so are humans like pi or like the ship? if there are peices that are constant, what are they?

against reason in general or a certain "logical" belief?

something that doesn't make sense is when the person says : "In Case 2, where the fetus is a person and you don't know that, abortion is manslaughter. It's like driving over a man-shaped overcoat in the street at night or shooting toxic chemicals into a building that you're not sure is fully...

Agnostism is a logical stance because of the fact that you are questioning the belief of the person, and are Not getting a...direct, Truthful answer. God has to exist or not exist( i changed my mind after posting something else) But The person Does NOT have to know that therefore...

i agree with sikz for the most part. we can imagine other dimensions ( also the only other 1 i can mentally visualize is time, and not the one that is perpendicual to the "x,y,z" dimensions ) but we know what the shadow for an "4 dimensional cube" is in 3 dimensions, but we can't see the cube...

i personally like many things that schrodinger says, i would give a link, but i cannot find a quote website right now...

"I "became" human because i intended to always do right, and prior to that, i intended to not harm anything." is that being human or humane?

im not so sure that humans could not progress father. i believe the only problem with it is that to progress we would have to not be threatened by anything. i believe that humans are only mean when they feel threatened, so if we remove most threats we would have a much nicer/friendlier culture...

wow that last one is really profound, lol. i think that is a good idea. that probably separates us from everything but chimps. i'll have to remeber that one...

Maybe we should call the Toe the Theory Of Eveything We Know About. That would solve your problems :P im actually serious though, because your right 2 inches out of my perception time might be running backwards, but id never know. we can only apply the Toe to everything we know and can only...

Ouch... I think that the most of the definition would change with time, but i have to admit that certain parts would remain the same (not quite sure what that is though, sry).Example: i think that no matter how advanced we get, we will always have a certain unconscious will to survive, at...
