TSonofvulcan 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Ok, here is a mind boggler made my your vulcan truely (me) Everyone says nothing is nothing and something is something. However, when we say something is nothing we are classifing something existing as nothing which should not exist. However, it is existing as something to go into nothing. Therefore, nothing is existing in that is does not exist. So does that change anything something to nothing? Does everything exist? Nothing has to be existing as nothingness since it would have to be existing to be known about to be said it does not exist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrekkieMage 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Saying that something is nothing is saying that the something is very insignifigant and closer to being nothing than being something. I think. It's not taking it literatly that something does not exist, it's just saying that it may as well not exist because it means so little. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted June 21, 2004 It depends on the human as existentialism and philosophy are very illogical. Also colloquialisms have to be taken into account. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TSonofvulcan 0 Posted June 21, 2004 true, you are the 1st person I've met other than myself and on TV who has used the word "colloquialism" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted June 21, 2004 true, you are the 1st person I've met other than myself and on TV who has used the word "colloquialism" I use it all the time. Unfortunately, most people don't understand what I'm talking about. BTW colloquialism means a jargon or slang used in conversation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeanway 0 Posted June 21, 2004 Nothing is alway something. I've said that all along. Colloquiallism is one of the words I always massacre, thanks for bringing that up, again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted June 21, 2004 sorry about that. we may never know if we exist or not. We would have to know what existance is. If we were to know that, we would know life. But what is life in turn to know existance? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, spell check is wonderful I have a faint idea what you're talking about, I don't have quite the extravagant vocabulary you two do and I'm 16, not 14, but being constantly told how expressive my vocabulary is get's rather old....

TSonofvulcan 0 Posted June 22, 2004 I love going up to 11th graders (I'm in a private School) and saying "I beleve my you will find my tenatious vocabulary very flaberghasting and sisaint. It runs in my genology." Of course now, with a dictionary (except for the 1 or 4 actually smart people in the 11th grade) they know what I am saying. I really have no clue as to how some of them are able to come to our school. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TrekkieMage 0 Posted June 22, 2004 Lol... :) Yeah, I understand what you are saying (with the exception of one word, but I got the jist of it) But I have a hard time coming up with them when I'm actually talking Most of the juniors in my school are too smart for that though... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
