Are you sure that's enough?

And is that the point at which matter ceases to exist?

So 6 billion are being tortured.

Which leaves 2 billion torturers.

1 in 3

Feasible statistic I suppose.

 

Q. How long would it take 6 billion people to press the one available stop button.

 At 1 per second, it would take 6 billion seconds.

That's about 190 years.

Q. How long would it take to retro-fit 6 billion stop buttons.

I think that in both instances, supply would never keep up with demand.

Though there would be species regeneration to consider.

Another supply and demand issue.

And let's not forget the poor people having to maintain such a high level of torture.

The workload would be torturous.

I suppose that in both camps some would undoubtedly achieve erotic satisfaction.

Would this be moral?

Tommy Tuberville is onomatopoeic.

Which is odd, because the guy is reasonably slim.

This is probably why you mistakenly referred to him as big and fat.

And we all like to think our Dad's were hero's.

My Dad was Superman.

GOD is a broad concept relative to human ignorance.

In that sense God is not required to be an existent entity.

So any creation type hypothesis derived from human ignorance, can be referred to as GOD.

Therefore GOD is BIG BOOM and BIG BOOM is GOD.

Or Dave.

But GOD is a widely accepted name.

And I think ALAN is well accepted in some quarters.

And something from nothing will continue to remain unresolved.

Therefore, some might argue that reality can never be anything more than a simulation of an unreasonable assumption.

Exactly.

And that is why some people make a living from predicting the future.

But like I said, if said predictor guesses correctly people are happy to ignore all the incorrect guesses.

And if you watch and analyse a hundred theatrical mediums, you will see that they all use the same technique.

They will target specific pre-selected vulnerable people and elicit information from them using leading questions.

It's actually very entertaining to watch.

Occasionally they get caught out by a prankster......Which is also very entertaining.

Don't be fooled.

So how can a life span be any shorter or longer than what it is?

So a person lived for 50 years.......Life span 50years.

If same person had perhaps lived a healthier life style, they may have lived for 60 years.......Lifespan might have been 60years......But this is only speculation.

We can only know a persons actual lifespan, which is the duration of life from conception to death.

Speculation is futile.

Does 0.9 = 1?

No because the difference is significant.

Does 0.99 = 1?

No because the difference is still significant.

So how many 9's are required to make the difference insignificant?

Ones body usually decides ones fate.

If we had free will we could override the body.

We commit suicide for reasons.

If he was ignored he would eventually go away.

Certain age groups are well known to have a propensity for irrationality.

Especially Male.

Hormones are to blame.

Can I be the independent analyst?

There is no actual explanation for the beginning.

Just speculation.

And some  speculations are more preposterous than others.

Magical Blokes is pretty preposterous, don't you think?

A lifespan cannot be reduced or increased.....A lifespan is what it is.

Debateart is great.

Even the whining kids.

Sort of mostly boys under 25.

Probably not currently in meaningful relationships.

Only jibing.

Though Debateart is still great.

Trickery.

Usually by coercing gullible people with leading questions.

At the end of the day, it's all about making money.

And predictions are easy to make.

Human nature is repetitive and therefore predictable.

And so are natural events.

And some people will remember reasonably accurate predictions with awe, and want to forget about all the inaccurate stuff.

And a few people will make a living from predicting.

The human mind has the potential to overthink.

And brain chemistry has the potential to generate  fantasy and illusion.

AKA storytelling.

Which will inevitably result in gullible people with the potential to believe.

Why talk through a donkey.

I thought that GODDO was supposed to be Mr Sensible.

Was he having a bit of a fun Shrek moment.

Is he green?

Does he photosynthesise?

Maybe.

What they leaving,

Where they going,

All they're doing,

Is not doing this,

Anymore,

Perhaps.

Bye

Bye.

Common sense tells us that hominids probably evolved somewhere in Africa.

And that Adam and Eve are a reasonable analogical tale made up a few thousand years ago, or a few hundred thousand years later.

Though the analogical tale is contradictory as I stated.

Artistic licence if you like.

Literally metaphorical.

I agree.

I personally wouldn't regard the Pyramids as sculptures

Though the monumental Pyramids were built and installed, with a both representative and functional purposes in someone's mind.

And formed from rock, sculpted into cuboid blocks.

So each block falls within the semantic remit of sculpture.

Have a nice day I_06.

Illegal is often irrelevant.

Functionality dictates actions , and can easily override or facilitate conceptuality.

Inexact thoughts.

Though with regards to the question.

Buildings have a functional intent and sculpture has artistic intent.

Though for sure, language can accommodate the two, together in the same sentence.

Monuments, such as the Eifel Tower or Statue of liberty are perhaps representative structures.

Statues generally represent figures.

An art installation is what it is......Three dimensional constructed art within a specific space.

Though for sure also, language would be able to accommodate all of the above into one sentence.

Try it on the Egyptian Pyramids for example.

Though when it comes to interpreting a narrative, if one has a reasonable command of the relevant language, the one will probably tend to to make appropriate differentiations between the various objects.

Probably true.

But not necessarily a compatible synopsis these days.

Slavery helped to shape the modern World.........That's the be all and end all of it.

No going back.

And then there are installations, monuments and constructions et al.

How much can one get for a foetus these days.

OK, so maybe it's a peace of mind thing.

But one might also find peace of mind in the killing of Russians or other terrorists.

Therefore dead human tissue can be just as emotionally valuable as living human tissue.

Cristo71, sounds like a vintage wine.

Black grapes or white grapes.

Though technically grapes are neither black nor white.

It's just fruit discrimination.

I blame molecules.

Though a lot of people have a tendency to blame each other.

Atheism is sitting there and thinking what a load of tosh, when the religiously brainwashed start to bleat.

But in general, atheist is not being brainwashed with a load of religious tosh.

Of course, other bleating is available, and all levels of intellectual brain state are acquired.

So it could be said that theistic bleating generally occurs within the lower ranges of the intellectual scale relative to formative conditioning.

Though lower level theistic bleating should not be  confused with higher level theistic tyranny....Or vice versa.

Such are the capabilities and vulnerabilities of the human mind.

Basically....I am atheist, because I was not taught not to be atheist.

Which is not quite the same as not being taught to be theist.

I was encouraged to be theistic

But also simultaneously encouraged to be open-minded.

Therefore I prefer to think of myself as being open minded rather than atheist, but nonetheless atheist in the sense described above.....Which is to say, not a theist as described above.

Red hat man.

You know it's true Doc.

Gender is defined by Egg and Sperm production.

Whereas, overthink can define anything as anything.

Penis vagina hang-ups are the No1 topic at the mo.

Just masturbate regularly.

I personally define Cats as Dogs.

My Dog is a Cat born into a Dogsbody.

Hookers have always been there Doc.

And crime.

Crime and hookers.......Two inevitable components of a thriving society.

I agree.

It's foolish to think that humanity is the be all and end all of evolution and intelligence.

Alternative intelligence is evolving and will continue to evolve, and we will facilitate that process. Which in terms of a Universal purpose, is the purpose of us and our successors.

And there again, everything might be purposeless.

Best K.

If I've told once, I've told you a hundred times.

The Bible is just nonsense written by daft blokes.

Especially the first bit.

And Jesus loves children.

Yep I'm guessing that's why he never married, and why he was executed by the Romans  for being the leader of the biggest paedo club in the "Holy Land".

Also known as the Apostles.

Interpretation BK.

Interpretation.

Explain why this topic in particular, is dumber than any other topic.

Yummy.

Crispy insects with crispy leaves.

Just needs a good dipping sauce.

Nice statement.

Though I would suggest  that we are also an Earth resource.

And I would further suggest that we do not steal, but temporarily repurpose.

Temporarily, but indefinitely temporarily in a universal sense.

Though one might also argue that the human manipulation of Earths resources has a greater universal purpose and is therefore necessary.

A good virus would be more efficient and less damaging to the environment in the short term.

Asteroid good too.

Super Volcano also good.

Though I will stick with an effective virus.

Apparently moss will inherit the Earth.

What do you think A.I. would regard as its objective?

Though, I think that we tend to regard A.I. as a singularly connected intelligence rather than individual intelligences.

Do you not think that a truly alternative intelligence would develop characteristics such as individuality,  and therefore also develop variable aspirations and allegiances?.....Perhaps relative to it's human ancestry.

Well actually, Bimbo originally referred to a young male.

Bimba being the feminine equivalent.

Though the derogatory corruption of the word Bimbo, tends to be used to describe a showy frivolous and seemingly unintelligent women.

Not necessarily idiotic, which denotes any person actually presenting with low intelligence.

But typically, the word idiot also tends to get repurposed as a derogatory term.

Such is language and its development.

"Load of shit". LOL

Go on......Add weight to the vegan argument.

Though I'm guessing that vegans shit methane too.

And as Central Europe scorches in the heat, Wales continues to be cool and wet.....Not much change there.

I'm not sure that the appreciation and/or recognition of bimbos is necessarily misogynistic per se.

Bimbo's clearly perform an essential and dominant social role.

More penis vagina hang-ups.

If boys cannot afford the dick and bollock surgery, then just carry on with the anal option.

And luckily for the girls, strap-ons are not expensive.

No.

They are different.

And therefore can only contradict themselves.

But how would we know A.I's intentions.

If it develops in the same way as the human brain.

It might not tell us everything that it is thinking.

For sure.

In so much as everything that occurs within a Universe at any given moment, is natural.

Therefore everything that you refer to above is natural.

One can choose to offload one's dick into any orifice.

Or be offloaded into.

I think that people have been making these choices for years.

Yet we still get hung up about it.

A.I. or not A.I.

That is the question.

Is a data system that can be controlled, A.I. or just a computer?

For me, A.I. is an intelligent device that can think for itself and control itself, and also evolve independently of humans.

How would we know that a human dominated A.I. device, was telling the truth?

You're very astute Deb.

What is he talking about?

What is love B.K.

It might be Ice Cream for some.

It might be spanking for others.

Love is just a word we can apply indiscriminately to internal electro-chemical responses.

Sort of.

Not a whole lot different to what you have now.

You're clearly a reasonably contented soul.
