Well MozartLink, read through that bit of text you provided. Your "proof" has a fundamental flaw...you never defined what suffering really is. What is pleasure?

It is just blind leading the fools. It is better to be a fool than to be blind. Foolishness is a state of mind, retardcy is a state of mind, but it takes a miracle to heal the blind. By retardcy I do not refer to clinical retardation. That completely went over my head. Would you please explain it? ...

No, because wooden chairs are just as organic as the wood they were created from. Many chemicals are toxic, but are organic chemicals. What should be labelled as a hazard to health, should be labelled as toxic, no more no less. The current state of labeling just adds untruth, double-meanings, and c...

Did you write that piece? . Yes, thankyou, and you are welcome. I especially like how you use big lettering, many would sa...

Hi all, This is my first post :) I have been wondering this for some time. My question may be badly formuated, so apologies! Is there a word to differenciate two objects, one which is 'natural' and the other which has been constructed. i.e wood and chair? Although wood has intrinsic existence, a ch...
