Grandy, you wouldn't know if it's better to live in darkness then to live at all if you were born disabled like that. However, if you did, death might be a welcoming choice. It's really not a question that can be answered.

 That's you contradcting yourself, you can't say death is better than living like that unless you know how it is to be dead.

 And I doubt you do.[/B]

Are we gonna get the same thing again as when you said time doesn't  exist?[/B]

 I proved it doesn't. So THERE.

 XD

 

By the same token, you can't say that living with the ailments is better than death, either.

 I know. That's my point, you can't be sure, and it's not worth risking.

Helen Adams Keller was both Blind and deaf, and she... Wrote... Some stuff!... Of course, she didn't go blind and deaf until after 19 months of age, but that's still pretty damned early.

No, in my personal opinion, I would rather be dead then maimed without sight or hearing for the rest of my life. There is no contradiction involved in my statements of OPINION.

To sum it up: Bullet to head > Knife to eyes and ears

 Emphasis in "the rest of my life" not "since I was born"

 You'd be like that rich guy who lost all his money suddenly, and them decides to suicide, while poorer people who were born poor do all they can to live another day.

Well... then were did I contradict myself? I never said "I wouldn't want to be born that way." I just said I wouldn't want to live like that, meaning I wouldn't want to be turned that way from my current state.

Saying 'Time dosent exist' is like saying "Centimetres dont exist"

Its a unit of measurment.

No, we had some stupid arguement about how if time's flow can be changed via going fast, then the current defination of time is wrong.

Naturally, I won the arguement with: "It can't be proven." Funny though, their main arguement was: "You can't disprove it."

She had gotten surgery and fixed that stuff. But didn't she still have problems with her eyes?

But Beethoven could feel the musical vibrations, and Ray Charles, well he could actually hear XD

That is the main argument of theoretical science - "If it works in concept and you can't disprove it, it should be considered." And they are right - if you can't tell me something is absolutely wrong, why should I not believe it if I think it's right?

Dude....Eintein.....Relativity....
Hawking......

It exists...just everybody thinks its something its not.
But alas....this belongs in another thread

They have figured out how to teleport photons through non linear time.
It exists. But not the way most people think it does.

I agree one gillion percent. Time is measurement. Also, the forth dimension.

"There's no God, but instead, a flying mushroom created all life. This works in concept, and you can't disprove it."

Do you believe that, because according to your quote, you do.

[Razor]

Three things: 1: How does that work in concept?
2: Where are your sources? I'm not going to trust you alone with this Flying Mushroom theory. Show me some links!
3: It's still his CHOICE whether not to believe it. He's just saying, if there's no proof to the contrary, why shouldn't he be able to think that?
