  15. Soul on Ray Kurzweil Wonders, Can Machines Ever Have Souls? · · Score: 1

    Yes Given "The mystical trend of our time, which shows itself particularly in the rampant growth of the so-called Theosophy and Spiritualism, is for me no more than a symptom of weakness and confusion. Since our inner experiences consist of reproductions, and combinations of sensory impressions, the concept of a soul without a body seem to me to be empty and devoid of meaning." -Albert Einstein Since he seems to be saying a soul is nothing more then the data collected by our senses and remembered. I submit, every learning application ever has a soul. Since it has reproductions, and combinations of sensory impressions, therefor fits the definition given above.

  19. Re:Easy Solution... on Voting Machines Routinely Failing Nationwide · · Score: 1

    Here is what I don't get,(aide from the fact that Diebold is evil). You go to the computer, you vote, you get a scan tron slip, you walk over and feed your slip into the scan tron machine. Your vote is counted twice hopefully by two manufactures, if there is is discrepancy you can simply take the slip and do a hand count. This should fix most of the issues that are associated with computer voting.
