What fight is this? A fight with likes of me? |
what are you like ? |
This is a philosophical discussion peace train. Do not bother posting messages that does not contribute anything.. |
You asked me a question and I can't answer until I know what you are like. Are you saying you are philosophical? And you never answered my question about mental development. I think it was a valid question as you had mentione physical and sexual development. |
peace train, i think, from what i read in Alpha's posts that mental developement concerns understanding and avoiding the limitation of awareness. what he said in my opinion (and understanding) is ...briliant. |
Thank you alpha.

Quoting AlphaF:
Having observed that sexual maturity in both genders are reached approximately at ages 12-14, and yet full physical maturity in both sexes are delayed until age of 20, he is now curious whether this order should actually have been the opposite..ie. physical maturity coming before the sexual maturity - or at least simultaneously.
end of quote
quoting peace train
Sorry I am so thick and have a lack of awareness. I read this paragraph and was curious to know what youe friend felt about adding the consideration of mental maturity. In the age range you mention there is a school of thought that believes females attain mental maturity sooner tham males. I wasn't trying to be clever. I REALLY did want to know your take on this.
I have thought about the 'fishy' business you mentioned and one can really begin to "meet oneself coming backwards". I am inclined to agree with AEnigma in one view ie. I now know the reason for my madness.

Quoting catwoman: Quoting peace train: I am reading the posts in sequence. prayer and raki? |
Well, then they confused the sequence. It's
1. raki
2. prayer
That's how it normally goes. |
Yes, it goes something like...Oh God, Please stop the room from spinning...I drank too much Raki!

Quoting AEnigma III: I spent a few years delving into philosophy and have reached the conclusion that such introspection and life-theories, whilst very interesting, lead nowhere and could actually drive you to madness!!!
I do wonder how the religious can read Plato, for example, and be able to see past their own beliefs... |
AEnigma, it think it depends on whether or not you are religious in a way that makes you follow all the dogma or if you are religious because you feel there is a God. I wonder if most people feel like me? I don't feel like my religion is the only one true religion. I feel that my religion is only one path to God. Because I was raised in a certain religion, it is how I feel most comfortable acknowledging my belief in God.
I do feel that some things do have meaning, but does that mean nothing is arbitrary? Why can't the two coexist? If there was a divine meaning in everything or if everything is an act of fate...then I can just sit back and let my life happen...I really believe life is a mixture of both.

But was this all part of some grand scheme? If there is no dinner, will it disrupt the space time continuem?
