Arts & Humanities > Philosophical Concepts Is there such a thing as absolute truth: 1 of 37
Reading recently in Quine's book on 'The Philosophy of Logic' I had moved on through a chapter on grammar on to one of truth. Quine's approach to the salient features of grammar is from the point of view of a logician and linguist rather than as a grammarian. The question of is there an absolute truth would probably be answer... More..
Sciences > Earth Science (Other) Is human space travel to the planet Mars too dangerous?: 1 of 37
N.A.S.A.'s record for safe space travel is not excellent. Their standard of blowing things up on the way to Mars probably will be equaled in some way-I would guess that government contractors probably profit more than a little when disaster's occur anyway. N.A.S.A. does not design low cost, efficient interplanetary space vehi... More..

"300", The Alamo and sundry other martial arts adventure films of an historical nature provided and ambient background themes and social conditioning agent for the Bush administration-if only 'Kill Bill' had been released earlier in the Bush II administration the Al Gore Nobel Academy Award in recognition of his efforts to pr...

Religion & Spirituality > Comparative Religion Why most religions prohibit premarital sex: 1 of 35
That 'most religions' prohibit premarital sex presupposes a particular finite set of religions as representative of all. There may be more religions that have no opinion about sex than those that do-its difficult say if we consider all of the historical pagan religions that have come and gone. However we shall attempt to cons... More..
Religion & Spirituality > Christianity (Other) God is with you: 1 of 35
God is with everyone or everyone is with God; every possible creation of good may have been created as part of His will-each Universe that could exist has existed since eternity and out portion of life in one such Universe was predetermined and always was, though we realize just part through a glass darkly each time (even if ...

Politics, News & Issues > Environmental Awareness Population growth, poverty and environmental degradation: 1 of 32
A scalar field may increase all of the elements within its range of sets at an equal pace or not. The ratios of balances of field elements in a physically modeled ontology may not all increase in the same way; real physical relationships often occur in ways such that some decrease simultaneous with the increase of others. Hu... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Politics, News & Issues (Other) Ideas for combating voter apathy: 1 of 29
In federal elections the government should pay each registered voter $50 dollars for casting a vote-the money should be mailed to the voter's registered mailing address or go toward the tax bill for the year. It will help to verify voter registration roles and give voters a reason to believe federal elections are worth anythi... More..
Politics, News & Issues > Politics, News & Issues (Other) Can democracy survive in a politically correct world?: 1 of 28
Sam's Club & the Judas Economy...Democracy is about individual liberty and political primacy; corporatism and other forms of neo-authoritarianism such as socialism are about the primacy of collectives under the authority of elites; presently the collectives with elite ruler-ship are on the assent with control of the broadcast...

Sciences > Physics Determine the best sources of energy for the future: 1 of 28
The best forms of energy use are functions of how energy is used. Intellectual energy is of the highest priority. A lethargic nation intellectually will create far more problems that were avoidable than it needed to. Those who forget the future are doomed to repeat it, may be a truism exemplified by the reliance upon fossils,... More..
Arts & Humanities > Ethics Beyond the principles of good and evil: 1 of 28
The unprincipled realm 'beyond good and evil 'was pioneered formally by the 19th century German philosopher of the eternal recurrence Fredrich Nietzsche. He had many forefathers and foremothers in the effort to move beyond good and evil in the pagan histories he so admired. The Cult of Dionysius was one such ancient Greek myt... More..
