  1. It's interesting, what you think is wise...
  2. Sure we can, survive... If that were true we'd have it already... The problem is, the wealthy can't imagine why it's a good idea to keep people alive with money to spend. 🙄
  3. You can't fake a detox...
  4. That's why we need an ex-smoker...
  5. What word would you have chosen? Perhaps we need an "Ex-smoker" to rally the troops (or spread the word); there's few more zealous in educating other's. Indeed, but since the current system, at least here, falls woefully short of the ideal; we could do worse than fall back to the word love, as an aim; it seems resistant to critical thinking, if applied correctly.
  6. Imagine that...
  7. Imagine that... 😉 It feels similar to the army of the righteously indignant, a legitimate feeling of being able to change what they find abhorrent, with little thought of the consequences. If we want to persuade them to change their intuitive understanding of our world; we, as a society have to stop trying to scare them into agreeing to a status quo, that only offers reduced privilege's. We are capable of critically thinking past the fear and TBH I'm not sure who should be taking the piss out of whom. 😵 Ditto with Trump and his ilk... Religion also offers heaven and a path to find it; But Hitler hates you.
  8. Because this model works in this one... 😉
  9. Indeed, FTFY FFS, is it so difficult to understand? Satan, is just a guy with a grudge... And you're a guy? Right???
  10. Maybe, you should try a little understanding before you condemn; otherwise you're just part of the problem...
  11. Then you know where you are, but not where you're going...
  12. Come on guy's, time to stop feeding it... 🤒
  13. The poor old rich people, imagine being accused of having enough...
  14. At what age, does the child learn?
  15. We're all human, hence the simplicity.
  16. It's really rather simple, a King Solomon type deal.
  17. I disagree, you've just presented an emotive case. The justice system, when working correctly, will overlook an emotive argument as it will necessarily prejudice any mitigation. One size has to fit all, if it's going to be fair to all; for instance in your case, the police will be highly motivated to exact revenge, if their "one size fits all" philosophy isn't to treat every suspect is innocent before they go to trial. Remember, revenge is not justice...
  18. That's why we have rehabilitation, coupled with incarceration; a serial theif is less likely to kill and more likely to be rehabilitated; a big difference....
  19. Does that mean we can touch, knowledge??? Little do you know... 😆
  20. Yeah, I get that impression too; philosophically, I'm back to why?
  21. I'm not sure anyone here believes maths is reality, it's just a convenient language to describe "a" reality... The same problems exist in philosophy (English, German, Swahili...) they all describe "a" reality. I fail to see how such a problem can be redressed; all we can do is, continue to eliminate the impossible.
  22. why? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deductive_reasoning Well, Sherlock what was impossible?
  23. OK, just in case you don't understand what gainsay means, I'll make one last attempt; you gave the same responce to each and every valid argument.
  24. You're just blindly gainsaying every valid point presented to you 🙄, this is a discussion site not a playground; I'll not be participating further.
  25. https://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/justice
