Well, I can see inside a box. My simple power of lifting the lid is clearly far superior to your "intuitional science".
And with that I'm done with you. I overestimated you - I thought you were a halfwit.
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.'

Are you sure you understand what "sentient" means?
"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."

Because those "reasons" only work on people, who are too stupid/ignorant to comprehend science, philosophy and history.

Why is eating meat a step backward but eating plants is not? Is God not manifest in all things, plants no less than animals?
Fruits are the fruit of a plant and that is the best of the best.
Grains, beans and seeds are also the fruit of plants and we could live 95% with that
and the fruits of plants don't really cause too much pain and suffering.
Plants give the fruits in order to have humans or animals to eat them and spread the seeds around.
Even by eating many seeds the plants seems to know that at the end some seeds will be kept in order to generate more plants
so once again not much damage is done to plants.
We also need some veggies and in this case we cause some pain and suffering but we have to remember that
old saying.......NO BRAIN NO PAIN.
We can not live without causing some pain to plants but as far as we keep the pain to a minimum we do our very best.
I grow some veggies in my garden and when i need some i always cut the outer leaves so the plant keep alive and the suffering is kept at a minimum.
Animals on the other hand have a developed consciousness and when killed the pain is million times more that the pain that a plant would suffer so we really
got to look at the damage in both quantity and as far consciousness is concern.

Ok. Let me see if i understand what you say.
Science which in your case come down to physical science.
Do you think that physical science can produce any progress?
Evidence please.
Philosophy, can you please explain what philosophy is and who qualify to be a philosopher?
Hystory. If hystory is so important why almost nobody learn from previous mistakes?
Thanks for your next explanation.

Ok, then.
I give you my explanation of the word sentient and then you will give me yours, Ok?
Sentient is what can help in your real progress whether is something material-physical or mental.

Ok Stim, let us do a deal.
I tell my spiritual teacher that from now on i am no more interested in intuitional science and instead i want to work on my psychic power
so i will be able to see what rats are doing inside holes and what is inside magic boxes.
Will that make you more happy?
In the meantime please can you tell me what is the meaning of philosophy and who qualify to be a philosopher.
Don't forget that Christmas time is coming up very fast.
I mean Christmas 2015.

What? Random quote snips? No, worse. Looks like misattribution.
I followed the green arrow back to the source, the opening post of this thread, and don't find those words in what Tiberius had written there. Care to say where, if any where Tiberius is supposed to have said these words?
