So........
I still say I exist, I can prove I exist, and this thread is full of fucking bullshit. Yet there are people who have been beaten into mental submission by it. Never let philosobabble get in the way of reality.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.

I don't think anyone's been beaten into mental submission in this thread. More a matter of the economics of fuggetaboudit.
This is a perfect example of philosophy for no purpose other than philosophy. It reminds me of a scene in Aristophanes' Clouds where we find Socrates up in a balloon, contemplating the upper air and its relationship to higher thought. Pure silly frippery.

I would argue,but i am not feeling like punching a dead horse repeatedly with a hammer.

Now you've made the greatest discovery of all. One that took many philosophers their whole lives. You now know what Socrates said as: "The only true wisdom is knowing you know nothing." From this realization you are able to proceed however you wish. Most people assume certain axioms so that they may live, others fall into the abyss of silence. I would suggest it as a humbling liberation from the arrogance of the human mind.
Brevity is the soul of wit.

Really?I saw it as throw away humour when i saw this thread going round and round. You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. |
