• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    I A Boob

    The Philosophical Implications of the 'I A Boob' Thread An Aesthetic Analysis The 'I A Boob' thread is one that doesn't clearly express what a thread usually should, that is, functioning as a place of discussion on a topic, and instead functions more of a vague recollection of events in a...

    Masculism

    This is True, yes, but I'm not sure how you consider them a "minority"? The dead white males of history, world literature, and politics are a good indicator to me that they are quite powerful. The only reason why males haven't got attention to these causes is because other, more powerful males...

    Masculism

    I concur. Not to mention that, how one gains gender equality is by strengthening the causes, pursuits, and socio-economic power of women. Men are not the ones disadvantaged by wage disparity, or other types of persecution comparable to the ones the feminist movement is fighting against. That's...

    Purpose of Living?

    Usually I do the inverse of that. An aside: I think I'm going to continue believing in the soul and immortality/reincarnation of/for all humans for extremely personal reasons. Does anybody else believe in somesort of continuity of consciousness even if not believing in a deity?

    Purpose of Living?

    Otherwise known as 'weak atheism'. A breakdown: Strong Atheist: "No f*cking way there's any supernatural anything. Its not logically sound, and will never happen. Ever. I mean, what kind of ignorant spaz believes in a big magical dude in robes in the sky? Wtf?" Weak Atheist/Agnostic Atheist...

    Purpose of Living?

    That's a good point, and I'm going to stay alive until I expire by forces that aren't me. However, I am interested in hearing what everybody's meaning of life is though. -stands aside as spectator-

    Purpose of Living?

    Hmm...well, inequality (esp. sexism) pisses me off, so I am going to use my frothing rage to turn it into positive activism to make other people's lives better! :D

    Purpose of Living?

    Thats kind of like saying I have a desire to eat over not eating because I haven't stopped eating, and not because its difficult to stop while acknowledging it is. The only reason I haven't is because killing myself is hard to do. I suppose I live for the reason that its easier, because I can...

    Purpose of Living?

    @Music Dragon: Okay, let me rephrase: Give me a reason why life is more desirable than death.

    Purpose of Living?

    I am extremely open to all theistic and atheistic viewpoints if there can be a convincing argument for a 'why' to continue to living under that worldview. And when I say a 'why' I don't mean just "a purpose given by X" but I am interested also in hearing irreligious 'whys' like "you should live...

    Egypt Protests

    I'm glad the Egyptians won their War of Independence, without a full-scale military conflict lasting a few years.

    Music that gives you shivers

    A Cruel Angel's Thesis (German cover "Grausamer Engel") by Oikawa, Satō, Ōmori, cover by Strawbelly Cake. Komm, süßer Tod (trance version) by Arianne, remix by ? [End of Evangelion Soundtrack] I love different variations of the above, but I think those are my favorites.

    Nah, I didn't see the first season, I only saw the second. Well, that could be true too.

    I like the Warblers, but I have the growing suspicion that they are just manipulating Kurt in order to have him sing for them, as opposed to actual kindness and acceptance.

    The Paranormal?

    Every single one, out of thousands (if not millions) throughout human history, is mistaken or lying?

    The Paranormal?

    Yes, but all it takes is one out of the multitude to be true. That sounds like some sort of citeable logical fallacy, but if just one of those haunting/NDE accounts are 1)true 2) unmistaken 3) supernatural, than it would prove a whole host of things. And why wouldn't at least one of the...
