Sunday School 2 hours, 20 minutes agoFellow Unbelievers:
“Well, Yakob, we’ll have to call our messages across the back forty or use passenger pidgeons and foot mesengers and hope predators don’t get them like in the days of The Bible! All thanks to Bobby Brainworm, now, even “The English” are just like us Amish!”

Sunday School 2 hours, 52 minutes agoJake:
Some time ago, one of the big-wigs of Alternatifs fur Deutcheland actually converted to Islam and said he wanted to “build bridges” between German Muslims and German Right-Wingers. Ecumunism of this sort usually means going after a third, which in Germany means: Get the Jews and LGBTQ.

100 percent analogy is not analogy. Just is not.
This is precisely what I’ve been saying. To use a simile of my own, looking for a 100 percent analogy is like sending some on a prank errand to buy a Non-Genetically Modified Seedless Watermelon. Doesn’t exist. (Nor for that matter does any Non-Genetically Modified food since the time…[Read more]

Artificial Intelligence 7 hours, 35 minutes agoWoops,
I think i see now what i missed then. Reg is using 100%/analogy as a tautology thus enabling an identity. Ok.

Artificial Intelligence 7 hours, 51 minutes ago100 percent analogy is not analogy. Just is not. Identical twins are comparable and analogizable. (new word is like a neologism.) Yet they’re not identical and thus proper subjects. Once identity is evident it is properly tautology time. Never the twain shall meet..
“As for similes, what are they like?” If we can only answer a simile with a…[Read more]

100 percent analogy is a contradiction in terms. If there is no line of demarcation, no variation and no way to distinguish things being compared then it is not an analogy.
Recall, I said: “Obviously, no analogy is 100 percent perfect, otherwise, it would be a tautology.”. So we are saying the same thing, only differently.
By the way, my…

I would like to quibble…I might be wrong so won’t swear on the holey bibble….but would a 100% analogy not be an ‘identity’? A tautology is a statement true by its logical form. An analogy that matched in every respect would simply describe the same thing twice?
You are right on all counts, Reg. A 100 percent perfect analogy is an “identity…[Read more]

Artificial Intelligence 21 hours, 58 minutes ago100 percent analogy is a contradiction in terms. If there is no line of demarcation, no variation and no way to distinguish things being compared then it is not an analogy.
Seems to me speaker’s typically convey something negative when they point out a tautology. It is a needless repetition. Pointing out a tautology is a way to rebuke a speaker…[Read more]

Sunday School 1 day, 1 hour agoI never really understood the way a Jewish population stays in Germany. I remember reading racist anti Jewish laws that required Jewish immigrants to live together in a Jewish ghetto. A German woman told me no way. I gave her the site and she consulted other Germans and could not invalidate the law.
This is the wake up call perhaps to GTFO.…[Read more]
