Actually I would prefer to be a "know it all" than to be a "know nothing, stay ignorrant and be proud of it" like you.

Actually I repeatedly said in the past that I know that I do not know many things. What I did here, and what you completely ignored, was that I just reported delivered content from science and several cultural traditions - points that you did not care to adress in any way.

What I also did was trying to explain that the very design of our thinking and mind prohibits us from gaining any insight and knowledge that our design does not allow us to form, since our design is limted in reach and format and thus cannot embrace the unlimited. We need to seize to exist as separate entities to become one with all and thus realise the "all". I showed that this is a knowedge that is being delivered in Christian and Buddhist traditions since centuries and millenia.

It is your fantasy, your twiosted mind only, that I told you what relationship you have with your deity. I nowhere did. I just explained that as a fact ALL thinking and all intellectual activity by the ego is based on the structure of the languages we speak, and that this is established scientific consensus today, since longer time. I indicate that certain branches and schools in ohilosophy see it like this, too. Putting anything else into my mouth on what I should have said about your relation to your deity you happen to belive in, is your imagination only - not my real record of what I said.

You also owe an apology to those members on this board who currently have jobs or had jobs that by their social or public respectability or reputation maybe compare to being employed in a warehouse like I was, or doing work with an even lower reputation value, as seen by the Zeitgeist. Your repeated comments on my old warehouse job - you repeat that stabbing since years, don't you - by which you hope to hurt me, implies that you look down on the primitives, the failed existences, the socially lower beings or poor dogs doing such work in a warehouse. If it were not like this, why trying to hurt me by refering to this past job of mine? You even admitted above, to M.H. I think, that you acted cheap. Since we have members also working as salesmen, cashiers, as truck drivers, in factories or doing their daily tour with the garbage disposal service, you offended all them too when you tried to offend me over this one job I once had. Because you illustrate by that that you see a reason that allows you to look down on people being in such jobs.

And that is your disgrace. Not mine, and nobody else's.

Disgrace? No Skybird. I have complete respect for people on all steps of societies ladder. The only exceptions are those who could be more than they are but don't.

Default Well about the math.....




M theory supports the existence of parallel universe's
their number being infinite, however , soon after an infinite
number of universes were created there would soon appear
an infinite number of life bearing stable universes. shortly after
this an infinite number of successful advanced civilizations
would start simulating universes and being advanced civilizations
would create seamlessly perfect simulated universes that would
then soon outnumber vastly all the infinite numbers of real universe's
the implication of this is that the only way to tell if your universe
is real or artificial is that. If your universe has a creator its a fake,
if it doesn't then its real.

A man needs to stand by both his mistakes and successes and learn from both.

Why? This is an interesting discussion, which has been nice to follow from the beginning. I at least feel I have gained new insight from different posts and viewpoints here, and I'm sure I'm not alone.

And since when are you in a position to judge others on whether they can, or not, and whether it is this or that way due to their own responsibility and fault, or not? FYI, I live the way I do (and at nobody else'S expense: not the state's, not tax payers', not the community's) by my choice, technical obstacles after studying existed, but are not the dominant motive. I have no debts and owe nothing to nobody. I may not be rich, but I can live a life in material moderateness, and this is the life I have chosen back then, and now, and I have good time available to do the things of my interest, and to read and to learn what I want. Where I worked in the past for free, for interest or for idealistic or charity motives as well, I did so not by obligation, but by choice.

Alltogether this makes for a better record of my life and a better living quality than many others have to show up with. At least too good as if I need to take cheap bites from somebody strolling by who does not lknow me, does not know my life, my goods and bads, had run out of an argument himself and needs to compensate that by turning words or putting words in the other'S mouth and turning things personal - and repeatedly so.

Latest distortions in this thread were not your fault. I disagree with you on the original topic, but the behaviour of August is nothing you must feel responsible for.

It takes two people to argue, you know. The question here is, which of you is going to be the better man.

No Steve. You served our country honorably and in time of war. That alone earns you my respect.
