Ah. You're telling me somebody else has BPD, and you want me to send that person over to PF.
No.
lol
Yes. I know for a fact that I rarely explain things as well as I could when I'm on this forum.
It's usually not worth it bc idgaf about people who aren't going to read my careful explanations anyway.
You are not one of those people.
You may ask me to explain myself any time I do that, Miss.

Thank you, Sherlock.
That is precisely what I was trying to bring the convo around to.
(Excuse my indirect and drawn out manner of communicating. For lack of a proper village idiot... or maybe bc of an excessive number of them lol... a group of regulars on this forum have collectively decided that mine is the opinion not worth paying attention to. I end up playing a whole lot of games to get my point out there when it matters.)
The Calvinistic view can be interpreted to condone a lot of crappy behaviour. I mean, if certain people are going to heaven regardless of behaviour, why bother being nice to each other at all, right?

Again, pardon me for only quoting the bare bones. I've developed a habit of quickly typing a few sentences and then letting the trolls wear themselves out before I post the meat of any issue worth discussing.
Hume's 4 O's argument was one of my favourites. The original was far more eloquent than my crappy copy and paste job :& I fear I've done the man and his work a disservice.
I'll be back later with a proper copy of Hume's argument, and possibly Sartre's version if I can find a decent translation in the next day or so.
ttfn :)
"That ain't a billion trillion... we haven't even come close to supposing lightening is ready to strike again..."
only in the observable universe... which is less then 1% of the entire universe.
and this still doesn't prove its impossible, even if everything was correct, when it was not. it only says 'its crazy! look at the chances!', but it can still happen.
The original calculation was incorrect, because its made up. Thats not how evolution works, there are many many factors that change it as well. Some factors speed it up, others slow it down.
