Philosophy - November 2006

Is it possibal that all things that were to happen have already happend and we are simply perceiving it one moment at a time? Since when you reflect on the past you can remeber years at a time. At the end of time will all that has happend be a mear moment of reflection? What do you think?

I'm not interested in any holy book's version of God. I want to hear your personal opinion.

Several questions ago I asked about the appropriateness of manipulating hypotheticals (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Al2tgGfK2tnd9ffbV7S7.yjsy6IX?qid=20061129032257AArF4fE) when the elements therein aren't very implausible. What I want to do here is give an example of the kind of manipulation I was thinking of, but my example will probably be controversial and offensive to some.

In the question, linked below, the asker, albeit without as much tact as perhaps he could have used, asked men how they would respond to women that are not sexually giving or receiving. My own answer was not the most respectful either. But my problem is that several respondents apparently assumed that the women were likely not as defined, and that the problem is likely one of a man not being "romantic" enough. While that's possibly true in most cases in real life, does not the asker have the right, even if insensitive, to ask a question using specific character models?

Where should more money go?
To help the leading edge of society's best and brightest maximise their (and society's) potential for brilliance or to support the needy and borderline cases of society?

"You are the representative of whatever you represent.
I am the representative of whatever I represent."

Both science and philosophy try their best to refuse this.
Philosophy and science are the arts to say and conclude" I am not what I am".

WHAT IS YOUR OPINION ON MY STATEMENT?

i dislike it when people bring up the topic of are we all illusions, is the world even real, etc etc. i'm not saying this because i'm narrow minded, i'm just saying that people should open their eyes and be like okay, i'm pretty solid, i'm here so that must mean i'm real. i doubt a whole universe can be created in your minds and that you can live in it forever. that just doesn't make sense to me...
i'm not saying that i doen't believe that abstract concepts such as math (b/c it does kind of exist only in your heads) doesn't exist. when people are like we're not real i feel like kicking them. it is depressing to hear them talk like that because who wants to hear that their life is just something imaginary?
if anyone would like to convince me to think otherwise, i'll be happy to reconsider/reevaluate my ideas

I'm doing a debate for a philosophy class. I have to argue that souls exist. Any suggestions? I'm trying to steer away from talking about the afterlife. Thanks.
