h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hello there! Your philosophical quote 'To believe in absolutely nothing is to believe in one thing, that is to believe that it is possible to believe in absolutely nothing, therefore it is impossible to believe in nothing, as you must believe in one thing.' is in this week's Post.

What do you say to:

'I believe in absolutely nothing, if that's possible, and if not, I don't care.'

I used to try fairly hard to believe in nothing. It's not easy. Nothing is so hedged in and surrounded by stuff.

Yes well I thought of that one in a argument against a Athiest who said he belived in absloutly nothing. I of course proved he had to at least belive in one thing with that sentance, works wonders.

Atheism is hard; it requires a lot of faith.

yes well that there problem.

Hey does this mean I am actuly a member of the Philiosphers Guild or what?

All you need to do is to wish it.

Here, we are over the rainbow

...Rrrright...

There is an "official" way to join the Philosophers Guild: go to A837407 and write a philosophical quote in the box provided, click and you're in. It should get you into the convo F99908?thread=212558&skip=480&show=20 "Click here to join". Maybe you've done that already.

I thought it said to type in a quote and a name... hmmm...

Typing your name is optional because the beeb-bot does it for you.

Yes well thats as may be, but I just follow instructions blindly.

Yes, but you haven't have you? At least I don't see "Click here to join" F99908?thread=212558 on your list of conversations for the last 3 weeks . . . unless you slipped in your quote and then unsubscribed. Now why would you want to do that?

All I did is put the quote in the text box at the guild that says "Type your name and quote here to join" or somthing of that order. Technology added me to the converation you have the quote from with the quote, The rest is history. Or as close as I can make out of it.
