Truth be said, if I didn't know the answer already as I mentioned in {N}, I wouldn't start this thread in the first place. I liked hearing how others ...

Let us remember that If a person mentions someone or something, it doesn't imply that he knows him or it well. For example, anyone can say "God exists...

Then, where would be the fun of thinking :(
October 23, 2020 at 12:00
You surprise me. I can't figure out how JUST being aware (before going into details) of such a 'Will' makes a human less rational and/or realistic. An...
October 23, 2020 at 11:52
We like it or not, a human may have the free-will to decide about ONE thing only, at best: A human is free to follow his pre-programmed instincts of s...

Should a robot perceive his maker to live and play the roles for which it was made? Indeed all non-human living beings are supposed to act exactly lik...
October 23, 2020 at 04:31
My problem is that I can't accept blindly any idea (scientific or spiritual) provided by another. So yes, I have a personal view of existence (mine an...
October 23, 2020 at 04:12
I am afraid that if I wasn't forced to exist in this life first, there would be no gift to be offered and also no meaning/sign of what I call 'myself'...
October 22, 2020 at 20:38
Let me agree with you on what you said... concerning my first birth :) I mean by 'my first birth' when the world received me as a human baby. But this...
October 22, 2020 at 20:12
In a sense, you are right. Every living being, human or non-human, is important for the continuity of the structure that you referred to as 'organism'...
October 22, 2020 at 18:54
After reading your comments, it seems to me, so perhaps I am wrong, you have no alternatives about what I said (unless they are supposed to be your se...
October 22, 2020 at 09:28
You are right and this is why I summarized the start of my existence, in the least, by saying... I was forced to exist the way I am. What remains to d...
October 22, 2020 at 09:16
Perhaps I will understand the practical meaning of your version about 'existence and non-existence' if I will be born again :D
October 22, 2020 at 00:29
You are right.This is equivalent to 'being forced to accept life at it is, at birth'. :) The facts in the world are just facts. A fact could be seen g...
October 22, 2020 at 00:19
What?!!! But you are right if you mean formal Christians, not just Christians, because the formers have doctrines which are much like of Muslim's ones...
October 21, 2020 at 22:07
After all, you know about your existence more than I do. In my reality, I am even forced :) to also exist many times in a dream realm (not limited by ...
October 21, 2020 at 20:39
You are on topic indeed. You present another path that leads to {G} and {F} above.
October 21, 2020 at 10:38
Thank you for the invitation. But I may not be able to watch the video... let me say for technical reasons.
October 21, 2020 at 10:27
It happens that I am a rational scientist. So when I heard the definition of straight lines, I didn't ask myself where they start and end. I simply ad...
October 21, 2020 at 10:18
I am sorry that you are not aware that my parents were just a tool, not the Will which is behind my existence (and their existence as well). Parents h...
October 21, 2020 at 09:38
I am sorry that you see yourself in the dark about this. I wasn't born in the light of knowledge either. In fact, by design, the common weakness with ...
October 21, 2020 at 09:04
On my side, I don't say I create my own reality. I say instead I discover my own reality (of my being and the world I live in). While I walk under the...
October 20, 2020 at 23:35
Sorry, did I say that every living being is supposed to perceive 'IT'? Just the contrary, zillion of beings are supposed just to follow their instinct...
October 20, 2020 at 23:23
I can agree with you on all what you said excluding Yoga on which I have no idea (I just heard of it in movies :) ) It took me 30 years to stop seeing...
October 20, 2020 at 15:09
You are right. But do you have a clear idea of what kind of truths in such religions (or whatever they are called) a truth-seeker may be interested to...
October 19, 2020 at 17:56
You said well in case the end purpose of one's existence is to serve life in the world as all other non-human living things are created for this same ...
October 19, 2020 at 17:21
Just to be sure I got what you said. A totally independent person who doesn't join any other believers in their religious gatherings (usually known as...
October 19, 2020 at 16:35
In your turn, you amended it well :up:
October 19, 2020 at 03:52
To be good, believers obey the rules of a religious formal system. To be good, followers, supporters, citizens and patriots obey the rules of a civil/...
October 19, 2020 at 01:06
About the Golden Rule, does any religion/culture, you heard of, precede it with what Jesus said? The greatest first advice of Jesus that is addressed ...
October 19, 2020 at 00:41
From what you say, it seems, in your knowledge, it is possible that someone, other than Jesus, said clearly that a rich man cannot, even if he wants t...
October 19, 2020 at 00:24
Sorry for upsetting you. You have the right to be a dreamer. I am talking about reality and how things run in the world, we like it or not. If you can...
October 19, 2020 at 00:02
You are right, because having faith is the 'prerequisite' to discover (or arrive to) something. So while I was at school, I had faith in math (besides...
October 18, 2020 at 23:54
Sorry, I personally have no reason to judge anyone. I just live with others the way they are. But I also understand that most people in the world have...
October 18, 2020 at 23:28
Well, I witnessed certain years in which the flu killed in my country not less than 1 of 100 while about half the population (50%) were affected by it...
October 18, 2020 at 22:59
You are totally right. Even some atheists have faith to defend at any cost exactly as some believers of a doctrine do. This is life, we like it or not...

You too, thank you. You may like reading this: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/462404

I personally read it (based on my various experiences in life and my personal observations on the ground for many decades): people who are not conside...
October 18, 2020 at 22:34
You are right in this. I am not Christian, but nor Gnostic as well. Being a man of reason, I don't have faith in the first place. It happens that the ...
October 18, 2020 at 21:14
Yes, also in these days, one is seen good by his ruling system (anywhere on earth) if he believes in the 'worldwide' propaganda concerning the world's...
October 18, 2020 at 16:43
But the period of time for which they hid is 40 days, not 30 or 50 :) These 40 days have their particular meaning anywhere on earth. Did I say the exi...
October 18, 2020 at 16:22
I am afraid that if someone 'now' believes what Jesus says because of his miracles (which happened) then he is ready to believe 'at the same level' wh...
October 18, 2020 at 15:46
The miracles of Jesus, including the resurrection of his body, were very important for the early apostles and disciples only. Jesus knew in advance th...

You are right in this :) By the way, do you think I am exaggerating or imagining things in: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/461664 T...
October 18, 2020 at 07:53
Should someone be aware of all what happened in history? No one can deny that the best tool by which the powerful rich families (the world's Elite) ar...

Even at work, I don't base my designs 'blindly' on any work done by someone else. And every time I had a chance to discover a novel solution (in elect...

Do you mean that on has to think of 'OTHERS'physics?! It happens that the only object/device under test that I can be sure that the results of any tes...
