Seems to me, you are very much enjoying thinking such thoughts! Your head may hurt at times but you have to be alive to feel the pain and you also get...
But the Earth is close to 5 BILLION years old and the first hominid species had to start with inventing rudimentary stone and wood tools and as you su...
Yeah, I saw that wink Tom! You are a seeker! You are incapable of ignoring the possible futures for our species imo. You will ruminate on such at time...
In what sense do you employ the word 'spiritual' here? What convinced you that the supernatural/transcendent/outside of spacetime existed? What eviden...
@"180 Proof", @"Agent Smith", @"Tom Storm", @"Vera Mont" I agree, in principle with Lamberts recent typing's in this thread BUT we are not separable f...
Don't worship anything is better advice. Worship is an extreme, irrational, dangerous activity. I suspect most rational people avoid it based on obser...
Perhaps you are being over-sensitive. My response to you was not angry, it was merely accurate. You did not answer Tom's questions and your attempt at...
I am sure elitist vernacular has its place amongst those who regularly employ the same, but it will not do much to help lay people understand what the...
I don't think females are asking to be valued equally to males, I think they are exclaiming that there will be continuous hell to pay, if they are not...
So, your advice is, don't make the same mistakes theists make all the time. Probably good advice, but we are all forced to plant our flag in one camp ...
I don't follow the value of the path you are trying to trace out here, in the sense that you seem so unnecessarily negative. I know you have already c...
Prove it! and if you can't, then It's just as feasible for me to say that pixies live in the cupboard of my hallway. YOU wont ever see them as you don...
I don't know what you mean by 'un-observable' in the context you use it above. PE=mgh, I also don't know what 'pure potential energy' is. If you mean ...
Of course they can. Get every member of any evanhellical church, to enter any hospital or even better, any palliative care based hospice, and pray con...
What do you mean by 'contrary to all evidence,' in the context you use it above? I 'believe' the 'human created' Asprin, will cure my headache(a human...
:clap: and the universe itself, is currently considered a closed system, as there is no evidence of anything entering or leaving this universe. So, he...
I enjoyed reading through this thread, as it confirmed to me that the two most difficult and vital questions to self-reflect on are: 1. Who are you? 2...
I am sure your people respect the advice of their beloved king/god/malevolent controller, when it is exclaimed/heralded :rofl: But seriously you prefe...
Democracy does not elect 'rulers!' It elects, as you more accurately suggest, 'representatives.' A measure of 'true democracy,' is how easy it is to r...
I see you edited, :up: So in any monotheistic god posit, there is no middle ground, no start point, no end point, nothing linear. God is not a creatur...
Would that not make god, Gaia, Earth, a planet based transcendent? That would be too small a god for most theists. True but we could ask ChatGPT to co...
HeyI surely someone created a chess set of 'Olympus' Vs 'Asgard!' But it would be boring unless the 'Thor' piece could throw his hammer at an Olympian...
Even the human bishop reps have no supernatural style moves they can make, they just move diagonally as their human equivalents rarely move 'straight....
Why do you think there is no god piece in chess? Human reps fight human reps in chess, no god influences. Why do you think the creators of chess were ...
Only complete fools ignore the middle ground. They can often tip the balance. If you don't feel the pull from either side, then I predict you soon wil...
Good place to get both arms ripped off. One arm to each side! :gasp: I will try my best to stop the other side from forcing you over to them but holdi...
So, sounds like you have to pick your side, plant your flag and fight for your cause. Agree? or do you see a less binary more nuanced range of choices...
See! We would be foolish to ignore a warning from a band called 'the doors!' Do we leave our door fully open at the new year? Do we slam it shut? Do w...
Said the white rabbit, staring at its big watch! :rofl: Do we really believe that an apple fell and hit the head of Newton and then he repurposed the ...
Well, that's 'The Thing,' isn't it. Who IS who they claim to be? Who is really someThing else? Does the dog have a secret identity? Does it in truth h...
