It does a pretty decent job of showing why attempts at trying to apply Gödel's Incompleteness Theorem to philosophy or debates is pretty much fallacious. I may get around to writing a review of it in the members' section.

Not a very intellectually stimulating acquisition, but I was able to pick up a copy of Halo 4 today and am eagerly looking forward to getting into it after work.

I need to find many books about this, and no, I'm NOT interested in this topic because I don't know how to live here and now. - This topic is just very exciting for me because of personal/private reasons.
- Anyway, some people look forward to Saturday even though it's Wednesday hee hee this isn't any different for me than when people look forward to another life, because they can't be sure that they are still alive on Saturday?!
I do live here and now, and I'm very happy. But even I can look forward to Saturday if something special is going on.

People who believe in life after death, no matter what spin they put on it, should be made to test their theory by being put to death.

Well, that's a head-tilter. Death in the "latest material enjoyment" thread. How delightfully morbid. Am I on the funeral director forum, again?
This is my favorite book about life after death. I think maggots and morticians have some expertise on this subject.

My latest enjoyment is the free down load of H P Lovecraft's Sonic Sound of Horror. I was listening to WCBU's public radio station, "To the Best of our Knowledge," Each weekend they discuss a differnt topic. Last weeks subject was We are Surrounded by Sound. They discussed H P Lovecrafrt's Sonic Sounds of Horror. I found the discussion very intersting.
