Please tell me you see the ridiculousness in your continued attempts to cover your tracks on these issues. If not, you are hopeless!

You can't admit you were wrong in your flaming. It's too bad you can't see that. No, you haven't given a good argument in this entire thread, so go back to arguing with the 13 year olds. You are a bitter boy, lonely and slow. And considering that you have not given one solid argument in this thread I have no reason to continue this, it's the entire forum against you (like real life). |

![]() And, you said you only read to page 3, so how do you know what's been posted thereafter? ![]() Yes, in real life, I've been a complete failure, and everyone in my class hates me at Junior High. Everyone is against me. I've never been able to accomplish anything. I hate myself. I can only find solice on these forums, hiding behind the facade about who I really am (like Delta). I'm a dishwasher for a catering company, not bad for a 13 year old. Better than a paper route. I think I need to goto Bible Study now to gain some confidence and support. Praise God, oh wait ... I'm agnostic, and I don't even know what that means? |

Thanks for understanding your wrong doings and admitting them and coming clean. |
Sounds like you come from the same school of debate as Delta - twistthewords.edu.|

You put a question mark after "by association", is there something you don't understand, lad? Again, thanks for the appology. |

| It isn't easy to say what exactly philosophy is, how to study it, or how to 'do' it. So why has it long been one of the central subjects in Western academics? The reason why it is so difficult to categorize philosophy is because philosophizing makes up so much of what we do during life. Most of the time, it seems that philosophy is pursued without passion and without love, as if it were a technical subject like engineering or simple mathematics. This is not entirely acceptable. |

No brief definition expresses the richness and variety of philosophy |

Delta does it like it's going out of style. Once again, it's not I who has taken one of your sentences or Delta's sentences and re-phrased them, telling you what you *really* meant by it. However, I *can* admit, that I (as is human nature) have found the materials appropriate to support my claims, AS HAVE YOU AND DELTA TO EXTREMES!
