René Descartes kicks Aristoteles ass, that's my philosophy.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;49976334]evolution isn't a "sleeping ancestor of my genetic design", it's a fucking theory that explains the variation in lifeforms we see today by means of natural selection your esoteric ramblings don't make sense half of the time and they misuse well-established concepts in the natural sciences[/QUOTE] Manic-depressive illness makes me switch between preaching and having a meaningful conversation. You dislike the effects of psychotic behavior because you don't recognize them as being a product of psychosis. Your opinion of me is formed out of an illusion that I actually possess these traits of character. I'm stable now, rendering your expression of dislike as meaningless. Someone not making sense, telling them to make sense, would not make them make sense anyway. Also, expressively rejecting the beliefs of another person, comes from distress causing more distress by acting on it. I forgive you though.

They have a tendency to make some thoughts seem more profound than they are. Bits and pieces of it make sense, other parts are pretty out there. What type/dosage are you taking Solodris? Even low doses taken as prescribed (legally) can have strange consequences. I mean no disrespect.

I slept well tonight though. Suggesting my mood swings are calming themselves down, for now.
Coherent philosophy is the job of a lucid mind.
