Of course I was right.

SO - it was dealt with, and you want to know why it was dealt with? It was a child revealing personal information on a public forum.
June 27, 2020 at 00:35
Run the poll again, see how it compares. It is from three years ago, the complainants claim the change has taken place in the last year.
June 26, 2020 at 09:26
Ah... Cute.
June 26, 2020 at 09:22
A beginner question... If this proof is fine, then why the proof in the PDF?
June 26, 2020 at 08:38
Ooooh... that's sweet. Yeah, I gave up on @"Metaphysician Undercover" about a twelve-month ago. I'd previously thought that there was something intere...
June 26, 2020 at 08:06
Yes, it was.
June 26, 2020 at 06:13
it’s not an OP and you are not a Mod.
June 26, 2020 at 06:00
There's a reason for that.
June 26, 2020 at 05:23
Roughly half.
June 26, 2020 at 05:18
Earlier in the week @"StreetlightX" dumped a thread I started on Imaginary numbers - thrice, which gave me the shits at the time. But he was right, th...
June 26, 2020 at 05:13
Depends where you are. It' "000" here.
June 26, 2020 at 02:03
There is is. Ah, who knows? Might be fun to watch. @"Baden" has already offered to set up the mechanics.
June 26, 2020 at 01:46
My last discussion with @"3017amen" about debating was at pp. 10-12 of the God Almost Certainly Exists thread, of loving memory. Going on that, when @...
June 26, 2020 at 01:44
AH, that's it. So, @"3017amen", you want to argue for 'em, or agin' 'em? I'm ambidextrous. Or do you want us to do them for you?
June 26, 2020 at 01:21
There you go again with them facts an' stuff. :up:
June 26, 2020 at 01:18
Noticed that. @"jamalrob" was the most recent, so i've included him. Straight to god!
June 26, 2020 at 01:02
ah - might work. I'll try it.
June 26, 2020 at 00:54
There's also somewhat urgent Mod attention needed, here.
June 26, 2020 at 00:52
What about a link for reporting issues directly to Mods - How do I share an abusive PM so that the perp can be dealt with?
June 26, 2020 at 00:50
:rofl: Me, too What is EOG? Do you have a recipe, perhaps?
June 26, 2020 at 00:02
It's the religious who do that.
June 26, 2020 at 00:01
For fuck's sake.
June 25, 2020 at 23:59
...and therefore, god is dark matter? What is it that we are supposed to conclude? What justifies your "~3 billion years" if it is not mentioned in th...
June 25, 2020 at 23:31
Again, bullshit. Now if you like, go to, say, the Stanford Encyclopaedia, choose a few pages at random, and do a search for "god". Given one would exp...

I certainly am. :rofl:
June 25, 2020 at 23:11
I'm terrified.
June 25, 2020 at 23:09
Arck, my bad . It's Speech acts, a table on pp 66-7.
June 25, 2020 at 23:08
Well, there is a case in point right in front of us, with the posts here from @"3017amen". A made-up statistic, chosen for it's appearance. Amen is no...
June 25, 2020 at 23:04
Yeah, I'm a bit pissed at bad philosophy. Like when someone lays claim to a statistic and when challenged shifts the burden of proof. I've yet to see ...
June 25, 2020 at 22:51
Why does entropy work backwards for living systems? It doesn't. Living systems are not closed.
June 25, 2020 at 22:48
Sure. But take care - trying to see the world from the perspective of such a twisted view might do permanent damage. :wink:
June 25, 2020 at 22:47
Pfff. What bullshit (using the word in the technical sense). 99% of statistics are made up on the spot.
June 25, 2020 at 22:45
Not sure what you are asking here, but if you are after a list of the logical requirements for asking question, Searle does an excellent job in his In...
June 25, 2020 at 22:42
Divine command theory is Risible. It falls immediately and irredeemably to the Euthyphro.
June 25, 2020 at 22:39
The JTB account derives from the Theaetetus. Socrates works through various definitions of knowledge, eventually reaching an impasse. Justification - ...
June 25, 2020 at 22:34
Philosophy of religion is a good place to start doing philosophy, but a bad place to stay. One can learn much about the methods and history of philoso...

Not unexpected. The Dunning-Kruger effect was firmly on display.
June 25, 2020 at 22:11
That reeks of private language... I was actually thinking, not of a question that had been thought but not spoken, so much as a question that had not ...
June 25, 2020 at 22:09
Yep.
June 25, 2020 at 14:40
Well, there you go; God disappeared all the antimatter. God Certainly Exists
June 25, 2020 at 10:38
I hadn't noticed this: Yea, it is risible.
June 25, 2020 at 08:51
No, but we might get significant grounds for dismiss divine command theory from the Euthyphro.
June 25, 2020 at 08:06
:grin: He's yet another budding John Galt.
June 25, 2020 at 07:35
Telling me of your mental state is utterly pointless. Can you address the objections? If not, then you are of no use here. Ah, a far more erudite and ...
June 25, 2020 at 07:31
It pleases me that you could see the import: the irrelevance of the word objective.
June 25, 2020 at 07:26
:grin:
June 25, 2020 at 06:10
Sweet.
June 25, 2020 at 05:58
Why not? Is the opinion that slavery is OK not wrong? Yep. Hence, the failure of the OP's conjecture.
June 25, 2020 at 05:55
Well, if it is an unexpressed question, ipso facto it is a question...
