Explain to me the problems with this argument and why they are not the exact same problems your argument faces.
Hahaha. I always found that funny the first few times I read that "smelliness" version of the argument in TGD. Was my favorite book of all time for years, I read TGD over and over so many times the pages wore out and I could paraphrase a good deal of the book onto these forums hehe.
That's awesome! I JUST read TGD for the first time a few months ago and I very much enjoyed it. Do you have any other recommendations, or favorites, Evie?
