The very strange thing is that I feel exactly the same way about you. You also have so much insight sometimes, you are a spiritual person, you are not...
Hmm okay, but don't forget that Buddhism is meant to lead to the cessation of suffering and that Noble Truth must also be taken seriously. In other wo...
Well obviously I don't know he never mentioned. However, using my imagination, I'd think his friends etc. are talking about having sex, how awesome it...
>:O I agree. There are some people who say they're conservatives and even religious but they're really not. Some even go to Church and then they are l...
No, he actually did that by pointing me to the methodology of the pollsters. Then I critiqued that methodology. That's the facts of what happened. Now...
Yes, you are quite witty, but you're not very conservative (or traditionalist) on cultural issues, you're more of an economics conservative I'd say. M...
It depends from case to case. I can't specify "generally" what such strategies would be since they're always formed and applied in particular circumst...
Okay, no problem. Sorry about that! That depends. Do you start dating a stranger? I wouldn't. First I would be very good friends with that person, spe...
He actually didn't present a mathematical analysis, he just indicated how the pollsters analysed the data they had collected. I've already critiqued t...
It shows magnanimity of character - which typically impresses all but the most cold-hearted people, but there are limits to it as you say. Nietzsche s...
It is possible, you are right. However, if you ended up in a romantic relationship with them, presumably you did get along with them at some point I w...
And what makes you think I don't know stats? I know stats very well, that's exactly why I have the privilege of distrusting them. Because I understand...
I think this is actually a serious misunderstanding of the gravity of our modern situation. I think Alasdair MacIntyre was right in his book After Vir...
Well, my idea at least, if you're in a relationship to get something out of it (the positive effects), then I don't think you really love the other pe...
Yes, very very difficult :D especially if we insist that they meet all those characteristics. It's very hard to find a suitable marriage partner, whet...
Well let's see... intelligent, independent, compassionate, chaste, not-selfish (I will not say obedient because if I use that word people will misinte...
Everyone should be skeptical of experts, not just Republicans. To me, it's more amazing how easily people bow their heads to experts once the experts ...
No, it's not that unlikely, because that assumes the whites (to pick an example), etc. are randomly distributed through the cities, geographical regio...
Yes, that's why unfortunately I think you'd make a not so good decision maker because you trust the "experts" quite blindly. I'm an engineer by profes...
Wrong. There's a lot of diversity in Americans. There's black non-religious Americans, black religious Americans, black homosexuals, black lesbians, e...
:s nope, that's no explanation at all. That's just parroting the theory to me, not showing that you've actually thought about it. You'll start thinkin...
To name a few. That the probability distribution is normal. That the sample is random. That the sample is representative. That there are no systematic...
Does this assume a particular mathematical model? What if those assumptions are wrong? There's a very important effect that comes with size, especiall...
Sure, and I certainly think that those who go in the ring and fight have a lot more right to claim victory compared to those who sit on the sidelines....
Your behaviour towards me is identical to your behaviour towards Trump. You sit there throwing your hands in the air that it's astonishing that Trump ...
Well yeah, exactly. Like you always do. Run away. That certainly means you're right. That's how crazy some people are. They think if they don't argue ...
I suggest you go back and re-read it, and please show me, where the hell do you see that I support there being a logical necessity between the two sta...
Can you please explain how I've shifted my ground? I never claimed there was any logical necessity between the two statements. On the contrary, it is ...
