I've had luck with puppy Linux on 32-bit machines. I also got arch32 working on a few. Arch is a steepper learning curve as the arch-install script doesn't work on 32. Related there's quite a group keeping parabola working on all manner of systems including 32, if libre is more your style.

I'm not to familiar with Jewish customs but aren't those candles part of a metaphor for the dawn of creation. The seven days to create the cosmos? How is that not part of the origin story of the everything?

How so, isn't it a definite origin for how all of the everything got here and what it means to be part of the origin. Is there a religion without an origin story implied or actuated?

I always thought it was open and then women. Open for any to join then a women's team if there were enough women playing the sport. My highschool had a girl play on the football team, I think it was because we didn't have a girls football team but w/e.

Yeah it sure does all that.

That does two things immediately - it distances people from sound reason, and it sets them against all of the people who doubt their make-believe absolute truth, and especially those who have chosen to believe some other make-believe absolute truth.

Yeah I think this is the heart of the issue, thank you for articulating it better than I could. I only wish I knew of a way to get people out of this deeply dug groove. but perhaps it might not be as good of a thing as I hope.

Yeah maybe the problem is consensus. Some believe one others a different one.

Yeah it almost seemed like a long fight with what words mean. We had to talk about qualifiers on what someone says when they say they know something, and which qualifiers I assume when someone says it to me or I to others.

 

So I recently had a long car ride with a person who had some strong views on absolute truth. I am of the opinion that absolute truth needs an arbitrator or some mechanism for consensus for a truth to be an absolute for a group of people.

They kept saying that the lack of absolute truth is the problem with modern society. That god is the only arbiter of absolute truth, and I couldnt get an answer on how we mortals are able to divine such things.

It was real frustrating when they wouldn't agree that the as a society, we give the justice system the ability to arbitrate truth.

When I told them that I dont think absolute truths exists he told me that was an absolute truth I believed

I have seen a lot of people who claim that an absolute truth exists and I have seen that thought process color their interactions in society. I think this belief system is a cancer on society and that religions are cultivating it.

I think the idea of an absolute truth being able to be uncovered is quite comforting to these people, and for people who do t consider themselves to be religious these religious ideas persist into their life.

Anyway, just thought I would share.

I always strive to see the nuiance in people, believe as little as possible, change my opinions on matters when appropriate, see absolute truth as a mechanism for arbiters to control.

Thoughts?

Woah what's this based on or is it all original?
