How does one attain this state of mind, oh wise one? :cool:

:sweat:

I'm telling you its early stage dementia. I doubt he consults his ideas against any advisers.

The structure of an atomic fact is something contingent: it is the fact that its constituent objects are actually combined in the way they are. The at...

And finally, 2.0211 If the world had no substance, then whether a proposition had sense would depend on whether another proposition was true. 2.0212 I...

Think about it in Kantain terms. There cannot be objects or facts or things without logical space.

2.025 It is form and content. The thinking here is something like this. There must be something common, something constant across all possible alterna...

By extension doesn't it apply to all formal systems? I'm sorry; but, asking for proof would be a monumental task.

2.021 Objects form the substance of the world. Therefore they cannot be compound. 2.024 Substance is what exists independently of what is the case. A ...

Substance.

Glad you're back. It's a crapshoot. Do you think we need a companion to help guide us? As I'm reading the Routledge one provided in the first page of ...

Sorry, @"Srap Tasmaner"; but, I'm at a loss here as what to say. I'm reading the companion provided by another member here, that seems to clarify all ...

Thanks, @"mcdoodle" sent his regards too. Hehe.

Yes, but, when one goes about trying to prove truths within any sufficiently complex formal system, then one will run into cases where such proofs are...

Yes, that was the question. I'm not sure how one goes about proving or surmising it. Hence, why I brought up Godel. Is this one of those, whereof one ...

Yes, it's a meaningless claim to make in totality due to Godel's Incompleteness Theorems. I think.

One thought that bugs me is that if Godel disproved the internal consistency of any finite logical system to be self proving, and thus requires extra-...

Yes, I take it as internally consistent here, and if that follows, then true and valid. Yes, there is, what's your point? According to the instrumenta...

It ain't the same America you grew up in or where you grew up. Take that as empirical evidence if you'd like.

Not entirely objective; but, rational enough to not fall into a highly exploitable trait that Republicans seem to posses of being frightened of big go...

Hmm, if a moderator could please re-include "Monism" into the poll, for some reason it got left out. Thanks.

I'm not silencing anyone here, Hanover, common. I'm just stating the fact that you keep on bringing that fact up as if it was some punchline itself se...

At this point you can only consider pointing out that fact as tantamount to trolling...

Uhh, hurr durr, the mayor of London is an Muslim that hates me, durr.

Ooo, gotta hold him to his word for once. Let's see how that pans out.

I wanna see Trumpo pull a fake news on this one. It also is good due to being right before his meeting with Putin.

Most likely, I think.

Yeah, but no allegations of Americans aware they were cooperating with Russian GRU military personnel...

We must go back to the island, Jack!

Put down the crack pipe.

You know, no matter how small a piece of shit may be in your soup, it's still a piece of shit in your soup.

Jebus, Trump really smeared one into Mays face today, didn't he?

:vomit:

Seems like one of those things you do in a sense of absolute hopelessness in regards to a situation. Just drink your way out of a problem.

The suburban life is really different here in Thousand Oaks where every other car is a Maserati or high end BMW or sone such. It's further up there if...

Perhaps, but I digress.

Laughs ensue.

Why not? Aren't you making an over-generalization here?

Totally unrelated but Juncker is drunk as f*ck during the NATO summit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKC_EeA4LUU

Would you say that people prefer moral relativism and with it nihilism than be responsible for anyone or anything? Why is that?

Interesting take on this question. But, essentially I think you are right. So, was Jesus in the right again to ask Paul to go back to Rome and face cr...

Stick to his values. Good one.

Good, I'm waiting for my liquid nicotine (vape juice) to arrive tomorrow morning so I can vape some more. The emo posts are fine too. :yum:

:beer: for @"Noble Dust"

=[ :cry:

What do you mean by this? Running away from what exactly?

Well, then there's really no way to deny or affirm this. It seems like a metaphysical statement. Yes, possible.

I honestly got teary reading about Mary...
