Everything you have just typed with meaningless, thus I may not comment on it.

You just commented.

Your response is meaningless since it is relational.

And your response is relational as well...thus you comment on nothing and are just making noises.

The question of "one x or many x" boils down to a question of "the one and the many" and can be best expressed through the example of (a) line(s). ._._. observes a total of 3 lines: the 2 lines between each set of points and the 1 line between each end point. The 2 lines result i...

If the fact that 'the cat is on the mat' is not only a truth, but also something moral, and, moral judgements express values like 'good' and 'bad', what is the bad way of presenting the fact that 'the cat is on the mat'? Can there be a 'wrongness' about stating such a fact? If we say that either th...

To say nothingness exists is to say nothing exists. Nothingness cannot be proven/disproven as that would prove/disprove something. Nothing is absent of prove or disproof as the absence of proof or disproof is nothing. Considering nothingness is an absence of being, ie a void, to speak of nothingness...

1. Existence is relative as it is contextual. 2. The dependence of one context upon another context results in a chain of contexts. 3.

The relativity of naturalness being good or evil necessitates good/evil as existing within certain contexts thus existing absolutely because of sai...

Moral relativity leads to moral absolutism as things are justified according to context; outside of said context the phenomenon is unjustifiable. Depends on how you construe moral relativism. Some might argue that different factions interacting in different contexts out in particular worlds might h...

Acts which become historical only occur because in the coarse of said actions the actions preceding them where forgotten. History is the result of a bad memory.

So what? Is it possible to have two one singularities? How many of these so-called "singularities" are there, to you, EXACTLY? If you say so. But, just so you are AWARE what you are 'trying to' talk about, and allude to, can be explained and expressed in much SIMPLER and EASIER terms. But...

Gosh you seem to find so much meaning here!! Aren't you clever? FFS. You are not paying attention to what even you are saying. The comment that started this exchange was... 6. Relational truths mean nothing. To which I remarked upon the stupidity of the use of hyperbole. You have shot yourself in t...

Here are the two sentences in this article which create the flaw in the author's argument: "It's hard to see how these sensory qualities could be captured in the abstract, austere vocabulary of mathematics. How could an equation capture the taste of spicy paprika?" Stated baldly, the tast...

Is Moral Relativism Really a Problem? Psychological research suggests it is not By Thomas Pölzler at Scientific American Suppose you believe abortion is permissible. Would that belief alone make it so? No? Then how about if most Americans believed it? Would that suffice? If you think the answer to ...

Self forgetting is the manifestation of history as what becomes historical is that which was forgotten prior; history is the repetition of events as the forgetting of said repetition which paradoxically results in repetition. Nothing is new if everything is forgotten.
