Ask any questions

Thank you my friend. I shall give it my best try to answer all these questions. However, I can read it as 'Standard' American English, but I cannot give you an American, but a British English response (or other forms of communication for response as required, as you have not specified which form of communication I should give for answers). I shall assume you have not asked any rhetorical questions, which by definition do not require any response (that being the correct response)- Also, read footnotes if I make any Source: . https://www.google.co.uk... 1. WHAT IS THE CORRECT RESPONSE TO THIS QUESTION? I'm crap with premises ,but I'll give it a go: P1 A response is a 'reaction to something' P2 Thus a correct response would be 'a reaction free from error or is accordance with fact or truth' P3 A fact is 'a thing that is known or proved to be true' P4 A question is a sentence worded or expressed to ilicit information, and 'this' is to indicate a specific thing mentioned in the context P5 Information is 'facts provided or learned about something or someone. ' P5 Many problems have more than one correct answers, e. g. the square root of x² is both +x and -x E1 Correct- To react, I provide an answer E2 Response- It is in accordance to fact that a non-rhetorical question deserves to be answered, at least to my knowledge BEYOND REASONABLE DOUBT E3.1 Question- the information you require of me for the specific inquiry made above is that you require me to make a correct response E3.2 From what I can observe circular reasoning is almost inevitable (I must leave a small uncertainty that someone better than I can answer it for this question, if such person exists) E4 Hence I can assume that this is a generic question, thus I am only required to give a correct response for a generic question E5 Returing to E1 and E2 I must react/answer in accordance to fact and reality E6 I cannot analyse this in a linguistic way (at least not completely) E means evaluation Hence I must respond mentally- I am baffled and confused by this question, and this is the way I reacted in what I consider to be a fact- that humans facing paradoxical questions are. But as G. K. Chesterton said: “Paradox - Truth standing on her head to get attention. ' Source: . http://www.goodreads.com... I will not commit fallacy of equivocation here, but you may disagree with my hypothesis- the figurative meaning of this quote is that we must study paradoxes that are out there in greater detail Hence, my conclusion is that my answer to this question is that the correct response would be to feel confused, but then let my curiosity lead me to investigate this paradox in greater detail. See? I have RESPONDED AS REQUIRED, and am ABLE TO provide the RESPONSE. To give another paradox- another correct response would be to not respond at all! (Thee is no such thing as one single correct answer for all problems beyond reasonable doubt. Also, this is not the same as, my esteemed opponent argued, 'no correct answer') 2. HEY ATHEISTS: IF GOD DOESN'T EXIST, WHAT BY EVEN HOW SOME WHEN BEFORE WAS LIKE? CHECKMATE. To be very pedantic, this in fact is an invalid question as I am not an atheist but a pantheist. However, assuming I am an atheist, I'll tackle this piecemeal: Note: in the English language, there are times where word orders are flexible (like in this case). What before was like? I'll assume that 'when before' denotes the time (i. e. this is past tense). By some means it is observed only by, as mentioned, some individuals. So what by even how some when before was like means 'what was it like for someone before (a particular event)', whereby as there are no material objects (as God is not as such a tangible object according to the atheists) even in this case is a sign of surprise. Hence I can deduce that the question really is asking you 'what was it like for some atheists before they become atheists/ their understanding of the Big Bang, if God doesn't exist' (as becoming atheists and Big Bang theory are the most relevant context here). Answering one of the question for example- before becoming atheists, Richard Dawkins for example went to an Anglican school. He is slightly nostalgic of his early years (only slightly by the way I'm not trying to imply anything): 'Prof Dawkins admitted he would consider going into a church, and would miss ‘aesthetic elements’ such as church bells if they were gone. And he said he was “grateful” to Anglicanism which he claims has a “benign tolerance” - enabling people to enjoy its traditions without necessarily believing in them. ' Source: . http://www.telegraph.co.uk... This is what was like for some atheists like Prof Dawkins. About the Big Bang- some atheists may believe that before the Big Bang in the time direction of spacetime, it was like I said,where everything appears to be going 'backwards' from our observation (if we can that is) (Kaku, Physics of the Impossible). However, this model depends on the 'shape' of the universe (for further details on the shape/ curvature of the universe, I'd like to direct you to Prof. Stephen Hawking's Brief History of Time) 3. WHAT DOES RED TASTE LIKE TO ME? Red is the protagonist in Pokemon Red, he is a ten year old child. I assume if you lick Red assuming this person exists, you would find that he tastes like a ten year old child, or a piece of paper or a DVD cover depending on the medium where his image is carried. I know it sounds disgusting, but it is still a satisfactory response (I think). Test this yourself, lick it and find out- it's what science is all about, experimentation to test a hypothesis. I have read AND intepreted your question as Standard American English, but you did not mention the context of the question hence I took the liberty of intepret RED as 'Red' as opposed to 'red'. 4. WHAT? I just said: 'Red is the protagonist in Pokemon Red, he is a ten year old child. I assume if you lick Red assuming this person exists, you would find that he tastes like a ten year old child, or a piece of paper or a DVD cover depending on the medium where his image is carried. I know it sounds disgusting, but it is still a satisfactory response (I think)' One use of 'what' in the English language is to ask someone to reiterate something, and I am reiterating my point. Source: . http://www.macmillandictionary.com... I know this is a British English website, but I am not stupid enough to know that 'what' means the same in the same context in American English. 5. WHAT IS MY NAME? ANSWER IN ZERO (0) CHARACTERS OR LESS FuzzyCatPotato may not be a real name, but it is a pseudonym, (a fictious name) but nevertheless a name. Note: do not treat any letters, numbers, words, Chinese characters or any other characters (in the context of words) of any given font by Debate. org, whether in italic, normal font, bold or underlined in this debate as the response to this question (Q5), but do read notes. I assume in this case you mean character as in letters, numbers, Chinese writing ,etc. I know you will catch me out, so I found another way: Fuzzy image source: . http://3.bp.blogspot.com...

My worst answer- but I can give it a go- K (Key) which is 4 (CMYK) Footnote: I am scientifically minded. At least according to some science teachers, the 'correct' answer would be the CURRENT best possible explanation for a particular phenomena. I have tried to answer these questions using my understanding of the world.
