Hi Guys!

I was just reading over my 'Does Nothing Exist' Thread-updates, (It can't, by the way - On any level) and I came accross a phrase that sparked my imagination.

So I ask you this: Is it possible to say nothing?

Thank you all!

It may be tricky but it is the best way to get my husband to say something and should be taught in high school.

Not so long as actions speak louder than words...They echo.

@mark noble,
One can say the word "nothing". But, if you are a mute and you cannot speak, it does not mean you say nothing. It simply makes the verb "to speak" irrelevant to your particular existence. Nothing is inherently something. Besides, a mute person still communicates. Even Hellen Keller communicated fairly well.

Hi.

Just to clarify,

If something is said, whether verbally or physically, The transmitter must be alive and transmitting information, consciously.

So how can a transmitter of imformation not be transmitting information?

And - As 'NOTHING' (Once Again) does NOT exist (on any level), how, may I ask, can a transmitter of information be transmitting what is not?

Not transmitting is not the same as 'saying' nothing. It is not saying 'something', not not saying 'nothing'.

Is this not quite clear?

Cheers!

I wasn't going to bother with what i suspected would be tripe, but then i saw that someone had tagged this "Oh the irony," and i justed wanted to drop in to say how hilarious that is.
