Saturday, May 13, 2006. In Arabic there are three words meaning 'intelligence' which share a similar semantic development. All of them are derived from verbs meaning 'to stop'. Another word for intelligence is nuhá, from the root n-h-y, the transitive verb nahá, 'to forbid, prohibit, interdict; to restrain, hold back, prevent'. Another verb derived from the same root is the intransitive intahá, 'to end, finish'. What does stopping have to do with intelligence? Posted by S.Demotion @ 7:00 AM.

Tuesday, January 31, 2006. And the philosophy of religion. An ontological argument for the existence of God is an argument that God's existence can be proved. That is, by intuition and reason alone.
