animals, oh where is the "humanity" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHP0ETuMBwE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xoh_68ljvIo sure animals will try and help their same kin or the cute little baby--no surprise there but look at the inter-species cooperation and help is that beyond a good Samaritan ?

stand strong britain this us presidential primary season should be an example and major wake up call for the world.

seems as appropriate a thread as any to mention june 6 is the anniversary of D-Day.

it is easier to get around the site today but it isnt completely fixed.

serendipity

join together band together while you can do you have a constitution? apech mentioned the us constitution, remarkable document that it is, norway and iceland are standing strong. surely britain would do fine on its own

reminder

Iceland continues to inspire me. i would be surprised in a good way if brexit happens, i aint holding my breath on it

hi, just now having time to look at this thread. from the opening post The statement which really sums up objectivism is: existence is identity; consciousness is identification is there any distinction made between existence and being? existence is prior to consciousness sartre said that existence precedes essence do you draw distinctions between what i quoted of yours and sartre? does objectivism think that nothing/ no-thing/ nothingness exists? objectivism thinks we are creatures with free will ? are there any limits to this free will ?

sounds like an identity thief's paradise

VK, interesting post, are you able to provide links or citations to the lines that i italicized ?

Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner set in the ancient past, it is a retelling of an Inuit legend that has been passed thru generations/centuries in the oral tradition.

if only vmarco were here

i aint sure about the dao part but the bum part, i got that down i reckon if dao were natural and carefree i would be a carefree natural bum

tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered, yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph

is there such an englishman can accomplish this? i think in the past there may have been a few that maybe could have pulled it off. i am no expert , have never been there. its just another european country where some of my blood comes from. but yeah, i think there have been some remarkable thinkers from there, a rare few-- and of those types,the rare few thinkers, they are rare wherever you may look for them..... and again i am so ignorant of british history my limited view of it , kinda goes like this---at key times when there was an opportunity to move towards and i hate to use this word, freedom, at those times and we know those times only come around so often, maybe once in a hundred years sometimes, (it really is the duty of every generation) my view has been that in those moments the english tend to agree to some general submission. it needs to be the will of the people , a determined will of a determined people. i think the american west still has this type of determination. it would be interesting if other pockets of resistance/ resilience/ independent/ reason/ type nations could get their brave on and test these waters. Iceland is trying. this might be the only chance, i would vote on this issue if i was there. but last year or whenever it was i was rooting for scotland independence too and a grexit.
