In some cases it is. If someone said music is more important than seeking objective facts about reality, then I would say that is a dangerous opinion. Dangerous. Hmm. All I meant is that there are perspectives that are dangerous. I think everyone would agree with that. Would you say that music is more important than medical science for example?

I would say a life without music would greatly reduce the reason for people to want to live. I don't think I would assign either a value judgment. If you want to go down to brass tacks, we could all sustainably live in a tiny box with a supply of nutrient goop but it's the bells and whistles that make life worth living.

I highly doubt that and if that was the case it would be a sad state of affairs imo.

Music is the only thing that brings you joy? Love between human beings on a basic level isn't enough for you? I am saying we need to basics of life in order to enjoy anything. The basics of life being the necessities that we need for survival.

I don't believe I said it was the only thing that brings me joy. Love between human beings on a basic level? Explain that to me.

Love between human beings on a basic level? Explain that to me. You implied it when you straw-manned what I said and accused me of living without joy, just because I said other stuff is much more important than art. Caring about other human beings. The essentials are needed before art could have ever come into the picture. Food, warmth from the cold and human interaction.

The essentials are needed before art could have ever came into the picture. Food, warmth from the cold and human interaction. Then I was not straw-manning. You are principally concerned with the essentials. A drab vitamin pill to cover your needs without excessive satisfaction. I would argue that it is equally important to have those things which you consider trivial in this context; movies for example. Imagination, creation, the things that follow naturally after subsistence. In any event, as I said long before, we'll never see eye to eye on this. And I'd as soon not argue it further. Please don't take that as a slight; I've appreciated the conversation and the quiz. Have a good evening.

I don't take it as a slight at all and luckily it is such that we are able to have the essentials and art. I love movies and music, but I love not dying in extreme pain and not believing the world was created in 6 days a bit more

I stopped at the first question I got. They said named the pairs .
And the answer they wanted was something like speedy and fast. But they also had Smartphone and the computer. A smartphone is a computer. So I couldn't trust the rest of the exam .

Like slow and fast, hot and cold, etc. Wait, you're joking aren't you.

I missed the bassoon question because the screen jumped and I hit the wrong button. I have a hard time believing that most adults can't pass that quiz.
