Because he has a well-functioning brain and hasn't yet converted to Kishkizism.
I truly and utterly admire dannyboy for his excellent trolling that only the most elite trolls could see through (hellno, myself and that drake weirdo).
Nonetheless, first place goes to littlemisfit for he is miles ahead of us intellectually and yet remains in this shit hole to test his patience and nothing more.
Poker is about hiding what you have in your hand in relation to what you assume others have.
A psychic's facial expressions would be harder to hide as they would so accurately predict the outcome of each hand.
Additionally, until the last card (the river) has been placed down, it is unlikely that the psychic would ever truly know whether or not they'd win the hand and even at such a stage they'd be easy to read and the opponents would fold seeing that it wasn't a bluff at all.
A psychic is focusing so hard on reading and understanding the minds of others and the cards which they hold that they will lose track of maintaining their own poker-face and thus be entirely readable the entire game.
If the opponents were to then discover the psychic's power (and hypothetically not disqualify the psychic from the game since they think they are just an amazing guesser), all they'd have to do is read the psychic's expression slips at every person's betting chance to know how good or bad that person's hand was.
It is humanly to much stress on the brain to simultaneously maintain a poker-face whilst completely getting into the minds of another and discovering what an amazing or shit hand they have.
Reality is purely conceptual and the word conceptual is purely conceptual so we might as well just say this about everything then and in the end realise the definition of 'yes' and 'no' is purely conceptual and this side is conceptually capable of being the right side.
I usually us ethe BoP fallacy personally.
burden of proof
You said that the burden of proof lies not with the person making the claim, but with someone else to disprove.
The burden of proof lies with someone who is making a claim, and is not upon anyone else to disprove. The inability, or disinclination, to disprove a claim does not render that claim valid, nor give it any credence whatsoever. However it is important to note that we can never be certain of anything, and so we must assign value to any claim based on the available evidence, and to dismiss something on the basis that it hasn't been proven beyond all doubt is also fallacious reasoning.
I'm guilty of this.
The conservatives would go like this:
Con-1: "You should pay for your own healthcare to mend your broken leg so you can actually move and go back to work to earn the money to pay off the loan you took out to pay it which gains interest faster than the rate at which you gain money even though that would starve you and your family to a level of famine that would cripple them beyond repair and kill your family off leaving only you and your poor ass alive in the end."
Con-2: "Yeah I really should do that because if I was rich I would be a greedy cunt like you are and make the poor guy suffer for being born into poverty and never getting a fair chance at succeeding in life!"
Lib-1: "Lol"
Lib-2: "xD"
There is nobody called Justin Beiber in the music industry today. Justin Bieber is male. Playing 3 instruments to grade 8 makes someone in the top 1% of the human race musically. Thanks for your kind regards. Try harder to debate next time, retard.
Compassion makes one open to pain from the pain of others. Love is defined as attachment so don't bullshit me with unattached love.
Compassion is the delusion that another's feelings are your own.
Love is the delusion that your care for someone should make you feel happy, If anything, it should make you sad to give up effort for another since they profit from it.
One's beliefs cannot contradict their factual recall. This would be psychologically impossible. Thus, it follows that to believe there is absolute truth is to consider there to be absolute truth to begin with.
There is no viable psychological loophole whereby one can believe in absolute truth and simultaneously deny its existence.
My anger is my meaning in life. The urge to prove the bullies wrong. The urge to fight the doubt I myself have.
The rage I have for being forced to live against my will.
The rage at the confusion I have in this meaningless reality.
The rage is the core of my will to survive.
Without anger, I'd just be the pathetic loser I was when I used to get taken the piss out of at school.
I WORSHIP LORD SATAN AND GODDESS KISHKI :D WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
