Wait, you've all been noticing a bunch of coincidences lately?

Well, geez. Welcome to reality people. Coincidences happen. They always have happened.

There is no way to understand and believe all of the wild, baseless claims people make. There are millions upon millions of conflicting, incredible and implausible ideas out there. The vast majority have to be false.

The only way we have to differentiate the good from the bad is science.

Welcome to reality people. Coincidences happen. They always have happened.

Of course... But not at the same frequency. I think what they meant is that there is an increase in the frequency of "coincidences" from their own perceptions. And I agree with them.  :tongue:

There is no evidence of increased coincidence frequency. Can you point to the database that showcases this?

The proof is in the pudding.

LOL

Notice I said "from their own perception".

What database could showcase coincidences anyway?

So from one's extremely limited perspective, they can extrapolate that the entire world is experiencing the same thing?

With no description of what the change is or when it will happen, not even time will tell. These statements are so nebulous as to be totally meaningless in any context.

I really enjoy your presence at this forum. You make thoughtful intelligent remarks with a minimum of flaming.

However:

"The only way we have to differentiate the good from the bad is science."

That statement is undeniably, incontrovertibly, unarguably, unequivocally, false.


This is to say that philosophy plays no role in man's understanding. Some would have it that philosophy is a subset of science but in all actuality the opposite is the case.

Philosophy rocks hard!

Cheers,

How can philosopy be the opposite of science?
I can see how you could refute the claim of philosophy being a science, but they are really very closely related. They both are about acheiving a higher understanding of our world.

flow, welcome to the Shroomery and our Forum! :smile:

I did not mean that they were opposites.  I agree with you.

Science was born from philosophy.  In age, it outranks it.

Cheers,

I would think it Philosophy and Science kinda work together. I mean philosophy can give great theroies of to why people act or do the things they do. As also some sciences. If you try to split the 2 apart it would be like paddleing on one side of the boat and causes you to go in circles. But if they work together they can move forward in the Lake of Knowledge.

well maybe you are not in tune with the things we see, like a sleeper lying in bed oblivious to the world around them. Maybe we are open to certain things because of the experiences in our lives, maybe there is something in common between all of us that we believe or know which links us to these feeling, maybe its a change within us because of this road of "belief" or "knowledge" which we have followed down. When you try to tap in to something which you have no understanding or experience in you can clearly say as you have that its so nebulous and unclear that it is deamed as meaningless. its not meaningless to those that feel these "changes" it naturally signifies something changing within us. and more importanlty the world around us.

I wasn't discussing my awareness or knowledge level, but that fact that these pronouncements have as much clarity as a fortune cookie. "You will have good luck in the future." The statement iself has no meaning and cannot be measured as having come to pass or not.

The proof is in the pudding.

There is also no evidence to the contrary either.

how useless is this getting guys?

"you can't prove that."
"well you can't disprove it."

I'm starting to notice many threads here end out like that.

gee why don't we just mark "soon" on our calendars and see what happens?


--------------------
Insert an "I think" mentally in front of eveything I say that seems sketchy, because I certainly don't KNOW much. Also; feel free to yell at me.
