Yep we are capable of all of that but we are not responsible for the vast majority of the 99% of all species that have gone extinct. As I have said be...
99% of all species that have ever existed on the Earth are extinct. This is an estimate but is based on fossil evidence etc. http://www.askabiologist....
Nah! Rather than praying to non-existent dead donkey gods, I will just continue to try to oust the capitalist profit hoarders and insist that prices a...
Hey! don't be so disrespectful towards a god going to the toilet! Nope, my main primal fear is that the price of certain single malt whisky might get ...
I bet the whole computer including the chip, would turn bright orange with a yellow top and its first communication would be "Seriously folks, this is...
You offer science-based commentary then you raise the incompatible flag above at the end. In my opinion you further demote your gods. It seems to me t...
I think you are talking about life, not gods. I think you just use the god label because you like a little woo woo in your life and it has the extra b...
Yes, I did but only to expose them as 'unlikey sources,' of our Universe. The difference was explained by @"apokrisis" as well as me. The god posit ge...
:lol: Careful, we don't want to entice others and incite a 'who can come up with the best file extension or file name with extension for a future down...
This is just the same as what Penrose is claiming. If you agree that the Universe oscillates between linear time frames of existence, then you agree w...
The evidence for the evolution of species is strong enough to be fact in my opinion and I think that is a majority opinion, in the absence of equally ...
It depends what level of explanation you want but I am sure a neuroscientist could satisfy you, if you really need to know whats going on in your brai...
What you typed is very human. No god involved, just you and the woman you love. If you abandoned god now would your 'squeeze' have less meaning to you...
Well as soon as someone or something performs an act which is not possible under the known laws of physics. We can call in the physicists to confirm t...
I don't think Penrose would use the term 'believe,' in this context. He thinks inflation is an incorrect part of the origin theory. But it must have h...
So am I yet I don't accept god as the answer. How come I can do that if god is so essential/fundamental to any meaning or reason in life as you sugges...
God is often described as omnipotent. By that definition it can manifest physically anytime it wills it. If it can't do that then it is not omnipotent...
I don't think Penrose is an advocate of 'inflation,' have a look at: https://www.sciencefriday.com/segments/sir-roger-penrose-cosmic-inflation-is-fant...
Sounds like you are on a quest for a personal meaning or reason for your own existence and hoping that the answer you find will be a 'universal truth....
:lol: In fact so far regressed that HE (I prefer it) seems to me like a tiny mindless spark with no intent. I am happy to label this first cause, this...
Yep, infinite regress, first cause required is the old chestnut but you offer a perfectly acceptable answer imo later on with: I don't feel a burden t...
I don't think Penrose agrees with you here. He suggests that there can be an energy concentration that causes a new big bang. He suggests that entropy...
:lol: But I must admit that in my head I kept seeing little square tiles and tesselation type patterns. But I could feel JP's discomfort when RP kept ...
Yes, I have, and I intend to keep doing so until it's proven demonstrably incorrect. I don't know what your personal god does for you or why you need ...
Interpretation is YOUR choice of label that does not make it appropriate for what I typed. It's in the judgment of others to decide if they agree with...
That's true you don't and I can't/won't provide their names, contact details and qualifications here. I know how computers work and no one yet knows f...
Well I think that the Darwinian facts related to human evolution and jungle rules such as 'survival of the fittest,' and the reality we see every time...
If we do ever achieve consciousness downloads or a human brain contained in a fully cybernetic body or a brain transplanted into a cloned body etc I w...
But many individuals in the world of Artificial Intelligence, genetic engineering, cybernetics, electronic/quantum/biological computing, physics/chemi...
That's a big claim friend. I would say I know a small slice of the past 2500 years of data/information garnished from the application of the scientifi...
I hope so, we can then throw it in jail forever for abandoning its responsibilities for so long. I don't know, need more time. If you give your god mo...
Atheism is often described as the position that there is insufficient evidence for justifying belief in gods. I am also 99.9% convinced that no gods e...
A pleasure to do so..... I think many theists take this position. They reject the infinite regression or 'first cause' problem by claiming that god is...
Yep, I think that's the suggested solution but you still have the concern of male sexual predators/ drunk men/men or boys who dare each other to.........
Emulation is a more exact replication compared to simulation. A clone would be an emulated replicant not a simulation. I am not convinced that electro...
I would say that this has been getting exposure since the divine right of kings was suggested and even long before that. The ancient elite tried to pe...
I find this quite interesting. If I think of my own group of friends, male/female/married/single/various sexual preferences etc. The aspects of their ...
Oh, I don't know about that, I think the number of male sexual predators are evenly spread globally but I don't have any stats to back up what I am cl...
I have no issue with it either but many many people do have an issue with shared gender public toilets. Especially women who fear male sexual preditor...
Fair enough but I assumed that you used the Jonathan Haidt paraphrase below because you agreed with it. You may still 'strongly disagree,' with them o...
