I thought that digital meant that you use numbers, digits, to encode information.
Binary is a digital system that uses only two states, 1 and 0, but there are others, as is patent in quantum computing and fuzzy logic.

At work.

Well...... if 'Digital' also just uses numbers then CDF47's analogy is even..... morer wronger-er....

I'm always multi-tasking online out of necessity, so no big deal to respond to things here.  Also, maybe read things in context.  I don't try to convince anybody they have to think a certain way.  If I share information, it's up to whoever to decide what to do with it, even if it's telling me to go fetch a stick because they don't care.  I just process it and move forward.   Have a good one.

Maybe if I need advice, I'll be sure and ask. 
You clearly care, or you would not be here. "Out of necessity" ... LOL
So you're being forced to post here .... LMAO. Don't be stupid.

It's not advice.  But you keep making assumptions about things, so it would make more sense to actually focus on what you know instead of what you believe I think. But you are free to believe whatever you like.  I'm not here to control your thoughts.

This place isn't the "out of necessity", but I have tasks to complete online, independent of this place.  This is just something to do on the side.

But like I said, believe what you like.  Enjoy.

The definition I just looked up seems to refer only to the digits 0 & 1. Digital appears to be another word for binary.

So you think I've arrived at some conclusion that is based upon incomplete information ?

Nope that's what theists do.
My conclusion is that they are having delusional thoughts because they are believing things without any evidence.

I feel like maybe you don't understand what words mean.

Yes, I think you're reaching conclusions prematurely, but not necessarily due to "incomplete information", but rather information you're coming up with on your own.  Such as you are in the thread about dreams and punching through walls.    Also, generalizing other people and applying logical fallacies as justification.

An example would be your last sentence.  You suggests I "don't understand what words mean", without qualifying your statement.  Okay, I'm sure you probably believe that, but there's no reason for it to be considered outside of your own mind, because you don't mention the words you're referring to.  In other words, you've created a dead end, except in you head.

Anyway, have a good one.

We tend to care if our beliefs are true or not.
In the words of Matt Dillahunty "I want to have as many true beliefs and as few false beliefs as possible."

We can do that by having justifications for our beliefs..
And that justification comes in the form of evidence.

At work.

CDF47's constant claim is looking wronger and wronger-er.



Unless they're happy just making up new definitions for the words they're using.

Not like we haven't seen folks do that before. Posters happily putting messages up using their own special version of English.

I think that is a fair statement, but how can you be the determining factor of someone else's evidence?  Furthermore, wondering how you can generalize that notion to a whole group without somehow invalidating their position, or even the group as a whole.  What makes your interpretation better than theirs?  In which case you just end up with an infinite round-n-round.

A: My information is correct and yours isn't.
B: No you are wrong, my information is correct.
A: No, you are wrong about me. My evidence is better.
B. Wrong again, and everybody who thinks like you is wrong.

Infinite nonsense because nothing to qualify or disqualify.

If you believe I don't understand what "words" mean, them maybe specify those words, in addition to what you believe they mean or some source.  This not only helps your case, but it gives me a chance to respond.  Thus we have good dialogue and it's easier to reach a logical conclusion.

At work.

Uhm.... T0 th3 M4X?

By the definition of 'Evidence', as well as its use in general parlance, it is 'Objective' of/to the people referring to it. (What ever 'It' is that is being reffered as 'Evidence')

We're on thd same wavelength with this, right?

If terms of forming a conclusion, it can be subjective (speaking with credentials, testimony, interpretation) or objective.  In application, there would be more focus on objective because we're looking for a specific result (following a recipe for a cake).
