We had pizza for dinner but it came out of a box. Actually, my wife always dresses it up with a lot of fresh toppings. Quite exceptional really. You don't have to eat that Veggie pizza, just order one online. Get the door, it's Domino's.
I had pizza too for dinner last night - and that's fair dinkum LOL

A conversation about nothing


Philosophically... "nothing" doesn't actually have the property of "aboutness."




This thread is so confusing for me.

I haven't had dinner yet, but I had cottage cheese with apple sauce and a store bought cobb salad for lunch. I also ate an Apple for breakfast with 6 chicken nuggets.....I know a meal fit for a king right?!! But it works! Plus I just noticed both those meals could have been a lunch menu - oh well, whose going to police my meal itinerary? God? Oh yeah God! Right! But He was ok with my meal selection today...

Let me help you read it better: It doesn't say "nothing" it says "nothing in particular" which is exactly what you are doing now. Do you feel less confused about the thread now? Or more confuzzled about yourself now?

That's very cute - but I think you already know the answer to that LOL - you are the only 'Sweet pea' for me.

Well... since "nothing" has neither "aboutness" nor "particularity"... although I appreciate your help... I still feel confused.

I think the big wordy words you use are the cause of your confuzzlementation.

Let's start gently, middle school style.
Now, use your words... gently.
Hahaha lol

Well I've had my toast already when I was on the thread earlier - but no official brekky - although strangely an apple with chicken nuggets sounds quite delectable LOL. I'll probably cook some eggs - eating late this morning it's already 9.14am. I've eaten left over pizza for brekky before and loved that LOL. Making Shepherds Pie for lunch and possible a Vegetable Minestrone Soup - that I'm not sure. Dinner - will either be leftovers from lunch or maybe a stir fry with rice again and some fish.

Hello deade, gracie, earnest quester and lizzy and 16 guests.

Just wondering... can guests post and if they can how come our guests don't participate in our conversation of nothingness

Only registered users can post. If you see a post that says "Guest" instead of a user name, it was posted by someone who chose to have their account deleted.

For lunch go with the stir fry, rice and fish.

I believe you will remain confused until you note one main ingredient missing in your synopsis. God shares with us that as long as we view life thru the optics of human reasoning we will fall short on reality, and hence, remain confused over His Spiritual truths. I would even add, it is not a matter of "feeling" confused either - it is actual confusion.

"Aboutness" is a big linguistic term for science, linguistics, philosophy of language, and philosophy of the mind. But one ingredient it lacks is intentionality to place our minds in Christ via the Holy Spirits delivery of Spiritual truth to our spirit and heart. Thereby placing our trust in God alone. Trusting God's wisdom over our own insights, and placing His insights given us into our minds to meditate, and learn from.

Unless you add God as first to this equation you are selling confusion not protecting us from it.

The thread is called: "A conversation about nothing in particular," its a simple read - just read all of it - and I suggest all of Scripture as well. In addition, your cleverness has not ever passed my spirits guard even on day one back in 2015 when you came to me as I first joined to squash my spirit of joy. I didn't budge then, nor will I now. I'm surprised you have not moved on in Christ since then....aren't you?

Fish and rice sounds awesome, but I am too lazy to fix it today, maybe tomorrow - I have salmon steaks too, still in the freezer....
