Half a century, huh? No' bad. Congrats. Keep it up :party: Were you given the customary 50 'dumps' or 'bumps'? :scream:

I meant to ask: Was it a Special Occasion/Celebration holiday?

:up: :clap: You've given me much to think about, thanks. If I decide to drive, then a few breaks along the way will be in order. Also, a close eye on ...

Nay, Yeah, Verily. Thou Ars Est :100: Magnifico :100: Mervyn Peake would have been proud. Was denkst du, @"Jamal"? The Royal Mile an' a' that :fire:

An update: You might have noticed that I've 'done' some of the short stories. And just as I thought, it is not the same as reading 'blindfold' and lac...

'Fancy Jeans'. I like the fun and cheeky wordplay. If you click on CC, you can read the subtitles.

The wink meant you were kidding, right? OK @"180 Proof" Here's my take. ( hindsight helps :wink: ) I read the story, scribbled some notes along the wa...

My perfect answer will have to wait. Going out now, a perfect nuisance! Good question, what do you think? I think the concept of 'perfection' or a per...

Why must such 'perfect' human beings exist? Do we/you need an Ideal Idol?

Who? Have you seen these people and how they are in all circumstances? What they think and feel...what they might keep hidden from view?

The trouble is, for most of us mere mortals, that we might know what is considered best for the body and mind but there's often a wide gap between the...

Hello. This seemed to come out of the blue. Who was the Note addressed to? What is to be understood as a 'feedback post'?

Condescending and wrong.

Having been told this kind of comment goes to the Feedback section, are you trolling the mods now?

On Shoes 1. Respect and Religion Shoes are steeped in custom and symbolic meaning. For instance, removing one's shoes can be a sign of respect, especi...

Thanks for your clarification. I so respect you, and other TPF participants, whose mother tongue is not English :100: I couldn't even write a simple s...

A year late in responding. Never mind. I come here from your current, thought-provoking thread: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/13432/mythop...

I understand that concern. What matters is that it inspires and provokes thought. You do that exceedingly well. I've started threads that don't inspir...

I am still not sure what, if any, conclusions were reached by the author. And then I noticed there was a follow-up...more questions. Wherein lies the ...

Wow. That is some general statement or claim to make. How true is it? Where is the evidence; how do you know?

Thanks for the article. I noticed your OP lists only 4 out of the 5 characteristics of myth and changes in philosophy as listed. The 5th: So, the main...
