Pringles

Greetings,

A more searching question would be:

"Is it wrong to eat?"

....given that invariably something must die in order to feed.

Kindest regards,

Good point.

Some things want to be eaten though. Fruit bearing plants want you to eat the fruit. Raspberry plants are dead happy if you eat one of their raspberries... I assume.

What if you just take a nibble out of something? ...So that nothing has to die. Is it better to nibble?

Do you also oppose the carrot, radish, and turnip genocides :lol:

You're all missing the most important Pringle-related question of all, namely 'is the universe Pringle-shaped', a question I explore at some length in the 'before the big bang' thread, as this is the shape ofthe universe if it's 'open', as opposed to 'closed' or 'flat'.

Philosophy is the art of analysing questions for utility. If you're asking the wrong questions, philosophy it ain't. ;)

So if the universe is Pringle shape does that mean it wants to get eaten?

And if the pringles shaped universe wants to be eaten doesn't that infer that there should also be a eater, some supra-universal being that has the capability to eat a pringles shaped universe?

No - it implies that there should also be a eater. :D

A pringle shaped universe is irreducibly complex. Without oil, salt or the potato it's not a real pringle! They have to have been there since the beginning. Ergo, there is intelligence behind the pringle shaped universe!

Ergo Pringles are intelligently designed :D

I am convinced that the universe is Nik-Nak shaped. Pringles are too obvious... and uniform... and delicious... but Nik-Naks are also delicious...

I think the more pertinent question is, "What flavour is the universe?" I'd probably say, 'Rib 'N' Saucy'. If there is a divine creator, I can't imagine that he'd have created the universe to be a cheesy flavour, for example. Scampi is also a ridiculous flavour for a universe (and a crisp). Something like BBQ Sauce flavour has much more of the transcendental about it.
