Re: Prince's Evangelical Obsession
Diebert made a good point. Refer to it, study what he has said, and throw away your conspiracy books because the excitement you derive from those outlandish half-truths makes the basics of reasoning seem boring to you. Oh barf, the evil and ego stroking that happens on this forum is deplorable. Whe...

Re: Prince's Evangelical Obsession
Carl, Similar? This is so general as to be useless for the purpose of the argument. And incoherent besides, birds not being a species, but a genus comprised of many species, some of which can fly and some which cannot. Again Carl, you miss my entire point. It is irrelevant whether my hypothetical e...

Re: Prince's Evangelical Obsession
Most of the birds in my province are able to fly. This is fairly specific and not general. We would still need to define 'most' and qualify 'able' but it is a step up from many of your usual sweeping statements implying 'all'. birds as a species are similar around the world, Similar? This is so gen...

Re: Prince's Evangelical Obsession
Ryan, I don't think I or anyone else should need to infer what you mean. Not on a regular basis, anyway. You defend your sloppy expression and lack of 'editing' like it doesn't matter how you say things. It does. Words are all we have here on a written messageboard. And logic is specific (despite yo...

Re: Prince's Evangelical Obsession
Ryan,
Most is a word you rarely employ. All is a word you frequently use or imply. Most may not be generalization. All usually is a generalization. Your aphorisms and assertions are often unrealistically broad, thus have little to do with logic, and represent faulty reasoning.

Re: Kevin's Video on Ownage.
You're saying enlightened people should not say what they are? Why not? Perhaps you feel it should be like the custom of some Native Americans, where a shaman does not refer to himself as such; it is for others to say that he is a shaman. In this case other enlightened persons. A unenlightened perso...

Hey, Tomas. Fuck the ignore button. That's not what this place is about. It's about logic, and part of that is pointing out delusion. If that comes across to you as being a hardass, so be it.

"You Can't Blink"
You can't blink.
You have to be wired
In a way of being
So committed to the mission,
The mission that we're on,
Reform of this country,
And victory in the war,
You can't blink.
So I didn't blink.

So, Skip, your philosophy is basically, "I'm a slave but we all are slaves, so might as well enjoy it to the max"?

I didn't see him doing that. Perhaps I should view it again. Surely unconscious people would not be watching that video, so I'm not sure what you mean.

To me the point and the video are trite. It is like saying an unconscious man is interested in pancakes and a conscious one is interested in wisdom. So what.

Conscience is another word for morality. You know that's totally relative and subjective, right That's debatable. It's not a given.
