It's a good idea, Bill, but it's not what I meant to refer to as a network of professionals. I referred to the people who formulated the creed or creeds that you believe. I am very wary of all creeds. Uncertainty is great.I guess, in this arena, I consider the PhilosophyNow Forums as my own personal review board? If that is what you mean
Didn't Richard Rose say that one should never lie?Bill Wiltrack wrote:.

Not sure if even now I am understanding you correctly but...
I alone believe in the inherent good of Organized Labor.
Organized Labor is my religion.
Current, legally recognized Agreement Books are my Bible, if you will.
Again, if that is what you mean.
Oh, & BTW NO ONE else on earth believes in the way that I do...so their really isn't much of a network of professionals that support my views.
So, Bill, your word order in " I alone believe in the good of Organized Labor" is deliberate. I don't understand you in this, because I myself am a socialist who supports old fashioned trade unionism, that is as long as there is a sturdy bargaining mechanism in place so that workers and employers can agree to arbitration or compromise.
What are "legally recognized Agreement Books"? Would you supply examples ?
I would have thought that any book which was not illegal was legally recognised.

Absolutely - and the technological singularity is just around the corner, apparently.Greta wrote:I think God is a potential, a potential we seem to instinctively sense as the possibilities of what life might become over many billions of years - if not seeded by the Earth, then somewhere else in the distant future. The idea behind the de Chardin's Omega Point makes sense in that a sufficiently advanced entity may well seem like God to us, and there's plenty of time left for new forms to emerge that we cannot imagine.
My favourite god is like Greta's but less cosmic and more psychological.Greta wrote:I think God is a potential, a potential we seem to instinctively sense as the possibilities of what life might become over many billions of years - if not seeded by the Earth, then somewhere else in the distant future.

Sure, from my experience of this entity i'm certain it is within your psyche.Belinda wrote:My favourite god is like Greta's but less cosmic and more psychological.

If we do create genuinely intelligent machines, I wonder where their evolution might take them.attofishpi wrote:Absolutely - and the technological singularity is just around the corner, apparently.
I'm keen on the Sun, Earth and Moon as deities. At least they do actual work to earn their reverence, unlike some of the metaphysical freeloaders out there :)Belinda wrote:My favourite god is like Greta's but less cosmic and more psychological. :)

I like too like those deities. I am especially keen on the constellation of Orion who is very beautiful. Do you see Orion in Australia? Maybe he is hemispherically ontical.I'm keen on the Sun, Earth and Moon as deities. At least they do actual work to earn their reverence, unlike some of the metaphysical freeloaders out there
