Quotes are part of your religion; you and Tim use them to bury objections, not to address them. Quotes are not arguments. If you are in agreement with...

You have nothing but ad hominem attacks? "You mother wears army boots" and "My Daddy is a policeman"? Where's your logic, man!? Operating in this way ...

Might be so. https://chatgpt.com/s/t_6893ead2b2448191918a398bb89f8439 Unverified - might be confabulation. Of course the main critique of that approac...

Sure, all that. How does that look from outside that milieu?

Seems we may just have spread the infection to the Shoutbox. My apologies, for my part, in advance.

Incidentally, since selfish and came up together, again, I'd like, again, to thank Un for what is in my humble opinion the funniest joke on the histor...

That's sort of what Geach is trying to do, to invent a logic that will give a consistent account of intransitivity. It's legitimate if the goals is ac...

Proud to Be Woke: Why I Refuse to Apologise There's plenty of similar stuff around. A book by a comedian might not be an ideal start to a philosophy t...

's usual attack on the messenger rather then the message. Tedious. @"Wayfarer" presented the diagram as an explanation of the Trinity. I'm just pointi...

Yep. Further, transitivity is essential to set theory; it's a fundamental result of extensionality. Set theory is a mystery to some. I don't think 's ...

Shellfish are very popular here, especially prawns. I'd prefer a good piece of fish. Crab is good but generally too much fiddling to make it worth the...

And good for 'regularity'.

Thanks for sharing this. Yeah, that thread is an odd animal. Not sure what is going on there.

Yep. Pretending that it is coherent when it plainly isn't. I'd be happy for you to give a different account of "is" that will satisfy the criteria you...

Well, no.

Just noticed this. Here Tim claims significant similarity: "...all of creation reflects the Creator, and thus the triadic similarity shows up even in ...

It's very hard to see what you are trying to do here, or how it might help your case. I had presumed you would be seeking to defend trinitarian dogma,...

@"Sam26", do you at some stage consider what it is that survives death?

Is "burj" supposed as an example of a qual? I'd understood that a qual was this sensation, here, now, present to me... that sort of thing. That the qu...

I doubt I can improve on 's reply, but since seemed to have trouble with transitivity, I'll throw in a bit more. A relation is transitive if, for that...

Nice.

Yes, that's a much clearer approach than a reliance on the merely physical.

Snowploughs? What'r they?

I didn't say your argument was pseudo-logic. I said Peirce's was a pseudo-logic. But analogically reasoning cannot be put into deductive form without ...

It'd require it's own thread. For Davidson, while mental events are identical to physical events, there are no strict laws governing mental events in ...

The east end of London, perhaps.

Pointy tools commonly used to make and repair shoes. Rhymes with...

The point concerning analogically reasoning is that it is invalid - one is not obligated to accept the conclusion of an analogical argument, in the wa...

good night.

:gasp:

I don't remember...

Noticing the bass in both those songs. Waters is pretty accomplished. Bit of a prick, of course, but not a bad musician. He made sarcastic bass playin...

You're a bit slow today. Hangover?

Ever listened to the next song on the album? Might be worth it, given your response. It's called "Sheep". Goes like this... https://www.youtube.com/wa...

...they showed their worth sooo clearly during the Global Financial Crisis... More pigs in antique Pop Culture, in the same vein: Pigs - three differe...

I very much appreciated your rendering this in terms of aesthetics.

Here's the unused verse: The Orwellian reference should be clear. We might all do well to re-read Animal Farm, and reconsider any supposed porcine inn...

I'm reluctant to say much more. @"Hanover" and I have had this chat before, but it repeats, like not-quite-right fish. I don't think Hanover has quite...

Very proud of her new boots.

Not just art.

Curious. I'm in a discussion about the present nadir of quality threads. In desperation I even contributed to the Shoutbox.

Jack adopted this form of life. To be fair, when a kitten he was hit by a car or bike and lost for a few weeks, only to be found emaciated and wounded...

That a simple puzzle such as this can go for twelve pages explains so much about the forums.

Beautiful sows and a goat. https://i.ibb.co/jvpMt83t/J5dn-WXXj-RSg.png

I know. I think it's incumbent on the audience to recompense deserving artists. They gotta make a livin' too.
