Yes, it is; but, not in the way you portrayed it as possessing the quality of being "endless".
June 07, 2019 at 16:22
But, here we go with that psychological fatalism. The endless suffering is just a fiction. Don't you agree?
June 07, 2019 at 16:19
Well, not to troll you; but, it's that kind of attitude that leads to this outcome.

To go off on the extreme. She seems to have pigeonholed herself into that decision. And, when you have a suicidal patient that disregards all potentia...

I suggest some time spent in my Happy Videos thread https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/4739/happy-videos/
June 07, 2019 at 14:57
Yeah, so under that psychological assessment, then doesn't this lead to the conclusion that she was non compos mentis?
June 07, 2019 at 14:06
The answer to the question, in my opinion, lies within the field of pragmatics, which eventually became a field of science from the womb of philosophy...

Awesome possum. Looking forward to any new topics of yours.

Haha, you either love him or hate him, I suppose. And by love, I mean intense adoration. Have a look: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/3558/o...

What are your thoughts about Ludwig Wittgenstein? You'll find his name dropped around here like crazy.

So, what's on your mind as of late in terms of philosophy? I loved Walden Two by B.F. Skinner, in my youth; but, thought it would only apply to places...

Q.E.D. Unless it's philosophy, right?

We should start a new category called "The Shamanic View of Mental Illness." Would do pretty well, I think. Anyway, bedtime didn't work as planned, so...

Are you serious?
June 06, 2019 at 10:27
"Negligible support" would still provide resistance. The collapse we see cannot be due to a column failure, or a few column failures, or a sequence of...
June 06, 2019 at 10:17
Then explain how that is possible?
June 06, 2019 at 10:06
Wow, so we're actually going to argue over this ... It's bedtime for me so I'm reluctant to get too excited; but, how did WTC7 collapse at free-fall a...

Yes, tries and wallows to sleep. It's just an insult to intelligence to assume all three buildings fell due to fires. Yeah, there was a third building...

So, it's been almost 18 years and I'm still a 9/11 skeptic... Ehh.

Psychoceramics.

Well, just doing some fantasizing and the whole thing could potentially pay off for itself by leasing satellites to NATO allies... Hmm.

I don't see how more virtuous you can be by feeding off the empathy of YouTube by feeding feral kittens and making millions while doing it. *Wallows*

I see we are digressing here... I'm gonna go wallow now. See you guys in 8.

Uhh, @"ernestm", what about China? I don't think the US wants an escalation with China, do they?
June 04, 2019 at 13:58
What specifically are you concerned about? IP logging, private messages, or ownership of phil-material posted under your account?
June 04, 2019 at 13:55
Tell Wallows what? That the SDI was a hoax to bankrupt the Soviets? Because that's all I'm getting from @"ernestm"'s logic hereabouts.

June 04, 2019 at 13:26
Yeah, I was wondering how they intend to power these weapons by air-combat defense systems... Secrets unknown.
June 04, 2019 at 13:24
Huu? It's a defence measure, not an offensive one. And, the more SDI's the better for peace and prosperity.
June 04, 2019 at 13:18
Got pretty emotional at the end of the Chernobyl series. Ehh, more stuff like that plz.

I find it hard to believe that laser systems are in some way inferior to conventional chemical-based munitions. It's like comparing an electric car to...
