Willie is not here at the moment but Rico can answer for Willie.  Well when i had a LSD trip (before i woke up and grew up) i had the same impression. You are still but still moving. That happen when your brain turn the white jelly into brown jelly. Anyway that guy STILL make good music despite the brown jelly. 
What the fuck are you on now?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Sorry but little Enrico is still searching DESPERATELY to know the meaning of philosophy (love of wisdom). So far none has come up with the meaning of this word. How do you get wisdom, where wisdom can lead to, what wisdom is all about and so on. I thought it would be a bit absurd and laughable to post in the philosophy forum when people have no idea of the meaning of this term. But now finally i have been told that you as the guru of the group you are the only one to know the real meaning. Please do not let me wait any longer so i can put an end to my daily torture. Please tell me the meaning.

Can you at least explain your point so we know where you are going with this.
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech (September 14, 2013 at 8:17 am)Rationalman Wrote: Can you at least explain your point so we know where you are going with this. I did not think that was so difficult to explain what wisdom is, how do you get it and where wisdom can lead to if you really know the meaning of philosophy. People post in the philosophy forum without knowing the meaning of philosophy that is why i think it is laughable the whole thing especially considering that love of wisdom and atheism are the two opposite.
