The burden of proof relating to conciousness, free choice and rationality
#82
RE: The burden of proof relating to conciousness, free choice and rationality
How do you determine the difference between phantom pain and physical pain? It's an important distinction, as the difference drastically changes what should be done moving forward from that point. You go ahead and trust your senses if you like, but they're dirty bastards, and not to be relied upon without some sort of verification. You know, evidence.
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!
