She didnt site a source. I thought it was her own.

Then you were wrong. Other people here do that sometimes too. It's not that hard to tell when people are using someone else's words. Are you really bothered by it?

I didn't know that.  Who does that?


And I was moved by her analogy. I thought it was brilliant

If you were truly moved by brilliance, then it doesn't matter who said it.

Would explain why the formatting of her post seemed off when I first saw that post. I assumed she copy-pasted it from somewhere.

Existence actually has two broad meanings despite its apparent meaningless. The constant reconciliation of all its parts, and the conservation of any closed system as a whole.

Morality can be extrapolated from these meanings to make these two commandments of godless morality: 1). Be in harmony with one another and 2). Care for the environment.

It does if they just copied it from elsewhere word for word without at least attempting to edit it. Can't exactly admire someone's ability to copy stuff from the internet, otherwise it would be sheer brilliance everywhere. :laugh:

Perhaps we can. Perhaps there's brilliance everywhere online.

That's a scary thought. :o

There is only one truth and it is that people do have penises of different sizes and one of them is the longest.
