I have not outright denied it and have seen/experienced crazy shit on drugs (call it phenomenology)... but i don't live, do, and act as if any of it matters like those who have never experienced the weird shit i have and yet insist there is a spirit world and a god.

It's a bit ironic. The guy who has reason to suspect the supernatural doesn't care, while the one who has no reason to suspect a supernatural world is so terribly interested in it.

If I'm ever in front of god and he says, "Ah ha, you fool, i do exist," I would reply with, "Well, to be honest, i didn't really care. I only pushed atheism because religion was doing a pretty shitty job on erf, and every religious philosopher i met was a knucklehead, so i didn't want to sit beside them during lunch."
Okay, being drug, so that your mind cannot process information, is information. LMAO. The inability to process information is not information. It is a physical and mental, handicap. You are so illiterate as to demonstrate it in your further speech. You do not even comprehend simple English.

"So you two are butt buddies, please go on."

No, Phil is an old military nerd intellectual computer type and his batteries are for HAM radios and shit. I'm a middle aged sociopath carpenter. I don't even know this guy and have maybe said three things to him.

Now you are quoting yourself. Cannot keep two distinct conversations in mind. Are you stoned again? A self admitted drug addict on a philosophy site, now that is really loosing your way.

No you're the idiot because Geometry is Arithmetic. I prefer a dictionary, thesaurus and a set of encyclopedias.

And by the way, I'm not one as immature as you, I insult peoples intelligence to see if it matters to them, as their response proves either way. But it doesn't matter to me, because only I know me, you have no clue. Which is very apparent with much, if not almost all that you state. And of course you can believe anything you choose, no matter how daft you appear to others. So go on, keep up putting your foot in your mouth, it's very amusing.

By the way, a metaphor speaks to no one, only it's half baked author does, as in this particular case. And literal existence means literal existence, which can always be proven, or not.
You can contradict grammatical fact all you want, it has nothing to do with me.
You can shout as loud as you want, demonstrating your illiteracy, but that only proves you are a fucking moron.
To show your stupidity, literal is the reciprocal of the metaphorical, when you cannot figure out the reciprocity of it, it is because you are stupid.
The Viagra generation!
You're mistaken, know that I didn't follow his youtube link, I didn't care to. I just responded to his statement. His and my differences go way beyond your newbieness. Compare 2011, 2015 to 2022. You're just a babe in the woods here. Now see how smart you are at extrapolating from what I've said to understand the main point. You won't be able to, because you're not very smart. I'm sorry, it's probably your age, seriously, I'm really sorry. So I'll no longer punish you, it's just not fair to do so. you're on my ignore list because of your age, and I don't want to be tempted to abuse you any longer.
LMAO, First I am a newbie, then I am too old.
What a fucking idiot.
Oh, I feel so abused, put on a shit list because I am too old.
To old for what? babbling?

A posted 68 year old telling a posted 75 year old, that he is too old. LMAO.
Is this an old lady trying to hit on younger guys so they can babble together? How romantic.
I would like a very much younger lady, myself, but not for babbling.
You are only as old as who you feel.

"A self admitted drug addict on a philosophy site"

I couldn't call myself a drug addict because if i am not on drugs, i feel no physical illness or sense of loss. Addiction denotes a requirement of a drug to maintain a certain physical stasis, feeling of well being, etc.

Wait... i am a nicotine addict. Forgot about that. I use the little Velo flavored nicotine pouches (citrus fruit mmmmm)... and if i don't get one when i want one, i do indeed feel a little unnerved.

I'm also currently trying to acclimate myself to beer so I can have a reason other than eating to sit at a bar. Formerly I rarely if ever drank and still find alcohol difficult to tolerate. I drank three Stellas the other day I'm proud to say.

I learnt about addiction in my late teens, I wanted to know why people become addicted. So, took speed, and the like, until I was stammering when I talked. I got stoned, stayed stoned. I learnt that people stay on drugs because after a time, you don't give a shit about anything. You live in a daze. So, I found out what I wanted to know, and stopped. It was interesting, but completely, at the same time, boring as shit. Even acid trips are just plain boring. Drinking, is just plain boring.
Now problem solving, that is interesting.

Yup, that's the problem with old-ass intellectuals. Phil - bless his heart - will never know anything more than life support systems and grammar matrices. His brain has neither the neuroplasticity, the conceptual continuity, nor the physical space (sourceable axon networks) to learn anything new at this point. For instance, to introduce something of Sartre to him you'd have to rewire his whole board. So, you and I are gonna have to ride it out with Phil and just listen to the grammar life support systems stuff.

That's not a feasible excuse, Phil. Nobody doesn't do drugs because all they did was stammer when they talked. They musta had some fake shit because if it were good you'd have enjoyed the high. Your reason is a non-starter, sir.

Really? View my work. It is original, provable, and done late in life. Stupid. You do not even know what neuroplasticity is. I discover things regularly and which are provable.
I publish all my work in PDF format, which means it is automatically time stamped.
So, there is real evidence to disprove your blubbering, and plenty of it.

Sartre ? An intellectual? Cerebral Necrosis. That is what you got.
I remember hippie intellectuals getting stoned out of their mind just so they could discuss Sartre. LMAO.

A case of questionable medical ethics.

If i were the doc treating the national guard guy in critical condition and he became cognizant, i would tell him that homegirl (the other guard that died) was still alive.

That's exactly right; he will want to fight more to stay alive if he hears that the other one is still alive. You have to stay alive! Don't be a wuss! Don't be the one that dies! Your friends and her are counting on you, soldier! Etc., etc.

Only later after he's out of critical condition do you tell him the truth.

Discuss.

Lol, it's like we gotta know this pope guy's every move. Pope is now departing Turkey and heading to Lebanon. Pope has just eaten a Ruben sandwich. Pope has a chest cold.

Imagine dying and finding out that Catholicism is total nonsense. How embarrassed would you feel for humanity? Hundreds and hundreds of years of carting these clowns around the world and putting them up in fancy cathedrals and all the long excruciatingly boring ceremonies and processions. All the money given to these clowns by the hard-working people. You find out none of it is real, but you can't tell the people back on erf because you're a ghost or something. So you're floating around a catholic church trying to tell the patrons it's all fake, but they can't hear you. Think Patrick Swayze in Ghost.

How much would that suck, bro?

And how does one do that, find out something after we die?

Depends on what kind of coverage you get. Verizon has plans that include international and interdimensional calling. You can call Heaven, Hell, Limbo, the Elysian fields, Tartarus, Nirvana, Valhalla, pretty much any place of afterlife.

Fun fact: the Hays code, established in 1934, prohibited movie producers from making movies with scenes where the cops were defeated in any way. Gangsters were being glamorized too much in the movies, and conservatives didn't want young Americans emulating them.
