Retitled: Modern philosophers are full of it!

[KrazyHorse]

So far that's 2 philosophers attempting to insult me in this thread by reference to the fact that I drink.



The standards of rhetoric have certainly slipped in the philosophy department if this sample is any indication.

I'll take a challenge with you folks any day of the week: me, on 10 drinks against the both of you, dead sober, on a series of pure logic questions. No fuzzy bits, no arguing about the ethics of abortion. Old school GRE-type analytical questions.

[Kuciwalker]

No fair, that requires actual logic

Hmmm, actually I'd do that too, if you get me ten drinks

[KrazyHorse]

Why am I so ****ing good?

[Kuciwalker]

Yes, I'm well aware of the law. It was a JOKE, particularly since I don't plan on drinking alcohol even after I'm 21.

[KrazyHorse]

I didn't realise it was a joke. I was under the impression that, in all seriousness, you wanted me to drive down to Butt****, Virginia, buy alcohol for you and then watch you engage in the Filosofizer Challenge online.

[KrazyHorse]

It's like I'm operating on a whole other level than you people right now.

I foresaw the whole discussion I was going to have with nostromo 5 hours before it happened.

I cannot be denied.

Haha, KrazyHorse is getting his ass kicked.

To be so delusional must be a gift, Aggie. Or a requirement for your field.

Seriously, man.

I said goodbye to any respect I had for your intellectual prowess ages ago. Now I'm waving aloha at your simple intellectual honesty.

[KrazyHorse]

Nice run and gun though, Aggie.

Your carefully-crafted reply has certainly proven nostromo's point that prior to the Greeks men wandered around pounding their heads against the ground because it was hopeless to even attempt any sort of rational planning for the future, given the fact that no phenomena whatsoever had yet been linked to anything other than the direct will of the gods. The pyramids were actually never built because nobody had yet conceived that soaking wood in water caused it to expand, cracking open a rock in which the wood had been placed.

What would you know anyway. You're basically a boring, self-absorbed soak who used to be amusing.

You're the only person on here who seems to have this insane need to prove how clever he is - you are always on about it. It's rather pathetic actually.

And now you've sunk to allying yourself with the biggest cretins on the site.

Nice job. You're on ignore because your trolls aren't even good any more.

The matriculation ceremony of the Department of Philosophy at University of Toronto has a long and storied history. Some have complained that it is a sadistic ritual which has no place in a modern educational institution, but the Chair of the department feels that this initiation really bonds the new graduate students together. Besides, he says, "it's not like it hurts the quality of their work".

Oh, and:

Why do you even bother? That dog don't hunt.

I would have provided a complete explanation with appropriate references of why you are completely wrong about the origins of systematized naturalistic explanation, but Nostromo already beat you down, and I find little to dispute in what he has said.

You need to stop drinking. You don't seem able to handle it.

If you want to troll me, go ahead and waste your time. I don't read virtually all of the ill informed and garbled trash you post.
