      (It may, yes. Cargo isn’t specifically car-go, at least not how I’ve heard it used. It very well may be intended for wheeled vehicles somewhere else.)

      Are the ideas of fate and destiny real? If they are, how do they tie in with God and free will? And if not, who first came up with the idea?

        Is the question as to whether you discovered these questions or they already existed an allegory to the question of whether mathematics, logic, or even reality itself is invented or discovered?

        Could reality be both invented and discovered?

        Is genius found, or made? Is it in the creative student, or the wise elder? Is it both?

        What constitutes genius? Can stupid people be thought to be genius and genius people called stupid?

        If we are looking at uniquely the English alphabet, could we trust that the sound ‘B’ would always make the letter “B”? Because the letter “B” doesn’t always make the sound ‘B’, will the sound ‘B’ not always make the letter “B”?

        When does the letter “B” not make the sound “buh” in the English language?

        (I love geometry!) Do you just study Euclidean geometry? What about higher dimensional geometry? Spherical geometry? Maybe Hyperbolic geometry? Or any other topological spaces?

        (Great! I’m not quite there yet, but I’m severely interested in it, and am on the quest to discover why.) If I only studied Euclidean geometry, would I be missing out? Does Elements contain the other kinds?

        If there is spiritual meaning to those, is that meaning purely pointed out for our fancy, or could its etymology be traced to those meanings?

        Speaking of the actions those words stand for, would God create them without a deeper meaning behind them?

        If it is true that it is a spiritual sense, then would up for something be saying that you intend to grow because of the activity?

        Quite true, since the ultimate goal of humankind is to reach up to a higher purpose, is it not?

        Then would down for something also be affirmative because your saying that you also want to let the activity to bring you down through hardship, so you can ultimately grow even greater?

        Very true and insightful; could you be referring to the way the Lord came down to earth, was brought down into the lowest place, but then rose again into the Heights having defeated death and bringing a great salvation for mankind?

        Should we also consider the fact that when we say ‘in’, we say we’re in ON something? Whereas out doesn’t work the same, nor does up or down, is that negligible?

        Yes, but could the ‘in on’ phenomena be just a tweak of the English language, tacked on by mankind with no deeper meaning?

        If a logical system cannot prove everything within itself through its own logic, then will we never be able to fully trust that logic can be logical?

        Has all logic been discovered? Is there another truth that has yet to be added into the logic pool that would complete it and prove it totally logical the whole way through?

        Does restricted logic that doesn’t have fully access to a full system conclude false statements within that system, therefore creating illogical logic?

        Can logic be restricted? Can it be tied down? If illogical logic is logical, does that dissolve all logic and prove it a fantasy?

        If we continued to ask questions, and answered those with questions, would we eventually exhaust all the questions possible? What would the last ultimate question be?

          Have we met on here yet? If not, how rude is it of me? Very, I’m sure, but may I try to answer your question anyway?

          Are the ideas of fate and destiny the way that man has tried to explain reality without God? Is anything a coincidence?

            Have we? (If we have, I guess we’re both being rude lol)

            Can God work through such ideas as destiny, while fate becomes irrelevant? If He can, why wouldn’t He tell us in the Bible? How would some Christians even make the two ideas work together? Is there even a way?

            And how do some Christians justify theistic evolution?

            Follow your heart, but take your brain with you.

              So shall you take the blood oath, and pledge to never sleep, until the statemency falls?

               


              @felicity

              If reality is both invented and discovered, then is it invented by God, then discovered by man?

              If stupid people could be considered genius, would there still be some degree of intelligence to suggest their genius? Would it be an external source, or something they unintentionally do, that somehow looks intelligent?

              Would bomb be an example, where at least in some dialects, the latter “B” is silent?

              (I would say that your absolutely missing out! Euclid’s Elements, as the name suggests, is purely Euclidean. The other geometries form out of fault of the 5th axiom, because it didn’t seem like it should exist. Eventually, it was shown that it was necessary for geometry, but only Euclidean geometry, if you tweaked the axiom, two other main geometries suddenly became apparent, Spherical and Hyperbolic. In these, what essentially would be considered whole different realities, all sorts of fascinating phenomena emerged, that is actually very useful in our world. If nothing else, I would look into topology, it might be different from what you expect when thinking of geometry, because it’s a very different mathematical field with different axioms. For example, a circle and square would have no difference to a topologist, because they could be continuously deformed into each other without changing any topological properties.) Would you be interested in learning more?

              Would God create those words specifically at all? Or would he let humanity create endless words and meanings for them after Babel?

              How should I affirm that you are precisely correct?

              Perhaps, but would that not also likely be true with the this whole debate?

              What would Kurt Gödel have to say about the nature of having all logic? Would we not all have things much more figured out, and be more agreed upon both the existence and nature of God?

              Is Russell’s paradox a form of restricted, or unleashed logic? If restricted, does that suggest that restricted logic is illogical? If unleashed, then does that mean that logic really is a fantasy?

              Should we aim to find that question? Is it unique and ultimate? If it is a question which no question can be used to respond, the will it even have an answer?

              Does God see everything we will do in the future? Would that support determinism, suggesting that free will is an illusion? Is this a topic beyond our understanding, as it has been heatedly debated over for centuries?

                (You have my word! DOWN WITH THE STATEMENCY!)

                Why must people insist on making statements? Can’t they see questions are the true answers?

                  Will everyone heed to this warning?

                  Are there people amongst us who do not question, but instead answer? Who are they? Will they not show themselves from their secret places? Them who call themselves the Statemecists? Will you heed to their faulty extreme ideologies? Will you join them, or will you stand with me to end such foolishness? I ask you now, will you make your choice?

                            Is it possible? Do questions inspire baristas because they are something to think about whilst barista-ing?

                              I would agree, would you as well?

                              If stupid people could be considered genius, would there still be some degree of intelligence to suggest their genius? Would it be an external source, or something they unintentionally do, that somehow looks intelligent?

                              Perhaps stupid people think they are genius and call themselves it? Or if they were compared to someone stupider than them, would it be true to say they were more genius?

                              Would bomb be an example, where at least in some dialects, the latter “B” is silent?

                              Yes, in that case, if the sound that the letter ‘b’ makes is sometimes silent, is the letter that the sound ‘b’ makes also sometimes silent?

                              Would you be interested in learning more?

                              Does not your geometric knowledge dwarf mine? I would like to learn more; do you have a recommendation for a book I could read/study on topology?

                              Would God create those words specifically at all? Or would he let humanity create endless words and meanings for them after Babel?

                              Did God create the language Adam and Eve spoke?

                              How should I affirm that you are precisely correct?

                              I suppose you would do so by making a definite statement, but since you are boycotting statements, is there another way to answer or affirm?

                              Perhaps, but would that not also likely be true with the this whole debate?

                              Is this a debate? Or is it an exercise of the brain?

                              What would Kurt Gödel have to say about the nature of having all logic? Would we not all have things much more figured out, and be more agreed upon both the existence and nature of God?

                              Should I know who Mr. Godel is? So you’re saying that you don’t think we have all logic yet? When do you think we will get it, if ever?

                              Is Russell’s paradox a form of restricted, or unleashed logic? If restricted, does that suggest that restricted logic is illogical? If unleashed, then does that mean that logic really is a fantasy?

                              If illogical logic is logical, does it dissolve all illogical logic?

                              Should we aim to find that question? Is it unique and ultimate? If it is a question which no question can be used to respond, the will it even have an answer?

                              My intuition says yes, but would we ever find it? Are questions infinite? Would the ultimate question’s answer be a true statement? Would that statement be the answer to all questions?

                              How could He not if He knows all things?

                              Would that support determinism, suggesting that free will is an illusion?

                              No, doesn’t God know logically prior to making His divine decree what free creatures would do in any possible scenario? Therefore our free will is within God’s divine decree?

                              Is this a topic beyond our understanding, as it has been heatedly debated over for centuries?

                              If Louis de Molina’s thoughts had been considered more, perhaps the debate would have been settled sooner?

                                  Can God work through such ideas as destiny, while fate becomes irrelevant?

                                  If destiny is a predetermined course of events considered as something beyond human power or control, is it the same thing as God’s omnipotence? Is fate just the consequences of one’s actions?
