If a man stands in the middle of a forest, and no females are in hearing distance and he makes a statement, is he still wrong?

Why must they be females?
Is this supposed to be a sexist joke?
If a woman stands in a forest, and there are no men within hearing distance, is she she still wrong?

-- but in reality, if he was wrong to begin with, then the girls disappeared, and he spoke again, I would go as far as to hypothesize that yes, he is still in fact wrong. However, if he was made aware of his wrongness when the females were around, perhaps he would have corrected himself, thus the muttering in the woods would have been correct. In which case we applaud his learning curve. But alas, that is probably not the case, thus leaving him "still wrong."

if a human was in a forest, and no other human was around, would that human destroy the forest and claim the land as the human's own?

poor people, let me put you strait.

Illumination is equivilant to disillusionment
to destroy an illusion is to illuminate yourself. NOW, no one enjoys having thier illusion destroyed, which is why jesus was crucified, and why my younger brothe cryed for three days when he discovered there was no Yoda. the same for nature for she does not cloak her majesty so in spite for the illumination she offers us which we do not wish to see (for then also must we become adults) we destro her. but she exists everywhere outside and inside, so we destroy ourselves, and others, and the extremely foolish tempt fate.

Buckminster, i am usually cool and calm and collected, but my apologies, that post you made up there made no sense whatsoever. half the sentences were not complete thoughts, there were multiple typos, and even thought i was able to go through and correct most of them, still, your post made no sense whatsoever. please, i might be speaking for myself, but i have noticed in other posts as well, before you post next time, try writing it down and checking it, that way you will be able to see just how much nonsense you write before you post it on this very prestigous board.

Prestigious? From the looks of it this board is just a bunch of 20-something losers that think they know something about philosophy. Except of course for you, Mr. Gravytrain, who appears to think of himself as somewhat witty as well.
