Hey.

I'm Kay. I'm not new to forums, so no need to state me forum rules. Rules of forum respect are clearly implied when you join the fourm.

I'm currently taking Philosphy as a course, and i have a presentation due in 2 days about "The Good and the Bad". Yay being a slacker Wink

My philosphy?

Well it's more of a question or of some sort..

If everything was possible, is it possible for something to be impossible? =)

Edit: I also forgot to add, even if you say impossibility is not possible as everything is possible, but then wouldn't that contradict itself? x]

I'd love to hear some of your answers (:

@kay188,
If everything is possible then nothing is impossible. What this means is that anything is possible, but some things are just more probable. Anyway, welcome to the forum... you... slacker!

@kay188,
Ethics might interest you. To Leibniz there were an infinite amount of possibilities in an infinite amount of substances he called monads. These monads reflected the world and the monads that we see are the dominant monads which reflect the world most accurately. Impossibility is not possible in Leibniz's system because all possibilities are contained within each monad, hence Leibniz's question "Was Caesar free to cross the Rubicon." Basically think of a monad as an atom, which contains all the possibilities of our world, but reflects the most accurate representation of our world.
