I Just Don't Give A Fuck Anymore....Cure For Appathy, Anyone?
If you are in the middle of something, finding the answer isn't always the easiest. Looking in on someone else life it is usually a lot easier to make calls about what to do, because you aren't invol…

I Just Don't Give A Fuck Anymore....Cure For Appathy, Anyone?
If you can show me proof that God does not exist, I will agree to your point of view, becasue this all is this post is. None of it (apart from the stroy) is factual. I am not religous, open to the c…

Smoking - Enjoyable, but harmful
Now, you say you aren't addicted and can stop at anytime right? Then just stop. That simple if you say you are not addicted. Also, if you find that when you get drunk you smoke, stop getting drunk.…

Then just stop. That simple if you say you are not addicted.
Also, if you find that when you get drunk you smoke, stop getting drunk. Kill two birds with one stone.
Damn, you caught me.. ha ha ha
But how can one country run, and enforce all countries? Wouldn't that make us all ruled by the same government, therefore not individual countries?

That the whole world must adopt US-style "notice-and-takedown" rules
This seems like they are trying to blow it out of proportion. I might be wrong, but what right does the U.S have to force eve…

Man in the Mirror.
I don't agree with this.
I have gay friends, and to be honest, they are pretty much the most awesome friends I have. So I am firstly going to say that I think illegal marriage for gays is dumb. They should be allowed to marry to who they want.
Onto…
I understand the first part. I don't think I completely understand adding continuity or creating a disruption with respect to time. Is to create continuity to extend societies experience of time as whole. Essentially, to do good is to extend life (m…
Ok, I guess it is dependent on who they stole from.. But yeah, so I am thinking this continuity/complexity thing is pretty good...
Well yeah. Agreed. One thought, still. If the starving family stole the bread from another starving family, it wouldn't amount to much continuity, would it? :P
This is the closest to what I have become to believe. The view the book gave me was this...
Everything in the universe is trying to become more complex, more evolved. Any action which hinders this process is bad, and anything that does not, is good…
Time is as much infinite as it is a dot. I've discussed this over in another topic here on I Power, but the main idea is: in humans, only the present can be experienced, at all times, even when you are remembering a past action.
Think of it like th…
Radu Cornea I don't think I completely understand the point your trying to address. According to the definition "Good is to assure the continuity of time. Bad is to erode that," shouldn't everything be not bad (and in turn good) as time is infinite…
To make this discussion more metaphysical than it already is:
Good is to assure the continuity of time. Bad is to erode that.
Time, as a human concept exists only in the present tense. Offer continuity, whatever that may mean, and you will be rega…
