Gratitude, Compulsion, Idiocy or Nobility?

Goodbye Kumar.

I join Pixel42 in tiring of your evasion and games.

You are the worst, most dishonest jain ever. It's a good thing religion is bollocks, or you'd be headed to whatever the jain equivalent of hell is.
 
No, that's why you ask rhetorical questions. You do not expect them to be answered.

Because neither get right answers nor expect. Rhetorical questions from both sides.

ANYWAY, we have relaxed a bit by TTTTs. Now, coming to point relevant to topic, tell me about "Deception" as I recently indicated.

You have recently been trying to deceive us by asking "rhetorical" questions with a hidden agenda, but failed because it wasn't hidden very well.

No.
Do not speculate about me for next five dàys.

Get well soon.
 
NO. Only coherent. Reply to two lines can also be in two lines respectively in same post.

That, in English at least, is meaningless. Totally null. Void. Semantically empty. And rather silly into the bargain. Additional examples abound in these threads - indeed any discussion where your posts are found.
 
In irrational ego, preceptions & self interests, even irrational one can be counted as abnormal whereas 50 as normal and rightful. Fault of prevailing current environment.

That has to be about the most flamboyantly irrational and irrelevant response possible, even here. It truly has nothing at all to do in any conceivable way with the post it refers to.

In case anyone missed the original reference, I remarked that George Boole, the logician upon whom we all, in a way, rely for the computer systems on which we are even at this moment communicating, met his untimely death as a result of the homeopathic denial of the basic logical principle of idempotency, which is, more or less, that the class of people made sick by a chilling rain is the same as the class of people made sick by a chilling rain and another chilling rain.

I challenge anyone reading this to find any relevance in the quoted post above to that fact.
 
Really? Truly? Sincerely?

Simply please answer these two questions, in Yes or no ONLY:

1.Does Jainism bring faith in its followers? (Let it be of any type faith).

2. Does Jainism suggest some physical, mental and spiritual exercises?

1. Yes. So did Thuggee.

2. No. It suggests cap wallahs wearing off-white pajamas squatting on their hams while making small deals in rice and cooking oil. Not bad guys, but deeply, widely, comprehensively

BORING.

Oddly enough, I'd have answered just the opposite in another way.

Does Jainism "bring faith..."? No. To bring it is to cause it. Clearly one must have the faith first and then adopt it. But of course many people have faith in other things. Jainism does not bring faith. Faith brings it, sometimes.

Does Jainism suggest various exercises? Probably, sure. Many things do. Some lead to wasted effort, false belief, nasty practices, bigotry, hatred and funny hats too. What matters is the content of the exercises, not whether or not they occur.

And look at the two of us, trying (you*, anyway) to answer Kumer's questions intelligently.

Truth is, most of his effusions defy coherent responses. You can read entire Mahakumar paragraphs backwards and get just as much sense as 'tother way.

* Me? I just roll out my trusty, rusty rodeo clown barrel and yank the bull's tail. 'Tain't hard. 'Tain't hardly worth doin' neither. Om mani pay me some.
