You really, truly seem to love being completely wrong about things. Saying a theory is wrong is not the same as proposing a new theory of the Universe, for the simple reason that it's generally not falsifiable. Sic can, and has, listed things that have no opposites, but as you will to half-assed evasions on how we simply don't know if those things have an opposite yet, nothing can be conclusively proven. As the being advocating a semi-falsifiable position, the burden of proof is on you to actually honest to God demonstrate how and why things are based upon opposition, rather than casually dismissing any possibility of illogic in your statement with, "One thing that you folks seem to misunderstand quite frequently is that everything that is a whole is only that way because of its opposing parts all the way down to molecules and atoms". You're using deductive logic to make an assumption that everything is based around opposites, and using that assumption to try and prove itself.


When people talk of the freedom of writing, speaking or thinking I cannot choose but laugh. No such thing ever existed. No such thing now exists; but I hope it will exist. But it must be hundreds of years after you and I shall write and speak no more.
