Note: Can’t decide if I back Shepdick or Tillingborn. But I imagine I’ll be able to decide after 3-4 more pages are posted . . .

It’s a toughie . . .

Would you like to share with your audience you're insatiable fetish for pizza that you've mentioned a few times now, I'm sure something about pizza is eating away at you. :shock:

Do share. .we're all ears.

Or, you can just ignore you're weird obsession with pizza, which I doubt will happen now, so we the audience can only wait for the next exciting installment of the marvelous hilarius pizzagate issue you are hopelessly fixated on.

By the way, if you continue to refuse to fess up about why you keep linking ''me'' to the pizzagate issue you seem to have.

Then I suggest to you, that you just SHUT THE FUCKING FUCK UP ABOUT IT...OK weirdo.

It's how most people lose themselves in philosophy. The eternal search for "We don't know what we are looking for."

We already are what we are looking for.

What exactly are we, but an idea. What is an idea? I've no idea.

Philosophers are tail chasers, like snakes.

The snake eating its own tail simply represents the recreation of life through death by the Universe.

The meaning of life is to die.
We are what we do. If we did not know we would cease to live we could not face tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow. Finality is necessary though not sufficient for remaining alive .

The dream of this world of time may not be all there is. There may also be eternity (timelessness).

That's not entirely true. As someone who is familiar with the Socratic method, the desired outcome is partly improved critical thinking. Granted that's not very specific and I don't have particular targets, or ways of measuring it. However, another desired outcome of the Socratic method is to show that blowhards like yourself don't really know what they are talking about. When one gets responses like this:

How's that?

Just to fuck up your shit and waste your time.

I promise you the latter. And then some.

In contradistinction, I have misunderstood everything and yet remain, as if by will and stubbornly, on a different page.

That, between DAM and me, was about temporal experience and eternal experience. Surely you understand the similarity between Eastern non-duality and European absolute idealism? If not reading Schopenhauer may help.
