Re: Evolution is False
Greylorn; Please consider my following responses. Gee, Let's see. Last response from you on another thread in which I tried to assist you with computer glitches, was to be called a "shit" for introducing concepts that I happen to believe are valid. Well, thank you, Gracious Bitch. Tweaked you, did I...

Re: Evolution is False
WanderingLands; Hello Gee - thank you for your insights, especially bringing reincarnation into the issue and even talking about how pigs were used for medicine and the question of genetic similarities with humans. You are very welcome. I enjoy a lot of your threads. You are a bit of a rebel, but at...

Re: Evolution is False
WanderingLands; I have been reading your very interesting thread off and on, and my computer is working at the moment, so I wanted to respond while I can. First I should state that I know little about evolution beyond the meaning of the word, and I have never studied it -- Darwinian or otherwise. Yo...

Re: Philosophy Now Forum Suggestions Box
Bill; Are you talking about the "thumbs up or down" or the "like or dislike" features on some forums? If so, then I would agree that the "like" feature is a good idea as it encourages people to write better posts, but the "dislike" part of that feature is often abused. The "dislike" part encourages ...

Re: Proof for Consciousness existing outside our brains
Marsh8472; You are confusing me. Your title states that you are interested in proving that consciousness exists outside of the brain, but your entire thread is about the brain. That is a lot like trying to prove that trees exist outside of the house by studying the sofa and the cutlery. I've been tr...

Re: Psychology foundation
Gee - Some of the philosophical counselors use the Socratic Method to help people find truth, and it is true that the Socratic Method is very much like Freud's analysis. But again, a person can lead you to a place where you need to go with their questions, or they can lead you to a place where they...

Re: Psychology foundation
It is true that science can not with any accuracy state where the mind is located, what it is made up of, or even prove that it exists, so of course, they would consider study of the mind as a soft science. What amazes me is that science does not seem to have any problem with using this 'soft scien...

Re: What form of discipline should be used at home?
You don't respect anyone who hits you. Quite the opposite. You might fear them, or be revolted by them, but never respect. Countries where it's illegal to hit your children: Vegetariantaxidermy; Consider that when a person says, "Show some respect!" or when they say, "Respect your elders.", they ar...

Re: Psychology foundation
HexHammer; It is true that many people believe that philosophy has outlived itself, even Steven Hawkins stated that philosophy is dead. This just goes to show that even the brightest minds can be wrong. Religion can not replace philosophy because it is more interested in faith than in truth. Scienc...

Re: Psychology foundation
Should one be well versed in psychology before doing philosophical counseling? Also what forms of philosophy would be most suitable for counseling purposes? PhilX Phil; I had never heard of 'philosophical counseling' and thought that you were making chit up. But no, it does exist. My first impressi...
