But if I was to ask 'you', 'What is a 'person'?' then what would your answer be?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 1:21 amAge, when a person says, "human being" we are usually referring to other people.

And, so because SO MUCH irrefutable Fact will exist, then this will provide MORE PROOF of WHY it is BETTER for EVERY one if, and when, BELIEFS are NEVER being HELD NOR MAINTAINED.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Dec 02, 2021 12:53 pm
Why do you use the phrase "you human beings" so much?The 'you' here, from the Truly objective viewpoint, is 'a human being'. So, what 'you' are essentially asking, to ANOTHER human being, is, "Are 'you', a human being, not a human being? Which is nonsensical.
Also, when, and if, 'you' ever come to learning and understanding who and what the 'I' is, for example in the question, 'Who am 'I'?', who and what the 'you' is, who and what the 'human being' is, and who and what the 'person' is, then 'you' will begin to make far more sense out of all of this as well as understand the misnomer "yourself" also.I will put it this way, for you; before 'you', human beings, came/evolved into existence what was 'it' called, exactly, which 'you', human beings, evolved/came from?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Dec 02, 2021 12:53 pm Or are you some sort of AI? An alien from another planet? Some other intelligent Earth-based species like a dolphin?
Now, do 'you', a human being, envision that 'you', human beings, will continue on either forever, or until your demise, or is it possible that 'human beings' could just be one part, of many parts, along an evolving or evolutionary path towards Knowing thy 'Self'?
If 'you' can envision that this could be a possibility, then can 'you' imagine that their is some 'Intelligence' somehow involved within ALL-OF-THIS somehow, and which, through evolution, is just coming to Know Its/thy Self, and 'you', human beings' are just a part along this continually evolving pathway?
If 'you' can imagine this, then just like EVERY thing else human beings have come to learn and KNOW there are obviously some who learn, understand, and/or KNOW some things before the rest do.
Now, OBVIOUSLY, NO human being is more NOR less 'intelligent' than "another human being" is. But, what is just as OBVIOUS is the Fact that 'we' ALL come to learn, understand, and KNOW DIFFERENT things, at DIFFERENT times.
Also, your use of the word 'Or' here was illogical in the context which you used it, but anyway, thank you for the CLARIFYING QUESTION. Those questions are VERY MUCH APPRECIATED.
Although I may NOT have provided 'you' with the ACTUAL answer 'you' were looking for and wanting, what I am essentially saying is when, and if, 'you' also come to Know thy Self, then ALL-OF-THIS will make PERFECT SENSE.
And, if your answer would be, "A human being", then I could ask 'you', 'What is a 'human being?' And around and around 'you' would go. But, if AND when 'you' are able to answer these questions, properly ANY correctly, then 'you' will UNDERSTAND WHY it is 'you', human beings, and persons, that are STILL SEEKING ANSWERS.
But, if that is NOT what your answer would be, then what would your answer be?
Also, I could asked 'you' to clarifying who and/or what does the 'we' word above refer to, EXACTLY? As well as POINT OUT by asking, 'Why when 'we' (who ever or what ever that is referring to) says, "human being" those ones are usually referring to OTHER people and NOT to "them" 'self'? See, what 'you' claimed above, by the way you said and wrote it, when the one who says, "human being", they are NOT, usually, referring to "their own" 'self', so why is this? I could have also made note of if this saying, "human being", 'usually' is referring to "other people", then what EXACTLY is being referred to at the other times?
'you' STILL FAILED, COMPLETELY and UTTERLY, to SEE and UNDERSTAND what I was ACTUALLY saying, AND MEANING, by the WORDS that I ACTUALLY USED, which were VERY CLEAR written, on the screen in front of that human body.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Fri Dec 03, 2021 1:21 am If you think you're not a member of the human species, then I'd just like to know what group you belong to or think you belong to?
LOOK, if you are NOT going to pose and ask CLARIFYING QUESTIONS to "others", from the Truly OPEN perspective, then you will NEVER completely understand what the "other" is saying, AND MEANING. This is THE MESSAGE that I have been CLEARLY EXPRESSING throughout this forum. And, 'you' can take it or leave it.

LIke you're just struggling to find something to disagree with others about when there is no need to.

ANOTHER PRIME EXAMPLE here of ASSUMING, AT WORK.

Have you ever REALLY just STOPPED and LOOKED at the WAY 'you', adult human beings, talk to "each other"?
When 'you' do, would you REALLY consider that 'talking sensibly'?
