Yeah, but half of that number in troops are Americans-turned-Jihadists who were enchanted by the wonderful promise of the Islam. Plus, after joining u...

But she was nice and religious. She so dumb, she couldn't cunt up to five. She kept missing the number 4.

It did not work... for long. There is no presence that we know of by the USA in the Middle East wars.

"Just say NO." It has a ring to it, it has the writers behind it, it is unmistakeably a slogan... yet even this hasn't worked.

"Poverty is where it's at. Yeeee-Haw, poverty, don't leave home without it." -- Does not have the same ring to it. They have better writers.

Some grasshopper species are actually more plant-based than animal-based.

This qualifies as the quantified theory of love? I have to admit i actually don't have the faintest what we are talking about here.

In a high school dance, where everyone went solo, not in couples, back 50 years ago, every boy first asked the prettiest girl to dance. Or dreamed of ...

You're right. In fact, there is a science now of writing fiction. They know precisely what any one person on the globe is willing to read. It has some...

hate to let you down, but my mother was not a virgin.

It is a huge compliment to a writer who is experimental and non-commercial. On the other hand, I've been compared to Shakespeare. By some editors. The...

In some circumstances there is nothing better to do than what the person actually is doing. To say "you have nothing better to do than..." is a moral ...

Randy, you are a writer. You have a superb command of verbosity. That opening post is reading material enough to win top prize in a short story contes...

thank you for putting up the quote.
January 12, 2020 at 04:40
Hehe! I actually never made such a claim, because it would be false. (And yes, you can call me out on that, what with my giving you an understanding I...
January 12, 2020 at 04:39
I just realized that you claimed here a tautology. "A belief is always a belief". It can be followed by "that such-and-such is true" or by "that such-...
January 12, 2020 at 04:26
Actually, that is not what you have always claimed. Here's the proof: You are claiming this now, because I convinced you of its truth. I don't know wh...
January 12, 2020 at 04:24
Think of it this way: the likelyhood that your certainty is right on (ie. that your belief is false, or else that your belief is right on target) is r...

I appreciate that you may have known the concept beforehand. I have a little devil that sits on my shoulder and asks me, "why does anyone need to quot...

I don't follow that. How can you be sure that for every X there is exactly and precisely a -X? This is a statement verifiable only by empirical study....

This is a point of contention; we have no data of an observed infinity of objects, but it is not inconceivable that there is an actual infinity of obj...

Simple objects are not capable to function. They are simple; they don't have component parts, as per being a simple, indivisible thing. Only those thi...

That's one point I'd contest if I were a psychiatrist-philosopher.

I believe in materialism, and determinism, and no spiritualism of any kind. But I don't feel screwed. For one thing, we would have already solved the ...

You can't argue against logic like that. It would certainly drive any son to madness to have the Father as his father. I wanted to gag my dad with sou...

The same holds true for readers.
January 11, 2020 at 02:05
You seem to misunderstand the meaning of "certainty". It is a relationship between belief and truth, not simply a belief. Conceivably nothing we exper...
