Oh, you should have waited for Counterpunch... now all that will happen is that he will again list all the reasons he says they will not work.

So you know that your lucid dreams were dreams. That's the point. Being awake is different to being asleep.

See if you can list them for yourself. Consider it a first step towards your redemption. Be your own devil's advocate.

Again, my point is that there are other solutions, that may work as well or better, and yet you obsess with one. And when this is pointed out, you hav...

True but irrelevant. The critique I offered is based on the logic of your proposal: that one solution will work for all. It's wrong.

The sunlight is on my roof. So, no, it isn't.

We are agreeing again.

What is tedious in the extreme is your supposition that one solution will solve the issue. When faced with a complex problem, should one just decide t...

That's just page one.

Was this in reply to my mortgage comment? Curious, isn't it, that maths seems to be both discovered and constructed.

...talking about poor expression.

It might turn out that 1+2 does not equal 3? Or that the Bishop does not stay on its original colour? Or even that the earth is not roughly spherical?...

But read the article.

I've answered that, but you don't accept the answer. Would you agree that there is a distinction to be made between the question "Do you know things t...

, Do you know things that are false? All I have done is to set out the consequences of answering "no" to that question.

That's factually incorrect.

Morrison and Coalition sink in Newspoll on the back of rollout shambles :roll:

Methuselah is very cool. And another example of how astonishing our cosmology is.

To be sure, the contradiction is in asserting that the LNC is true but contingent. I can't see how this can be done consistently, and Bart has been un...

Which was to be proved.

It's like you read my posts but didn't process what was said. YEp, there are problems. But that there are problems puts the lie to your The conclusion...

I really don't. I'm not keen on the lack of depth, nor the way there is an emphasis on how little we know, when one might well emphasis how extraordin...

That seems to me to be wrong. That there was a Big Bang was proposed because there is such a schema. I'm not following you.

It might be worth a new thread, too. It is interesting, especially as a possible way of dealing with the liar. The Stanford articles give a taste for ...

We know there is no unified theory. I think all that that implies is quite impressive. Awesome, in fact. My suspicion is that you are trivialising it ...

I don't agree, at least in so far as we know far more about the universe now than we did a hundred years ago.

To be sure, Dialethism is a respectable option for a philosopher. But it involves asserting that LNC is false. Bart has asserted that it is true.

Yep. until they think about it.

What's that, then. As in, it's pretty unclear that there is a workable sense of free will. Did we do that? I don't think I've expounded on that for a ...

You can do whatever you want; but you ought not.

He is an intelligent fellow who has perhaps missed out on receiving a decent education. Hence he grasps half-formed ideas and nails them to the mast; ...

I'm still here. If you have something to say, say it, and I will reply. But see How to Deal with a Passive Aggressive Person Several times I entered i...

Oh, Nos, I haven't poo poo'd your fetish before. Here's the point, just for you: the complaint in the OP is about a mooted schemes that might just sto...

He hasn't even got the marketing right this time. An ad that tells folk to be afraid while at the same time thy are unable to get vaccinated. This sho...

It's a rhetorical ploy.

I didn't claim otherwise. Treating free speech as an object of adoration is fetishising it. Now go re-read the OP, and replies, and note the way free ...

I don't see anything that supports your claims.

Good. Then i apologise for pulling your strings. But I maintain that free speech is a fetish for the many amongst us who lust after it only to server ...

The issue is freedom of speech. The greatest present travesty against freedom of speech is the imprisonment of Assange. It's not a misdirect, it's a r...

Oddly, notifications from you are not appearing in my mentions list. No, it isn't. It might be wrong, but as things stand it isn't. So it doesn't foll...

Indeed. Hence fetish: an object believed to have special power to protect. And what is to be done about Assange? Why talk about this piddling issue wh...

That's all well and good, and entirely irrelevant. An ad hom, trying to get folk to look at me instead of the specified inadequacies of your OP. Woof.

But you and I know better. I'll vote for mathematics as a construction rather than Platonism, since I have no clear notion of what a form might be. Cu...

Remember that I have no skin in this. I'm just laughing at a silly OP.

Oh yes. And the net result will be saving lives. Sometimes when the dogs start barking at nothing, it is fun to bark back just to see how loud they wi...

How rude. The point is that not just any line outside the square will do. So which will you choose, and why? Taking this to be a line outside the box....

Is "dog whistle" a phrase used over there? Your OP was a whistle to the local dogs, who are now barking at nothing. You havn't made a point of any sig...

Not I. Not openly, anyway.

I've no way to make sense of this. Is it an attempt at irony? Perhaps I'm missing some background?
