    Don't you find the extension of personal pleasure to be procreative?

    But sex is for free. It's for sex! The thing's what it is. themnax said it was for pleasure and I can't see why not. Make all the babies you may.

    "God's Time" just sounds like everything happens according to god's time and not your own... you have to be patient..

    this conclusion does not follow from its premiss. the fault is that of indifference to the motivations created statistically, by every choice, behavior and action.
    those which really are, as opposed to the assumption, that all can be made well, by following the cookbook formulae of some religious belief.

    Coming back to this post, I understand some of these notions, however I think it is clearly ethnocentric, as I can point to people in some parts of Africa, Asia and remote parts of the world who are not living at the same technological pace as we are in the West. Technology was a variable in my point of contention, if communication is a signal of time speeding up, how can you tell time is actually speeding up as opposed to variables such as 'technology' simply allowing us communication in a way that we had previously not had?

    Beyond that, some technology like GPS is based off of the notion that time is relative formulated by Einstein. So as opposed to an absolute time speeding up, I'd argue it's more of an understanding of time which has shifted for us, allowing for these perceived faster connections I believe. Also with population growth as another variable, more is bound to 'get done' if we assume that humans have an innate quality to contribute to their society. Do any of these technologies and enhanced communications affect any other species besides humans? I'd probably sway towards no, so I see these ideas as anthropocentric as well, although perhaps cats would disagree and see something like LOLCats as serving a significant step forward in kitty evolution.


    The notion of higher dimensional entities operating at a different timeframe is interesting and I can understand that idea. I was vaguely pondering about something along those lines today when I was contemplating another topic. We may move at a turtle's pace to higher dimensional entities.

    But if existence precedes essence my own time already has it's competition at another's time, synchronicity is fallibly the convention agreed upon between myself and the Other, and perceived objects have the measured for science being from the Superman who's essence will misinform of the plausible simultaneity from this "synchronous" actual simultaneity which makes no physical sense. I.E. your thinking deludes you that time could have been for true fellowship.

    Do you mean you do not care to be understood?

    I've looked at this issue in terms of economies of scale. In the theoretical atom for example the size of particles and their orbits are proportionally the same as much large structures like the solar system yet it doesn't take minutes from our perspective for particles to transverse those distances as might happen with magnetic resonance imaging where electrons are raised and dropped in and out of respective orbits. In the same respect it doesn't take years to circumnavigate our world but it would at the same speed take years to circumnavigate the solar system.
    In another respect our inter-cellular communications are much quicker than our whole body reactions. The very small are proportionally faster and stronger as in the case of insects or the reproductive rates and durability of bacteria and viruses. Binary bits allow speedy processing of volumes of information. Multiplication is quick addition and the really quick occurs at the quantum level in the form of entanglement.

    Do you really think that the proton and electron for example do exist for the time being as for the time possible? I was meaning that plausibly explained subjects could be judged in simultaneity for what is rationally going on.

    I know; maybe Hegel is hard to understand too.

    We see only the past but we conceive of such as atoms and find evidence for particles.

    As far as understanding Hegel I interpret your saying plausibly explained subjects could be judged in simultaneity for what is rationally going on to be similar to my saying having and being are the same. If I am mistaken perhaps you could refine my view.

    It's the word plausible being nothing to do with temporally oriented possible. But you aren't excluding the category of having from being; you actually claimed now that they are the same ideal category. Before you were concerning yourself to explain having and being for the complete human being. Some kind of Timed.

    Maybe you misunderstood me before. The only time is now. Having and being are not separate nor is anyone incomplete. Having and being can appear separate and we can conceive our good as being far away. By plausible I thought you to mean reasonably probable, I didn't think you meant plausible as in skilled at making persuasive arguments especially those meant to deceive.

    We are ultimately studying You or "Thou". The understanding I seek is no longer ethical which is the science for knowing Conscience of the expected Ought. Thus to my surprise and consternation I am being again lead down the contingency of ... Reductionism. Yes? We all for our Doing would like to note we have reduced the concepts towards the Time different from God's (or Allah's, the ultimately self-conscious in the midst). The time of the simultaneous events should be synchronously ... Knowable for what and how they were.

    Nevertheless, I am more interested in the Holistic, truly monistic, against the dualism of synchronous Actual describing the Plausible Being of the rationally going on. And then and there for the Future there is God's Time of the Conscious made for the self-conscious. Time becomes more than time approached as beyond rational. All of this is about the understanding which is the science of How we are in the midst of Thou., the shared knowledge of knowing It.

    Incidentally, for reductionism we can conclude about the reduced morality for people fighting the fall of mankind. Holism is about the developed Idea of the freely developed Eventuality for all possible time within and above the Whole.

    Dualism is the appearance of incongruous timing as in before and after.

    There is only the timeless: probably determining the time of the implausible, really Impossible.
