This sort of argument strategy you are using, if it was taken serious by a court or an authority figure could basically make nothing matter in terms o...

One of the things i was saying earlier is regardless of whether hypothetically we were similar in feeling/awareness or whether we were drastically dif...

I think people who are overworked tend to believe in freewill. I also believe (not in every case) that people who believe in free will are more likely...

Would you agree that feeling or awareness is astronomically more needed for life than flight or walking on 2 legs? If we can't agree on the basics, we...

Basically you would be arguing that one of us quite possibly has a drastically different degree of feeling or awareness? Given the quote from the OP a...

123 or possibly 159. Not sure which but its definitely one of those. lol. Great argument on your part, do i really have to find an article to answer t...

To be fair, i would argue Solipsists is a common problem for people who rise to the top and for whatever reason lack alot of relationships. Perhaps th...

actually i was thinking about what you said, and i believe that i need to put more thought into my argument. Perhaps (perhaps) we can continue this di...

If you agree that bacteria and viruses have feeling or awareness, at what point does the bacteria gain feeling or awareness given the fact that most i...

In regards to the last question, if you and i have consciousness, that would prove right there that it is not a solipsistic theory. At this point in m...

Why do you and i have feeling/awareness? Does a bacteria or virus have some form of feeling or awareness? Does a fish have some form of feeling or awa...

You would agree you and i have feeling/awareness correct? Most philosophers would agree some animal below us that evolved from another animal, that th...

That was what the OP was implying. Did you see my previous posts or do you want me to repost them? Many modern scientists embrace pan-psychism for sim...

I think people who believe in free will tend to be more creative in their solutions but i don't believe free will is logical. I believe people who bel...

Ok. You might be playing games but as long as you claim not to believe in free will, i'll let it go. People should make good decisions because we are ...
July 07, 2020 at 00:10
I think you want to believe in free will. The only way free will exists is by some cosmic miracle. Free will is a desire of people who want pseudo-god...

How is it inarticulate? You know full well what is meant and most people can understand it. Why don't you want to understand what i wrote? Are you hon...

Are you a Gnostic Christian or a Naturalist? You sound much more like a Naturalist than a Gnostic Christian.
