One of the objects of libertarianism...is as little government as possible. Damn near none there. But, I will concede that the Australian Outback...an...

Interesting comments. I'd prefer not to go to Somalia either. But it certainly is Libertarian heaven.

"Size" is NOT always a number. "Large" IS NOT a number. Neither is "narrow." Both are sizes. The UNIVERSE, Devans, MAY be infinite. Use that as a numb...

Devans...are there any days where you are not pontificating? "The 'size' of the universe" MAY not be a number at all. It MAY be infinity. What we huma...

Thank you for your lengthy response, ZhouBoTong. (Is there a shorter name I can use and still show respect?) Rather than respond to the entire post......

Yer Velcomb.

There is no "u" in thanks.

Thanks.

Someone IS being triggered, S...YOU. Don't let me get to you so easily. And call me anything you want. I am simply telling you I am not a theist nor a...

I do not understand your question. If you are taking issue with something I wrote...tell me what it is and we can discuss it.

No it doesn't. No, I haven't. There are people who "believe" there is at least one god; there are people who "believe" there are no gods. I am not par...

Libertarianism is NOT a move towards freedom or liberty...it is a move toward chaos and anarchy. Anyone who truly wants to live in a libertarian socie...

I am NOT a theist...although I do not "believe" there are no gods. And I am NOT an atheist...although I also do not "believe" there is at least one go...

Yeah...like the lack of evidence that there are any sentient beings on any planet circling the nearest 25 stars to Sol... ...is evidence that no senti...

I understand. Okay.

Okay!

Should have been "feelings." I made a mistake. You are correct in pointing it out to me. Sorry for the mistake.

My guess is you do not.

Awww...are your feeling hurt? C'mon, grow up.

"The evidence!" What a laugh. Identify two pieces of unambiguous evidence pointing one way or the other on the issue. When you find you cannot... ...i...

Apparently, even MATTER is not made up of MATTER. Ultimately, it is made up of energy. Or of an infinitely regressing halving of a unit of matter...or...

'Nuff said? Another blind guess being called a "belief."

There is that term again. YOU BLINDLY GUESS THAT MATTER CANNOT BE INFINITE. Aside: There is a decent chance that "matter" is infinite. Science at the ...

I can make some guesses about what MAY BE the possible explanation: It may be part of the illusion. It may be a part of what we humans do not know abo...

BUT...the REALITY MAY be that all there is...is infinity. There may be no expanding...just the illusion of expanding. Sorta like the illusion of the s...

If anything...it is a BLIND GUESS called Finitism...which you are disguising by calling it a "belief." It may be correct...and it may be incorrect. No...

If all you people would just add the words "what we humans consider to be"....to "space" "time" "the universe" "infinity"...and all that lot... ...per...

Comment #3: If the word is not ambiguous...why are there so many arguments about strong-atheism or weak-atheism...and why does that distinction come u...

COMMENT #2: People who uses "atheist" as part of a personal descriptor either assert a 'belief' that no gods exist...OR that it is much more likely th...

Well...if "atheist" means "one without a belief in any god"...that WOULD mean agnostics are atheists. But most agnostics I've known DO NOT want to be ...

I get the feeling this sounds a lot more profound than it is. It sounds to me like someone talking about how he sees he could improve HIS life...and t...

Anything that is not established as "impossible"...is, at very least, "possible." Human imagination does not even come into play with that.

You seem to be denying how little ants know about the cosmos outside our our galaxy, Devans. First I want to acknowledge an error. I left Neil Tyson's...

Humans contemplating the REALITY of existence are like ants contemplating the extra-galactic cosmos, Devans. Your ego is larger than the hypothetical ...

One...you are making a blind guess that it would take a brain that size...fabricating the guess from essentially NOTHING. Secondly, you are constantly...

You are talking about "God"...a specific entity or supposed entity. The difference in wording I am calling to your attention has NOTHING to do with gr...

Two questions, if I may: One...why do you consider the Abrahamic tradition (which you apparently see to be monotheism) to be an "advance" over polythe...

Devans99 That may or may not include a god, Devans! A god or gods...not God. At least that is the way it should be worded if you truly are working on ...

Then you are not succeeding. I suspect that has to do with selective blindness. But let's let that be for a moment...and concentrate on something else...

One...there is NO debate. There is you pontificating about the true nature of REALITY...and others explaining some of the inconsistencies of your "rea...

Devans...you have no idea of what "started everything else off"...nor if "everything else" was actually started off...or if it always existed. You are...

See my comment above.

Either NOTHING exists...or at least ONE THING had no cause. If ONE THING had no cause...that ONE THING could be EVERYTHING. This entire discussion can...

So...NOTHING exists...right? Things without starts make no sense to you...and you are saying that everything must have a start...so NOTHING can exist....

S, you do realize that I do not much care about what you mean, right? The moment you dismissively told me that I did not meet your standards for repli...

Yes it does. And I am proud of myself. What you are doing speaks of you. My condolences. Don't flatter yourself. You do not offer me a chance to be re...

You seem unable to understand reasonable commentary...so why should I offer it. As for dignity...you are the guy who said he was through here...and ye...

Okay. I've been very clear. Your comments are muddy. But then again...you are speaking your mind. You cannot even spell it correctly; it is prepostero...

Touche'. I've done that myself. I've been an op ed writer for decades...and there are times when I look back at some of the stuff I wrote earlier in m...

Still need insults to help you get by. Interesting. Anyway...I had to take statistic three times in university. One for my undergrad major of economic...
