I think all people are philosophers. Some people just have better things to do with their time.

Not true. Our eyes interpret these frequency (our eyes and brains are radios and antennas at the same time) as colors. Your argument is silly, superfl...

Its a spectrum. As in any classification in order for something to be red it must fall between two lines (or fall within a specific area on a spectrum...

Don't attack Israel, Don't defend Israel. Move Israel to Canada or America.

overly restrictive zoning laws lead to war and poverty in the short term. War releases more co2 than anything.

What religion or philosophy grants all souls equality?

Well i disagree to a large extent that they are imaginary. Theres no use arguing over that aspect. As for hate, anger and hate are a spectrum. Its alr...

How would we prove this to be true either way. Why the use of the word apparently? I think chapter 4 of the book of Daniel (could be a different chapt...

Thats a good point. I would argue there would have to be some entity or set of entities that cannot explain why they behave the way they do. I believe...

Your assumption is that Einstein rejected all aspects of Newton's ideas on time. While he did change some things he didn't reject everything Newton be...

Even modern physicists very often don't believe that. Have you read "A brief history of time" (Stephen Hawkings"). What do you mean by self contained ...
