I am a bit confused by the statement that 'Black is not real, but a way of categorizing real things. Blue is real, however....' I understand about categorizing things. We have black cats, white cats, yellow cats and many others.
What I don't understand is why black is not real, but blue is. I...
I think the problem we have is what you, and what I define as 'real'. But I feel that is where most arguments start, because someone makes a statement based on their definition, and someone else holds a different definition. I define real as anything that can be defined. I do feel that there are...
You are right, science does not tell us, not to eat the sugar coated doughnut. Just that a person with a medical history of diabetes, it would not be good for you.
I am sorry, but I am not sure I am understanding what you are trying to tell me here. So forgive me if I get it wrong.
I think...
In my opinion most anything that can be defined, is real. Even thoughts internal to self.
The moment a thought is made it has become real. Before the thought, if no one had the thought before, it did not exist and would not be real. But as soon as it is formed within yourself, it is now...
From what I got from Jose Fly; was all he wanted was to know, yes, or no, if anyone considered themselves someone who agrees with Scientism. Because he has seen people being dismissed for that view. He wasn't looking for a discussion on Scientism. But it has become that and an place to insult...
Sorry, I thought it was all about FLUFF. Just was trying to help out by removing some fluff.
Now that I know it is about the Gears, I will concentrate on lubrication to protect those gears; not much I can do about the grinding on your gears.
But you can put a bit of sawdust in an old gearbox...
I think we could take some fluff out of this.
It really grinds me my gears when we people add needless fluff to words.
Just today, I've heard too much of that abomination.... "price point" whats wrong with just price not "price"?
And Methodology replacing "method"
Corrected:
It grinds me...
In religions that have a deity; you take the deity out of it; you have no religion, all we have left is humanism. In the Abrahamic religions what do you have if you take God out of it. You have already won the argument; the Bible is meaningless, just a book of stories, most stories in the Bible...
Hello, I see quite a few posts on Police incompetence, and many are going unanswered. I would be willing to discuss this with you, as I think you have something you would like to get across.
I have mixed feeling on policing. I do not support the defund the police movement. I would like to know...
Yes, glad to be back. Taking my time to get my feet wet and get back into the forums, but they sure have changed things here. Still a bit timid to get into anything to intense yet!
Weight in spoiler.
However, I say there are to many undefined variables. Like are they male or female? Are they highly self conscious of their weight, or slightly self conscious? etc. The answers to these questions would bring us to a probably question. What is the likelihood the 450 pounds...
I am in total agreement with everything you have said, except without the ambivalence. If an author writes a book, no word should ever be changed, except in some rare cases, like a syntax error or other minor mistake, that in no way changes the context or meaning of what was written. If someone...
There are a lot of variables to get an accurate answer, and there are many arguments on the length of day at any given time. But one theory puts it at about 6 hours. The earth is slowing a little bit every year.
I think he is not in favor of a formal government. There are a few places in the Bible to support that I feel. I will post 1 Samuel 8 below.
Samuel 8:
1-2 Samuel had two sons. The older one was Joel, and the younger one was Abijah. When Samuel was getting old, he let them be leaders at...
I have to go to work, so do not have much time to check my own knowledge on this or give it much thought. My first feeling on this is yes, it can be in a scene. The speed of light is about 300,000km/s in a vacuum. However, through a diamond it is about half this speed. Meaning light would bunch...
No, I don't think so. The bible has not been against sex in marriage for the most part. I think he feels he could do more by working for the Lord without having to care for a family also. He could stay more focused.
Now that is my opinion, so don't go quoting me, saying Paul thinks this or that...
