Gary's Corner

[Gary Childress]

There won't be a "me" at all. It will neither be a "good" thing nor a "bad" thing for me. It will be nothing whatsoever at all. And so I will have no sobering thoughts afterward to fear or dread.

Is 'this' absolutely True, or, is 'this' just what you 'hope' is true?

It's what I believe is most likely the case based on experience (or lack of it prior to being born) Hope or fear have nothing to do with what seems most likely.

I will always be glad that I didn't have children, until I'm no longer able to have any thoughts at all. I didn't pollute the gene pool with more of me and I spared my potential children from a miserable world.

So, 'you' blame "your" 'parents' for 'the way' that 'you' are, right?

I don't know whose fault it is for the way I am. Why should I blame my parents?

Are you suggesting that 'your hopes' and/or 'your fears' do not have absolutely any thing at all to do with what you then perceive to be 'what seems most likely'?

By the way, what actually happens and occurs, and thus what is the irrefutable Truth is already known. Well by some of 'us',, here, anyway.

I don't know whose fault it is for the way I am. Why should I blame my parents?

Because you would blame "yourself" for exactly how "your" children would have been, if you had children, right?

If yes, then you would also, logically, 'have to' blame "your" parents, for 'you', as well.

But, if no, then what do you mean, exactly, when you were talking about 'polluting the gene pool with more of 'me', and, that 'you' have, supposedly, spared "your", potential, children from a miserable world, exactly?

[Age]

I don't know whose fault it is for the way I am.

If 'you', still, do not yet know, then 'I' can explain it all for 'you', if 'you' would like to know.

Why should I blame my parents?

Why do 'you' think, or believe, that there is any thing/one to so-call 'blame'.

Also, is there really a 'should', here?

As I see it I am responsible for my own reactions to the world, however I am not responsible for the way the world works, that which I react to or what the world does to me.

Why do you assume I would blame myself or my parents for anything? I spared my children from a miserable world. It has nothing to do with blaming anyone for anything. What is your fixation with blaming people for things?

Now, it is very clear and obvious that you are not, here, in order to learn and understand, so I will leave you with it but I will ask you, to clarify, what do the words, 'the world', mean, to you, exactly?

I'm constantly learning and understanding various things as I go along. It's a part of life that none of us can avoid. Why do you say I'm not here in order to learn and understand?

Why do you assume I would blame myself or my parents for anything?

Because of the very 'exact words that you have said and written, here.

I spared my children from a miserable world.

Once again, just because you, personally, perceive 'the world' as being miserable never ever means that 'the world' is, actually, miserable at all.

It has nothing to do with blaming anyone for anything.

Of course it does not. It has every thing to do with something else.

What is your fixation with blaming people for things?

The irrefutable Fact that you adults cause and create things?

What is your fixation as an adult in 'trying to'' excuse "yourself" from creating and causing things, here?

I'm constantly learning and understanding various things as I go along.

LOL Only some very limited things. Which, by the way, almost always 'fit in with' with your already obtained assumptions, beliefs, and prejudiced.

LOL It is absolutely obvious that you do not want to actually learn, understand, and know particular things, here. your words, here, express this very loud and clear.

It's a part of life that none of us can avoid.

LOL you could be learning and understanding, and could have learned and understood, a great deal more, but you keep doing the very things that are, and have been, holding you human beings back and which are stopping and preventing you human beings from learning, and understanding, far, far more.

Why do you say I'm not here in order to learn and understand?

Again, because of your very words, here. Go back and 'look at' 'your reply' to where I said and wrote,
If 'you', still, do not yet know, then 'I' can explain it all for 'you', if 'you' would like to know.'

you did not show any curiosity nor any interest at all. Which ultimately means that you would not like to 'know'. Which also means that you are not here to learn and understand.

Again, the only things that you are 'looking for', here, are 'that', which confirms 'your biases'. Which are those things that you already presume and/or believe are true.

I don't know. I should probably be like everyone else and just ignore him. That seems to be working for others. I answer him and only regret it every time.

He's got to be a bot. He's relentless.

Replying is not necessarily answering.

As you have clearly shown, and proved.

Here, again, 'we' have an allegation, and a claim, which if I asked for proof for, it would, again, not provide absolutely any, at all.

Fair enough, then I probably shouldn't reply, because I generally regret it when I do.

Of course you would.

Obviously if what one says and claims is countered and/or refuted, then they, like you, would generally regret it.

And, obviously, if one was to answer, honestly, the actual question posed, and asked to them, and the answer would contradict 'them', then they, like you, would generally regret answering.

Which explains why you generally regret replying and/or answering.

Obviously, 'these people' do not like to be shown when, where, nor why their words are False, Wrong, Inaccurate, and/or Incorrect, and thus why they, like "gary childress", here, generally regret replying to 'my words'.

If one can not back up and support their words, views, or claims with absolutely and irrefutable proof or facts, then, once more, I will suggest do not express your words, views, claims, or ideas in public, and especially so in a publicly accessible philosophy forum.
