Okay, I'll bite. How are rocks conscious under Josh's definition or any
other non-LSD-tripping-or-batshit-crazy definition?
The way you phrase your question indicates your knuckle-dragging predisposition
making it difficult to responsibly expend an effort in attempt to satisfy your
- piqued inquisitive biting action.
Yes, my tone was overly harsh, and I apologize for that. It was more
indicative of my frustration with the common practice on this list of
spouting nonsense like "rocks are conscious" *without explaining what is
meant* by such an ostensibly ludicrous statement or *giving any kind of
a justification whatsoever*. This sort of intellectual sloppiness
seriously lowers the quality of the list and makes it difficult to find
the occasionally really insightful content.
