Mr. Markle starts a thread that President Obama has some sort of association with Reverend Wright's daughter but the connection is improbable and remote. Wordslinger thinks all drone attacks are killing civilians as a common everyday result of war, and the connection is improbable and remote, but yes civilians have been killed in those attacks, but as a percentage of the last 10 years of war, they are statistically very remote and isolated. T starts a thread that says a comet could hit the earth.....it could, but like the sun exploding next thursday it is improbable and remote. Most intelligent people structure their lives in the probable.....if I push my garage door opener, the garage will open........however there is a remote chance that it may detonate the terrorist's bombs who lives next door who happens to be on the same frequency as my garage door. Therefore because it is possible, I will start a thread which says do not use your garage door opener.....you may kill your neighbor. Chrissy comes on board to apologize for the improbable and say it could happen......yes it could happen.
I have some news for you. The Sun ALREADY EXPLODED.
The fact that you try and kill a thread that is discussing the possibilities which are in FACT real possibilities goes beyond reason.
Why would you and what reason do you have for stopping a conversation about such a topic?
Do you only engage in conversations to where you have complete control of all the knowledge?
Do you not ever seek to learn new things or understand new things?
I enjoy contemplating the absurd. Going frm one side to the ther till I find a spot where my mind can comfortably say ok, well this my be the answer.
But you and many seem to enjoy tossing water on the fire of thought and thinking of anything of interest.
You have no deep philosophical desire to learn because in your mind you believe you know it all. What a shame. You have lost the flame of lifes desire to grow, experience, contemplate ideas outside of your nose.
