Thank you, Age.Age wrote: ↑Sun Apr 16, 2023 12:58 pmSo, are 'you' TELLING 'us' that 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this was being written, did NOT KNOW HOW TO STOP FIGHTING "each other"?
If 'children' ask me to TELL 'them' to STOP FIGHTING WITH "each other", which HAS HAPPENED, then I just PUT BACK ON 'them' the ABSURDITY of THIS REQUEST.
If 'you', adult human beings, (just MORE 'children' in Life) Truly WANT to be TOLD HOW TO STOP FIGHTING, then FIRST 'thing' to do would be to FIND OUT and UNCOVER WHAT 'you' ARE FIGHTING OVER or FOR, EXACTLY. That way 'you' WILL BE SIDE-TRACKED for LONG ENOUGH, TO STOP FIGHTING, and WORK OUT and UNCOVER WHY 'you' ARE FIGHTING. AND WHEN one LEARNS, and/or DISCOVERS, and Truly KNOWS and UNDERSTANDS 'WHY' 'they' FIGHT, THEN they HAVE 'what' IS NEEDED to JUST STOP FIGHTING WITH "each other".
Let 'us' KNOW HOW 'this' WORKS OUT, for 'you'.

So, are 'you', "dontaskme", here TELLING "others" that 'you', adult human beings, can NOT STOP DOING ANY of the Wrong that 'you' ALL DO?Dontaskme wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 4:00 pm Nothing can stop a war from happening, no more than a single raindrop can prevent the rain from falling, nor can a single drop of water stop a flood from flooding an entire city, nor can a single drop of water prevent a dam from bursting and drowning everything in it's path.
So, to 'you' EVERY one of 'you', adult human beings, 'just do' 'what you do', and there is absolutely NOTHING AT ALL that makes ANY of 'you' DO, 'what you do'?
BUT the Universe IS ETERNAL. So there IS NO 'sinking ship' here, AT ALL.
This quote here by the way appears to be OPPOSING what you SAID and CLAIMED above it.
Re: BETWEEN ME AND AGE
IF 'you' have REALLY 'done ALL you could', THEN there is REALLY NOTHING MORE that 'you' could do. And so, literally, 'you' might as well GO DOWN 'now'.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 5:36 pmDontaskme, there is no ship that is sinking. It's just you and I who are sinking. We will hold on as long as we can. However, even that cannot be eternal. We've done all we can in the name of something much larger than you and I are.Dontaskme wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 4:00 pm Nothing can stop a war from happening, no more than a single raindrop can prevent the rain from falling, nor can a single drop of water stop a flood from flooding an entire city, nor can a single drop of water prevent a dam from bursting and drowning everything in it's path.
There's just what's happening, and there is nothing making what is happening happen, nor is there anything that can unmake what is happening.
Metaphorically speaking, we all go down on the same sinking ship.

WHO has, supposedly, translated absolutely ALL 'the thus far existing metaphysics of earth' INTO 'one single metaphysics'?
WHY MUST 'you', and some "others", HOPE that ALL will be well?
Just out of CURIOSITY would you REALLY LIKE TO KNOW IF there IS a God, or NOT?
Are you ABSOLUTELY SURE that there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ABOUT 'the so-called future' that you do NOT KNOW?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 5:36 pm If there isn't, then who knows the future? I don't know what God is or anything about God and I don't know what is in the future.
But it IS the so-called "metphysicists", "philosophers", "thinkers", "religious thinkers", and "dreamers", who ARE the so-called "ignorant", "confused" AND "misguided". Unless, OF COURSE, 'you' are some sort of PRESUMPTION that the former 'lot' DO ACTUALLY KNOW the True AND Right WAY, ALREADY.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 5:36 pm But I think it's best for me to leave this forum to the next generation of metaphysicists, philosophers, thinkers, religious thinkers, and dreamers, as well as the ignorant, confused, and misguided who need them to point the way.
'What', EXACTLY, did 'you' think or BELIEVE that there WAS for 'you' TO DO, on this forum?
'you' shall, supposedly, do 'your best' in regards to 'what', EXACTLY?Gary Childress wrote: ↑Sat Apr 15, 2023 5:36 pm If God has any other use for me, then I shall do my best.
