I am talking in methaphors and u are interpreting it otherwise.
Knowing the difference bet intellect and intelligence would help.

So can you talk without metaphors?

What kind of intellect do you possess or intelligence do you have that engages in self-refuting statements?

BroInChrist SG

kong zi once said, haven even been fully enlightened about life, how would we know about afterlife. something along that line.

Well, you can let someone who do know something about the afterlife tell us about it, ya?

Fugazzi SG

what do u know about being intellectual or being intelligent?

BroInChrist SG

what do u know about being intellectual or being intelligent?

Enough to spot your fallacies and point them out to you.

i myself do not fully believe in afterlife... where to get one for u... current life already not enlightened... im not so keen on afterlife.

Fugazzi SG

One can play-mind games with onself, but ti always surfaces!

That is being wise, everybody is thinking of the moon and the stars and death and afterlife but they cannot even appreciate what is rite in front of them. So, I can only assume that they are trying to live as opposed to living.

How much do you need to know about something in order to conclude that it exists?

BroInChrist SG

One can play-mind games with onself, but ti always surfaces!

Exactly! Which explains why I can keep pointing out the flaws and fallacies in your worldview.

BroInChrist SG

Again the fallacy of false dichotomy. Why do you suppose people are only doing one or the other but not both?

[imdestinyz] SG

How much do you need to know about something in order to conclude that it exists?

hmmm how about being there... have a look look see see feel feel touch touch experience myself. then i will tell myself that it really exist. If thats has not happen, i wld like to be more focused on my living life rather than afterlife.

Fugazzi SG

Dont know say dont know lah, knowledge pretending wisdom does not make sense

BroInChrist SG

Dont know say dont know lah, knowledge pretending wisdom does not make sense

What sense do your self-refuting statements make?

BroInChrist SG

I think you missed the point. How much must you know about something in order to conclude it is real? Does your not knowing much about it logically lead to the conclusion that it is not real or does not exist?

[imdestinyz] SG

er... i tot we are talking about afterlife so i replied with regards to afterlife ma. How about u? in the context of afterlife?

whether it is real or it exist anot.. to me i have to at least see it or know of it existance. If its afterlife we are talking about, we cant even see it.

Fugazzi SG

Whehter it is self-refuting or a contradiction, i rather stay with that. consistency is a dead thing. When I leave the house for 10 days, the furniture will be the same after 10 days.
Can I say the same or expect the same fo a sibling or a spouse or .. unless I see them as a thing (dead). If I see another as a means to an end – I have already reduced another to a thing to be used and put aside again.
These are not absolutes, these are relative and not literal and methaphorical and meant for those who are keen and earnest to know.

I am alive now (living, as Fuzzy said) so I can't tell you from personal experience about the afterlife. But I believe Jesus was the best authority on this.

Yes, we can't see the afterlife, but then again, what we cannot see does not necessarily negates its existence.

BroInChrist SG

If you cling on to your self-refuting statements, then your worldview is necessarily false. And you are BEING consistently contradicting yourself. And must it be necessarily to see another as a means to an end if one does not agree with your existentialist musings?

welll thats solely to me... what i cant see i cant prove it does not exist, but neither i can prove it exists too. since it cant be proven to be existant, i prefer to take it as non existant. Far too intangible for me... i prefer things more real than such things as afterlife loh.
