Human beings are people.

No they are not.

Obviously 'human beings' are human beings. Whereas, and just as obvious, 'people' are people.

There is a reason why you human beings have created and use different words.

'People' are not 'human beings', and, 'human beings' are not 'people'. Again, for obvious reasons.

What are the obvious reasons?

Finally.

I 'knew' there was 'a way' 'to draw out' the 'curiosity' that is laying dormant within you adult human beings.

1. Because they are 'different words'.

2. The word 'people' refers to the invisible thoughts and emotions, within human bodies, only. Whereas, the word 'human' refers to human bodies, only.

Flannel Jesus wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:25 am Which people aren't human beings?

Each and every one of you people.

Flannel Jesus wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:25 am Which human beings aren't people? And why?

Again, all. Because the 'different words' refer to 'different things', obviously.

Not for Harbal's benefit, no.

And, not for the readers here either, correct?

An excellent idea!

Please, just answer the actual clarifying question I ask you, and do it openly and honestly...

What have I stolen?

Age wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:06 amBut you humans are animals, obviously.

We're partly biological, yes, but, no, we're not animals.

BTW: what have I stolen, age?

Age wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 11:16 amNo they are not.

Yes, we are.

One more thing: what have I stolen, age?

Age wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 1:17 pmAnd, not for the readers here either, correct?

Oh, if someone with a genuine interest asks, I'd give it a shot.

What have I stolen, age?

Have you forgotten what you have stolen?

How do you define the word 'animal'?

And, if you believe, absolutely that humans are not animals, then what 'category' do 'humans' fit into, exactly?

Obviously, this one does not yet know how to define words so that they all fit perfectly together to form one unified crystal clear picture of all-there-is. Or, as some would say, to create the GUTOE.

henry quirk wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 1:33 pm One more thing: what have I stolen, age?

Again, have you forgotten? Or, are you just in complete self-denial?

Age wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 12:01 amHave you forgotten what you have stolen?

Not about what I do or don't remember. It's about your claim...

....so, what have I stolen, age?

What does someone have to do to prove, to you, that they have a so-called 'genuine interest'?

henry quirk wrote: ↑Mon Jul 22, 2024 1:36 pm What have I stolen, age?

Are you, still, unaware?

Do 'I' really need to inform 'you' of what 'you' have done, and/or not done?

Age wrote: ↑Tue Jul 23, 2024 12:03 amHow do you define the word 'animal'?

In context: nuthin' but meat.

And, if you believe, absolutely that humans are not animals, then what 'category' do 'humans' fit into, exactly?

Person.

What did I steal, age?

You? Nuthin', cuz you don't.
