  1. The god of the gaps argument in reverse, one day the money I spend will be worth spending...
  2. All humans are human and uniquely mapped genetically, which makes us both the same and different; it's our life experience that sorts the wheat from the chaff... I'm not sure what logical fallacy that is, perhaps a non sequitur; I'm sure some of the more learned membership can put a name too it. What God/creator have you had direct contact with, to be so sure he/she/it exists? My money is on <insert religion here>... If you agree that the bible's of this world is written by humans, and I'm sure you have (if not in this thread), then the guidance and truth you seek is from your human sibling's... BTW what religion is your favoured flavour? Because the answer's across your thread's, is very contradictory. 😇 It is, unfortunately people get in the way... That goes for politicians too, the only difference is, politicians only want it for themselves; so they twist a truth into a lie or a lie into a truth; they're not interested in teaching for the greater good...
  3. This is just a rehashing of the old question, "if a tree falls in the forest and no one's there to hear it, does it make a sound?". You're over thinking it... It depends on who's doing the thinking, for instance: A trained philosopher/scientist would, probably, score the highest, because they're fully aware of the potential that their own bias can skew the answers. A drunken Trump supporter mid-rant would, probably, score the lowest... The rest of us are somewhere in between...
  4. It usually takes a war, of some sort, and it's always a better outcome without guns.
  5. Why do you think I wear a tin foil hat; hint, it's not a bike...
  6. It's not all about guns, sometimes a paper cut is more painful...
  7. The thing is, here in blighty were only 25 steps behind that culture and 'the coming storm' will affect us all; we can't blame the culture we're apart of, only the value we put on revenge...
  8. Perhaps he meant the observable universe, you know these student's, some of them miss a word or two. And??? The only problem is, as with all complex signal's they degrade with distance and so become indiscernible from the background noise, at some point; if so it is entirely supernatural to somehow see the object...
  9. We haven't had a discussion with the OP...
  10. You seem easily confused 😕, I haven't misspelled/mistaken humilty for humanity, but you have; I'm not sure what's ambiguous, please explain. I didn't think your post deserved a +1, it's not a downvote, think of it as redressing the balance...
  11. Nope. But you have... 😉 Let's at least give him/her/it the chance to explain themself, who knows it might be interesting.
  12. What's the point of humility?
  13. Indeed, McCarthy did a splendid job of introducing a Trump...
  14. I wonder which species of bacteria is responsible for which food is brainworthy...
  15. Maybe it's just dancing around on boot up, trying find a datum point.
  16. Think of a gyroscope, in the 80's it was proposed that 2 opposing gyroscope's could be used as propulsion, but it's only an apparent force because it just follows the path it's forced to travel.
  17. If it's a human thing, maybe it's based on the number of knuckles we have on one fingure, i.e. one, two, many. with a fist over the top...
  18. It's a shame though, he's clearly intelligent and with, it seems, a good deal of knowledge; he could be a valuable member of our community, if his boredom could be directed more positively.
  19. I think you need to learn a lot more philosophy, because your understaning of logical fallacy is fundamentally flawed. Or your deliberately trolling... Have a nice day... 😇🙏
  20. We human's are so vane, that someone could imagine that a life in a bunker could be a life worth living...
  21. I'd have been happy with that answer, it's a very good reason. However he seems determined to find excuses to dodge legitimate questions, rather than get caught in a rational cul-de-sac.
  22. Instead of resurrecting long dead thread's that should be left in peace; please start one of your own, so we can get a better handle on your position as regards religion/philosophy and the flavour you favour.
  23. Nothing bores me more than excuse over reason... 😉
  24. Exactly, I smell a troll...
  25. That's just an excuse to not answer my question, so I'll ask again. "What is the reason you care so much about something no-one has accused you of"?
