CREATION'S PROFILE

I'm not sure if you were always this retarded or if a brain parasite burrowing its way into your skull is to blame, rest assured you have my condolences.

Ask Feld, he does the diagnostics.

Well, it sure sucks to see you go and I for one will miss your presence here at RMN.

I wish you would have explained what you disagree with about the management of the site before leaving though.

All the best at Meridian.

Are you retarded?

If making a mistake when reasoning about something means being retarded, then yes, I probably am. I often make mistakes when reasoning about something, then I change the way I think. I thought that was a natural learning process (learning from your mistakes and all that). Whatever happened to the author of the ''Why are we behaving like dicks'' thread I wonder :). I guess you just found out the answer to your own question.

'MEDICINE ISN'T A SCIENCE BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T FOUND A WAY TO CURE AIDS YET DERP'

Here's the thing: you are using the example of aids because it's something we haven't found a cure for yet. What about the things we have found cures for?

I see where you are coming from. Here's what I was trying to exemplify (although perhaps awkwardly):

Ex.:
You can cure cholera with antibiotics.
Chicken pox, diphtheria, and polio can be treated with vaccines.

This, to me, sort of gives some credibility to medicine as having achieved something.

Could you provide a list of mental pathologies which can be cured with certain techniques? Depression was one example out of many. What are tried and true techniques for curing something related to the mind? Are there any? Are we making any progress in psychology? Are there mental ailments we couldn't treat before but that we can treat now? I'll admit psychology has come a long way from electroconclusive therapy and drilling holes in the skulls of patients but it doesn't seem to me like it's someting reliable to effectively treat people.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Bitching is the thing we love the most.

Yeah, I don't think psychology is a science either :). I also studied it at uni at the amount of contradictions you are exposed to is mind blowing.

This is actually why I quit that field of study for something else as I realized that I pretty much had nothing rock solid to make statements to help other people. I also thought that the financial element involved in helping other people kind of corrupted the whole relationship.

That's just my position by the way. I'm not saying psychology is useless, I just don't believe in it.

I hope you guys won't fall in the trap of self-pity because because that's about the worst decision any human being could ever make. I'm not saying this out of contempt or anything, I honestly think (know?) that complaining is the worst thing anyone can ever do.

Happiness is a delusion just like depression is. It's all about intepreting your environment in a way which is beneficial to you.

S_M: I don't know if you'd like to read my opinion but here it is:

I think this looks cool and it does remind me of DQ. I do believe you should replace the weapon icons with the 8 bit equivalent for the sake of consistency/homogeneity.

Just my opinion :).
