Logic

[M.I.C Diesel]

Just to add on, I grabbed up my Yahtzee dice & set that puzzle to my 2 sons. One who is 4 & One who is 7.. The youngest one just kept counting all the numbers up & trying to run off with them!!!! The older one called me crazy & laughed after saying, Dice don't have petals Daddy, before looking at me like Arnold in Different Strokes!!After explaining that the dice are representative of roses, they did not figure it out, yet my older son has a faultless understanding of maths for his age..

It would certainly be interesting to see. You might get the same result, or you might find that most people would just look at what's actually there, and solve it easily. We really can't say.

Which is why one would not be able to somehow correlate posted results here with the type of topics discussed, with any degree of certainty. Going from remarks on the puzzle's website, it seems most took a couple minutes, some saw it instantly, and a sizeable amount became frustrated or had problems. But again, I would say no proof either way, and cant ignore confounding factors.

Not quite sure what you meant by the last part of this. If you're saying that I am hinting at a personal opinion about this section, then you must have misunderstood me. I say with no hidden intentions that I think a lot of people here clutter their heads with too much shit, without applying simple thought techniques. That's just my opinion.

I understood that. Of course, what you wrote is an opinion. You stated that you've watched KTL off and on, but apparently at least from what I've read, made little to no posts attempting to illuminate fellow members on topics that possibly are a bit more important than an internet puzzle game. I'm saying your inference was probably more connected to past opinions.

I'm not into this whole breaking down of a word and what is represents, thing. If you read my posts you will understand the context in which I am using the word.

A shame, thought it might be something positive to add. Not necessarily breaking down a word, but adding on about concepts you seem to care about. I was specifically interested in logic and how it related to my recent logos thread. Also, logic is typically associated with philosophy, and within that field it is recognized that there are many different "types". I have read your posts, and while I have an idea of which type you write about, its not completely clear and thus the argument isn't either in a more formal sense. It could be said that certain types of logic were indeed applied and thus people were more prone to have problems.

let me just guide u to this site i found on logic...

i still gta get through these topics..

but its worth a read

peace n blesingz

personally i think logic changes with diff people and their learning experiences

i have a strong sence of logic for my environment, but put me in a situation where im unsure of my bearings and my logic will fail most likely

i do agree some people here have shitty logic, theyd rather just beleive what bullshit speakers like malachi york have to say

logic is how the language / symbol / communication part of the brain works

it is possible to set up logical traps for yourself all the way to heaven

lol yeah, its illogical that u go to a magic land in the clkouds when u die, but when its programmed into you....thats when u start beleiving

I'm not trying to pretend there is any degree of certainty in the link between the two. I'm more or less just suggesting that people here should consider taking a moment to explore the principles of logic.

.

I said openly that this thread was based on my observations of this place over time, and therefore past opinions. The puzzle and its outcome merely sparked me to do this thread.

As for not posting in other threads, I really don't read many (and before you say that I shouldn't make assumptions about the discussions here, and people who participate in them, if I read so little in here, remember I already said this was based on casually browsing these places over some time), and almost never read any in their entirity. Very few, in fact almost no, topics on these forums are of any interest to me, so I almost never have anything I wish to add to them.

Ok. Well I'm basically refering to logic as common sense and basic reasoning. The ability to see something for what it actually is, rather than leading oneself astray for reasons such as preconcieved interpretations, over-analysing etc.

Hey noel

do you eat pancakes ?

noel411,

Ok. I guess I was misled when you wrote that this thread was "sparked" by it. Also, that "the thread I referred to is a classic example of logic gone amiss".

I said openly that this thread was based on my observations of this place over time, and therefore past opinions. The puzzle and its outcome merely sparked me to do this thread.

As for not posting in other threads, I really don't read many (and before you say that I shouldn't make assumptions about the discussions here, and people who participate in them, if I read so little in here, remember I already said this was based on casually browsing these places over some time), and almost never read any in their entirity. Very few, in fact almost no, topics on these forums are of any interest to me, so I almost never have anything I wish to add to them.

In all honesty, then why bother now?
And how is what you describe above a "reasonable overview"?

its ironic that you are against preconceived interpretations leading one astray from reason.

Tostones, to be honest I really don't see this discussion going anywhere, nor do I see either of us benefitting from it. I respect your opinion and attempt to argue my points, but I really don't care to invest any more time in this discussion, which right now has dwindled down to pointless corrections and so forth. This is another reason I very rarely get involved in discussions here.

Peace

A shame. One of the reasons I question your "logic", is that many threads in KTL ,IMO, help see through illusion, and thus function as a sort of opposite to your personal explanation of logic. If you ever want to truly build on the nature of logic, feel free to contact me.
