Agustino

>:O it was!

lol on what do you mean?

Could the paperwork saying something different instead of being non-existent be worse? Yes the principle is indeed reasonable, but as reasonable as mo...

Okay, first let's make some distinctions. Yes theoretically the administrator/CEO of the company is the one bearing all the accountability (unless of ...

True True Yeah, where do you get the money for those? It gets easy once you can get those. The hard part is getting to that point. Making that money s...

That's not exactly true. CEOs typically are politically manipulative - but they're only capable within an already existent structure. They're not capa...

Managing people in a company that already works, and has a built hirearchy and a lot of resources isn't difficult at all. Even a monkey could do it. I...

I haven't said I rank individuals I meet on that table by virtue of them holding a certain position. I merely stated that most CEOs aren't terribly sm...

No I haven't said I admire the CEOs at all. I said I admire People who make their own jobs - who contribute with their own value. This may very well n...

Yeah, I actually admire those. But the point is there's nothing great about simply having a job. It's about your creativity, learning skills that are ...

Hah hah! I forgot to laugh. Securing a challenging job - let me tell you, even if someone made me CEO of Microsoft tomorrow I'd refuse. Unbelievable t...

Oh yeah, and guess what, Hanover means by "paternalism" and "fatherhood" promiscuity and the like. He certainly didn't tell Question to go and get mar...

I endorse this advice fully. All my experience is congruent with this. (Y)

Then your mother should be ashamed of herself.

Yes, but in order to be more than that worm, you have to accept the possibility of being that worm. Only when fear of being that worm has been overcom...

Perhaps we should remind ourselves what I said to Hanover in a thread sometime ago - he frequently thinks he's at the pub talking BS with folks who ca...

Do you think for example that Descartes is unfairly out of favour today? Well most philosophers earn their money based on the diversity of their resea...

Because people never think about those things generally... And even when they do, many are still confused, not to mention that such things don't have ...

That's if you believe Hume. I don't find that to be the case. I find that we believe something to be plausible when it is coherent.

It's not ridiculous at all, it's simply the only plausible explanation for our experience as far as I can see.

Finally some good sense has befallen on this thread! Thank you Sir! :D

Finally - now that we've cleared the way, time to address your actual points instead of laugh at you and mock you as some prefer to do. They should kn...

Can a thought kick a stone? No. If the two realms interacted causally, we would see a lot more expanded causation between the two.

And indeed they don't cause it - that's precisely the point!! Thought cannot affect extension. No there is no causation, just the pure correlation. Wh...

Substance. Substance being a metaphysical category cannot be an empirical one - thus you cannot ask what is it, the way you ask what a chair is....

Oh yeah, this unscrupulous prick is back :-} And what are you Hanover, pray tell me? You're supporting yourself, but what use is that? There's nothing...

Yes - they are two perspectives of the same thing, so they are necessarily correlated. They couldn't be two perspectives of the same thing if they wer...

Be careful - seeming lack of ambition can be the mask for the greatest of ambitions. The thing with great ambitions (unlike puny ambitions) is that th...

What is your explanation for the correlation between serotonin in the brain and happiness. Why are they correlated? Well it seems to me that you want ...

So then, what are you doing around here trying to speak of them? Why are they correlated?

Have you been reactivated by someone? >:O You seemed to have vanished

You could take a million examples. Feeling happy is serotonin released in the brain seen under the attribute of thought. Serotonin released in the bra...

LOL Why my penis?! :-O

We do know, that's why we established the reality of the One Substance. The attributes cannot but be two parallel perspectives, since underlying them ...

I have another one which may be similar which happens to me whenever I don't sleep for a night, and then go to sleep. I half-wake from sleep still lar...

I sometimes feel similar in mine, but at some point I was just like - "What's the point of opposing?" and there was some opposition left, but I felt d...

This could have been the case - however - all attributes are necessarily parallel to each other. This is similar to the performance of music and the m...

This - this is the core of your disagreement. The point is your position, transcendence + immanentism is incoherent. It just is contradictory, you can...

Okay, but when I judge things I tend to judge by what the philosopher has written, not by what I could get him to agree on. Undoubtedly Berdyaev has a...

The test was a moral test though, so we're not done at all...

>:O LOL!

:-}

Please note there is a difference here that I've explained to Emptyheaded above.

Interesting - did you ever try to give in to it? This is again interesting, although personally I've never experienced anything like this. When I do d...

Intellectual celebrities by today's standards are pretty much not worth discussing with, in my frank opinion. I wouldn't gain much out of a chat with ...

:P (L) yay! haha

:’( Why did you remove the gif? It was hilarious! >:O

Let's see - maybe her future husband? Maybe, if the "two lads" have partners, maybe one of them? Maybe their conscience? Maybe their families? The web...

What?! You mean he should've said Agustino saw through his ploy? :-O >:O

I sometimes have it, it's a very interesting experience to be honest. Mine happens just when I fall asleep when it does. The feeling is of a great sur...
