Philosophy - June 2007

For example, if we create super intelligent robots, and some fools program them to learn and recognise their rights, this could mean a terminator 3.

As we expand on Earth, building more cities and roads, our forests and clear space are dissapearing.

Why do we continually need to take up more space? We could advance in technology, yes, but what is the need to destroy Earth or create beings that are more intelligent than ourselves?

Why can't we have a future with trees, sunlight, rain, weather and the things unique to Earth? Technology doesn't mean destruction, so why is the Earth dying as we advance? Why the need for an expanding population? It just lowers the quality of life for all of us.

Of course we got our arrogant and conceited clods who think they are "perfect". But the reality is humans are not perfect. And that includes me. Some religious, especially Christians, think humans can be "perfect" by being "saints". Or some intellectual idiots think is the economic systems, Marxists and others, that makes us humans "imperfect". Or Nietzsche, the German philosopher, who thought humans can evolve to become "perfect". Or Scientologists, crooks they are, who think humans can reach "perfections" through "auditing thethans", or whatever. I say is all balony. Humans are not perfect and will never be perfect. What do you think?

I don't want text book definitions, I can get that in a dictionary! Anyone have a legitimate arguement as to what exactly "loyalty" is? Does it even exist or is it something we made up ourselves? Please discuss

does he want to have sex again? Shouldn't once be enough to prove that you love him? Why does he want it again every day? Is it insecurity?

My motto, is not to condemn other folk, as in probability I have done similar, in my forgotten history.

when it feels like your heart & stomach have been carved out...when it's hard to take a breath...when you can't eat or sleep and the stress & the sadness are unbearable & it feels like the ground is crumbling beneath your feet & you're stuck at work so you don't even have the luxury of being able to curl into a ball & cry...?

This is just a phase everyone.
I feel better when watching films on the end of the world, you know some natural disaster, hand of God, aliens,monsters, robuts and meteors.
I'll tell you why. I have hope, that when the world does end, people will fight together as it once was and not tearing at eachother like wild animals. I patiently wait for the day of days to come, for the sky break open again, for people to put aside their petty and mundane differences.
It's coming soon anyway. I can't describe my feelings or my terrible dreams and memories. I know that if i tell you anymore, i'll be marked as "crazy". It is not a belief of religion, it is know, it is, just.

Does love suffer from perennial insecurity that it needs verbal reassurance every other day?

does anyone ever feel like no matter where you go, what you try to do, change yourself/change the world, never changes?
Like your doomed to live this out and no matter what you try to do to change this course in life, it doesn't. You'll always be known as the "lone wolf" or "loner". Never get the girl, never get the job, never get out of your own head, never make better friends, never get away from all the dark things that make you miserable and lonely. I don't know. I'm just asking. Feel free to do as you please....

I lost my dad in June and we buried him on my son's first birthday.

I lost my baby boy in the month of June.

I lost my baby daughter in the month of June.

Last year on my birthday, June 24th I got the call my mom was dying, I rushed to the hospital and held her all day long in her bed while she was dying, for four days I held her until she opened her eyes and looked at me and let out her final breath.

The entire month of June now I walk around like I don't exist and memories flood my mind with such pain it is unbearable at times.

June for me is the worst month for me to get through. Was wondering if anyone else has had soooooo much pain happen in one month

for repentance to a human being that make big mistakes and poor desicions in life. This penalty will not bring back the lives or happiness of the their victims back..it only claims revenge..Why become like them??.Why don't we let them reflec on their behaviour and be their counsciousness to punish them? That will be enough suffering don't you think?... They have to be away from the people too, so they don't cause more harm.
