not sure what kind of evidence you are talking about though, like what is out of our reach that you would claim to exist?

Not talking about any evidence in concrete. And I didn't claim something else exists, I said that we automatically conclude that if it's out of our senses or out of what's known in the empirical (lets call it experiences) field, it does not exist.



And for the sceptics, I'm not bringing religion to the equation. Just for the record.

ok, right, so what exactly would exist that is outside the empirical?

he lost a part of his brain.. while he was still brilliant at math, he could not make any of the difficult decisions he made before because he lost that gut feeling

making difficult decisions is not a gut feeling. there are parts of the brain that deal with things like that, which he undoubtedly lost/had damaged

Who knows. How can I answer you without being empirical? Even the question itself is empirical. Therefore, go read the statement "me".

The thing is - I've called myself an hypocrite. If you read some Socrates you may know what I mean, or may not.



It's just that I no longer go along with empiricism, but yet I conclude that with an empiristic point of view, making my conclusion empirical, fallacious, contradictive and based upon something that's uncertain - regarding the concept of conclusion, and furthermore, certainty.



So there you have: me.

No worries man, at this point in time no one can express it, so it must not exist. Even if you got to see it every day and understood without a shadow of doubt in your mind I doubt you would be better able to deal with it then any other sheep.



Few people are able to empower themselves when faced with those type of situation, and fewer still realize that those situations look you in the face every single day. How many people choose to be extraordinary? Not very many. Next time you are faced with your reality, how will you look at yourself? Are you the best version of yourself in the situation your in? Or do you live the life of the selfish coward?



When you choose to play dumb long enough, it becomes who you are. Don't expect forgiveness for the choices you make, especially if you do them knowing your wrong. People often forgive, but life often does not.

That sounds like something a very special person told me, if it's directed to me.



You're building that in the empirical field. There's no way we can argue without you having the upper hand. It's like Shark vs Lion, but the lion is on the water, and there's no land around.

No sir I wasn't meaning it towards you, any of whats about to come either. I think you have already started figuring things out other people completely ignore. At least until some scientist tells them its ok to think about it.



It seems like they are sheltered from thinking freely the same way that any christian nutball would be, because they have everything they "believe" told to them. Keeping an open mind and thinking freely is absolutely one of the most important things you can do to make yourself a better person.



If who are stuck being who you are and are happy with it, I dont want to waste even one more second in dealing with you. It is not worth my time to interact with a human who will not help them self, I am better then that. Enjoy your life man, I dont think I could.



Might as well give the shark a machine gun.
