Dec 3 2012: When the stakes are high always be honest with yourself. Though I’m not Christian Jesus paid the ultimate price for his honesty. However the reward supposedly was worth the sacrifice. Most of us cant afford to pay that kind of a price.
Dec 3 2012: Disagreement is a natural method that helps us to identify with other possibilities that may have been otherwise overlooked. This method is mainly for the ignorant. Believing in evolution I would say that it would be nice for a new “happy” method to become dominant.
Dec 3 2012: A lot of tasks in school are designed to stimulate the mind. The task itself is just a means of teaching the mind to process new information. However I don’t believe cursive writing is the most efficient way of helping in the learning process. Plus there is not much applicable use for cursive writing. Student’s time could be better spent. I’m sure we could all agree that there is “possibly” a more efficient replacement.
Aug 8 2012: My sentiments exactly E.G, there is too much truth in the universe to be content with simply not knowing, however I do find fulfillment while searching.
Aug 5 2012: I completely agree in your logic. Your basis for this conclusion is the fact that “infinite regression” is impossible which would mean the catalyst for existence would necessarily be an “uncaused cause.” You are also saying “God” as a being that is an “uncaused cause” exists because it is necessary. This is logical. I’m sure this “Uncaused Cause Concept” can be easily represented as a true statement mathematically. My issue here is that the concept is highly philosophical those who are not already inclined will most likely not relate to it. The uncaused cause it a great starting point. My book Quantum Philosophy does profoundly add to this idea.
Aug 5 2012: I agree with you. I didn’t mean to substitute your words. I know how substituting words can sometimes be a relegation. I can see how regression being impossible is a logical conclusion but unfortunately I do have to say I cannot see the logic within your conclusion. One wrong does not make a right. You’re right again about faith, accepting knowledge can be considered an act of faith but that is really just a way of substituting the word logical. My goal is to explain a logical way of reaching your conclusion.
Aug 5 2012: It is easy to predict the outcome when you design all of the controls but that is the nature of experiments. I like picking people’s brain. I to have conclusions for my questions and our destination am the same. Thanks for your wisdom and participation.
Aug 5 2012: I believe that your comment is an almost perfect view. It was a pleasure reading it. The question is very philosophical in nature but it can also be address through scientific lenses also. The ability to create I would definitely say is a necessary attribute. If I were to ask you for 2 specific qualifying traits what would they be?
