Here we sit and talk about philosophy, this is...

Some rules and suggestions:
Be open minded
YOUR OWN IDEAS AND THEORIES ARE STRONGLY ENCOURAGED!
Do not hesitate to share your wisdom with us
Tabloid theories and gossip nonsense is strongly discouraged, please do not bring up such petty material.
Using italics for philosophical questions is strongly encouraged
Treat each other as your own comrade
(yes, even if you think someone's idea is stupid)

Original thread.
I thought it would be a cool idea to bring this thread idea to a larger forum community. All credit to the original creator of this thread, I am not claiming to be the original creator, I just simply wanted to see how this thread would do in a larger community.

Enjoy!

Question #1: Ehh... No, I went through an obsession of wondering if animals have self awareness, and I was very disappointed. The only animals arguably that have self awareness are elephants and dolphins.

Question #2: I will refrain from discussing relgion-ish topics publicly. Feel free to PM me.

i didn't think that was really religious-based, reincarnation is a belief on its own as well. same thing as peace activists don't need to be buddhists to want to support peace.

Do you think that 9/11 was a conspiracy?

Is moonwalking possible on the moon?

Eh... I'm sure some variation of it is. The lack of gravity means a lack of friction. I have never moonwalked before, so I don't really know how crucial friction is in the process. But I'm sure that it is possible in some variation.

That sounds like a quote from some famous philosopher

do actions have more meaning than words?
