More specifically, agnosticism has to do with the unknowability of God, which is exactly what I was discussing. The argument is valid. To say...
Speculating about something doesn't mean that it exists; it only presupposes it in thought, like a hypothesis. Look at it this way. It is...
Unicorns are unknowable because they don't exist. How could you know about something that doesn't exist? It has nothing to do with being able to...
Colours: Of course there's a difference between unicorns and God. In fact, there are many differences. Unicorns are usually thought of...
I'm not sure exactly what you're talking about, but I explicitly said that God's existence is logically possible. That's not the problem. The...
I do not believe in unicorns. I have seen no conclusive evidence that suggests that unicorns do not exist, but I do not believe in them anyway....

Taxrefund: I'm sure Marx thought things out very well. Philosophers tend to do that. Ewan: Okay, but where did he say this? As in where in a...
Where did he say this? As I understand Marx, he believed that there would be revolution in the near future. That really just begs the question. On...
I'm starting this thread with the in all likelyhood misplaced hope that it won't degenerate into the same drivle (which both sides are guilty of)...
Well, Occam's Razor is a good guiding principle. I'd say that's an okay definition for empiricism, phenomenalism, or naturalism, but that it's...
Well, in answer to the first question, some but certainly not all of the philosophers I am interested in include Hume, Leibniz, Kant, Frege,...
The source is the CIA world factbook, which, I think, is cross-referenced with the KGB world factbook, but don't take my word on that. I'm no...
After a little bit of research, excluding biased websites such as anything including the word "Marxist" "Leninist" or "Communist" in the title and...
