far as the last paragraph goes, a lot of it is being done already? Uh, but obviously more needs to be done.

Healthy food is a basic thing. If it actually is what it claims to be, then it is worth the price. Cheap food is not really hugely beneficial to the c...

There is so much out there. I'll need another five or so years to really become an expert on this, but let's say after hammering down on a few more bo...

I don't really mean believe in myself. I mean more the amalgam I mentioned. Belief in myself seems to just be a catchphrase, which is how I intended i...

I appreciate that. I don't have as much time for that anymore as I'm preparing to farm, but it'll always be there to some degree for me. We all need i...

To what end?

Yes of course. I don't mean to start a discussion about the types of belief. I'm more interested in this type of discussion which I'll repost from dis...

Nice. I agree with all of the above

That is exactly what I was thinking.

I like the generational point. How should we achieve this? I am willing to take action/help.

But nobody goes into it expecting to be a billionaire? We do it because we want to. The market isn't set up to support us. I don't think it is as cut ...

I think it would require massive revision from top down, but it seems necessary, no? I don't think we need to totally become isolationist (each countr...

Hahaha, yes! I am in the process of learning everything about it to avoid those two things as best I can. But yes, it is a way of life.

How do they increase efficiency there though? I can't eval your data unless I have details about their methodology. I've heard stories of machinery an...

Well.. damn. Very cool
