Roy maybe to explain you my idea in the way you liked it would be way too complicated. I cant state you the idea with logic because i would have to
write a lot more than i did in the post above. If you say then you dont take in consideration my idea and consider it insane i do the same with yours.
Well whatever...i dont know how it works. I think its what you make out of it.
It could be too that it is all by genetics and you dont have any influence. This would be equalized by having no free will at all.

Greetings


If you consider my ideas insane, then you're considering the amassed body of psychological and medical literature insane. It seems a bit childish to turn your back on established science because someone on a forum thinks you make no sense. A deterministic view of human development is for those who have resigned to a fatalistic view of life. If genetics determined who we were and how we acted, then there wouldn't be nearly as much diversity as there is. Nature and nurture, genetics and environment both affect how an organism develops.

Not sure. Usually people engage in debates and arguments to try and get their point across, and usually their point is one that they believe in. If you're just arguing for the sake of arguing, then you're wasting my time.

Maybe i am wasting your time. Maybe not. I don't know really if it is important to say that, but i think you didn't get what i wanted to say to you and i don't want to convince you from anything so maybe i stop posting here now. Seems kind of senseless to me.

What i wanted to say in my last post is that i don't stick so hard to my ideas like you might think. I kind of don't care, but i think it's interesting thinking about how it works, but if you don't want to understand me it seems kind of senseless to me.

I want to get beat up in an arguement with Roy! Okay, here goes!

People engage in debates and arguments to try to get a point across, not necessarily their point across.
DemonHunter cannot waste your time, for he does not own your time...even if it is possible to own time or not.
You choose the way you use your time.
If it is such a waste of time, you would leave this argument...or perhaps you already have...

Maybe he does understand? Maybe he just dislikes the idea, there is a differnce from not understanding the turth, from not likeing it.

I believe trees are very wise so it would be actually be quite good to talk to them.

Three topic resurrects in a single day. Wow. on Tue Jan 16, 2007 4:38 am

Two things.

1) How exactly would trees be wise? They sit in the sun all day, and soak up nutrients, and convert those nutrients into other forms, as well as converting carbon dioxide into oxygen (and even then, they're not that great at it, we get a LOT more oxygen from plankton). Obviously they're not too intelligent, if they were able to converse via telepathy, they could logically defend themselves through psionics as well, and thus would not be the lowest life forms on the food chain. Without intelligence (not necessarily high IQ, just understanding), how could they have wisdom?

2) You have resurrected a dead topic without really adding anything too it.

I feel so guilty about that. I'm really sorry. But still i believe trees are very wise. Probably it doesn't have anything to do with intelligence. One reason is that they just don't do anything except hanging around and growing which is really cool. Cool

Happiness can only be achieved through action and/or luck. on Fri Jan 19, 2007 2:14 am

All that hanging around and growing teaches us is to be lazy and to do nothing, that all will come to you.

Before anyone says "but all will come to you if you just wait for it," I'd like to say whoever is thinking it is full of it. I could sit around and wait for happiness to come to me, but unless I get out there and pursue it, I'll never find it.

Just do whatever you fell like and it will come to you, whatever it is. That's the point. You don't know it but that doesn't prevent it from happening. Cool
