science changes because its being improved on as we grow more intelligent and come up with better ways to learn things. Further improving our understanding of our reality doesnt make it a farce.

If science relies on hard, cold fact, then why does it completely change so often then? Humans only know what they percieve. Reality = shit.

"re?al?i?ty ( P ) Pronunciation Key (r-l-t)
n. pl. re?al?i?ties
The quality or state of being actual or true.
One, such as a person, an entity, or an event, that is actual: ?the weight of history and political realities? (Benno C. Schmidt, Jr.).
The totality of all things possessing actuality, existence, or essence.
That which exists objectively and in fact: Your observations do not seem to be about reality."

ok here I see there is difference between existence and essence vs.  that which exists obejctively: your observations do not  seem to be about reality."

this is all about the nature of existence itself.  it's shitty I have to go to work right now  :thumbdown:

been very cool debating with your mr freeze.  at least you don't revert to name calling or other childish acts.  :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2: :mushroom2:

i have hopes we can continue this debate at some other time (like later today :wink:)

Annnnnnd I had a light saber and my friend was there and I said "you look like an indian" and he said "you look like satan" and he found a stick and a rock and he named the rock ooga booga and he named the stick Stick and we both thought that was pretty funny. We got eaten alive by mosquitos but didn't notice til the next day. I stepped on some glass while wading in the swamp and cut my foot open, didn't bother me til the next day either....yeah it was a good time, ended the night by buying some liquor for minors and drinking nips and going to he diner and eating chicken fingers, and then I went home and went to bed.

science relies on a certain type of logic.  just like philosophy has it's own certain type of logic.  philosophy changes, jsut like science does, doesn't make it BS.

this comp is running, as is my fridge.

quite simply, science works, it's jsut not the ONLY thing that works  :laugh:

If you prove it, it will become fact. Otherwise, we work on what we have to work with :P

Ignoring it doesnt make it go away.

Many cases in science have been "proved" and then "proved" wrong after all. :rolleyes:

Thats the nature of science and how it works. Do you ahv a better method? Maybe we can just make shit up and guess based on shamans, priests and old stories.

Dont be so angry that science works, and has hard lined definitions and methods of proving and disproving things, and that you really just didnt understand a simple definition of a word.

Okay okay, how do you explain this then?

Picture the scene, girl walks into bar, your mate turns to you and says "phwoarrr look at that hotty". You turn back in disgust and say "what are you thinking man, she's butt-ugly".

that's a matter of taste. if you say the world is a sphere (because it's a fact) and your buddy sais it's flat it's not flat.

so what I mean is; beauty is subjective :smirk:

People wouldn't have the opinions they do if they didn't believe themselves to be correct.

come on, opinions are personal.

"in my opinion this pizza tastes good!"

"really? because in my opinion it's disgusting!"

neither is 'correct'. it only applies to the person who sais it.


a fact is a fact because it is so for everyone and you can't argue about it.

Just because the majority agree with something by no means does it make it correct.

When it comes to science, yes it does.

You need to read up on the scientific method for establishing fact, as well as go back to middle school where you are taught the difference between facts and opinions.

The fact is reality is defined.

you not liking that is opinion.
