Thank you for the update!

For any newbies on the thread: Phenomenology - By Branch / Doctrine - The Basics of Philosophy

I would suggest anyone interested in this subject goes on to YouTube and look at interviews by Professor Donald Hoffman from MIT and what he believes about reality.

This is a reply to an old post ( I know ), but the findings in the paper make absolute sense ( to me ). We already know that memory patterns shift from place to place in the brain — from short-term to long-term memory, and over that period of...

Well I suppose you do have a point there Randall. In today's society you can no longer agree to disagree you must be part of a tribe.

No definitely not satire and I believe vaccine deniers and those who refuse to take it should be forced to take it for the sake of others.

Well that obviously makes you smarter than the rest — cooler too :cool:

Good point, but I don't necessarily call that "agreeing to disagree". I call your approach tabling or postponing the discussion on the understanding that due to other priorities, it cannot be resolved at the moment. That's sometimes the wisest...

Well I don't believe you are correct. I don't agree with everything you say but I will fight like hell for your right to say it. Sometimes I have even disagreed with you and gone away thought about it and ended up agreeing. However I think there...

You're right. But personally — I don't subscribe to the "agree to disagree" mentality either. It's the same as sweeping it under the rug. Instead — I think people should have the wherewithal to constructively hash-out and resolve their...

Wishing Gene all the best and a speedy recovery.

Is this some kind of satire ? If so , at one point there were 1000 deaths a day. Nothing to laugh about.

Yes there is no evidence that the vaccine done anything other than helped and protected people People who are anti vaccines put not only themselves at risk but others around them. I personally would lock anti vaccine people up for life in a...

There seems to be some missing episodes. That's how I found out about Gene's situation. I made an inquiry about them via the online form, but have not received any reply ( yet — that I know of ). This situation obviously explains why. I wish I'd...

Thanks for the update Tim. I am thinking about Gene and we hope he gets well soon. Anyone missing the Paracast at present should remember the huge archive that is available.
