Who says the Judge is righteous?

The Judge I suppose.

Ah well.

Things will sort themselves out.

I always find it amusing that written references to Diogenes usually say.

Diogenes, sometimes pronounced Diogenes.

What say you Sir.Lancelot?

Sometimes pronounced Sir.Lancelot.

From ZedVictor4

Sometimes pronounced ZedVictor4.

Not sure that Diogenes or Diogenes was anything more than a lazy debauched Greek son of a banker.

As for thinking, most people do it for free.

Now, Zeno he was Stoic.

Sometimes pronounced Zeno.

And as for old So Crates.

All so called "communist" states are just versions of hierarchical dictatorships.

As are all democracies.

Though some states are more brutal and oppressive than others.

Communism was a fanciful idea of the bourgeoisie.....Which is a contradiction in itself.

And many people accept that the bible is pure fact.

So from our respective deductions we have shown that a lot of people are a tad stupid at times.

Pasta, meat and cheese.

Hope you balanced that with something veggie and/or something fruity.

Gotta keep the gut running smooth.

In my experience.

In the end people succumb to death quite freely.

But for sure, in the run up to death the thought of non-existence might be difficult to deal with.

And I would suggest that most folk instinctively know that there is no continuation of self awareness.

Which is not to say that there is definitely no residual capability.

It is stated that DNA can last for 6.8 million years.

Well, If we were able to analyse your upbringing thoroughly, what are the chances that your parents never ever utilised a product of science?

Did you live in a cave, or did you have a house with electricity.

Were you always naked, or did you wear clothes that probably contained synthetic fabrics.

Did you never take medicines.

Did you never wash or clean your teeth.

Did you never use a vehicle.

Did you never use any product derived from refined oil.

Did you never eat any processed food items.

Etc.

Etc.

Systematic study and experimentation will inevitably get things wrong as well as right.

That's the essence of systematic study and experimentation.

Knowledge can be any old stuff.

The bible for instance.

Nope, you just made that up.

You use the internet, because scientists worked it out for you.

Nope that isn't science at all.

Science is the systematic study of the natural environment and it's processes, through observation and experiment.

Why do you utilise the internet when all you need to do is pray and think of a GOD?

Death is easy.

Dying is the difficult bit.

Thing is.

Cain buggered off to Nod and fathered a line of descendants.

Who was the Mother?

Don't think you quite understand what science actually is, or what it sets out to achieve, or the processes involved.

It would be pretty amazing if scientists got everything right, every time.

Oh.

By the way.

I wanted to do some research into gene mapping.

Could you tell me where to find it in the Bible please.

Twit Twoo.

Said the wise old Owl.

I agree.

I firmly agree.

People choose to be offended, often deliberately so.

Such is data transfer, assessment and intellectual output......Whereby gain is sought by playing the victim card.

Other better options are always available, such as ignorance or reciprocal criticism.

I personally am not at all bothered what people say to me.

I am of the opinion that offence is always created by the recipient and reacted upon by the over-sensitive, often deliberately so.

Each to their own opinion though.

Nonetheless I think that enforcing rules without a complaint being lodged is a tad dictatorial....So I hope that  this won't be the case.

NB. I did once flag up a certain Poly-theists remarks to me, but I regarded that as an exceptional circumstance.

I was being semi-serious.

Most reasonable people recognise injustice, but very few have the time or resources to do  much about it.  

So I suppose we should be grateful for those that do.

Though TERFS  is a tad extreme acronym, and such causes should perhaps be filed under social injustice, women's section.

I would suggest that the general public and moderate politicians don't really appreciate over-radical.

And I think that J.K. is quite inclusive in her common-sense ideology.

TERFS are probably a handful of people with nothing better to do.

I'm too busy to think about them.

But for fun.

Let's all think up a radical group and create an acronym.

Good morning Stephen.

And then you died.

And

Nothing.

Perhaps there were a few seconds of vivid memory.

As systems shut down for good.

But if you can't handle that yet.

Then you can always dream of  heaven.

Any heaven will do.

Make up your own.

Or choose one of the more popular Middle Eastern models.

All those virgins sound fun.

But I often wonder where all the virgins come from.

Maybe they are virtual virgins.

All a part of the big simulation.

Generational data transfer is such that people are in the main conditioned theists, rather than theists by choice.

Educated in other words.

Clever people re-evaluate and reject theistic non-sense.

Educated does not necessarily mean clever.

If that's was a business model then that's what it should be.

Would you force a baker to sell fish, just because the baker was not all food inclusive and discriminated against piscivores.

No.

I do not believe.

Belief is uncertainty.

One either knows something or one doesn't.

Though I would agree that a celebration of passed friends is far better than mourning them.

And I would also suggest that mourning some guy who died 1400 years ago, is just conditioned  ritual for the sake of it.

But whatever floats ones boat.......As long as it's done peacefully and with the understanding that other people prefer to peacefully float other boats.

I've never agreed with work.

But always been compelled to do it.

It's more of a money thing than an ideological thing with me.

If someone can afford to turn down business, then they must be doing OK.

Guns.

For sure.

I was thinking about resources and volatility.

Air?

How do Space Station bods maintain a continuous supply of breathable air.

How did the Apollo bods do it.

Never really considered it before now.

What storage capacity is required to sustain life for a specific duration.

Must do some research. 

LBGT etc.

Should there be an M category.

Or rather, a W category.

Rockets.

Still so much effort needed to travel 60 miles.

Slow progress.

Yep, an unavoidable consequence of a multi-functional entry/exit system.

True.

Some people ramble on about stuff that one is just not interested in.

Time to make an excuse and leave.

The worst are those that want to ramble on about their health problems.

History is only significant if your taught to make a song and dance about the past.

And "mourning" is just a ritual based upon the same song and dance.

As I stated....That's intelligent organisms for you.

Clever organisms live for today and think about tomorrow.

Now is gone the moment it occurs.

Never to be revisited.

Hi Bill.

Sorry.

You'll get used to me.

No intentional condescension.

Wealth is largely relative to ability and success.

Though the success of the human race in the long term, will be more to do with brains rather than wealth per se.

In terms of human evolution 20 years is a click of a finger, so save for an extinction event, I would suggest that reducing the population by 90% over 20 years would be a tad optimistic.

Of course it all boils down to what drives us as a species...Is it purposeful or purposeless....If we knew the answer to this question we could make better informed decisions.

So you're right....We currently relate wealth to purpose.

(PS. I'm not sure if you meant well acquainted or well antiquated).

Perhaps you're Amish or something like that?

Classic Athias.

Good to see you back.

Hello

Bill-O.

Population is relative to itself at any given moment and any given number.

Interesting/amusing, that your life is/would be dependant upon cleaners truckers and grocery store workers.

Perhaps you could learn to do your own cleaning, trucking, and grocery working.

OH....Might want to swat up on farming too.

And concentrate less on sexuality.

You'd be far too tired to be constantly worrying about what to do with your sex bits anyway.

People are BRILLIANT.

And get more BRILLIANT the more intellectual they become.

Not that the farming of a super-intellectual race is such a bad idea in terms of material evolution and galactic expansion.

But hey, for the moment let's just worry about transsexuality, electric cars, global conflict and whether the cleaner has mopped the floor.

One intellectual step at a time.

Oh....And religion.....I forgot about religion....LOL

Two steps forwards and one step back as it were.

Just describes some of the more bizarre aspects of an intelligent organisms shenanigans.

Must be the Gorilla in your DNA.

And yep, Battle of Karbala

Could have had a party

But no.

Preferred fighting.

That's intelligent organisms for you.

Well.

Everything to do with this thread in terms of global social evolution.

And the necessity or unnecessity of.

Assessed at a moment in time we refer to as 2023

Or if you want to narrow it down, 30/6/2023.

Because that's all we can do

No time machine.

Recreational sex is simply the relief of procreational tension.

Doesn't matter what one does with ones bits. 

Or what form ones accompanying internal imagery takes.

Ejaculate......All good for now.....Piss and a shower......Go to sleep.

Until the next time.

For sure.

Prison becomes a way of life.

Becomes a place of safety for some

Who reoffend just to get back there.

What's the difference.

Sentenced to a life.

Yep.

It was a hypothetical question.

With a raft of possible answers.

And why would their profile necessarily be true.

Given the nature of their posts I would suggest that their profile is more likely to be necessarily untrue.

What proof do you have that they are in Russia or even Russian.

Or even female.

You sound like my dad.

Now is. 

And then was.

And tomorrow will be.

Capitalism to Socialism to Communism = Dream-State.

Dream-State for a few.

Nightmare-State for most.
