Thomas theorem: something is real if it's real in it's consequences

errr... are you allowed to repeat the word 'real' in the definition of real?

 

(...or it is a joke and I am too dumb to get it? :D)

if I follow, here is an example. we know radiation exists (is real) because we can observe its effects (consequences) (aka the consequences are real therefore the cause is real)

(or maybe I missed it completely :D )

Haha it's not really a definition. It just states that if everybody thinks something exists and act like that it becomes real because it's consequences are real. Does that make sense?

Silent people have the loudest minds.

I disagree.

Just because a person is an introvert in comparison to an extrovert doesn't mean they have more thinking capacity.

One just says says what they're thinking, and the other keeps to themselves.

 

Edit: However, if you're speaking on general terms, yes, those who are a bit smarter tend to differentiate between a good and bad situation to involve their comment.
