Greetings Kenan Miller.

I request your aforementioned honest answers to the following:

What is the biological basis of consciousness?
What are Dark Matter and Dark Energy composed of?
Also, if you have the time to respond, are we alone in the universe?

In turn I will answer your question, "Why drink and drive when you can smoke and fly?" Drinking is a biological imperative. Without fluids your body will not last more than a month or so at most. This is why you must drink unless you prefer intravenous feedings. Driving, however, is not manditory at all. In fact, it is something I have never done as I am horrible at golf and decided long ago not to practice. The latter part of your query regarding smoke and flight also seems to suffer from an unspoken either/or dichotomy that you seem to be considering as two simultaneously possible scenarios, to wit: One can smoke, this is true. It happened to me once when I was cooking in my (formerly) favorite terrycloth robe and reached for something on the back burner while the front burner was on. This caused my (formerly) favorite robe to smoke and smoulder alarmingly. It is now my favorite terrycloth rag. However, unassisted flight is not currently possible for humans in the confines of Earth's gravity well. The potential implication of causality between giving off smoke and defying gravity is a spurious correlation that you should not investigate via trial and error!

Please note that this correlation is no longer spurious were one to consider the instantaneous ignition and complete combustion of a human where the reaction is so intense as to immediately reduce said human to smoke and ash. These substances CAN certainly "fly" given a strong enough wind, although the concept of volition goes straight out the window (if you will).

Please do not keep me on my toes; from what I understand from those who have taken ballet this is quite painful.

ViperaAspis you and i are going to get along just fine, i like the way you think.
What is the biological basis of consciousness? no idea, i do know that i think therfore i am intelligent means nothing.
What are Dark Matter and Dark Energy composed of? dark matter comes from the Void where the chaos dragons live, it is what the creative force used to make the universe. also the threads of fate are cut from it. dark energy is also a natual substace that we can use to better ourselves.
Also, if you have the time to respond, are we alone in the universe? that one is a tricky one. it would help my answer if i knew the origin of it. are you asking spiritually or physically?

Blink.

Welcome!

Blink.

If I may toss in:

The biological basis of consciousness has something to do with the size of the mallet or other object you're using to affect consciousness and whether it's enough to stop consciousness permanently, temporarily, or not at all. I prefer squeaky mallets. Dark matter is what you get when you eat too much red meat. But back to mallets... If you favor the larger mallets, you might find yourself in good company in the universe, but it would certainly be spiritually... in which case you won't have to worry about any dark matter and also won't be asking any questions unless you can figure out how to type with incorporeal fingers.

Unless you're using the mallet on someone else. Then you may be asked a lot of questions about the state of someone else's consciousness before being given a new understanding of what it is to be alone in the universe if you consider your universe to be the room you're in, possibly one made of bars and containing two cots and a toilet.

Philosophically, I'm more of a Grouchoist.
