oh my god-----what is the philosophical lesson???
turtle raises a good question.
arc, i’m not familiar with snake plants… but i get what you’re saying. it’s a good example of what i was saying.
i think creatures such as us are naturally creative, and that an economy centered around specialization, small tasks, repetition, often does us a disservice. it’s good to broaden horizons… to drawing, or elsewhere.
you were in the zone, dialed in, locked on, in tune, bending space and time by being absorbed in something.
I really like what arc and river are saying…they are talking positive stuff…
ilp has become very negative…the focus is on all the shit in the world…we have persons on ilp who tear down anything good and focus on the bad…you know who they are…
hello us dummies…I continue to be amazed at how intelligent life on earth developed from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen…
I still think an intelligent God brought these things together; but that’s a minority opinion.
how did an intelligent god do it…
By being a part of it.

I am a part of all that is. I am a part of you and both are part of all that is.

I don’t believe you are a part of me…
It’s interesting to note that a-part of it literally and figuratively deconstructs the concept apart. Apart implies little or no referentiality,whereas the former imples very direct relationship.
Yes. My beliefs are panentheistic.
I looked it up and I still don’t understand…
what is it all about---------------------------------everything and nothing
so humans are making up these ideas about life …any evidence or is this belief…
Belief is the mother of fact. As I believe, so I am. I’m with Heraclitus in that the only thing permanent is change. Once anadherent of objective truth argued with me that knowing the capital of Bolivia is knowing an objective fact. Facts change. Well, Atlanta used to be Marthasville.

ier—how about atoms…do they exist …are we correct about hydrogen…is it a scientific fact…at least for now…because when people confuse fact with belief…we are in trouble…
The view of an atom a planetary system complete with electron orbit used to be considered fact. Science remains our best guess yet as to what comprises physical reality. What is seen as objective fact are propositions that have a wide consensus of agreement. Science of the brain has moved from phrenology to neuroplasticity. Who knows what it will entail a few decades from now.
