That "intellectual purl" of your's is MUCH TOO DEEP for the rest of us, mere mortals, to comprehand! you have devoted more off topic posts to me than i can count. i'll reply to every one and others have now thrown their two cents on this childishness you pusue. you seem to relish in the off topic. this site has moderation should you have a complaint. why not let those moderators decide the appropriateness of posts without you're continuing you're "i wanna be a forum motinitor too" tirade so that the other members here aren't subjected to even more off topic posts? i await your next straying. |

Personally, I think that any discussion of person, or his actions, is always "off topic".

Other than perceiving our own existence, when we consider that we think and feel, and there was nothing to feel or think, then there would be no thought and feeling. Therefore a thinking or feeling being can be certain that it he she exists.
What I get from that is that you believe there is no objective means of determining reality. Yes, there is, but only one. The fact that I exist, in the sense that I am a capacity to feel and think. That everything on which such a judgment would have to be based is subjective (i.e. perception). If so, I agree with you completely. I hope somebody is &^%*^ing writing all this down. You just did!
Are you saying I am a somebody? I thought you'd just agreed with me. You cannot do both. :smilerfukface: |

You cannot do both. :smilerfukface: I am not trying to be rude. (I can do that very easily, so why would I want to be trying? Unless I want to become trying, or trying to want to become trying. But not rude.) The idea is that Forminder's Postulum says, that there are smilies in the system that are hidden; their spelling equivalents are not displayed in the key or guide to the extant ones. My new quest, which replaces the Holy Grail, is to try to hit upon the spelling in the syntax of the smilies on one that is so rude that the site will be closed down when it gets displayed (finally) on the screen, after many decades of hard and dedicated research work. I will close each post of mine from now on with a strangely spelled smiley with proper syntax. My aim is to win the Nobel prize for Peace with this. By staying unsuccessful in my tests. :JohannSebastianObamaInTheRear: |

I don’t consider a “fact” to be equivalent to a “means”. |

Have you ever felt the future is the past, but you don’t know how...?
A reflected dream of a captured time, is it really now, is it really happening? Don’t know why I feel this way, have I dreamt this time, this place? Something vivid comes again into my mind And I think I’ve seen your face, seen this room, been in this place Something vivid comes again into my mind All my hopes and expectations, looking for an explanation Have I found my destination? I just can’t take no more The dream is true, the dream is true The dream is true, the dream is true Think I’ve heard your voice before, think I’ve said these words before Something makes me feel I just might lose my mind Am I still inside my dream? is this a new reality Something makes me feel that I have lost my mind All my hopes and expectations, looking for an explanation Coming to the realization that I can’t see for sure I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, please save me from myself The dream is true, the dream is true The dream is true, the dream is true I get up put on the light, dreading the oncoming night Scared to fall asleep and dream the dream again Nothing that I contemplate, nothing that I can compare To letting loose the demons deep inside my head Dread to think what might be stirring, that my dream is reoccurring Got to keep away from drifting, saving me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself Lost in a dream of mirrors, lost in a paradox Lost and time is spinning, lost a nightmare I retrace Lost a hell that I revisit, lost another time and place Lost a parallel existence, lost a nightmare I retrace I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself I only dream in black and white, I only dream cause I’m alive I only dream in black and white, to save me from myself The dream is true, the dream is true The dream is true, the dream is true |

Have you ever felt the future is the past, but you don’t know how...? : no. at any given moment only the present exists. |
