Logic itself is the viciously recursive presupposition of morality. On the monist/reductionist world-view: everything that has ever happened from the beginning of time to this day is truth and truth alone. Nature is Nature. Everything that exists is fact. Only truth is possible in this universe. The...

I agree with a number of things he's said.

No way. Did hell freeze over?

It's your thread, and nobody agrees with what you've presented... right? Sooo... who else is it about? You are steering the dialogue so skilfully and intentionally towards me.

I guess your problem is that you don't know how to work with the concepts in a realistic and sensible way -- and that's why so many responses in this thread are disagreeing with you. I guess you missed the fucking point. You are the one repeatedly missing the points: Your thread makes no sense to a...

When we "identify two different things" and "say they are one thing", we are not necessarily lying, we're merely saying they share a sameness of some sort. Yes, your intuition is spot on. There is a connection between them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homotopy_type_theory#Equa...

We could identify two completely different things and say they are one thing. I am not sure this makes them one thing. Suppose we have two different things A and B. We can come up with a symbol X and assign it the concept captured by the sentence "Either A or B". That would make both A an...

I figured I could raise the table-stakes on the loaded questions by bringing your daughter into the equation.

And then my better judgment kicked in...

Well there's a turn up.

It’s more of a turn down.

The current understanding of nature is Ex Nihilo.

Unless you have something true to say about nothing, maybe you want to check on that definition again…

No it doesn't.

The possibility of spatially separated parts forming a coherent whole is quantum entanglement.

Profanity is the crutch of inarticulate motherfcuckers.

I already responded how I saw fit. You tried to cram that into your categories. You seem to have chosen to play the victim card, and you even found me to blame for victimising you. Victim? Wow... you are so far out in left field. Your efforts to cram everyone's responses into the unaccepted categor...

Identity seems not to indicate anything in the entity, but rather in the observers. If they agree it's the same (use the same label), then it's the same. Not quite... entities have identity. Observers have means of identification. Mathematics has a branch called homotopy type theory which deals wit...

That's very rude and dismisive... So very anti-social.

Don't you feel like you've exhausted this strategy?
