Squire of Gothos, did that 'general' actually make it home from the teachings of Kirk? Maybe that is what that episode was saying. In that episode Kirk showed love for many people in his choice of actions.

Episode 17

Says something doesn't it. If they send me the money they have to admit I was correct a decade ago when defending concepts of justice, so they can't and still hold their position. By mentioning it I make sure none of the actions I have done in the last decade are for beer and travel money. Since setting up that concept makes it so that it is never a request, but a simple statement of a condition.

Although it is really funny.

Although none of that changes the fact that it is due. Making it not about the beer and travel money, but as said before, it is about reestablishing justice with compassion in the system. Also I don't hold any individual to that debt, but that does not change that it is due either.

It is a marvelous thought puzzle.


It is also funny that they think I owe, but they are opposites, and base thoughts on what they see, basically it is the difference between the two concepts of existence.

"the one with the most toys wins"
And
"You can't take it with you"

And if it really mattered, I probably would not be posting on it, however it does matter since it is just for that situation to be corrected, as shown repeatedly. So basically they are in check mate and looking at the board. But not a competition, since the more they look at the board, the more they learn.

If anything it is probably more evidence in normal concepts, and in metaphor the statement has another purpose anyways, so can make statements to different groups at the same time with that comment.


I don't think people understand this. Basically, it is just, if it is not corrected then the world is not just. If I were to accept it not being corrected then I would have to agree to an existence that was not more just. And in the perception of eternity, why would I accept that based on some 'wait time' and I have seen slight movement, so extrapolated over infinity, my position will eventually be justified.

So it makes complete sense to stay on strike, plus many of them don't like unions and strike concepts, so there is humor in that also.

4. One does not "go orthodox".... especially for the frivolous reason of saving money.

I know you were joking, but Orthodox Christians take their faith seriously.
