Obviously, only Tolkien knew about Frodo before he wrote LOTR, no? I don't see the point in NOT invoking epistemic logic into the discussion when thin...

I don't understand the title. If it's Fiction Logic within Free Logic, then aren't we committing ourselves to Epistemic Logic at this point to "conclu...

No, a boar is something else entirely. A hog is not a pig.

I'd call it the Hanukkah Festive Short Story Submission Thread.

A hog is a wild pig, of course. And, we both know this.

But, people change their beliefs all the time. So, what's the problem with saying that Buddhism is a belief about human nature?
November 17, 2021 at 21:09
A pig is just a pig. But, no, I haven't.
November 17, 2021 at 20:58
No, that's just a hypothesis about human nature, that Epicureanism or Stoicism suites people better, and hence the proof of the hypothesis cannot be d...

But, to believe that such a stipulation definition as true makes it a propositional attitude, in the least.
November 17, 2021 at 20:48
You know, if you really want to point out a fallacy, it would seem that whoever utters that Buddhism is realism, seems to suffer from a confirmation b...

If @"Hanover" gets a pig, that would be nice. His farm will truly prosper.

I mean, that a larger population of people seemingly prefer Epicureanism rather than Buddhism nowadays? Therefore, the masses decided what's best??

I have some criticisms against this. (Not gonna play devil's advocate here). And, I'll spell it out succinctly here. Why is Buddhism so realistic if S...

Do you remember when they used to put cane sugar instead of nasty corn syrup into soft drinks?

Bliss is associated with enkephalins and endorphins. So heaven is full of homeless people.

A pig is a pig until it is a wallowing pig. Likewise, a pig will eat, will shit, and will sleep until it wallows again.
