Hmmm.... Right you are, rather than saying never, perhaps I should say on this plane of existence?

Thanks for the input.. However because is only a way for people to evade, or side step the root.. Because without context its only a word used to tell someone to hush.. Or to stop asking becasue we dont have the answer you seek..
Because to me, is just another way people steer clear of what Im saying..
Because Why? Why would because be the final answer?
To me that is going right back to where I started...
You ask why and then you say because.. End of story..
Sorry I dont feel that way.. And I dont think my mind is bringing up errors, or needs to be rebooted... I am doing just fine.
Its those that will see this and say enough!! Just because!!! End of story..
I hear it all to often.. (And only made this thread to promote asking, not promote saying just because.)
And presay trying to bring me back to you're reality zone.. Dont you think you could add something that promotes asking why?
No you would rather sit here and say because! Without any context to why you say because.. Its just a word used to end the thought process..
Ps- In no way would I take that as a slam.. IM happy to see I get your mind going. But if you are going to post.. Please use context to your word because.. As the way you used because, It holds no context..
It simply tells me to stop asking these questions, becasue it makes you feel uncomfortable..
At some point Why doesnt make sense.. Its non sensical, And so is because.. You sir gave me a cop out.. I thought it was pretty cute!

Understood. I too see the greatness of Sagan, though I've yet to be able to forgive him for his emnity to my beloved Velikovsky. Let's not let that stop us trying though, eh?
