I'm simply here to offer up debate...simply because I fully enjoy the intellectual challenges and exchanges. I profess no otherworldly knowledge but rather suggest the possibility that reason may hold some limits thus, may not account for all of reality. Feel free to challenge this assertion at will...and, if possible, I will simply answer in kind.
The ball's in your court.
Debate? Well that's a 180 degree turn from what you claimed to be offering up a few pages ago. Debate requires some standard measure...a common system of considering claims shared by those engaged. Can't be reason, now can it, koan man?
Suppose that reason doesn't account for all reality, I have no reason to argue against that claim. How will you discuss those unreasonable things with me, or anyone? How should we assess unreasonable claims, or claims in which reason cannot be agreed to be applicable? Should we just roll off a list of claims at, around, and over each other? Is that debate? Is that challenging an assertion? What would be informative about that? Meh, in any case, OFC reason has limits..it self describes a great many. Is this yet another deepity offered as profundity?
What portions of reality, if you know of any, cannot be reasonably accounted for..and what steps in, where reason fails, to provide an account?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
