It's really more of a philosophical word, here's a more appropriate source: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/metaphysics/#BeinSuchFirsCausUnchThin " If metaphysics now considers a wider range of problems than those studied in Aristotle’s Metaphysics, those original problems continue to...

Which is something that could not be done metaphysically before, and now it can be done. Ever since the computer was invented, A.I. became metaphysically possible. Computers enabled the metaphysical possibility of A.I. It was always logically possible, but it became metaphysically possible...

obv what you say here is untrue, otherwise everyone would agree with you. I mean they'd all already agree with you, like my example about the Sun's angle in the sky changing with the seasons, that's why I used that example, because there's zero dispute. There's dispute with the Euthyphro...

I know. But it does things like this: https://lite.cnn.com/2024/10/09/science/nobel-prize-chemistry-proteins-baker-hassabis-jumper-intl/index.html Which was my point. It's a new tool for us, never ever had one of these before. So the things that are now metaphysically possible to do (A.I...

Say your daily basal metabolic rate is 1965 calories. If you eat 150 grams of protein from skinless chicken breast every day, you'd also consume c. 20 grams of chicken fat also, so that's c. 780 calories. If you just ate that (with like some salt or mustard or vinegar or something basically...

We need Trump and Vance. Four more years.

We know how atoms work. They are 100% determinist until the Planck scale, and then it's statistical, like rolling dice or flipping coins. Meaning we can't discern cause-and-effect anymore, not saying there's not cause-and-effect, just saying that we ... Actually hold on. We do now know that...

It's never the guns at all. If we don't want Iran or North Korea to have the biggest guns for example, nuclear armed ballistic missiles, then it's still not the guns, and we should whenever we can afford to do it, invade, subdue and destroy their regimes and take over the countries and occupy...

So start with about 120 grams of protein a day. 160 grams is better but 120 grams is a good start. And it has to be discounted, according to how well your body digests it, which means your age (because your body digests protein worse as you get older) and the source. Protein powders are...

Well they both make my skin crawl when they talk, so there's that. :/

Well she's just one of J.D. Vance's kids then.

How old are you? Asking because it affects the answer.

Sometimes Aristotelian categories or predicaments help to clarify disputes like this. A substance or a nature is what a subject is (I mean a subject in the sense that a sentence is a subject plus a predicate), so God is God, He is His substance or nature, and Jesus is God, so He has always been...

Seems about right.

Somewhat. It's kind of more like, saying we can't build ourselves our own private fire station though on our own property, and drive around in a fire truck, and wear full fireman gear, and carry an ax in our truck, and install a fireman's pole in our house. Because only firemen can do that...

Four more years! If just for gun rights, and abortion, four more years! You can easily be a two-issue voter in this election, most elections you're reduced to a single-issue voter, but in this one you can easily be a two-issue voter, it makes it easier to pinch your nose when you cast your...

The study I saw definitely linked adult homosexual identifying men with being abused as a boy. There was as little doubt as there is that smoking two packs of cigrits¹ a day isn't good for you, as boys getting abused leads to homosexual identity. But the study I saw did not indicate that it...

Yeah. Kids don't learn from making their own mistakes, they need to be actively instructed and educated, otherwise they're not only likely but almost guaranteed to come up with the most bizarre and wrong ideas about how to live their lives when they grow up. I mean they're just not going to...

Yeah, the idea that homosexual inclination is genetic is D.O.A. for sure. It's not genetic. It might be lots of things, but it's not in the D.N.A.

Maybe you have involuntary, diabolic generated fantasies enter your thoughts sometimes, that's not coveting, but when you deliberately and knowingly fantasize, actively, then that's lust, or coveting. Maybe you lust after one of your offensively wealthy neighbor's Lamborghinis. Maybe your eyes...
