Re: White men, European genetics, masculinity and genius

Please do not consider your superiority a function of the color of your skin or your own deeds in this world. The rich and etablished needs to stay together to keep the mass of poor people on the other side, so they can take advantage of them and stay rich. This is how nature works. Who will over ti...

Re: Justice and Blame

In a way, animals (as distinct from humans) act far more rationally than man and deeply and thoroughly so, they do not immediately act on fear or presuppose that the world is worse than it is. Just imagine how great the blindness must be for an animal compared to a human. They do not immediately ac...

Everything is as it must be. Is this not the most terrible thought? Of course not.

Re: Help Calculating Probability of Mathematical Phenomenon

I'm only saying that it is a possibility and you have to take into account all the other possibilities to get a clearer and fuller view of the picture. What it would be connected to is up to the observer, but it would be bound in philosophy outside of the purely mathematical functions. This again is...

Well, it is interesting surely, with it being that simple forms of combination and the propensity with which small numbers come up and their shared commonhood in the gematria production. I'm glad you said how it worked, it is interesting indeed :). My guestimate (ie. something I might as well have p...

Re: Help Calculating Probability of Mathematical Phenomenon

I don't know. :) Sorry, that's an easy answer but it's the only one I can give. I'm not sure how the gematria produces numbers out of letters, but presumably it works from a defined system and is not a truly random number generator. In any case, it's general properties are defined (such as possible ...

Re: Help Calculating Probability of Mathematical Phenomenon

Well, that's a start :). Just saying you gotta define the things which you calculate probabilities for if you are going to get an actual number out of it. "out of all the days I was alive" is one start. I don't know how the sequence works for the gematri thing though, so that would probabl...

Re: Help Calculating Probability of Mathematical Phenomenon

Okay, I've looked through it now and tried following the argument and numbers in OP. In the end, you will have to define a set of possibilities to calculate a probability. There's no way around it. You have to define what other possible strings there are to exclude one of the strings from the set. I...

Re: Help Calculating Probability of Mathematical Phenomenon

Well, okay, right. I'm not sure what a gematria is, but if you want to calculate the probability of anything, as you probably know, you have to define the set and each possibility within each set. That's only logical way to calculate the chance of some occurence happening within a defined set of pos...

I don't know. One must realize one is part of this conception, in whichever world view one must fit oneself as included in the theory.
