I bestow a higher likelihood of long-term closeness on persons who "avoid just icking away from the subject."
Oh, I apologize. I entirely misread what you were doing, I think.
I sorta think you can't possibly disagree with this, or you wouldn't be here.
Um... kind of? I guess it depends on what sort of contrarian opinions you were sharing and what sort of setting you were doing it in.
The latter part assumed you were mainly replying to the second question I asked. I apologize for the bluntness of those questions, also. However, I would like...
I'm looking for hard philosophical questions to give to people to gauge their skill at philosophy.
So far, I've been presenting people with Newcomb's problem and the Sleeping Beauty problem. I've also been presenting them with contrarian opinions and asking them to evaluate them, and I have a higher opinion of them if they avoid just icking away from the subject.
What other problems should I use?
