I don’t actually switch between logic types in the way you might think. I use them in different situations, and most of the times I use them both. Not only does this allow for different views on the world, it allows me to understand the people using those viewpoints, and to argue with them better. I’d also prefer to call myself a religious scientist, not alternating between religious and secular. They’re not mutually exclusive. Scientifically, I discover and claim what is feasible. Religiously, I believe in specific ideas that cannot be proven scientifically. I don’t let the latter clash with the former, and in fact if the former clashes with the latter, it changes. So, God didn’t create the Earth 6000 years ago, because that is a scientific fact. My particular view of God isn’t disproven, so that’s what I can religiously believe in. I hope that makes it somewhat clear.

Thanks for the compliments. =p

Free time, yes, but you yourself stated you’re thinking over it during tests. That’s either a problem for you or with the education you’re following. But okay, that has nothing to do with solipsism. I have no problems with the consequences of solipsism on an individual in their free time, just on society.

“I have no problems with the consequences of solipsism on an individual in their free time, just on society”
And you could say the exact same about anything people do other than work, sleep, or eat.

No, I couldn’t. You’re misunderstanding my posts. Everyone can do whatever they like in their free time (within legal limits), but if you don’t eat or sleep due to feeling it might as well just be a bomb strapped to your belt that goes off, you’ll be a strain on society. If you don’t do your work properly or don’t finish school exams because you believe doing them properly might just as well mean you’re doing them improperly, you’ll be a drain on society. I currently understand your tests are too easy, which may pose to be a problem, but understand working will be much, much more difficult. And I don’t think they tolerate solipsism much in the sense of “I should be getting paid for doing nothing, because it is equally as much true that doing nothing is a good thing for the firm as is working hard”.

Okay, don’t go throwing those arguments at me, I’m not the one deciding on it. =p Look, I don’t mind you asking these questions, but I can’t help you any further than pointing out the administrators.

Wasn’t quoting anything. Just noting you have the tendency to make issues black and white, leaving no option for a grey area. Perhaps not always, but since I also see many others noting the same thing about your arguments (Vika included), I could definitely compare as they would understand.

No offense intended.

One could eventually end up with the same BotD as some time ago, meaning you earn free points. Remember that you don’t actually get something on your profile for the BotD other than extra points.

Collecting stuff has been going on for ages, and it is not just in games even now. Remember that one uncle collecting stamps? The father collecting old coins? The brother collecting comic books? The friend collecting flags from every country? That doesn’t require the internet, to say the least.

I find the last paragraph to sound like trolling, so you’d better explain yourself properly.

I am sorry if you thought I was trolling with that last statement, so I will try to explain the last part better .
I am a lot more free spoken when I speak to Mods than I would with any user on this site so I was most likely too open with you about it .
If I came off as arrogant or as trollish it wasn’t my intention and if I was I sincerely apologize to you, I am very sorry.

In the last statement it wasn’t about the internet but about the need for people to simply collect anything in general but after re-reading what I had wrote I can easily see how you would think that the whole statement was only about online badges, I should have made that point very clear but I didn’t.

Again , I apologize if I came off as dis-respectful or rude towards you, it was not my plan nor my intention to offend you.

No harm’s done, no worries. ;)

I’m not into psychology, so I honestly don’t know why people do it, but as I said it’s just human nature to want it. I don’t believe the loss of anyone or anything is the direct cause.
