An Enquiring Mind Wants to Know

Male brains on average have larger and more dense…

"Einstein had twice as many glial cells as normal males — the discovery caused an international sensation as well as scientific criticism.

What are glial cells? Previously, scientists believe that neurons were responsible for thinking and glial cells were support cells in the brain. Now Researchers believe the glial cells play a critical role in brain development, learning, memory, aging and disease."

I was looking for the part of the brain, that was also twice as large but couldn’t find it… it’s the one associated with spatial memory. Unfortunately my memory IQ is in (or less than) the 1 percentile. I’ll keep looking.

If you took two groups of men and separated them for 2,000 years, one not be allowed access to knowledge and the other does have access, they would develop different intellectual specialisations. They would both have the same brain size with a different utility of that ~ it stands to reason. …women are similar to that.

IQ is information based, id argue that humans higher intellectual functions are in how the speech cortex talks with the visual cortex. Y’know like with visualisation, how some people with aspergers can do complex maths in some bazaar visual manner. Look into your own mind, the higher function is more fluid and expressive, conceptual objects interact then invention, inspiration, art, music and everything that makes humans better than machines happens.

look, physically the brain is just a bunch of multiswitches and connections, that doesn’t explain the whole of the intellect especially as there is no way to correlate information as we know it with electrical or other signals. how can a concept be a signal?

“None of” what? And “like” what? Amorphos, I do not know what your point is. You haven’t read my last post, have you? Please read it! Probably and unfortunately you don’t know what she wrote and what I wrote some days ago, because - unfortunately - Mags has deleted the posts (but I have the copies!). And why should I response to this nonsense in general? Can you tell me that? And why do you not write me a pm? Is this thread the “thread of the Last Judgement” or the “ILP kindergarten thread”?

There is no problem at all, except an ballooned one. I hope we can call it “Problem Descending” (do you have humor?), because now it is still a “Problem Arising”. But why should I care about it? it is an almost empty problem, Amorphos!

If you really (really!) want to know why she had that emotional outburst, then read my post above or/and write me a pm! Do you not know that also princesses are able to insult?

Howsoever, Amorphos, I hope I get some texts from you.

Hey …(?) …!

Be very careful, dear Amorphos: she is a “lady”! :wink:

Thanks, I had already quoted and then deleted them in this thread (not in my personal computer), because I thought that you would delete them again. :laughing:

I do not know what I am going to do in this case, because this ballooned problem of nearly nothing is a strange experience.

Spatial IQ is the number one indicator for reality orientation and success in reality (hence why men basically have all the inventions)… they are also really the ones most interested in philosophy, (discussions about reality orientation), and are also better at making logically sound debates. Because just like they are on average TALLER than women, they ON AVERAGE have higher spatial IQ’s than women. That’s why men speak several thousand words a day less than women do, just like Einstein didn’t start speaking until he was 5 years old and everyone thought he was retarded, I didn’t start speaking until 5 as well.

There was some writing in red and blue, but i couldn’t understand it.

Believe me mate i just come out of a marriage with that problem [the ‘poor me’ i am a female thing], some women think they are in the right and plead to other males as means of gaining strength they don’t have. I just don’t think arc is like that.

You are right that i have missed the conversation, perhaps it was in the religion section that i haven’t been to lately. It all seems childish so i would rather not know the details, i am just saying that i hope i wouldn’t talk to a lady like that, should i not be a gentleman?

Ecmandu

Me too. Yet isn’t language and communication the very thing that humans have and other creatures don’t, so assumedly it is the higher [human] function [very general I know]. A computer which can communicate in a faster or more dexterous manner than another, is a better computer, no?

I’m just saying this isn’t a fair debate. Like i said in my first post in this thread, I read all those posts (I didn’t even bother to read the OP because I read the sources) and Arcturus started, and is, in this thread, stalking. It doesn’t matter the character of the person she is stalking, that is just the basic fact, and she wanted the facts.

Dexterous does not imply number of output, what we’re looking for is quality of output. Men have women beat on spatial IQ, and that is the reality orientation part of intelligence. The tallest man in the world is 8’4", WAY taller than any women, the same goes for spatial IQ, the man with the highest spatial IQ exceeds the highest female spatial IQ by at least 50 points, if not more, and 10 points is an exponential jump.

is ‘stalking’ the right word, is English is a second language to you? trying to find something out, isn’t the same as stalking. at most its persistent, but stalking would occur usually over an extended period, and cyber-stalking is not in the same league as real life ‘stalking’. its your choice of words here that are problematic perhaps.

I take cyber-stalking very seriously Amorphos. People commit suicide because of it. I think you need to scale back what you said.

Jeez, Arc you are not a stalker my friend.
For everyone : How does the process of making friends and being socially caring work? What is the process? Is this forum about just mechanics or humanity? Every damn one of us is here to socialize and learn. Get a grip and be human/e

No.

[size=120]I begged her six times that she should leave me alone with her childish nonsense, but she did not.[/size]

Promising title - disappointing OP.

I know nothing about your little stalking incident, but just seeing the length of the OP and the tone of your language, I’m inclined to think that you did act sort of stalker-ish.

I never saw you as a stalker. You want a good example of a stalker. Try the one that rides my ass.

… What?

Lev Muishkin. He follows most of my posts with ad homs. I don’t see Arc as doing anything like this.

I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about, arminius. You will have to copy and paste said “nonsense” over to me. Then, I will read it and decide as to whether or not I can see it and then others can do the same thing. Even so, I am not a stalker but you petty man like to take unfair advantage of a situation. We all need to grow a little humility in our gardens and yes, I do realize that I also have to but I see that you also need to and Wells as well.

Do you want to know what your above statement just reminded me of – what came to me ~~ I just saw all of the people in the village coming forth ~~ the herd ~~ and lying about those defenseless human beings being charged with witchcraft.
Why, because they thought that they could, because they didn’t understand their own minds and because they were in the grip of a virus or one might say a growing cancer - bias.

Again, show me where I stalked you. You really need to pay close attention to the definition of stalker and stalking.

Here is one:

stalk2/stôk/
verb
1.pursue or approach stealthily.
2.stride somewhere in a proud, stiff, or angry manner.

One might consider that that is what you did to me when you accused me of stalking, when you called me a liar, and when you said that I was not a consciousness seeker.

Here’s another definition;

I never did that - not to you nor Wells nor anyone in here. But I might add that both of you did that to me - calling me a stalker is harrassing in an aggressive manner and calling me a stalker can easily be thought of as threatening since it is threatening to my personhood, my character. And that is the reason that I opened this thread.

So I will wait for that evidence.

fuse,

That was also how I felt in the beginning, fuse, and I even went on to explain myself, my personality a bit to Wells so he could make the distinction. I have no idea what Magsj deleted or didn’t delete but if I can, I will find that passage and place it in here. And, I was going to leave it alone. As I said somewhere above, I told him that I would not respond to any of his posts as clearly he seemed fearful and also delusional. And that is where it was left - until arminius then called me a stalker and accused me of lying.

But I will admit to responding to Lev in regard to Wells with the word ad hom a few times and a few more things. But that is just because Wells continued on and on to accuse Lev of ad homs each and every thing that Lev said. At some point, Wells utters an ad hom towards Lev which clearly was an ad hom.

:laughing: I’m not trying to make light of your situation, Ierrellus. I do see him at work with you but I don’t think those are actual ad homs either. I think he actually likes and respects you…though it may be difficult to see.
Thank you, Ierrellus.

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Ecmandu, you have it backwards. It was me who thought that he might perhaps be my Australian friend who was once here and then he claimed that he wasn’t. Perhaps at that point, I might have left it alone, but I am a curious creature but I still would not have called it STALKING and I don’t see myself as really having stepped into his boundaries (as Magsj suggested).
But if I had known his demeanor and personality, this wouldn’t be happening right now. But I did explain myself to him.
At some point then, he called me a stalker. He might have chosen a more wise word for what was happening but he chose that one - me point accused me of being a stalker. Why he was so fearful I don’t know but i have my own ideas. And there is also a method to our madness…and it’s the subtle subversive nuances and hidden intentions that I so despite.
