Re: Nihilism
That was put brusquely, Leo. While I do mean what I said, I didn't mean any rudeness to you, and apologize coming off that way. Set your mind at ease, Dalek. I could clearly see that no offence was intended and I can warmly assure you that none was taken. In any event I'm mostly immune to casual in...

Re: Greetings and salutations
. HOW DARE YOU WEAR A WATCH! ...or even contemplate doing so. REAL philosophers don't wear watches!!! ...now,...stand in the corner & watch me. . You're the guy who metaphorically fellated Noam Chomsky in that other thread right? You're going to be my first "foe" here. And don't expec...

Re: Greetings and salutations
Really? Two posts, and all we know about you is what watch you like? You really don't give much away, do you... I'll call you watcher, or watchman from now on. :roll: That better be an allusion to Plato's Republic or else I'm confused...actually, I'm confused even if it is. But I get it. You're fam...

Re: On women
If you had earned my ire, I'd just block you, and not bother to point you to useful material. Hey, you have an opinion. That's fine. I don't agree with it. Not a big deal. Do I care if you breed? Not really. Do I care if the world becomes a teeming mass of human flotsam, wallowing in filth? Not rea...

Re: On women
I'm more than happy to admit physical differences between the sexes. As the French say, vive la difference! However, I won't exaggerate them as you do. I will point you to a book by David Benatar, though, which you may find to your liking, Benatar arguing for your view. Can't say I've read it, but ...

Re: On women
I second that, Skip. He's an ass. I must say, I was quite surprised to find women here on a philosophy forum; you know, given the "differences" in cognitive and emotional functions between men and women. I'm not saying all women are neurotic / unbalanced and dull but you don't really come...

Re: On women
Um...that wasn't a face saving exercise on my part. It was a nice way of saying, I'm right; you're wrong. I'm sick of arguing with people who are wrong on this subject.

Re: On women
Okay, I've got a confession to make. I'm a political junkie and I shouldn't have started a political thread. I've been through this same argument too many times and I'd just be wasting my own time and yours. So I'm going to bow out before it gets started. Sorry about that.

Re: On women

Great article. Chomsky really is a lowlife. I've personally corresponded with the man and I can tell you he's a narcissist. He's a textbook high functioning psychopath.

Re: Nihilism
I've had more time to think about it than you, Jimmy. And spent less time thinking about what statement my watch is making. :roll: The point was I was making no statement. And maybe it's just not the right time in my life for this rapid, Internet antenatalism conversion. Given that I'm about to get...

Re: Nihilism
Seems I've misjudged you for being open to ideas. Have a great one. Shucks and here i was thinking you might be open to new ideas! What a coincidence. And you have a great one too my friend. Not sure my girlfriend and I are ready to commit to not having any children...but, I respect your um...way o...

Re: On women
Could you be a little more vague? You're kind of breaking the flow here. Okay, essentially I wanted to complain about feminists, discredit some of their oft cited "statistics" and then complain about how society treats men unfairly in a lot of ways many haven't thought about. And how men ...
