There might be many imaginings of who Gary Childress is. But only one will still be right. Are you sure only one interpretation of who I am is "right"? Whether it is or not will have zero impact on who Gary Childress actually, objectively is. If I'm wrong in my opinion, the fault lies wit...

There are many interpretations of the divine. There might be many imaginings of who Gary Childress is. But only one will still be right. Are you sure only one interpretation of who I am is "right"? I mean someone might think I'm a jerk and someone else might think I'm wonderful. Going bac...

We are not told. I'm not as distracted by the bible as you,... "Distracted"? You asked me a question of Biblical import, one that only God could answer. There are many interpretations of the divine. So which interpretation should we all utilize when we talk about what is moral and what is...

Who the hell even cares? I do. I care about whether or not humanity faces mass destruction, whether at the hands of environmental degradation or else through our insane tendencies for war. I don't because the matter is outside of my control. Do you care enough about living to look before crossing a...

Strange, I wouldn't wish nuclear destruction on anyone. Whatever god accepts you into its "heaven" I want no part of. Who the hell even cares? I do. I care about whether or not humanity faces mass destruction, whether at the hands of environmental degradation or else through our insane te...

How does all that technology work if no one is paying any taxes for infrastructure to use it? Everybody pays for his ferry ticket. Why would some taxpayer somewhere have to pay for someone else's ferry trip? Keep the bullshit of the West to the West. We really do not need that bullshit here. I like...

Is there anything more disgusting and hideous than what Christian morticians do to dead bodies. Infusing us with toxic chemicals and throwing us into the ground for a prolonged rot over centuries like plastic bottles? I'd like to be cremated or recycled by the natural food chain. Thoughts? Uummm......

You think that the people living around you enjoy living in poverty and 3rd world conditions. I mean, if they want to stay in poverty, then don't complain about poverty. However, I suspect they'd probably welcome modern conveniences. I'm writing this from my mobile phone, while sitting in the ferry...

I agree with Age's point that if there is a "multiverse" then the totality of all multiverses is, by definition, the universe. Even a dumb "hick" like me isn't as stupid as you are. What a joke. Spend all your life studying abstractions of math and you can't even see what's in f...

What do you mean by words are equivalent?

They both refer to "everything". Or does the multiverse not include everything?

Ok you don't know what "topics" are. Hmm

I don't speak French either. Maybe I need a translator?

Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. If the words are equivalent, then what difference does it make? What do you mean by words are equivalent? They both refer to "everythin...

Usually, everything = multiverse. I see. What if I refer to everything as the "universe", am I wrong to call it that? Maybe you don't know what a "topic" is. So when I say stuff like "multiverse topic", you don't know how to separate that from other stuff. If the words...

In multiverse topics, "universe" doesn't mean absolutely everything. Which part of this escapes your understanding? Then what do you call everything? Just "everything"? Usually, everything = multiverse. I see. What if I refer to everything as the "universe", am I wrong...

Not considering hypothetical extensions to the world we see, is the end of philosophy, but of course idiots like this one don't even understand this much I'm sure you're not an idiot. You're probably very intelligent. You just need to get terminology straight. And it's not your fault. So don't be h...

Just fuck off Poor thing. Whatever you want, dude.

You're probably very intelligent. You just need to get terminolo...
