Words mean nothing LadyShea unless they coincide with reality. You could just as easily say Real time seeing = no time delay = no transfer of information through space/time.

Words are all we have to communicate with, and I chose the words that correspond with reality.
If we see with no speed of light delay, then we are gaining information across a distance with no speed of light delay, and that is not possible according to physics.
The physics may be wrong, but so far all the evidence points to Special Relativity being accurate. If you have some compelling evidence against it, I would be happy to look at it.

David, what you are not understanding is that the Hitler's of the world will be prevented from becoming Hitlers.

And they will have separate beds if they want to sleep alone. So what? They're doing that today.

Hey, don't knock what you haven't tried. In all seriousness, why are you trying to make Lessans look bad when a newcomer comes on this thread? Isn't that what you're trying to do?
12. To wake a child is to blame him for sleeping.
If you don't get that, I'm sorry. If someone is sleeping, it means his body desires sleeping. To wake him (unless it's an emergency of some sort) is a form of blame because it's saying to him in so many words, my desire to wake you is more important than your desire to sleep. But, of course, you don't get that either.
13. Doctors are bad.

The first chapter didn't posit a testable hypothesis, it was all philosophical musings. I disagree with Lessans reasoning as to why man's will is not free, but that isn't really an evidence based argument so I don't care.
The chapter on vision made specific scientific claims that have already been tested extensively, and all evidence points to Lessans being totally wrong about efferent sight and real time seeing.

Yes, of course, she is a nasty little liar. Only a liar or a monumentally stupid person could say what she said in the quoted part. I suppose she is both a liar and stupid, though.

It would seem that Peacegirl has an abundance of 'red gel' (mostly between the ears) in place of the grey matter that is supposed to be there. Or as Poirot says, the little grey cells, but I suspect that if Peacegirl has any at all they must be very little indeed.

You don't even understand the first chapter, so why do you think you are in the position to judge this chapter?
|
The first chapter didn't posit a testable hypothesis, it was all philosophical musings. I disagree with Lessans reasoning as to why man's will is not free, but that isn't really an evidence based argument so I don't care.

You don't see his proof, that's why. I saw your summary and it was lacking in understanding.

I don't see any conclusive evidence. It's amazing how theory can become accepted as fact, and if anyone disagrees they're looked down upon.

Pressures of the environment make one gay?
Got any evidence for this? I suspect it's the same amount of evidence you have for your other balderdash assertions: zero.
|
I think so. The environment has a lot to do with our behavior. I'm not saying it is the only thing, but it does play a part in some situations, not all.

Think about what? What makes you think it's probable that one "becomes gay" because of "pressures in the environment"? What pressures? What factors? You stated it was the removal of blame, specifically, that would cause homosexuality to decline [homosexual relationships] will naturally decline when all blame is removed from the environment. What does blame have to do with homosexuality?
Also it was asserted as fact, an obvious one to you apparently since you used the word "naturally", not posited as a possibility.

She has the same evidence she has for sight being efferent . . . none.
