Do you think it's possible to have a truly original thought? Something that no one has ever thought of before? Why (or why not) do you believe this?

This was something I was thinking about at work today :)

Hey, I get if if you don't know the definition,but doesn't 'undefinable' mean you think the word has no meaning?

Isn't the prerequsite of philosophy at least an attempt to define the ideas you are exploring?

My sister says, "people should not speak badly of the dead". But I say, if a person was a mean,rude,son of a bitc#$%% when they were alive, being dead does not make them nice. What do yall think? Was Hitler suddenly a saint because the freak died? I think not!

.
Or will they eventually be paying us (i.e. dispensable, mortal humans) to do all the hard work for them?
.
Or would they eventually get rid of us altogether, realizing that we are inefficient and expensive to maintain and they can easily employ basic non-conscious robot models to do the dirty/slave work for them, instead?
.
.
The future certainly looks BRIGHT, won’t you say? …Yeah, just NOT for us humans. :-)

i think i agree with him. i dont like morals and have always felt they were a social construct.

BUT, there are of course some things i wouldnt do. like rape, murder, etc. to me i wouldnt do those things simply for the fact that it would have a negative impact on me psychologicaly.

even though i dont have morals, human beings are still born with a conscience. and thats fact. it is independent of morals.

is it wrong of me to adopt his views?

Schwartzneggar said that Tookie had murdered 5 people and had never expressed any remorse. I can not understand why his lawyer would have not told him to say he was sorry. You see it in trials all the time. Something is fishy there.

Though God is unlimited and know by many names Like Krishna, Allah, Jehovah, Vishnu, Rama, etc.) Krishna is superior to all of His unlimited expansions. Though Lord Vishnu is Krishnas' direct expansion, Krishna is superior in 4 qualities (This is according to Krshna Himself-In Srimad Bhagavatam.) Kindly name them.
Blasphemy and rude remarks will be reported.

You know, like not saying, "This ship is unsinkable!" or "What else could go wrong?" or "Who's your Daddy?" to a much younger woman?
