Could we survive in a world without subjunctives? Could I write these questions in a world without subjunctives? Should I?

These are the questions that keep me awake at night. That and imagining what colour of panties Rasetsu wears.

It would be a very different world or species if you took that stance seriously wouldn't it?

If only it could be. I'm afraid there's only physical evidence for one possible world. But if it was it would be.

You have been lied too by minds more intelligent and more deluded than your own. You can work this one out. I'll offer a clue in two numbers meaning the same thing. :coffee:

There are 4 lights!

And there are no minds more intelligent than my own. I'm a solipsist. You only exist as a subprocess of my genius.

Easily. The hard part is surviving in one filled with the certainty of others! :tea:

Embrace impermanence and uncertainty. :levi:

World Party? The '80s liveth on!
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."
