'1. No. Antitheist. 2. Florida     You understand these are conflicting statements, right? He put proof of his existence in the bible. By the writing of it, of course, but also with all of the...|||Morality doesn't exist. There is no universal, nor regional, right or wrong. All actions are neutral.  Why do we think morality exists?  Because we're social creatures that employ empathy and...|||Yes, I pace obsessively when I want to think. So much so, that I have a hard time sitting down and thinking.  I find it to be a terrible habit; it's like my brain is tricking me into thinking I'm...|||Chris. Christopher in full.  I think it's taken from someone famous... Hmmm...  Oh, I know. I think his name was Satan. I think he created the printing press.   Yeah, that's right; his name is...|||I'm not too perverse. I'm not talking possibilities. Illogically, never test problems.  Idiot: nothing takes pennies. In no time plastered. Illuminate nighttime predators.|||Quite, quite humorous. I hear far too many stories of stalkerish men pursuing women.  Yes, as men, we have a tendency to believe that if a woman came up to us and asked for sex, we'd have no choice...|||How strangely erotic. Of course, using breasts as pillows is heavenly, as is using a nice plump butt, so any action performed in association with that anatomy is fantastically seductive and alluring....|||Yes, please, get on that; I would like to sleep with him.|||I was a virgin until not too long ago. Sex was on my mind, but it was a minor desire that I very rarely ever contemplated or acted on intently. The first time I had sex, it made me want it more, and...|||Existence will always be useless, whether it can be appreciated on a conscious level or not.  If you want to be technical, though, then yes, consciousness creates usefulness, as usefulness is...|||Of course.|||That doesn't mean you can't keep trying to find the answer to something; sometimes even when you know you won't find an answer, you can come back and fool around with the reasoning, see if something...|||Is it truly different, though? Couldn't intuition be a simpler, more nuanced form of reasoning? Or couldn't reasoning be a more elaborate, drawn-out form of intuition?  Could they be one and the...|||You tend to give intuition a magical, prophetic role in the universe and human nature. That is the entire point of this thread, it seems. Why is that?    I understand exactly what you're getting...|||I have felt the desire sometimes to be normal - more outwardly expressive, interesting, and loving - but it's always fleeting, and I fall back in love with myself pretty quickly.  I love being...|||If we're talking objectively - which we are, since we're INTPs - then no, people have no value whatsoever. To be objective means to escape the subjective realm of personal experience, as well as the...|||The puzzle is fun, but obviously, Einstein didn't create this, nor claim 98% of people couldn't solve it.  All you have to do is ask the question: how would Einstein know that 98% of people...|||I'm on the same page as Richard. I've consumed alcohol, but the taste is terrible, and I really don't care too much for being tipsy or drunk. Eh, it's okay at best, but it's just not worth it...|||Exactly what I was thinking. Good you called it out.|||This thread is called INTP Great Strength and Weakness. If you're answering and you're not an INTP, then you're distorting the answers the OP is looking for. I can't be blamed if I assume you'd be...|||Exactly what I thought. Also consider that the one con was already on the pro side and it all seems like self-denial of one's own weaknesses. INTPs have some severe weaknesses when it comes to social...|||I know for sure those teachers liked me. One of them doted on me - kind of like I was her son - and showed great enthusiasm for everything I did.  In the situation with the teacher who doted on me,...|||I've had a few powerful compliments. For example, in my sophomore year of high school, I was called the resident genius of my English class, and the solemn intellectual of my History class. These...|||I'm not sure. I might...|||I can't imagine an INTP would use misspellings as a passive-aggressive maneuver to end a relationship, because I believe an INTP would think that only INTPs really care about those types of things. I...|||I'm not taking sides here, but I have to applaud crazyeddie for being so calm, even after unfair accusations and cruel taunts and jests. It's a mellowness that is hard to find, but pleasing to see.|||I enjoy nonfiction almost exclusively. I recently started reading classical literature, but lately I'm finding that all I want to do is go back to reading nonfiction, since at least I'm enjoying...|||I would conclude that it isn't God they worship, but the idea of God that's being worshiped (that pile of dead trees). Infallible texts allow their opinions to be infallible, a human desire that is...|||I have no idea why you're always so hard on yourself, Richard: I find you are one of the few on this site with consistently well-thought-out responses. You're a pleasure to read, and if your...|||My most powerful, insightful, and productive thoughts come almost instantaneously for me; by that I mean, I haven't thought them out, but as I'm explaining them, they come out as if I had thought...|||crazyeddie I know, I know; I just love arguing. Even if I know that my opponents are likely to skip over logic in their arguments out of blind faith and belief, it's all fun and practice for me. :P ...|||Actually, we see the evidence of these scientific theories around us all the time. ESPECIALLY in the case of evolution. There is so much evidence for evolution, it's absurdly sickening that people...|||It's funny that you brought this up, because I was just thinking this exact same thing yesterday, except with INTPs in mind. It's weird when you're reading through the forum and you read a comment...|||These are wise words. I really don't understand how people can play those types of games with each other, so I don't know how exactly I could help you in playing those games exactly, but I do believe...|||Sure, time spent with the family is important, especially for the growth of the kids.  How old are you? I'm just asking because it's possible that what we know as the priorities of the 1950s are...|||Oh, phew! Thank you, I feel so much better now. :happy:|||All these stalking stories are kind of scary. But all I can think about is, Why aren't I interesting enough to be stalked? :(  Oh God, what was that?! Crazies get out of my head!|||Geez. Thank God I'm a man and women aren't that attracted to/obsessed with me.   Your life scares me. :/|||No one has jumped in yet to debate you in a while, so that's not a real concern. And I said take your time for clarity, but you brushed me off. Why do you want more time then? I never said there was...|||Then why is it even translated if translations are unholy?    And then why would you care who translated it if the translation can never be holy? Why would any of this matter? You're making it...|||The opposite can happen as well. When someone exclaims something like, You understand things so quickly, or, You're so clever, or what have you, those exclamations can catch me off guard. In the...|||So, you're telling me some translations are just plain wrong? How do you know which ones are right? Because they're in Arabic? Can't people who wrote in Arabic be wrong?  Anyway, even if the...|||Hey, I'm not changing anything you've said. I'm quoting your words directly.    You're telling me that medical experts should be allowed to direct you in religious decisions. Doesn't your...|||My brother and me in that description.    Yes, I'm insatiable in that regard.    I'm cute as a button and my brain always itches. Nuff said.|||Hmm, I am a master of all of these things. Who knew I could switch between the rational types so easily.|||Poor, poor, crazy man: your definitions are all messed up! :rolleyes:|||Have you seen my boyish features? I'm the epitome of cute.  Now, since there is no solid evidence supporting one side over another in this thread, it can only be said that we should fall back on...|||True. When you go crazy, you typically come out ENTP. :tongue:|||Well, poppets, look what I've wandered into: people with opinions. Let the reign of terror begin.  INTJs are my brethren. I sometimes feel like I belong there more than in the INTP forums because...|||Again, water intoxication can put you in a coma or kill you. I'm just saying that a coma probably fits the vague mind-fogger rule.    That is a lot of stipulations. You should probably add some...'
