Philosophy - August 2006

It is a true drama living in today's world where complacency to all things stupid seem to be not only acceptable, but almost mandatory.

Let's make a consistent assumption or hypothesis:
"Every event in space-time is unique." That means every incident
in past,present and future can have only single value not multiple values. Although, multiple values can be assigned to a future event
but that implies probability and our ignorance about the future.
Also, let's make another hypothesis:
"Every event is connected by cause and effect."
Now, let's say that somebody knows what will happen in some particular future. Now, he decides to change that event. What will happen? According to the second hypothesis--he will either forget
his decision or some unknown force will prevent him to change the event[1].
Now if that person disclosed his prediction to another person, the second person might as well predict about the above outcome[1].
So, does that make the second person another prophet--if he applied the above 2 hypotheses?

Before answering I suggest you look up what an "a priori synthetic statement/proposition" is. The Q is only for true philosophers or truly interested students of philosophy interested in becoming true philosophers.

I just can't understand what's with the world' obsession with sports, It has always been my least favorite interest, What's the point if a team wins or loses?!! I mean why should we care?! I think the people who really deserve recognition, wealth, and all the luxuries of this life are the scientists, researchers, etc... Whom we owe our modern and comfortable life to, Ironically most big shot athletes are unintelligent and been lazy at school! Don't you agree with me?
Before you answer just take a moment to imagine your life without technology and your life without sports, Which one would you pick?

People in the developed rich countries spend Trillions on cosmetic useless things, Many of them are obese 'cause of over eating, On the other hand the unlucky ones in many parts of the Globe live on less than $1 a day, and some look like walking skeletons 'cause of lack of food, malnutrition, etc...
How come The Almighty who's full of mercy and just allows all this suffering?
