A five dollar knife wielded by a millon dollar trained spec ops person, you don't think that you can just walk up and do it, do you?

i was simply making a comparison on how easy it is to disable a multi-million dollar vehicle, besides you never specified that you were shooting at military vehicles.

Movies are called fantasy for a reason.

i do my best to live with the belief that all things are possible.

So does your belief include acceptance of the possibility that you are systemically wrong in many of your opinions?

Point taken for the first part as for the second...I think you mean all things are probable ?

[uki]

I think you mean all things are probable ?

well i suppose you could say probable, but i mean all things are possible in the sense that in a freewill universe such as this one, nothing is impossible.

So does your belief include acceptance of the possibility that you are systemically wrong in many of your opinions?

that depends on wether or not one believes in opinions and adhere's to dualistic thought concepts such as right and wrong.

Well, possible within the realm of physics, sure.

[SimonM]

that depends on wether or not one believes in opinions and adhere's to dualistic thought concepts such as right and wrong.

I will take that as a no.

So, in other words: According to you anything is possible except the possibility that you are wrong.

[David Jamieson]

all things are not possible.

not even in the realm of physics...which has a huge chunk taht is strictly theoretical.

What is a free will universe?

Is that like where you're a hobo?

You can make decisions every day I guess, but do you really have choices?

[uki]

Well, possible within the realm of physics, sure.

and the realm of physics is directly related to our realm of experience.

I will take that as a no.

what is yes and no?

So, in other words: According to you anything is possible except the possibility that you are wrong.

what is possible and impossible? transcend the dualism...

all things are not possible.

why would you limit your beliefs?

not even in the realm of physics...which has a huge chunk taht is strictly theoretical.

how do you come by this assumption? the concept of differential equations comes to mind here...

What is a free will universe?

a freewill universe is one where there is no limitation to the manifestation of energy and expressions of it.

Is that like where you're a hobo?

it is wise to live simply day by day...

You can make decisions every day I guess, but do you really have choices?

it's all part of that dualistic nature of opposites... once you transcend dualism, you realize that everything is progressing according simply to the way of nature... all things have there purpose and everything happens for a reason.

lol.

just keep eating those shrooms bud...they seem to be working for you.

why do you think i haven't stopped yet? by the way it's big laughing season here in the northeast, gymnopilus spectabilis, found growing on tree stumps, buried roots, and fallen timber, usually paper birch, not to be confused with the jack'o'latern(omphalotus olearnius) which also is bright orange and glows in the dark... that one makes you quite sick for a few days, or so i have heard. big laughing gyms were named so in japan because there ingestion causes foolish behaviour and unmotivated laughter.
