it sounds nice but thats all it does, a word to the wise: don't try to build a hidden "meaning" when it isn't there, either be tricky or be straight forward but dont have nothing
Re: The Joynt by durr_T_hip_E dancin_n_da_moonlite 205.188.116.139 2-Apr-05/10:08 AM
interesting to say the least
Re: The Universe by durr_T_hip_E dancin_n_da_moonlite 205.188.116.139 2-Apr-05/10:06 AM
not to bad actually, but it could use some work for sure, perhaps if you left the one word per line format, and it into like a tanka or haiku or something it would sound better

A race of Liars is unimaginable. How could they communicate? Let’s talk about real minds. You say we should “embrace accepting false propositions.” I hope you don’t mean that. Perhaps you mean “consider propositions that appear false.” A closed mind does not necessarily make assertions based on insufficient evidence. There may be good evidence in a person’s thinking that Negroes are an unreliable source of information, for example. He is closed minded if he rejects information from that source. It is important to recognize closed mindedness because through it good information is rejected.

I'm a neoconservative.

If there were a race of Liars, would it be closed minded to reject the propositions they spouted? A 'closed minded' person might reject Negroes as a source of information, because (for whatever reason) he has concluded that Negroes are an unreliable source of information. What is the difference between that, and, say, someone who rejects carbon dating as a reliable source of information? In both cases, the protagonist's actions are stupid if, and only if, his assertion about the information source being unreliable is based on insufficient evidence. It's obvious we should avoid rejecting true propositions, and embrace rejecting false ones. Closed mindedness is neither here nor there, unless all you mean by 'closed minded' is 'a mind that makes assertions based on insufficient evidence.' It's almost a tautology that you shouldn't do that, unless you live on Planet Gay, where making an assertion based on SUFFICIENT evidence is punishable by bumming.

A closed mind rejects information which it determines false or unimportant based on criteria such as the race, sex, or religion of the person providing the information. It rejects information because of the source or the manner of presentation rather than content. Of course, we all do it. The argument is over whether it’s good or something we should try to avoid.

I thought I was funny, you didn't.

Whatever. I don't care about your squabbles with zodiac anyway. What I'm asking for you to do is to state what you mean by closed minded. Do you simply mean a mind that makes assertions based on insufficient evidence?
Re: a comment on How to treat young ladies by wFraser Allonby Q.C.w -=Dark_Angel=-, P.I. 81.153.196.50 2-Apr-05/8:31 AM
You always do this. Whenever an ironic poeme/comment is posted, you automatically reply explaining the blatant irony to everyone as if they weren't already aware. YES. THIS POEME ISN'T REALLY HOW YOU SHOULD TREAT YOUNG LADIES. THAT'S THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT. WHY ARE YOU TELLING US THAT?
Re: a comment on No Worries by Dovina Dovina 12.72.5.179 2-Apr-05/8:24 AM
I have evaluated what zodiac said about what I have said (opened my mind to considering it) I have decided that his assertion of my being full of crap is false. Therefore, I made the statement you reference. That's not perfect open mindedness, but it's a damn sight more than his.
