Breaking the rules a tiny bit:

[Praxis101]

I just wanted to clear a few things up:
I'm taking a short break from 2+2 to work on my paper -

That's what I'm really interested in. I came to SMP looking for some rational minds to help me review for accuracy. Some of that's been done through discussion, but there are still some major ideas that I'm not too sure of (I'm not an expert in vary many fields.)

I figured there were some philosophers, scientists, and mathematicians on this site, which I have discovered do, exist (I think.) These are the kinds of perspectives I'm looking to get reviewed.

Bots, poker tournies, etc: I suppose I was looking for a friendly card game.

"My post," the one containing personal information, was a private PM to DS - but no harm done, I suppose.

As for me being DS? Well, let's just say: I'd take that as a compliment. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]



Allegories work great for some people (I've learned a lot, just about everything I know, this way.) In normal discussion and conversation, though, I like to keep it straightforward.
Clear communication, fewer misunderstandings, and there are little places one can find so much joy [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

There's just too much speculation and heresay in our society nowadays, that's the big problem.

love your god
love your others

I'd take a bet that jesus means love yourself, love your species. Nietzsche uses the word "man" frequently. This word, "man," is short for mankind and is not gender specific (IMHO.)

Do these two things, go with the flow, and above all else trust yourself, trust your species: well, that's about the only option we've got left.




A few days in solitude (my campus is simply beautiful) - and I'll have just about wrapped things up. I've got one worry, kind of, and that's my credibility. In society, in this constructed world, I don't really mean much. All I can do is hope the paper will be received well. I like how FM says it: I like to keep things simple and comfortable --- hah, that's kind of like the dude.


Now, let me tell ya something about The Dude... [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]



EDIT: Does DS ever answer your guys' PM's? He's the only one who won't answer me!! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
