    Notice how neither the OP, nor anyone else asked for your unnecessary objection. So it’s very much you forcing yourself and your unwanted opinions wherever you feel like.

    You don’t bring anything to the discussion on this forum. You instead change the topic to nitpick on someone’s wording, completely disrespecting their argument.

    I mention “today’s society” because this push to force everyone to swear (or make them feel bad for not doing so) is a recent development I noticed on this platform in particular.

    It’s also ironic how you seemingly argue for freedom of expression, yet can’t fathom that someone wants to use language in a way that differs from you.

    I’d recommend working on your impulse control. Though it feels like you just like to hear yourself talk. Just let other people be.












  • If people small-talk in sign language, would it be called small-talk?

    Your remark about “spoken words” made be think about this and I find it curious, since “small-talk” has become something of a fixed expression.

    While words related to vocal conversations do appear in other phrases like “being left speechless” for example, I imagine “small-talk” to be more of a thing on its own in today’s usage.


  • I’m not arguing for either determinism or non-deterministism here, but let me ask you this:

    If every action has a cause, and every action has a subsequent reaction, and all these chains of events follow predictable rules, what is the factor of “randomness” that allows for free will to exist?

    Genuinely curious to hear your opinion seeing your stance on this is very strong.
