I mean logic by logic? Abstracted and applied. All men are mortal. I am a man. I will die. There are various logical schemes, but propositional logic ...
May 21, 2020 at 03:06
Logic. In practice not application.

I guess the flaw here is I didn’t make it explicit enough that predictable experimentation would be useless (no better than astrology). Without a test...

It isn’t meant to be a commentary on religious or scientific history:
May 19, 2020 at 17:12
It wouldn’t. That isn’t scientific. Besides the POINT of this is to try an appreciate what the world looks/feels like to those who we may consider bli...
May 19, 2020 at 17:10
That was the general intention. I was hoping someone could build on it and make it more interesting/accessible and useful. Basically if the entire wor...

I was posing a thought experiment in an attempt to better understand biases and dogma. If you can improve on it I’d love to hear how. The short cut yo...

How long would it take to change these beliefs though? This is especially difficult when previously all the evidence supported your position. I didn’t...
May 17, 2020 at 13:30
Yes, it’s utterly ‘impossible’. The point is to appreciate the unbending conviction of those that go against what experience clearly establishes as fa...

I never mentioned any ‘god’ on purpose.
May 17, 2020 at 12:53
I don’t see how that follows.
May 17, 2020 at 12:51
Very late reply! That would be ‘indirectly’ in what sense? If there was no human culture/language then we’d create one via necessary interactions - we...

I am something like a carrot, yet to be unearthed, I am something like a table, I am something like a see-saw too. I am something like a marble, rolli...

I’m out of time! Will see if I can do something tomorrow during my lunch break.
May 15, 2020 at 13:58
I’ve think I’ve made that crystal clear already. False. This is has not been proven by any stretch of the imagination (mostly wishful thinking). For r...

Have you been diagnosed as schizophrenic by a healthcare professional?
May 15, 2020 at 03:10
Have you actually been diagnosed as schizophrenic and had a second snd third opinion?
May 15, 2020 at 03:04
Okay, so you’re just plain stupid then? Fair enough. https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/teens-who-smoke-pot-at-risk-for-later-schizophrenia-psychosis...
May 15, 2020 at 03:03
Are you be purposefully stupid? I have read your posts you know. The CONTEXT is you’ve stated elsewhere you have issues and now you’re saying you smok...
May 15, 2020 at 02:58
I wasn’t lashing out. I was stating VERY clearly what he is doing here - and in other posts - is stupid and irresponsible. If you have severe ‘mental ...
May 15, 2020 at 02:56
No, I’m concerned that people with ‘mental health’ issues who are scared of seeking professional help (due to stigmas) will follow opinions online. Sa...
May 15, 2020 at 02:39
Reported, as I have with other posts. PLEASE think before you post!
May 15, 2020 at 02:23
Go to a fucking doctor! You say you’re a schizophrenic and depressed, AND you’re openly saying you smoke cannibis? Either you’re lying, as you’ve done...
May 15, 2020 at 02:22
That’s just stating the physical reality of the world isn’t it? In the correct configuration any bunch of subatomic particles has the potential to for...
May 15, 2020 at 00:01
I’ve said this before. I don’t think it is either healthy or productive to ask for opinions about something that concerns you on a forum that is full ...
May 14, 2020 at 16:23
People with have greater freedom to do as they please. Isn’t that obvious? What did I miss? I’m assuming you meant something else, but I’ve no idea ex...

I would argue strongly that any ‘philosophies’ that aren’t potentially harmful are not ‘philosophies’ at all. Mistakes and faults are a necessary part...

The Socratic Method is a nice place to start - it encourages conflicting opinions to actively question each other with more focus on articulating thes...

I’ve suddenly lost interest. Take it up with someone else, sorry.
May 13, 2020 at 09:58
*seen* the figures. It was about 2 years ago, I’ll do what I can. Gapminder does pretty much show how raising GDP helps everyone in many ways.

The point about biofuels was not that the fuel made couldn’t meet demands it was that due to land clearance and planting the crops the net effect was ...
May 13, 2020 at 09:20
This is kind of pointless. I’ve the figures. What I was actually saying was an international body did a global survey of how environmental issues were...

In terms of distribution of funding, they are. The ‘trendy’ causes that get the limelight and funding tend to be the least effective (short term and l...

People are to blame. The mass media is driven by a demand to be entertained and to stare at as many car wrecks as possible. If we’re going to blame so...

I’m bored of not being bored.
May 12, 2020 at 17:32
I thought that’s what I did after that opening. Basically if what we ‘experience’ - our ‘experiencing’ - is what we call consciousness, how is this an...

It makes sense to fish. If someone is convinced there’s a big fish to catch I’m willing to let them guide me to the right spot. I’m presenting to comm...
May 12, 2020 at 10:27
Are we conscious? If so what we call ‘consciousness’ is in fact just ourselves being aware of ourselves as ‘conscious’. From this basic linguistic ass...

May 12, 2020 at 09:32
I don’t see any reason why all three of these cannot be addressed, in parallel, whilst writing. The first just means to be as clear and concise as you...

Felt like this lost way a little around the midpoint. The introduction was great and gave a very clear picture of what was to come. I would, personall...

As a brief critique of my own piece ... It seems stretched between two different approaches. The ‘mood’ is sometimes whimsical, but sometimes the tone...
