  1. what makes you so sure i'm unsure of myself just because i didn't answer your bogus/ vague question.

    how can there be a point to a question that generally is supposed to follow   a statement, in which you did not state.


  2. I am not - I love being uncertain its my baseline.As a child I had a seriously difficult time and would wrack myself with worry trying to find the solutions - Whenever I realized that  I didn't know - it was magickal I just let go. "I don't know!" has become my safety blanket.

    I love chaos and uncertainty and I am not sure of anything.

    I did think of worshipping Eris at one point - but I dont know..

  3. Careful logic applied through the scientific method. It does not lie, hide or spin the facts.

  4. Nothing makes me sure. Plato reports Socrates to have said "I only know that I don't know".

    As long as there are things to learn and parameters to push, there are certainties to shake and new ones to make. No one knows it all. But thank God for those lovely practical people who remind us that life goes on amid all the theorising - that the dishes always need doing and the rubbish needs taking out. I agree; thank God for people like BunnyBab!

    There's a scrap of a poem that I rather like - I forget where it comes from - which goes like this.

    " 'Neath no world-terror's wing,

    Apples forget to grow on apple-trees".

    I forget where it comes from and can't even remember if I've quoted properly, but every time I get philosophical I think of that quote to keep things in perspective.

  5. Because when I looked, it said it was cooked through :)

  6. About..?

    God doesn't exist.

    Chocolate is good.

    Tenacious D rock.

    Thats my answer to a seemingly invisible question.

  7. we have 2 choices. certainty or peace. If you look for certanties, you'll not find peace, however if you accept that there are no certainties, and are open to everything, peace will find you.

  8. I'm sure because I believe in myself.

  9. You can NEVER be sure, you won't understand this until you experience it.

  10. i'm never sure, i just go along with it,if it feels right.

  11. confidence in myself & my decisions

  12. what makes me so sure?because i know i m human enough to make mistakes sometimes

  13. about what? some things I'm sure about and some things I'm not.

  14. Your winning smile!
