Why?

I'm just trying to explain the blatant insanity I see over there. There can be few things as frightening as watching a great nation crumble.

What I find hardest to grasp is why Americans are so very, very frightened of their own government.

I suspect moving to another country is your best solution.

One of the best things I've read here for quite a while. Thanks. It is, indeed; but perhaps it is a start. I'm off to Sydney for a few days. I'll be g...

Ok, then - let's go back a few steps. Picture Newton universalising gravity, apples and all. Was that an act of induction? Can you explain how?

I can't find much here to disagree with you on. There remains a special place for deduction. If one has true premises and a valid argument then the tr...
