People can die because of pro-choicers too, and they're doing it, every day, all over the world, regardless of whether it's round or flat. No. Getting vaccinated is the complete opposite of being a public health risk. Pro-choice is a woman having autonomy over her body. Then I suggest you get enough people together and do a street protest against anti-vaxxers, instead of merely croaking about it on the RFS board.

I have. Now quit trolling. Yes, you do. That's why you came on here to ask questions. Or to troll. Your choice.

I asked Vegas a question and you answered it so you could twist it into a thread about taking the government's filthy vaccinations. If anyone's trolling here, it would be you, Preach.

So an anti-vaxxer troll. Gotcha. Thanks for clearing it up, Erjen.

Do you believe all planets are flat, or just Earth? As with some believers in a deliberate supernatural, this belief is made more comfortable or sustainable if one adopts an Anti-realist position. That is to say in contrast to those who say that either the earth is flat or it is not, Anti-realists would have it that it is flat for them, i.e. though the mechanisms of a preferred internal logic and not any external independent reality.

That reminds me of Toasted Cheese' logic for some reason! You know! The 'everything is really nothing and nothing is everything and it is just your own perception anyway because you are god and the earth and the moon and the stars etc etc etc

At this point... most, if not all, of these societies are parodies. Anybody who'd be stupid enough to believe in a flat earth would be either too stupid to know how to use the internet... or would believe it to be the work of the devil. But....if people want to think of the earth as flat, they're not hurting anybody.....are they? The fact that they're not hurting anybody doesn't mean they're not being incredibly stupid though, right?

LOL well personally it is not an intellectual position I would adopt - but it has a respectable pedigree in modern philosophy, it (denying the world is mind-independent) also appears to be what is, if unspoken, as a method of knowledge behind some of the more controversial posters here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-realism See also explorable.com/realism-and-antirealism for specific application to scientific theory for instance.

Not too long ago in this forum we were talking briefly about solipsism, and I took the view that since there's no scientific test that can help determine the validity of this position that we need to fall back on Occam's Razor. The idea that everyone else is the same as you is simpler than the one where you are special. I feel that the same consideration can be applied to anti-realism. In the absense of evidence that what seems real is only an illusion, I'm going to go with taking the evidence of the senses at face value (including that which is detectable only indirectly).

My comment at this stage results from this from the Wiki article These statements boil down for me what my Grandmother used to say ( she was a wise old Scotswoman who died after 99 years and a full life seeing so many things from her birth in 1887 to the late 20th century) "The proof of the pudding is in the eating". IF, there is consensus on certain observables, then it can be assumed that there is a level of reality that is common.

Further to my last post to Flim Flam ( who I adore) where I said I do agree that Occam's Razor is in evidence here. Without some sense of a common reality we could have neither language, society nor intellectual shared knowledge. It is that simple.
