'I haven't had time to follow recent events so let's hope I'm not taking things too far out of context. When people say things it helps to understand their motives. We are often afraid to ask or...
I would like to sell you sociology. Science has been mentioned. I believe sociology is a legitimate science albeit a soft one. This justifies acknowledging religion's existence. I am not saying...
Hell. Not everyone is a scientist. But those who are normal and not desperate are not going to give themselves over to a cult leader or a gang leader. What should one do if they are desperate...
A universe with consciousness? That's a good one. Hadn't thought about that lately. Do I have to wait till I'm desperate? I don't think so. What about existence itself? How are we a small...
Asking me for my standard is a good question. Let me see if I can answer, but first ... The face in the sky wouldn't prove much. How would you know it was God and not some skillful sky writer? ...
I like it! I like it! Does it not depend on what one's standard is for existence? What is YOUR standard? You want some exhibition of magic? Like a magic cure for cancer? Like world peace for...
Gee. I thought they had relevance. Okay. What would be relevant to whether a god exists or not?
Are you sure none are relevant? Let me see if I can argue relevance. 5. Many people say God exists wo proof. Stop trying to prove this might not be the case. 1. Tradition first claimed...
Einstein - ILE, LII or ILI? Here is an argument that this question is not easily decided though maybe with a lot of research and work it can be. Whatever we are, ILE, ILI or LII we see the...
I happened upon this Christopher Hitchens talk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1OvDTrXr4k Arguments defeating him: 1. Where is tradition? 2. Where is humility? 3. Where is goodness? 4....
Reflecting directly with the content of a hypothesis by being immersed in its content as when Einstein was manipulating equations to come up with his General Theory of Relatively, making progress...
If today were tomorrow, tomorrow would be right here now. I don't know about yesterday. You'll have to rephrase that.
This sounds good and I agree at the exact time of taking up step #1 , Ti is unconscious, but I had something different in mind. What I had in mind was not everyone partakes in the scientific...
Why are some avatars missing?
Question: Since the established view of the space-time universe was the greatly respected Sir Issac Newton's, would the vision Einstein had before he could publish his first papers be considered...
This sounds good except how can one leave out Ti from 1. all the way through to 5.? Ti is generally associated with the ability to recognize logical consistency and correctness, generate and...
Some of these conversations remind me of this: https://sp.yimg.com/ib/th?id=OIP.xqMbvcX9QJSVPPoacdmVmgEsDh&pid=15.1&rs=1&c=1&qlt=95&w=151&h=113 Tell me. Does this visual represent an...
The gravitational field has only a relative existence... Because for an observer freely falling from the roof of a house - at least in his immediate surroundings - there exists no gravitational...
Lots of things. Too many things. Stop me before I mt my brain.
Do I like Donald Trump? I would like Donald Trump to put one over on Kim Jong-un.
I voted the Green Party candidate because I wanted to vote. I like Trump because he is wonderful (doesn't he say so?) and how can you not trust a President? He gives me the chance to abandon...
Thank you for being more specific. It helps to know what you are talking about. This is fine. Clear building blocks help as long as they are clear. I hope it is realized each theory may have...
Just to emphasize the ambiguity here, I will tell you what I had in mind. I don't know if I'm regarded by others as an LII or not, but I am an extreme multi-tasker. (I still haven't gotten...
The recent exchanges speak more to Socionics (avoiding the MBTI) which I assume is as it should be for this thread. Allow me to quote this link: Process and result - Wikisocion Process types...
Please understand. I was replying to a message of @ae1905 who seemed to be using MBTI language. If people would discuss Socionics here as I've seen on other threads I would look more closely into...
What INTJ would say that? Bravo! ===================================== As to relatives and absolutes, in general, I like to ask if the situation is scaled. Things operate with relativity...
In the case of error there is the possibility of correction. In the case of immaturity it is possible to learn maturity. How do we treat the immature? We can teach them or try to. For the...
There are two cases. 1. If a relationship has either been determined to be destructive or the determining process itself is destructive, then the solution is to discontinue the relationship. 2....
Some systems say one is innocent until proven guilty. Other systems say one is guilty until proven innocent. It's a choice which system one wishes to operate in. The first system provides a...
Emotivist = Emotivists Emotivists try to enter the emotional atmosphere of the conversation and they try to keep the emotion in the conversation positive. They can talk about various things...
Suppose I were to say Ti thinking and Ni observation were alike in that they are about things going on inside one's head. A difference is Ni is supposed to be observation while Ti is supposed to be...
Let's carefully divide this thing into two categories: things and people. (That had better cover them all as I don't wish to have to kill you.) If I slip, slide and fall slipping and sliding...
May we say organize and categorize have in common they bring together separate objects into a set, S. When we categorize we place a group of objects in their respective sets. (We may also place a...
You didn't say whether you wanted to try small liking things. What do you experience together? I can only guess. If you share food together, or a class together or a movie together, say you...
You don't have to tell him your deepest feelings. After all you would be embarrassed and he wouldn't know what to do. It must be gradual so he is stirred up slowly. How to do this? Tell him in...
How wrong was this wrong to you? Why were you vulnerable? Did the friend have another priority? Was the hurt defiberate or something they could not help? Both of you couldn't agree to...
I wait to see what is going on. Then I have to select among: 1. I get the hell out of their way if I'm not interested in their causes. 2. I take them up on their judgment and have an...
Your avatar is too hot to touch.
I'll try my hand with an answer: Social anxiety - a diffuse fear of entering or being in society. Shyness - a fear of being in society at all. Weirdness - behavior conflicting with what is...
Outdoors, stock market, internet, sleeping equally except sleeping gets the lion's share. INTP.
Why do I want to respond to all these various threads on every topic everywhere. Can't do it. What do I do? Don't tell me be selective. I can be selective but there are still too many.
. I'm sorry to hear your computer won't arrive after all. I do take a dim view of those eclipses. Try to avoid eclipses if you want cut something in case a sharp tool is needed to cut you a...
Ya got me. The only explanation I can think of is they were estimating the weight of the label added on. In this case be happy they charge shipping by the weight.
Forget about being happy. Be happy you will have a computer. There are many in Bangladesh who don't have computers.
I wouldn't exactly say so. Feelings are important and even those who don't indulge in them underneath know they are. Home? Not home for me, but a nice place to visit. Like hurrying down a path...

Rarely
Just looking at those two words, are they nouns or verbs? Categorization and organization are closely relating in meaning. They are nouns. Don't they fail to move as a structure fails to move?...
Why do too many people define themselves by what they hate? I can think of a couple kinds of haters. People who believe they are suffering an injustice. Like being denied the vote, getting...
Looks like direction for thinking might not work after all then if direction is not unique to thinking: Fear - directed away from something Hate or anger - directed against something Love -...'
