I'm not going to allow @"Merkwurdichliebe" to troll here anymore and am deleting his posts. Replying to him is therefore probably a waste of time. Unl...

Fair call. @"Noble Dust" Everyone involved in the conversation knows where it is. I don't see a big problem.

(To be honest though if the original OP hadn't garnered a few decent responses, I would have just deleted it myself.)

I don't know who moved it. You could start a feedback thread if you object.

Sorry, it's 6am, my COVID lockdown bedtime. I'll get back to this tomorrow.

You got your OP taken down because it was low quality not because you're a Christian. Be thankful we're allowing you to spout your ignorant religious ...

Side-note: I don't want to disrespect those who are in extreme pain (though they represent a minority and not the "overwhelming majority" as javra cla...

Anti-syphiliticism is not allowed here, I'm afraid.

And I thought music because you're the music guy... But that obviously fell flat... :lol:

I'm trying to get to where we're going to end up anyway. I reject the premise that it's ultimately possible to verify that moral claims objectively ob...

"Morality" not "mortality". Predictive text wants to mess this up.

I'll not finished talking. The above is just where I'm coming from. You've already rejected meaning and morality when you need to search for some ulti...

You like Jeff Buckley? "I can't help from looking outside for a guarantee I can't help from looking outside for a guarantee I can't help from looking ...

So, I was wrong, it's not merely intellectual feebleness to posit an afterlife, it's intellectual and moral feebleness to do so.

Life is a good in itself, dude, as is moral behavior. What's nihilistic is to reject life because you can't have more. In this case, infinitely more. ...

What are you replying to?

No, you work out which part of your post is nonsense. It's not worth my time.

Your question is based on a false premise and just isn't worth answering. Really, read what you wrote. Think about it.

No, it's the imaginatively disabled that see the distinction between the imagination and reality as somehow an unacceptable limit. Those of us who emb...

Bunch of non-sequiturs and red herrings. Here's the claim: There is no evidence for an afterlife. Here's the way to refute it: Show me the evidence.

It's what @"180 Proof" said. When people talk of an afterlife, what they are describing is more life, only incoherent, magical life, the only basis of...

Practice doing nothing. When you get that right, move on to the next thing. There's your Zen moment for the day.

I was just about to say that :nerd:

Get money out of politics and edit the Senate out of your constitution. You might have a chance then.

As I said I don't care a jot what you call yourself.

It's not so much the President that's the problem. You could elect Karl Marx president and it wouldn't make a huge difference.

I guess you're American and afraid of the word "atheism" because, well, America. Even, I, being Irish, feel a twinge. But it ain't nothin' scary reall...

I don't care what you call yourself or whether someone calls me agnostic, atheist, non-theist etc because of the fact that I don't believe in gods. I ...

If you're looking for an ideological version of atheism, try anti-theism.

Note that even if I have one apple, I still don't have a basket. Either way, your claim fails.

It's simple logic, a lack of a belief is not a belief in the same way a lack of an apple is not an apple. And an ideology is a system of beliefs, so r...

:yawn: "Atheism: disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods." https://www.google.com/search?q=atheism&oq=atheism&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l...

That makes no difference. A belief system is a network of beliefs. You qualify as an atheist both if you lack any belief concerning gods or with the f...

Obama was a corporate tool and continued Bush's warmongering foreign policy. Street is right about Carter too. There is zero racial context to that. I...

Hoover.

"Atheism is simply the absence of belief in gods; anti-theism is a conscious and deliberate opposition to theism ." https://www.learnreligions.com/ath...

Which is wrong. It is not one at all. Learn what words mean. You are both embarrassing yourselves.

No, it's not. See above.

That's a Christian church with a controversial minister. Don't spread bullshit. Atheism is the lack of a (religious) ideology It's there in the name. ...

Hey why not. Glad to see you in happy mode.

Did you start this thread just so you could get away with more pork pics? :brow:

Nice critique. I'd put it that the actual self (Self) is just (?) a conglemeration of physical and mental drives and capacities, and instantiations th...

Was a sadist and would therefore be voting to end the lockdown now so he could enjoy the additional deaths that would cause. What's the right wing of ...

As I was saying, this is the way we'll be going. "Poland’s borders will remain closed until at least May 3, Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said on ...

Exactly right. This is why I never listen to my doctor and instead get my medical advice from Judge Judy. That's to say, don't make the perfect the en...

You have a king now. You don't need a constitution.

So, is Trump the helpless victim of China and the WHO here or is he the strong leader with total authority? It seems you're just going to keep playing...

The unemployment rate (until the crisis) in Seattle was 3.3%. That's what's known as full employment. In Mississippi, on the other hand, the figure is...

There, fixed it for you.
