I remember you ! From: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/3098/word-of-the-day-not-to-be-mistaken-for-word-de-jour- And elsewhere. Anothe comeb...

Great that T Clark picked up that your Introduction hadn't been responded to. What kind of an online course ? And yes, it is always a good idea to sup...

OK. Thanks for that and the general overview. Last paragraph of OP: 1. 'The mystery of the origin of life is very real' - no argument with that from m...

Tom seems to have moved to that instead of his previous 'methodological naturalism' ? On methodological realism:

Thanks, Wayfarer, for this further information. I have yet to read up on some of the internet sources. I am following this thread with more interest t...

OK. That raises more questions. However, don't wish to spoil this thread by going off track. I will do more research. Have already found some bedtime ...

I've been skim reading this thread and (sorry if it is a derailment ) but want to pick up on something I had never heard of before. Methodological nat...

Indeed. This form and style of communication lends itself to people doing all sorts :smile:

It is lovely to chat with you too. I am not on any social media either. Re philosophy forums, I have participated in 3. Each one of them has pros and ...

Thanks for that but I am not so sure about it being 'courageous'. I agree any admission of being wrong after reflection can be seen as a strength. How...

There is nothing quite like 'knowing yourself' to be able to progress in a realistic and effective way. Whether you have to be wise first to realise t...

:zip: Goodbye for good. I was advised not to return. I should have listened.

Wow. 'Shut it'. I will. Permanently.

You said 'the admins'. They are a team. And I've already been talking with @"Baden" Seriously ?

:rofl: I am beginning to understand the previous drama which unfolded before my return to TPF and resulted in your banning, then unbanning. You just d...

Go on then :cool: I'm all done for now... Hmmm. An Art Gallery of Posters' Posts. A Portrait of Philosophy. Pop Art.

Hah. That would be fun. Taking all the favourite quotes as presented in posters' profiles could be a start... Seeing how they match up with their own ...

Damn. That's what I meant. Not 'Serendipity'. Wonder what made me think of that :chin:

Well, that's one way of looking at it. There are so many different perspectives, some more serious than others. All pretty much worth considering, if ...

Is a random topic necessarily inconsequential ? Whenever I try to think of something random that I have noticed, I wonder at its randomness. How might...

Yay :party:

Disingeneous. It clearly promotes your book, even if only indirectly. This apparently throwaway line came at the end of a long and dense OP. Self prom...

'Alone at home, oh fone a lone homophone !' :chin:

Hi and just to clarify: it's not my website and I have no authority to invite anyone to write for it. The general invitation on this forum TPF is from...

Also for instructors: https://1000wordphilosophy.com

Yes. I could and might still link it there. It wasn't about reproducing it here but as an additional initiative or component to the Articles section. ...

I agree. Just as you said:

To reiterate: Can something similar not be done here ? No. Not just the clarity on copyright. It elaborates on why people might want to contribute; it...

Thank you for this, and more. I need to start practising philosophy's 'Principle of Charity'. Whenever God is mentioned, my mind turns away. Whenever ...

Interesting. You have far more substantive feedback on your other thread (linked below) - 22 pages and counting The importance of a questioning title ...

I found a similar idea, as a learning resource, here: https://1000wordphilosophy.com/about/ '1000-Word Philosophy: An Introductory Anthology is a cons...

Perhaps that is the case, depending. We can talk about what 'non-utilitarian' means * or how a painting, or piece of philosophical non-fiction, can be...

Thanks for that. Does Tarkovsky reference the source ? Yes. Life and art can be seen as a gift ( from God ? ). A way of being and creating. However, I...

Statilius.Thank you. That is more than I was expecting. And less than I was hoping for. This fascinates me. I have read Goethe but not the others you ...

I love foreign tongues, even if I can't lick 'em all. I preferred an Italian 'but' to a French one. Why wouldn't I ? A French 'why' to an Italian. I m...

OK. But DIY reverberating isn't really enough. I wanted to hear about your poem in your own words. Nevertheless, this could be the start of a new disc...

Intrigando. Another guessing game...hmmm :chin: Is it that what we think we know is uncertain and it can only ever be qualified ? The truth needs to b...

Bravissimo :cool: But not sure about the strikeouts and brackets ?

The field extending The clowns collect A drifting litter Hoisting heavenly, hellish hooks Demanding 'Yes or No?' Falling, falling, he gives consent. S...

Oooh a tricky one. I guess that you are 'falling'. Now is that a gerund or what ?

The first rule of a game is 'You go first !' So let's be havin' ya'. Then at least you will have a 3-line poem :wink:

It's only been 3 days... I think it is more of a divertimento if people can try and guess the part of speech. I am looking forward to your poem... C'm...

Guess :joke: What part of speech are you ? It represents my rebellious finger to a probably longdead English teacher. And others of that ilk. But curi...

Yes. There is plenty beyond and behind this triangle. In addition to the 3 'wants' already outlined * there could be hidden interpersonal psychologica...

Oh for goodness sake, commonsense * would tell you people can be all that and more at any given time. Depending. I think I read somewhere* that this c...

Yum.

Yay @"Baden" :cool: Although I don't have the writing talent of others here, the sharing of such creativity makes me :love: :party: :starstruck:

On understanding: https://tinybuddha.com/blog/the-best-thing-to-say-to-someone-who-wont-understand-you/

@"Statilius" Disappointed mit kein Feedback. Don't you even want to know what part of speech I am ? What kind of a divertimento is this anyway, huh ? ...

:cool: But why pick on them ?
