... Perhaps l should look at dark: matter_energy through this lens. — ucarr

Bad philosophy derived from bad physics. :roll: — 180 Proof

@BitconnectCarlos The enemy? You mean all those non-combatants you displaced and then stole their houses and land?

It's theft plain and simple. If I attack you and you successfully defend yourself, you don't get to steal my wallet afterwards. The defence is justified the theft isn't. — Benkei

Judging other species by human standards is the first mistake ... — Sir2u

When we speculate about the nature and content of this world, of course we’re doing it within the scope of NI. This leads me to say we don’t and can’t really know a non-NI world.

Had I lived in the States, I wouldn't vote. — Tzeentch

Kamala won that debate. — NOS4A2

Trump is the greater evil. Don’t overthink it. — Mikie

Taylor Swift has endorsed Harris.

“It’s over.” — Mikie

Well that was fun. Now about that genocide… — Mikie

the omnipresence of cons — ucarr

Is a purely objective world out there? — ucarr

The fact that we have not received any signals does not mean that they are not out there, it just means that we have not received signals. — Sir2u

Isn't truth a metaphysical concept? — T Clark

Speculation is fun, but if you want to get serious you have to get your hands dirty and commit to the grind ;) — I like sushi

Btw, barely a century of terrestrial technoscience, our so-called "Fermi Paradox" seems wildly premature. — 180 Proof

Not all self-reference is self-contradictory. — T Clark

Relativism and objectivism are metaphysical positions.

Consciousness and existence being linked biconditionally is radical conjecture. — ucarr

You don’t allow that causation is a part of the physics of nature.

Is causation an emergent phenomenon? — ucarr

Or Is it just part of the physics of nature?

I don't believe Zionism is inherently correlated to Jewish religiosity.

I don't think ... — BitconnectCarlos

And Relativism?
In contrast, relativism claims that truth is subjective and dependent on context, cultural beliefs, and individual perspectives. What is true for one person or culture might not be true for another. — Cadet John Kervensley

For instance, in matters of morality, what is considered right or wrong can vary depending on cultural or historical contexts, reinforcing the idea that truth is relative.

Does causality exist in a world without consciousness? — ucarr

I stopped reading here. — BitconnectCarlos

Thread Title: People Are Lovely

To the degree they are interesting (i.e. unfamiliar), I agree.— 180 Proof

Well, that's an interesting perspective :chin: — Amity

The unfamiliar certainly holds its attraction, as can the familiar.

Your words had a strange effect. I thought: 'strangers across a crowded room'. First Love?

I don't believe the main physical domains can be reconciled without consideration for the role of the observer - we are not separate/isolated from the system we wish to understand. — Benj96

[T]he "physical" observer MUST interact with the "physical" environment at some boundary by some set rules and principles.

People Are Lovely — Amity

Can a number have an application to matter and yet have no connection to matter? — ucarr

Does a map have some type of relationship _connection with/to terrain?
