I'd already approached that type of query, amidst this thread.
January 07, 2018 at 06:03
My writing persists, regardless of belief.
January 07, 2018 at 06:01
I didn't merely provide one paper (although the paper I linked to contains multiple references). I also provided a link to "non-beliefism", which cons...
January 07, 2018 at 06:01
Your response above is typical, it's a common type of response that I encountered when I initially began to discuss "non-beliefism" in 2016. Such a ty...

That you fail to acknowledge evidence, does not suddenly warrant that evidence is invalid.
January 07, 2018 at 05:57
I don't detect the relevance of your quote above to the OP. Nowhere in the OP (or throughout our discussion) did I advocate scientific proof as you de...
January 07, 2018 at 05:44
Religious faith is not-scientifically founded, and this is not up to me.
January 07, 2018 at 05:39
1.This was already covered in the Op; I already underlined that belief may occur both on evidence, and non-evidence. However, it is notable, that beli...
January 07, 2018 at 04:36
a. Your argument above originates from a trivial error. b. That science prioritizes evidence, obtains regardless of anyone's belief, contrary to your ...
January 07, 2018 at 04:30
Good, because that is what the OP talks about; science is such that prioritizes evidence, whereas belief does not. As for your latter query, one can b...
January 07, 2018 at 04:20
Consider this past sequence: 1.a) My words: "belief typically facilitates that people especially ignore evidence." 1.b) Notably, my words above are de...
January 07, 2018 at 04:05
1. On the contrary, your "correction" does not apply, and your words are ironically invalid, for "proof" and "evidence" are quite literally synonymous...
January 07, 2018 at 04:03
I don't detect the relevance of your response above wrt the OP.
January 07, 2018 at 04:01
https://i.imgur.com/qx56j06.jpg Non-beliefism underlines, that "one may rank his/her presentations as incomplete expressions (susceptible to future an...
January 07, 2018 at 03:15
Simply, science prioritizes evidence, while belief (by definition and research) is a model that does not prioritize evidence. Unless belief is redefin...
January 07, 2018 at 03:00
Yes, it is quite clear you merely glanced the paper; for the paper did not end with the early description you posted (where they admit "there is no ph...

In stark contrast, as I mentioned prior, gravitational theory is empirically observable: Reference A: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empirical_evidence...
January 07, 2018 at 02:43
On the contrary, because science prioritizes evidence, while belief does not, we actually can avoid belief, i.e. we can avoid failure to prioritize ev...
January 07, 2018 at 02:37
I thank you.
January 07, 2018 at 02:36
1. I was not the one who spoke about scientific proof, user "JustSomeGuy" is the one that tried to confluence proof (which differs from scientific pro...
January 07, 2018 at 02:34
Simply: 1. Science is a model that prioritizes evidence. 2. Belief (by definition and research) is a model that does not prioritize evidence. (Priorit...
January 07, 2018 at 02:30
1. I didn't say that proof and evidence were not synonymous. 2. I'd carefully read your earlier response, so I advise that you also carefully read onc...

Why don't you wish for aging to be solved?
January 06, 2018 at 12:49
I don't detect the relevance of your question.
January 06, 2018 at 12:02
1. Belief, (by definition and research) is contrary to the definition that you manufactured above: https://i.imgur.com/GrMF2dg.png 2. Ignoring the def...
January 06, 2018 at 11:57
1. No, I don't detect that I have confused "practical belief" with "religious faith"; in fact, I had long encountered scientism, which is near to the ...
January 06, 2018 at 10:04
1. Your prior response was invalid, as it attempted to confluence scientific proof, and proof. 2. In my stating the synonyms: proof, evidence, I simpl...
January 06, 2018 at 09:23
As I had underlined in the OP, I hadn't scrutinized belief for quite a long while, so like you I had been accustomed to it. However, with a bit of foc...
January 06, 2018 at 08:59
1. On the contrary, see scientific research, showing that belief generally permits ignorance of evidence. 2. Notably, there is a difference between sc...
January 06, 2018 at 08:54
1. What "high hanging fruit" has been offered by the others? 2. Yes, that flat earthers exist, does not invalidate gravitational theory. Likewise, it ...
January 06, 2018 at 08:48
1. As you are quite accustomed to belief, I see that it may be difficult to detach yourself from it. 2. It is probable that you are male, and so on. 3...

It is somewhat tiring when people bring up scienticism when I describe "non beliefism", because as an atheist, I had long encountered scienticism. Any...
January 06, 2018 at 08:09
Where?
January 06, 2018 at 08:00
Why do you garner that belief is unavoidable?
January 06, 2018 at 08:00
1. In contrast, as underlined in the OP: One may believe in both evidence, and non-evidence. (i.e. there are valid beliefs in science) Despite the abo...
January 06, 2018 at 07:56
1. Why would using standard definitions supposedly be "the genesis of my issues"? 2. Also, don't forget the latter part of my earlier response:
January 06, 2018 at 07:49
1. In contrast, I refer to standard definitions: https://i.imgur.com/gZM9ghb.png 2. By extension, research shows that beliefs typically occur on non-e...

What possible relevance does that have to this discussion? You should be addressing my statements. Whether you are theistic or not, shall probably aff...

Are you theistic by chance? 1. True definition:"in accordance with fact or reality." 2. So, Neil deGrasse Tyson is demonstrably correct, science is tr...

1. Your words: "So we ought believe the evidence?" 2. My response: The evidence persists regardless of belief.
January 06, 2018 at 06:51
1. I don't detect any novel information from those threads. I've been discussing "non-beliefism" online since 2016, so I've seen many similar response...
