I have a small theory or something i dont know how to name it ... i think that everything is possible ... i mean absolute everything for example 2+2 = 5 or there could be life after death , but also could not be and so on ... there are infinite possibility in everything even if some things have a very very very small chanse to happen .....well sorry for my english .. and what do you thing about this ?

Is there a possibility of something being impossible?

well... yes , but it`s also possibile not to be .... i trying to live my life after this little theory ... i mean i learned that i must be ready for everything an think of every possibily even if it`s crazy or if i dont like it maybe the peoples will say that i think to much but this is how i like it

Ask a Moderator, Super-Moderator, or Admin next time We work cheap!!

Your question is inherently rhetorical in that it answers itself. It is a paradox. As such it is kind of silly and will net silence or silly rhetorical questions like that from DM

You should work it out more. Or try to be a bit more expansive.

i think we can convince ourselves of anything. when you get to that point where you believe something utterly and completely, the it will eventually become real or possible (maybe just inside your mind but still possible).

i am not a christian and i think the reason jesus was seen as "holy" (no offense to christians or anybody - promise) was because he could "will" himself to do certain things because he believed in them completely, which others saw only as miracles and impossible without divine assistance. of course if you show a celphone to a caveman he's going to fall on his knees and worship you because he doesn't understand it and that is (what i think) the case with jesus - if he ever existed.

it's all just a case of how strong your mind is and what you can do with it. so yes, i believe anything is possible

Agreed . . . and in speaking of terms of philosophy, "your theory" (which already exists, and in some ways more logically) is as flawed as any theory can be flawed. Eveything CAN NOT exist. For example, your mere idea of 2 + 2 = 5. That does exist, just in a different mathematical system. Math as we understand it is a Base-10 mathematical system. 2 + 2 = 4 is an absolute in a Base-10 mathematical system. 2 + 2 = 5 is an absolute in a Base-???? mathematical system. Ergo, 2 + 2 = 4 CAN ONLY exist in a Base-10 mathematical system.

Also, what about empiricism? Empirical observations are perhaps the most prime example of a human flaw, and it's philosophical attributes. Why, that's not an orange circle hovering in the sky that seems to circle us . . . it's a big ball of burning gas that we orbit around! Now, empiricism and perception can be pretty decieving, does that mean that those things exist? Do mirages exist? Hallucinations? As an absurdist, I will say yes, but there's a key fundamental difference between physical existence (such as, it's just a door frame) and metaphysical existence (it looks like the house's skeleton [the door frame] because I'm on LSD). Both exist, but not in the same manner.

Yet again, you have my ever favorite philosophical musing, which is tied into a Pre-Socratic philosophy: the correlation of opposites. What is the opposite of existence? Non-existence? Yet, if the opposite of existence, which is non-existence, should exist . . .? SHOULD EXIST? Non-existence . . . exists? Or rather, what is the opposite of a triangle? A non-triangle? But having a non-triangle as the opposite of a triangle isn't really justified. For the opposite of night is day. And if non-night is also the opposite of night . . . then, what is the opposite of a triangle? It's existence doesn't exist. Ergo, the opposite of a triangle isn't possible . . . at least, not in that philosophical mode of thought.

Anywho, like Dyshade said, your question is lacking . . . but at least you asked it!

yeah, ask a moderator, they know all.

hey, dy, you ever changed an alternater on a 97 ford exploarer? ive got plenty of beer in the fridge.

No. But I have changed out a few in different cars. It cannot be much harder. What kind of beer??

I don't know shit.

we can hit a restaurant and get whatever you like, if i dont have keys to it we'll just knock it down, how early can you wake up?

i think it depends how your going to look at a situation personally.

Its kinda like "Expecting the unexpected makes the unexpected expected" right? if your going to look at it positively then your going to achieve that result...... ok did i stay on topic im kinda lost in my own head with this topic lol.....

Uh huh . . .

Dammit, Sic, you always make me have to go read up on my articles...

Huh?

I think its called the Chaos Factor. Its not that bad, it just shows you that if you believe in fate, you have an out if you so opt.

Explain . . .

Put down the pot pipe. Now back away slowly and regain your reason through whatever means happens to be convenient.

That's not a theory, that's just saying that anything is possible, without any real reason why. Go ahead and try it over and over again until you go mad, but 2+2 is never going to add up to anything but 4, unless you happen to make a mistake.

Might I suggest you test your "theory" by attempting to walk through a wall? It might hurt the first hundred times, but keep trying. You never know, that 101st time might be the one that gets you through it...

ok ... it`s not a theory i dont care what it i just didnt know how to call it, i dont belive in fate ... but i belive that are higher forces than us i dont know how much they involve in our live .. or if they even know about our existence but i belive or at least i know that i want to belive . Some peoples say that everything happen for a reason .. well i dont think so and i DONT BELIVE IN FATE ( according to my "theory" it would be posibile for fate to exist but i dont want to think so ) and in my opinion the things are not a perfect order ... everything is CHAOS ! and maybe you cant walk through a wall because you dont want hard enough ... or beacuse is not posibile ( according to my "theory" it may be or not posibile )

PS : sorry for my english

Look. Everything is chaos. That's the whole point of the Chaos Theory. In all design, there is a set of instances that can change the outcome of the situation. Call it fate, call it a higher power, call it whatever. But there are factors that play in our lives that we simply have no control over.

I once had a rant that was somewhat related to this. In it I ramble about how I believe you can manifest certain things through an exertion of will, but cannot perform the inverse because it is already proven to exist. It would prove parodixical to try and "unmanifest" anything.
