Any assertion of the existence of any of these preternatural things humans have irrationally feared for millennia is baseless. None has been evidenced...

Life is a duration of time within which a self-replicating container of energized tissue can support "microorganisms", as far as I can tell.

Until very recently, philosophy was exclusively fat lazy males rubbing their chins and scratching their heads and pretending idle talk sprinkled with ...

There's no such thing as "making the impact of the supernatural intelligible". All impact is natural, and delusion is the only reason to assume otherw...

There's no way to sensibly articulate this, so it's understandable that you were unable to. The "mind" is physical and requires certain physical param...

You're not talking about evidence, you're talking about personal experiences that haven't been demonstrated or replicated. This isn't about denying so...

There is no sense in "logic" that attempts to lead from nothing to something. To say that I'm "blindly guessing" is to suggest that there's some visib...

Then you cut and paste 3-7 word portions of a sentence and place them out of context as a stand-alone phrase in order to inject your irrelevant and un...

If I was uninformed then you wouldn't be "reminding" me, you'd be "informing" me. I guess this is what you do, you go look on the internet for obscure...

Are you ever going to participate in a discussion?

So what you're effectively saying is that it isn't Christianity and fits nowhere within or alongside Christianity. So then I'm left wondering why you'...

That's a matter of people having an impact on other people and has no bearing on whether or not gods have been evidenced. That modern humans repeat or...

I'm unable to take it for anything if it's vague and has no bearing on the conversation. That's why I asked you to elaborate, but if you're unwilling ...

You're going to have to elaborate, your response is vague and has no bearing on the conversation.

I've read both positive and negative sentiments by Nietzsche concerning Jews, as well as women, musicians, philosophers, Germans, Europeans in general...

What was "perverted" about Nietzsche, specifically, and why would you place him in a category with Nazis, who were not philosophers.

Yes, as a result of Karl Marx, approximately 120 million innocent people have died, several economies have failed or are failing, several bitter revol...

In my opinion, philosophy as a field of study is regressive and fundamentally useless to society, but discussion, debate and "philosophizing" can be u...

I'm not sure where "content people" fit in here. If you're content, then you're likely not using enough of a given substance to have a significant imp...

As far as the OP, I have two things to say. The first is that your opening statement is inaccurate. Philosophy, for thousands of years, has been a men...

Some rather smart people, such as Aldous Huxley for one, Timothy Leary for another, would disagree with your separation of substance use from matters ...

Why expend so many words, all you needed to say was "I don't like skeptics, they're self-centred and don't know how to experience things properly". Ev...

It's alright, just people tend to highlight others' names and then misquote them badly, so I wanted to ensure I wasn't being affiliated with Gnostic h...

Why did you group me into that comment? It has nothing to do with me.

I don't "know" whether or not I exist either, but evidence strongly suggests to me that I do, and until such a time as evidence is presented to the co...

So what you're saying, in summary, is that Buddhism makes no sense?

I know that gods don't exist as confidently as I know that I exist. In answer to your question, I'd have to say that more people believe in gods than ...

No, it's a parlour trick the mystery of which has long been unveiled, yet everyone still flocks to it. The illusion is whatever an individual creates ...

You're misconstruing my post again, and yours is so poorly written that I'm unclear what you're attempting to communicate. This thread is about the "m...

I have two questions before I even attempt to join this dialogue. How are we defining "hate"? How are we defining "hate speech"?

I'm not sure how long people will insist on using "Scandinavia" as a model for the supremacy of socialism parroting a moron socialist like Bernie Sand...

Where in the rule book does it state that all posts must be interesting? You're wrong about grammar, but you don't see that because you lack understan...

The word "Christianity" is a name for a religion--if you're too stupid to understand this, then there's no point talking to you. I made no assumption ...

The poor benefit exponentially under capitalism when compared to socialism or communism. It's obvious.

Prejudice can be rational or irrational, phobia can't be rational.

Observe as in obey or adhere to, not watch, and I'm sitting here waiting, go nuts. Also, provide a list of words I misused, and my post wasn't feral o...

Prove to me that humans can even observe the morality they make up in their heads, let alone a morality greater than themselves that preserves and ben...

Okay then, refer to things humans are doing to enhance the planet and enrich their own lives as well as those of other species, and explain what was a...

Anyway, I don't know the meaning of life, but I know the purpose of human life--to transport bacteria to other planets.

The moment you exempted "Buddhas" from instinct, whatever that means, you made the rest of your monologue just a bunch of blah blah garbage most peopl...

Reading all of your poor grammar was not at all worthwhile. You spewed a bunch of bad ideas with no reasonable explanation in order to carry yourself ...

I don't think any self-respecting scientist believes in inherent meaning in science without applying their spiritual outlook onto it. For some people,...

Did you exit the birth canal philosophizing, what do you mean by naturally inclined, and if you're implying that philosophy is human nature, then what...

Classical philosophy is not much more refined than Yahoo Answers.

Firstly, Nietzsche's primary concern seemed to be the freedom of others, and anything within his texts that suggests otherwise can often be ascribed t...

I'm still waiting for the OP to define "Gnostic Christianity" for me.

Okay, two things. The first is that God has in every case been described, either as a physical thing or series of physical things or as something that...

Your comment seems to be intended more as offensive than offended, in a passive aggressive sort of way. I'd like to know what you think "philosophers"...

Wouldn't "Gnostic Christianity" be better labeled as "Gnostic Anti-Gnosticism", or perhaps "Anti-Christian Christianity"?

Alright, well now I looked up "Gnostic", and it defies at least the English-translated writings of "Christianity", so I'm led to conclude that "Gnosti...
