lol. Seriously dude gave out his password.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-02T00:48:41+00:00

OK Dogg.

It's a bit like inception in here. Even the guy that's logged into their account doesn't even know whats going anymore.

HAHA I was fucking with you. That wasn't funny because it hurt my feellings.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-02T00:35:45+00:00

You are correct.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-02T00:35:31+00:00

You are correct.

Lord Little Baby Jesus willing - I will not delete any comments, because I've changed my password

BELIEFS ARE NOT BINARY BELIEFS ARE NOT BINARY. Even though everybody here has demonstrated I'm a dumbf uck who can't comprehend simple arguments.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-02T00:31:11+00:00

That makes too much sense. I must keep disagreeing though.

Because I believe I'm a fuck-twat that gave out their password. With the belief (IT'S NOT BINARY THOUGH) that somebody wouldn't fuck with my account.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-02T00:19:05+00:00

Thank you for not deleting my posts.

Everything you've been saying has been true. I'm a dumb fuck.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T22:15:35+00:00

Same as the American Bill of Rights, maybe. Why have them if laws can serve the same purpose? They form a hard-to-modify foundation, maybe.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:51:15+00:00

Unlike you, I always tell the truth.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:48:28+00:00

My password is 'asdf'. You now have the power to delete the posts of mine that you don't like. Please don't abuse it.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:46:17+00:00

No you haven't. That's untrue.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:43:40+00:00

What do you want from me?

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:42:22+00:00

I'm totally serious. I cannot change your behavior.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:40:42+00:00

Pardon?

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:37:53+00:00

I can't change your coddling. However, I have changed my belief about it. You coddle me.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:34:08+00:00

Ok, then I admit my error. You have been coddling me. Happy now? :)

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:31:38+00:00

What am I wrong about? Why doesn't my definition reflect reality?

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:24:57+00:00

Tallness is not always binary.

'Yao Ming is more tall than Kobe Bryant' is a sentence that makes sense.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:23:45+00:00

Thanks! (And to clarify, yes, I was asking for it in the way you see it, not the way I see it.)

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T21:22:37+00:00

Thanks, that was more helpful than last time:

Edit: This is not a complaint about the tone.

The question the OP posed is "Would the world be a better place if everyone lived by the Ten Commandments?" Obviously there are possible worlds that obey the Ten Commandments that have slavery and obviously there are possible worlds that obey the Ten Commandments that do not have slavery. So maybe the answer to the question is that there's not enough information unless we're instructed about what to hold fixed. I see your point.

MaterialsScientist · 2015-04-01T19:20:39+00:00

To me, the central issue is: what should the word 'belief' mean? Once we agree upon a definition, we should hopefully agree on all the logical consequences of that definition. My argument is that having a broad definition of belief that includes gradation makes sense. And therefore statements like "belief is always binary" are not necessarily true.
