Im looking forward to seeing Luffy wake up and who he will blame for everything that has happened. Now lava head wacked ace. But then again, it was blackbeard who put him in Prison. He might just be annoyed at the Marines in general. He may not even be too phased. He will most likely carry on after one piece/his dream. But I can really see some fueds starting to creep into OP now. Fingers crossed!!

RE: The New Guy
Excellent. The British Forces here have yet another recruit.
Soon we can overthrow our American overlords and implement the "u" back in "color".
You knows it! Why have they altered our fantastic language? Bring back the 'u'!!!

RE: Afterlife
This is utterly irrelevant and has nothing to do with that we were arguing. I never said philosophers know what happens. I said they were experts on the subject. You then disagreed and started this pointless tirade in which you keep meandering off track.
You don't seem to get philosophy, the whole point of philosophy is debating things we cannot work out empiricaly and finding the most likely solution. There are no definite answers.
I ignored it because it was irrelevant to our discussion, as was 90% of your post. Why would I answer it anyway, what you're saying is true. True but irrelevant.
It's reassuring that you know what an expert is, it proves your mental ability is somewhere above a 6 year olds.
Cool. I've studied philosophy and critical thinking. Do you know what a non-sequitur is?
lol, getting angry at pointless digs is pretty much the biggest mistake you can make on a forum. I've made plenty of valid points, you've jumped around them or changed the subject.
wow, thanks for this, almost forgot who I was talking to.
It isnt irrelevant in the slightest. Its my opinion. I have made it in the correct thread so I see no problem.
And I know what a philosopher is as well. Philosophers use premises to evaluate possabilities/probabilitis for things (like you said) that cant be proven factually. We agree on that one.
One again, you have disected my post yet made no point of your own. So make one. Whats your spin on this?

RE: Afterlife
Study of the afterlife is an aspect of philosophy
What about those who focus on the afterlife.
You say this like those are mutual contradictions
An expert is somebody who studies exculsively in their respected field and knows the more about that field than the vast majority of people. You don't seem to know what an expert is, I'm not saying philosophers have the answer but they know more about the problem than anyone else.Right. The Afterlife is not factual. This is the point I am trying to make. It is like me saying that I think that when you die you turn into a giant apple and float to the moon (an invisible apple obviously). What I am saying is so what If they class themselves as an expert on the afterlife. Their knowledge isnt based on what 'does' happen when you die, but on theories of what happen when you die. And anyone can come up with theories. Like mine.
And I like how you ignored my last point. That people go and seek advide on the afterlife based on what they want to hear. So a christian would go to a priest for example.
And dont patronise me saying I dont know what an 'expert' is. I have a dictionary, I understand well enough.
I have studied philosophy at college. Now I would never class myself as an expert on the afterlife. But I would never in a million years think I had the right to give people advice on what happens when a loved one passes away.
Oh and instead of just quoting me and making little digs at things I say, try making a valid point and backing it up substantially.

RE: Afterlife
It still makes them an expert because they know the various arguments and thus can debate it confidently.
A philosopher is an expert on philosophy. They study any theories, that doesnt make them an expert on the Afterlife. Philosophers are logical but they can also be open minded. But if a member of my family dies. I woudnt go to a philosopher, who would? And I wouldnt go to a priest (im not religious). I would deal with it in my own way.
I guess people go to someone who will tell them what they want to hear. Thats how these things usually work

RE: The Crew's Bounty
I don't think Luffy's bounty's going to increase terribly. Maybe like to 450, but that's the highest I see it going. I mean he did do a lot, and being revealed to the world to be Dragon's son is major, but it's just a matter of currently the highest bounty was 340, and I don't see them all of a sudden shooting Luffy up into the 600s.
.
See im not sure on this. It'l go up, but I think it will be by quite a chunk. Him being Dragons son is massive. His being Aces brother is huge. The fact that he was part of the attack/rescue mission against the WG is intense, he is one of the Supernovas, he has caused a wreck in Impel Down - broke in and out, Which no-ones done before. Plus WB said to keep him alive because he is the 'future'. I think the Marines are really gonna take him seriously.

RE: Afterlife
But they are theories. You can ask anyone a 'theory'. It still remains a theory, not fact. Hence my point.

RE: Afterlife
People talk about afterlife as if its a science. But who can be an 'expert' on the afterlife? A Mechanic would have an equal amount of factualy knowledge on the afterlife that any 'professional' has - simply because it isnt an 'empirical' subject.
