Truth is Relative (Not Subjective) or the Coherence Theory of Truth
Carl Green replied to Josh F's topic in Philosophy
nobody (the member) showed me this YT channel. I've been finding it very helpful in explaining philosophical topics like this. Things are often explained in both the 'pure' logical terms, which often go over my head, and in examples, which I can sometimes understand. They're all short and concise which I really appreciate. https://youtu.be/Oyf0vHpdIFs?list=PLz0n_SjOttTdtycrFYOrO9zxszamWbSimh -

I owe Stefan Molyneux at least a couple hundred dollars
Carl Green replied to BradleyHillman's topic in Miscellaneous
By any means necessary my friend. Doesn't have to be by getting them to watch FDR videos. Just get people to start seeing the gun in the room and the benefits of peaceful parenting. Think of it as the person being a lock, and you have to find the correctly 'shaped' key. (unless the lock is rusted shut, than just move on) -
I owe Stefan Molyneux at least a couple hundred dollars
Carl Green replied to BradleyHillman's topic in Miscellaneous
I'm not an expert by any means, just gonna offer potential research leads. You have a natural cannabinoid system. I think this system has a part in regulating things like mood and such. Since you were horribly subjected to amphetamines (my sincere sympathies for this Bradley) during development, I think it might be possible that some of these systems were affected and changed. For example, if you were getting exterior sources of mood regulating chemicals, the natural systems will be less productive and more dependent, and might leave you that way after development. I'm not sure if quitting anything will eventually get your body to produce these things more naturally, similar to how you would have been producing them without the drugs. That being said, there are still other reasons to quit, like it costing too much money right now and the "I'll just gradually cut my usage down" approach is extremely tough even if you have an iron will. Maybe consider switching to edibles/cooking it if you're currently smoking it. Then you'll still be getting the chemicals but the habit part changes and might be more controllable in a sense. If you go the full abstinence route, I guess just be prepared for a period of time where the lows are lower than usual because you're still in the process of trying to reset your systems. Getting through that is tough but not impossible. ---- Now, as for the main topic of the thread title, I bet if you just get a few people around you to even start thinking about 'voluntaryist peaceful living' by being engaging and talking with people, Stefan and company might call it even for now -

Ah okay. So you're thinking there's a sort of slippery slope with defending others being valid it sounds like. Very possible I guess, especially depending on the situation. I just have one point of dispute with the rest of that though, regarding an over-reaction being justifiable. The prefix word 'over' is there for a reason. To indicate that it's too much. Either a defense is justified and not over-reaction, or it's not justified which then makes it considered over.

Would you make the one-way trip to Mars? (Mars=penal colony?)
Carl Green replied to AccuTron's topic in Science & Technology
the hydrogen and oxygen fuel to leave would be harvested/generated from the existing water on the planet. (assuming that's the system used) I'm thinking it would be unwise to trust your billions of dollars worth of equipment in the hands of 'criminals'. That being said, I've thought about it before. I wouldn't go if I were the only person going, but if I were a part of a larger group I'd start considering it. (assuming it's privately funded and not paid for by stolen money as McBeer points out below) -
Hello and welcome, Jayden. Would you care to share how you feel about politics in general, and perhaps what you think is currently the biggest political issue these days?

Fibber (as evidenced by you responding after only one post)

Fibber --------------------- (I intended for this to be a separate post but it automatically added it to the part above when I tried) If ANYONE has a peaceful parenting pamphlet, flyer, leaflet, etc. that they'd like to distribute but can't afford to make the copies, I will gladly make them for you and ship them to you. Nice laser printing too. I only need the digital file to print. Any size up to 11x17.

What about insurance fraud investigation? Private investigator? Regardless, this made me very happy reading this this morning. I wish I could give you better advice than two off-the-cuff answers.

It could also be possible that people associate with those they can relate to. Not necessarily that who they're hanging out with determines what type of person they are. Maybe both have an affect. I'm no expert on the matter, that's for sure.

Brick Wall makes statement of opinion. Brick Wall receives new information. Brick Wall dismisses new information and continues to repeat statement of opinion. Repeat as necessary until everyone figures out they're talking to a brick wall. - It's pretty clear Kaz ain't changing his mind on this. He's certain that his opinion is accurate regardless of the lack of evidence. And what are the chances that even one person with the same opinions as Kaz is going to read this entire thread in the future and change their mind. ....what a waste.

Neither has what we've been trying to put forth. So why are you so sure it won't work, or so sure that it'd fail the way you've imagined in your head? Just to be clear, I would very much rather be in the system you're advocating for than what we have now, but it's still not true freedom.
