Did you know that Jesus was a Palestinian? — Moses
People trust in science that works and is shown as proven; honest. — PoeticUniverse
Spain too? This is simply crazy. — ssu
To make matters worse, naturally a student studying his course book from the computer at least here is as costly for the schools as one textbook would be. But the problem is that you then cannot reuse the computer service and you have to pay a new one for a new student. Reshuffling old textbooks isn't allowed! — ssu
College graduates read an average of about six fewer books in 2021 than they did between 2002 and 2016, 14.6 versus 21.1.
What happens to our society when we don't read as many books as we used to? — ssu
But in case the point is polemic, much good has come out of Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and so on. Right? — ENOAH
It is clear to me there are numerous examples of good tgat has come out of Christianity in the broadest sense of the word. Jesus alone. — ENOAH
I agree with the OP. We can criticize terrorism and oppression taking place in the name of Islam. We can criticize "forced" conversion, inquisition and crusades which took place in the name of Christianity. But we cannot criticize Islam or Christianity on those bases. — ENOAH
I think that if you're not good at maths and logic, I would think that you might not be in a good position to know if this is a valid paradox or just straightforward nonsense — flannel jesus
`despite apparently valid reasoning from true or apparently true premises` - that's key! The premises and steps in reasoning have to make some kind of sense. — flannel jesus
The staircase problem is called an omega-sequence paradox, a paradox that involves counting 1, 2, 3, ... and doing something at each step, then expecting the behavior to be defined in the limit.
You described it as endless, and yet claim he reached the end... The "paradox" is just you choosing to invent a story with contradictory concepts. — flannel jesus
How did Woodpecker (a foetus) sign the petition? — Agree-to-Disagree
It is 4º here — Lionino
don't be futaphobic — Lionino
Is there a reason why they do this? o.O
Can't imagine they are homo-or futaphobic... I mean, I looked at their studio scenes they gave away recently. There is some really weird s***, but also several futa scenes.
If I remember correctly from the prior games to now is that illusion gender locks the male character so you are not able to do that in game. The only thing you can do is save the male pose in studio and then load a female in the place of the male character.
So you can get your still shots and with enough you could make a gif but as far as actually putting in a female to the designated male slot, I don't think that can be done and if it can, it will break the game or some illusion policy by laws. Again I am not sure so I could be wrong but that's how I remember it from the SBPR/PC days.

-- :down: -- science is being controlled by bureaucracy — Agree-to-Disagree
Walking with a dog also gives you an excuse to talk to people. If I didn't have the dog with me then I wouldn't talk to anybody. The dog gives me unconditional love. — Agree-to-Disagree
I walk a dog for about 2.5 hours daily. — Agree-to-Disagree
Nonetheless, if sin is in fact some act (or thought) contrary to the will of God, then it’s impossible for me (and for most people, I’d argue) to KNOWINGLY sin. — Art48
The notion of "suffering" makes sense as a uniting theme, even if there are more joyful existentialists (or, if we prefer, post-existentialists -- thinking Derrida and Levinas now more than categorical classifications) — Moliere
Both K and N explicated some kind of doubt about what we believe we're doing and why, and the latter existentialists -- so I interpret them -- attempted answers to those questions. In this sentence I mean "existentialists" in the historical sense, rather than philosophical sense — Moliere
- The Brothers Karamazov, Book II, Chapter 6.But the martyr sometimes likes to divert himself with his despair, as it were driven to it by despair itself. Meanwhile ... you divert yourself with magazine articles and discussions in society, though you don't believe your own arguments, and, with an aching heart mock at them inwardly.... That question you have not answered, and it is your great grief, for it clamours for an answer
https://friesian.com/existent.htmSisyphus is stuck in an eternally pointless task. Now, if the world and everything in it are also pointless, the lesson is that the task of Sisyphus is identical to every thing that we will ever be doing in life. We are no different from Sisyphus; and if his punishment makes the afterlife a hell for him, we are already living in that hell.
Interesting conversation here. — Fire Ologist
But I think you are both right, that the ethical is essential to existentialism, and Camus stripped it down too far, being the closest to a nihilist of the bunch. — Fire Ologist
Ethics was like their vehicle for delivering metaphysics and secondary to me. — Fire Ologist
Unfortunately, it turns out not to be possible to put oneself on one's ignore list. — unenlightened
it begs the question, what is it about bad behavior that makes it evil? — Astrophel
One is confronted by the question, is ethics rational in its essence? Kierkegaard said yes to this. — Astrophel
https://friesian.com/existent.htmIndeed, if the loss of God means the loss of all meaning and value, then actions are without meaning or value either, and one cannot say that it matters whether actions are "right" or "wrong," since those words, or the corresponding actions, don't mean anything more than anything else. Dostoyevsky, indeed, may be counted as himself an Existentialist, but in a theistic rather than the French atheistic manner,
I cannot think of a single philosophy that advocates the idea that there is just one point to being alive, unless you mean living itself (as opposed to being caught up in silly ideas or failing to reach one's potential, however the latter might be conceived). None of this has anything necessarily to do with religion. Religion is only necessary for those who cannot, or don't wish to, think for themselves. — Janus
And therefore, i suggest, Prof Deigh may have misunderstood Camus in a pretty drastic way. Am i right? — Jussi Tennilä
