As I have previously emphasised, all belief systems rely on the absence of incontestable proof.
Were truth to be incontestably established, any passionate rhetoric and/or dialectic would ipso facto be rendered superfluous. As truth cannot be ascertained within belief systems, all belief systems render themselves self perpetuating due to both their protagonist's and antagonist's continual and often passionate reaffirmation of the unknowable. However; Sentient life and/or existence would not be possible were it not for belief systems in themselves, as proposed by Immanuel Kant in his 'Critique of Pure Reason' wherein it is mooted that the a priori continuum of a particle from second to second is essential for survival of cognizance, often described by the ludicrously simplistic 'tree in a forest' analogy.

I was not forced or obliged to emit low pH number solutions from any orifice. Nor would such emanations lead to thought provoking circumstances. I would suggest you consult the 'world wide web' on the philosophical works of the aformentioned Mr. Kant. Last edited by Mr Logic; 08-19-2011 at 12:31 AM. Reason: illogic |

Life (whatever its base) will exist wherever conditions are right for it to do so
