An Article On Problems Wrought By The

[TheDave]

im referring too

There is a psychological theory that no knowledge can be created by man, and that every aspect of our thoughts merely adds to that which we have already been told.

welll i fail to see how, but regardless, this is not the topic at hand.

Why not start your own topics?

My point is using that was exactly that conversation must begin somewhere, and in quoting this article, a conversation could indeed have ensued.

I fail to see how you are able to judge what is worthy of discussion and what is not?

And Dave, are you referring to the original post? If so then I do believe you almost started to discuss it there. That is a turn up for the books.

Taking the pub scenario.

If someone walked in and placed a newspaper open on the table, without saying anything, would you discuss it, or ignore it.

If they said, look Viv I was reading this today and I think there may be some truth in it. What would you do then.

If someone wants to discuss something then they should say something about the subject. Not just put the source material on the table.

bollocks. what age are you ?

i ask because, for talking&#39;s sake, if your 25, then would you be happy in the thought that by the time you were 35 then you wouldnt know any better, or have made any advances by yourself ?

there&#39;s &#39;theories&#39; about everything


mindless behaviour ??

get it together man.

I am a 20 year old student, whose girlfriend is studying a psychology honours degree. I would like to quote exactly the theorem, however i do not take a studious interest, I merely learn in passing from her works.

There are theories about most things, i grant you, but i do believe that this is an established theorem.

I would love to know what it was that you felt you were contributing by adding your comment. I assure you, at the time of writing my monitor was 15"[/b][/quote]



ps - sorry, i didnt realise that the 15" was for a monitor, maybe you should change your sig to &#39;why use one word when a double entendre would suffice&#39;, seeing as you seem to have a very selective sense of humour

I fail to see how you are able to judge what is worthy of discussion and what is not?

we&#39;re not worthy, glad to have you around to keep us all in check

JP,

If someone walked into my local and put a newspaper on the table, and I caught a glimpse of the headline, then maybe I would start to discuss it, depending, of course on the subject matter. However, I feel that the link between my use of the analogy and yours is somewhat tenuous, as the way in which a conversation begins on a forum cannot be compared to that of a social scenario, whereas a conversation follows pretty much the same format regardless of the situation in which it exists.

Why not start your own topics?

I would love for you to prove this to not be true. I dont believe that you will be able to.

And yes, i do indeed have a selective sense of humour. I do like Friends, however i do not like Bo Selecta. I would imagine that this is true of most individuals, however, again this is not the topic at hand.

I never claimed I was the one to judge whether a topic should be allowed to be posted.

But, please answer me one thing
Why not start your own topics?

Correct me if I am wrong :

1. You chose the analogy.

2. I start "my own topics" on a regular basis.

I like Friends and Bo selecta and meat.
