Silent Obliteration
Where is my post about rage and lust, and Harvey Weinstein? How many of my threads have been silently destroyed?

Re: What is love?
It's difficult to separate love from beauty. To be bound through genuine favoring, is to love what is beautiful. Yet, to move in the sphere of what is one's own, is to love. Ergo, the most ugly and excessively vicious child is a mother's own, and so is often the thing loved.

Re: An argument against materialism
It is interesting to speak of a useless trait. However, is it useless? I'm not sure Epiphenominalism can not mean something else, i.e., that the awareness and the physical state are two sides of the same coin. Ergo, the movement of the atoms, and the agent, are the same thing, we are the determinati...

Re: Presumed guilty until proven innocent
People blame Trolls for their difficulties, but what does harm is the human. When Trolls stir the cauldron of human confusion, and gather all the apathetic materials of their blanched bloodless hearts into a conflagration which licks the inside of their foul beings with the dark malignity of Tartaru...

Re: Is it safe to assume anything in philosophy?
To, perhaps, assume that one must think with all newness and sharpness everything one thinks, each time it is thought, including what is herein experienced as thinking in this sentence. Only then will the perpetual pons asinorum swim in his erudition as what is indistinguishable from the view over t...

Re: Unstable stuff was at the beginning
“If that is true then there should exist a dynamical theory which time is an emergent phenomena within it.” Say you define time by using a ruler and a machine. The ruler measures points on a surface, and the machine tells you each time an atom lets off a quantum of radiation during its decay. Time ...

Re: Unstable stuff was at the beginning
“We still don't have a theory with time as an emergent property. I think that such a theory cannot exist. I am discussing this in another thread.” If time means the same thing as space, as in space/time, and we understand the so-called 'heat event' (the raw data from which various theories such as ...

Re: Argument of Sam Harris
How is it that you know what is not available to him? The concept of substance as it is used with regard to the Eucharist is not arcane, what is mysterious is the change of substance. Is this a courtroom game, like: “Is it impossible that he knows?” With the ploy that either way one must make a con...

Re: Philosophy as "Special Ed"
I've been more often scolded by the force of the gigantic popularity of the reverse claim, which crashes against the shore and shatters into pieces like a wave over the mediocre masses of humanity. That philosophy is elitist, practiced largely by elites historically, and that the ordinary hard-hande...

Re: Unstable stuff was at the beginning
Theory of BB does not claim to be a theory which explain the creation of time. It does in the sense of space-time, which is the only sense the claim of "Big Bang" deals with. And even if it didn’t the point would be the same in principle. “There is no time reference at which timeless God ...

Re: DIALOGUE OF THE TROLLS/ Re-post!
I will not answer, seeing as it is beneath a troll's dignity, a troll, and that means: one who utterly despises the essential mediocrity which is in the smell of the wretched human present in each vulgar human word humans tap out on their computer keyboards.

Re: Unstable stuff was at the beginning
This argument "cannot create at a specific moment" is empty since it speaks against what happens. One cannot put an arbitrary rule, non-contradiction, above what happens. Instead one should measure the rule by what is. Note, I appreciate the sense, out of nothing, i.e., where there is no t...
