Not that I need any real reason to get a 3DS, but this does help.

« on: September 28, 2010, 02:07:24 AM »I've also used this argument before. Basically everything is subjective so why discuss anything ever? The murderer thought he was justified, it is his reality and his beliefs, so he should not be punished. There are no absolutes ever. Everyone decides what is right for themselves. So of course there are no rights for anyone but yourself if you believe it is so. No reason to listen to the government. No personal responsibility because no one is rational and able to think for themselves. And of course we are not an ever learning people who learn that lighting isn't from a god. Hell making up the concept of a god, of morality, of being more than animals seems damn logical and thoughtful to me.
If a person murders someone and believes he's justified, it's because it's what he believes, further proving my point. However, laws are in place to punish someone like that in an attempt to keep societal order. Whether one chooses to follow those laws and maintain order is entirely up to them. And actually, there are absolutes. Math has absolutes. 1+1=2. Ultimately though, you're missing my point. There are reasons to listen to the government. Whether or not you choose to is up to you. Most people are rational and able to think for themselves, however their thoughts and rationality are most likely based upon the experiences in their own life. And clearly, we are a learning people because if we weren't, we wouldn't even be having this discussion on the internet right now.

But hey, let's just assume everyone who gets a sexual assignment surgery doesn't think it out and is impulsive. Everyone who has religion is illogical as well!
LoL, I'd love to know where this is coming from.

I know that some strings of philosophy say everything is subjective. But that you choose to believe that is just as much of a belief.
......I'm pretty sure I said that.

I know I'm taking the 'slippery slope' argument but then again you've got your fallacies as well.

Also emotions have reasons. I am sad because my puppy died. Someone with bipolar have a reasons, even minor to some, to trigger their emotional shift.
Emotions have reasons, yes. However, those reasons are not logical.
Quote
There isn't an emotion for I want a [ray splasher] or I want my [ray splasher] cut off. You can't compare that to emotions. It's a thought process.
Actually, you can very easily compare it to emotions. Because if you compare it to logic, then it makes no sense at all. Neither does being gay. Homosexuality is, by definition, a biological illogical. It goes against the biological reproductive purposes of human beings. But clearly it happens. If I'm correct, scientists are actually trying to explore a genetic reason as to why this takes place. In other words, they are trying to explore a logical, scientific reason for this. However, I doubt many RPMers are scientists in this regard, so I sincerely doubt you are going to find a logical, rational explanation for this.
Just to be clear, I have absolutely no issue with homosexuality or transgender in any way whatsoever.
It's a feeling. That's what it is. For me, it's a feeling of wrongness, that the [ray splasher] SHOULD NOT be there. The shell I reside in does not match my soul. That's one way I like to put that. All I'm trying to do (as are other transgenders) is to get the outside to match the inside, the body to match the brain. Because, honestly, it's much easier to do the former than it is to do the latter. And if one were to succeed in the latter (probably via total brainwashing, as that's the only way I can envision succeeding at that) it would be cruel to the person involved. For all we are trying to do is be truly happy.
And to be honest, now that I'm on hormones, I've never been happier in my life. And I know that after the operation, I'll be even happier than I am now, impossible though it may seem.
Hence my point. This isn't a logical response. It's emotional. The part I bolded is especially important.

And PB, last time this was brought up regarding me, you locked the topic under the "no pride posts" banner. So... yeah.
[Yes, I remember]
Nooooo, I locked that topic because there's a huge difference between coming out to people you trust and like, and creating an entire topic solely based entirely upon yourself and every single detail that you felt you needed to let out. Every. Single. Detail. Entirely. ABOUT. YOU! I also locked it for the same reason I tend to lock all these type of topics that are brought up here; because ultimately this is a forum about a video game character's universe. Yours wasn't the first, and it most likely will not be the last. Ares decided to keep this going. If anything, judging by the already emotional reactions to what I've brought up, it will end up like most other topics of this nature, I will soon put a stop to it.
But for now, I'm going to go eat.

« on: September 28, 2010, 01:24:39 AM »I guess that means we shouldn't think at all. That the very notion of trying to is wasted. Why then do we have sapience... eh, this isn't exactly what I came here to observe, since this kind of argument is horribly seedy and I do believe my kitty will state what I'm thinking anyway.
You're missing the point entirely. You're asking for a logical explanation to questions that by definition are NOT logical. You're asking for logical answers to emotional questions, questions that by definition are illogical. Why do you think Vulcans suppressed emotions and embraced logic?
What I gave you was the most logical answer there is, essentially. Whether you choose to agree with it or not is up to you. Whether you choose to agree with anything I say or not is up to you. That's what I'm trying to get across.

« on: September 28, 2010, 01:15:25 AM »But that's honestly a lazy response. As humans, we are capable of being more creative, objective and rational about things. Everyone has the TOOLS to think logically and she wants to see different forms of logic.
Not a subjectively neutral response.
No offense.
I said the answer was basic and simple.
And to be honest, no matter how creative, objective, and rational you get, you eventually will come up with the same answer I just gave you. Because overall, that is how humanity works. That is how life works. If anything, the problem is that people think TOO hard about the mundane [parasitic bomb] like this.
That's quite the generalization. So people don't have logical reasons for what they do? Everything is blindly 'just to get by'? No one in the world thinks things through?
I happen to disagree. And I am curious about the logics and opinions of others.
Why would a logical, rational person believe in magical talking snakes? Why would a logical, rational person believe that lightning was thrown down by a shiny bearded man on Mt. Olympus? Why would a logical, rational person believe that a human being with different colored skin is superior to another? Because they believe those explanations to be logical & rational. The majority of one person's existence is entirely based upon the experiences and observations in their own life, and that is what generally makes their opinions or beliefs logical in their own mind. Just like you disagreeing with me is because of what you believe.

All your questions have a pretty basic and simple answer: People believe what they want to believe in order to get by in life. This can be applied to just about every philosophical discussion you can ask, whether it be about racism, sexism, transgender, politics, religion, quality of art, pokemon, and so on.

« on: September 26, 2010, 08:50:40 PM »You're all now aware Sonic 4 will come in four parts, the whole thing totaling $60.
You're all also now aware that Sega will not do a physical release once all four parts are out.
Honestly, it's still kinda stupid. If you're going to charge full disc price, then I don't see why they don't just release a physical disc of it. I mean, it's nice for gamers, for if they don't like it they can just not buy all of it. However, in terms of business, it's kinda stupid for the exact same reason.

Well.......that's kinda ballsy. I mean, if you're gonna charge $45 bucks, you might as well release the whole damn thing as one game on a disc for that much, rather than make people wait Episode by Episode right when they're getting into the game.
I dunno, this seems pretty stupid.

« on: September 25, 2010, 08:19:56 AM »I hoped Superboy would stay dead. Just so someone would. Then again, no one stays dead in comic books.
Though, on that subject, I actually felt sad for Hank Henshaw when the Manhunters brought him back at the end of the Sinestro Corps and he's got that single tear.
At least DC has given an awesome reason as to why they don't stay dead!
And yeah, poor Cyborg-Superman!
