What do you think of humans? - Page 5

Kloriel · 11.22.2008, 12:58 AM

i don't think about humans as much as i think about the majestic ibex

pbradley · 11.22.2008, 01:02 AM

Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it?

How about ten?

Kloriel · 11.22.2008, 01:03 AM

are you talking to the ibex?

Sonic Youth 37 · 11.22.2008, 01:03 AM

How about threefiddy?

and what's the guinea pig's fascination with the ibex?

Sounds like a very inane thing to do.

Loads of time on your hands, eh?

Kloriel · 11.23.2008, 12:12 AM

not really, it is kind of a stress relief and is supposed to be funny.

11.23.2008, 12:13 AM

It's supposed to be funny?

Kloriel · 11.23.2008, 12:15 AM

I meant that I found it funny. I don't think a little ibex bender once a year could really hurt anyone. I also hoped others might find it funny.

I think this thread is the perfect example of my thoughts on humans.

Look at all you bicker and squabble on the internet...

oh wait I'm chiming in...

hmm.

Kallisti23chaos · 11.23.2008, 01:41 AM

human beings in nature are alive to destroy themselves.

Kloriel · 11.23.2008, 01:42 AM

i think that is half right

pbradley · 11.23.2008, 01:46 AM

Misanthropy is short sighted and either egotistical or self-hating. Either way I don't like people judging en masse with limited evidence.

Kloriel · 11.23.2008, 03:13 AM

i wanna respond to this, but now's not good. i have a sense you have both the intuitive gut sense that many academics lack combined with somehow walking the walk through the tower. but i think it is both (kali's downer plus the other half of that, which would simply be the opposite)

pbradley · 11.23.2008, 04:14 AM

Everyone wants what is good. It is just what constitutes goodness that bites us in the ass.

*picture of Plato here*

ploesj · 11.23.2008, 05:56 AM

we're not as smart as we think we are.

pbradley · 11.23.2008, 06:02 AM

Another good Platonic point.

Morning.

I was going to say that in a sense we are supposed to destroy ourselves while at the same time perpetuating ourselves / moving forward. I know how irritated true scholars can get when discussing things with those that aren't hip to the lingo, but there it is.

pbradley · 11.23.2008, 11:06 AM

Perpe... perptuating? I'm sure you made that one up.
