Socrates' Study

death-of-socrates.jpg

this is probably the only porn-related place on the internet where you could have semi-serious philosophical discussion, so i thought it would be fun. ive been thinking about my own consciousness and all that jibber-jabber-jazz lately anyway. anything you think could be related to such a topic or just a thought that you would like to tell the class, put it down below. im open to most discussions

 

(this might flop hard but oh well)

we all are stardust filled meat bags given enough rationality to realize our own mortality. that's why i believe people should live life to the fullest and not bitch out about something because they may regret it later. TLDR yolo

Here's something that I've always thought of since I was a youngin, "why is my consciousness me?" Or "why am I me, right here right now?" It's like, you could be conscious as anyone at anytime, right, so why me? And why now? Why isn't my consciousness in some roman gladiator thousands of years ago? I've always found this fascinating and it motivates me to do something with the gift of consciousness I've been given.

Yeah! I have always thought this to be something, anything, but I've just never been able to put it into words. I've always thought of myself as, well, myself. I've never really stopped to think about what the world looks like to other people. How it changes in another's eyes. What is going on behind their mask.

I believe that Kurt Cobain did not off himself. I believe that the CIA and Mossad planted a bomb in his neck and when Kurt turned down a Burger King ad they blew his mind

Well lets talk about they tessract and the other dimensions because we are in the third dimension but  some say the  fourth is time which hard to see as real because think about black holes and how they then bend time and space with ease and what could be another  dimension be and what reqirements would it have

I don't think there is another dimension. In fact, I believe we exist in the only possible dimension, since it's impossible to create a perfect two-dimensional or one-dimensional shape. Dimensions are concepts we've created to answer the question of 'where,' just as time is something we've created to answer the question of 'when.' Therefore, it's useless to apply them objectively to the universe.

well, i think that the 4th dimension is time itself as we see it, but time could perceive it's own dimension like we perceive ours, but were incapable of seeing it that way because were in the 3rd dimension

 

the requirements would be that you have to be the physical inbidiemnt of time itself, completely transcending the 3rd into something we cant comprehend or even begin to perceive

 

and black holes, I think are a spot in time where there is no dimension, it's the lack thereof, which in turn, turns anything that is in a dimension and strips it of such, making it nothing

fiyo your definition of a black hole is completely wrong. please go read the wikipedia article. black holes are a point in space with infinite density. and because time is affected by gravity, the space around the black hole (dependent on its mass) exerts such a massive gravitational pull that causes any object that enters said space around a black hole to have all of the objects timelines end at the singularity. this is called the event horizon. black holes have jack shit to do with the 4th dimension as a concept. the 4th dimension is the way in which 3d spaces are connected when they are not connected in 3d space.

im aware of the definition i wasnt trying to give the actual definition i was giving an explanation to his question in a philosophical sense, not a literal scientific one, in which yes I do agree with what you said

The pilot-wave theory in QM is pretty creepy if you think about it for too long. If you're willing to believe that if we could perfectly map out every electron's position and vector in spacetime and calculate from there every interaction and subsequent action, wouldn't that imply at some point there is determinism in our universe?

Does free will exist, or are our actions already in motion because of an innumerable amount of electrons that have already determined what we're going to think and do? Is the entire existence of sentiment on some upstoppable ride that we're too ignorant to recognize?

And then I remember this is the exact same bullshit that dumbass nihilist like use to be unending dickheads to other people and pretend that their actions don't have "real" consequences and go peacefully back to bed.

nah there are other things that affect electrons that are truly random. a example would be radioactive decay, and a better one would be cosmic ray muons. these are formed when cosmic radiation smacks into the atmosphere, turning it into a large variety of subatomic particles. one of these is a pion which, completely randomly, will decay into smaller subatomic particles. this shit is random. also i remeber the enire free will thingy being moot because even if we dont have free will, whatever we do have is indistuingishable from free will.

it could be predetermined, but it would also be predetermined that we could actually think about it. just because consciousnesses could be predetermined doesnt mean free will couldnt exist, it would just be predetermined that electrons and neutrons would allow our minds to think about what we wish to do. while i do think that those things allow us to think, that's the extent of it, and they dont determine WHAT we think. that may be naive but i like to think that our thoughts are not decided, but our ability to have such thoughts. i dont think our decisions are a set of atoms arranging and rearranging, though it most likely is

I dont get this mindset of "everythings fucked and nothing matters"

because if the world truly is as deterministic as they say it is, why not take stupid risks and enjoy the "ride" so to call it

by their own rules, my time will come when the universe calls for it so might as well make the most of it

i personally dont think nothing has meaning, but I do think not EVERYTHING has meaning. some things have meaning. either natural or our own given meaning.

 

a natural example: why do plants release oxygen? to allow for us and all animals to breathe

a man made example: why does money have value? because we decided that paper could be used has an exchange of value to allow us to purchase and sell whatever we wish, and so we all have equal opportunity to have or give away the things we wish

something that doesnt have meaning: existence? because, it just is. along the swirl of space time continuum, things aligned so everything could exist, and not exist, because it did

 

i suppose that is called existentialism, but I'm not sure.

nah everything has meaning because everything affects everything else. and if something has meaning, and something else slightly modifies that meaning, the thing that modified it has meaning. also where did you get the "and so we all have equal opportunity to have or give away the things we wish" bit? equality never was and has never been in the plans for the idea of money.

what about randomness? was there a meaning behind a random thing happening, or did it just happen. many things affect other things, us or natural things, but that does not give them inherent meaning just because they were changed, because not everything that is changed has a meaning behind that change

 

also for the money thing, I kinda typed that at like 3 am and I dont give a shit about money so my bad I fucked up on that one

there is meaning behind the random occurrence because it affected something that does matter. it is meaning by association not meaning on its own. and fair enough
