Because It is, indeed, a neat thing to share thoughts with each others about everything...

So This topic is going to be about everything and only about everything...

Yeah you can put on some crazy stuff if you are feeling like that way, but so that nobody will get offended...

Let the thoughts flow in! and lets try to found reason for everything!

So what you think about this topic, about your life and about everything...?

If you don't find anything major, instead of try something minor and see how It will develop...

b00m! People go and think!

EDIT:

Due to some recent happenings on this topic... It made me to create first rules :eek:

RULES:

1. Please don't diss the philosophy
2. If you don't like it, leave it!
3. If you like it, you post on it!

when you are out of arguments youll just throw a simmilar phrase to those to escape further discussion.

Fact is, im yet to experience anything that is entirely un-explainable. Thus im a man of science and logic.

eh... God is just a definition or a value for something, when physics don't explain everything :(

I'm atheist, did you know ?

and I don't believe in logic, because discussing and working with people... It asks more creativy than logic :)

Because humans are creative beings... I need to treat them like that way... 6 Billion different kind of People and my creativy is only over 9000! :D


You don't believe in logic?Right.. im not even gonna start on that one.

The laws of physics can be applied to anything, nothing can 'not be explained.' some things are yet to be explained, sure, but the laws of science, are as far as we know, a universal medium.

Don't you worry, Imperialists. Revolutionary cells are stocking up on the latest weaponry and ammunition that you, my dear Capitalists, have sold them, for which i thank you sincerely. I'm sure that, once we decide to hang you, you'll sell us the ropes as well.


We sell you outdated weaponry! You will have to reverse engineer the good stuff like the spy planes we accidentally crashed near your nuclear facilities. Also, you will need the rope to tether the long lines that are common place in communist states!

secondly no, i haven't said anything is a fact, nor that anything is wrong. Im arguing the point. I dont believe in any 'higher power', not by any conventional means. Apart from the spaghetti monster.


Nope It wasn't pointless comment as It enlightened a lot to me :)

As in what did you believe...

Well yeah... About that cheese ?

Cheddar, maybe ?


Cheddar, mild.

nobod knows what was previous to the big bang. Most physicists wont delve into it on a fully scientific basis, it will be philosophical. hence hawking saying that.

yeh and you are coming to philosophy topic... Which is about everything... and you are trying to state facts as they are facts ?

Anything is debatable...

EDIT:

I rather use term... My personal opinion... and note everything on this topic is about my personal opinion... Even if I'm saying ''fact''

eh well ? I have actually been discussing with physicist "professors"(if title means anything to you) about it... Most likely the answer wasn't ''Don't ask about it''

but yeah their answer weren't that important... After all I have gotten best answer from the book... Don't know english translation for it... but It was Stephen Hawkins' book...

"Anything what was behind big bang... It is totally in god's hands" :)

Don't know if I translated it right way :P

what do you mean exactly. 'you're not wondering'. Because it IS a cop, its just looping. Secondly, simply because there's no defined meaning we know of doesent mean we just sit on our asses and watch the world go by.

I was looking something more deep for the meaning but ok... :D

And I wouldn't necessarily call it improvement, more like changing, since improvement means good change.

Who's to say if it's good or bad? Who's to say about anything being good or bad? That takes me to another subject: ethics!

Are there any moral acts that can be considered bad/evil under all circumstances? Is there bad/evil? For example if in some country a funeral would include chopping the dead in pieces and eating them, would it be bad/evil? We might think of it as bad/evil cause of our habits, but who are we to say?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_relativism
What do you think?

Damn I better watch it...my English draws some limits, better not try to go too deep :D
