Welcome to Reality!
| 
Nov 5 03:42 UTC 1991 |
Welcome to the Religion/Philosophy/Mathematics/
Physics/Meaning of Life and the Universe conference.
It's intended to promote the discussion of the
Union of the above topics, not the Intersection of
them (to get mathematical). Although perhaps we're more
likely to get the Collision of them....
Anyway, hope it's enlightening.

There has been some talk of merging 'Reality' and
'Directions'. If we go ahead with this, we'll nuke
the following (unless asked to save them) items:
1. Welcome to Reality (this item)
5. "Virtual" reality
and possibly 2. Axioms on Reality.

Hmmm. I'll have to reread the directions conference and see what
I'll nuke. Maybe we should set a date to do this?

Is that a "direction" or "for real?"

Wait a minute. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but I thought this was going to be some
sort of philisophical discussion conference- and so far I read blanks, love,
and let's nuke this conference- wanna set a date? Jeez! What happened? Are all
you people thought fully dead?! Sorry, but now I'm upset. Maybe I just don't
know what's going on anyhow...ah well. Lets see if there's anyhthing
interesting going on elsewhere.

Emma, the first item in each conference is generally an administrative
item. Please read on and get involved with any of the discussions.
Don't get discouraged.

And also, embu, recognize that drift is a corallary of a braided
conversation.

sorry, thanks for the explanations.."new user" is my only excuse...about drift,
I agree on principle, but where was the original braid?

This conference isn't very pleasing. It could be referred to as "Major-League
Lame-Fest-o-rama '93......

If you don't like it, then either improve it or don't join it.

I thought that this was a conference for disscussing reglion, mathmatics,
philosiphy, and such. So on according to this, there should be items on these
topics, but I see none. Mabe I haven't dug deep enough into this conference,
but I just don't know.
peace, Graywolf

You're right, it is a conference for discussing these topics. The items
here seem to be ont these topics to me. If there is something you'd
like to discuss, enter a new item.

One, nothing is impossible, if you think about it in the right way, and two,
peace is definitely possible. Why do you say it isn't? Or were you just saying
that on principle?

THEORITICALLY, nothing is impossible. REALISTICALLY, a hell of a lot is
impossible.

Chuckle.
The statement "theoretically, nothing is impossible" is self-contradicting.
Though it certainly has a better ring to it than "this statement may be false".

Whta's wrong with it? In theory anything can be possible, in practice not so.

My philosophical stance is somewhat the opposite. You can prove *lots*
of things impossible from a theoretical standpoint -- example: trisection
of an angle using ruler and compass, in the Euclidean theory of geometry.
But if you really *need* to trisect a particular angle, you can get close
enough "for practical purposes".
