god must be atheist

My impression was that you said the causes we suspect are insufficient in explaining the phenomenon. This leads me to believe that there were forces o...

Aside from the causes (whether they were only man-made or a mix of man-and-nature), the alarmist attitude of species extinction and human extinction c...

In conclusion: Current mainstream scientific opinion is that the CO2 concentration increased, and that was a product of human activity. This causes gl...

I studied the charts. It is clear that the vertical scales are arbitrary as far as comparison goes. The only thing that can decide what precedes what ...

You're turning into an Xtrix with your snide remark and ignoring my arguments, rendering them moot by assuming they are ridiculously stupid. They are ...

This is meaningful only if you know the number of scientists who have also looked the question and come up with a different answer. Without supplying ...

Who are "we"? Not quite. Scientific research requires a lot of money. Money comes from political sources. I think you know where this is heading. Scie...

That's precisely my point. Global warming had become and has been heavily politicized. And in its drag it politicized science. Now we look for data th...

Simple question: in the two graphs above, on both of them, CO2 is shown as going from 300 to 400, on a vertical line, whereas temperature remains hove...

Thanks!

REgarding the OP: Humans have an undaunting faith in their own survival. When an army is commanded into front-line battle, and the calculations are th...

Okay. The operative words are "for the purposes of this thread." Fine. For the purposes of another thread we'll assume that we are all wrong, and for ...

Quote your source, please, otherwise I can't accept this.

There are other things that play into the picture, other than God and humans: nature, natural forces. There is no definite determination what causes t...

Virtue is a mode of behaviour; wisdom is a mode of knowledge. Behavour does not equal knowledge. They can both be good, but that does not make them eq...

If virtue were equal to goodness, they would not have two words with non-congruent meaning for the same idea. As it is, "virtuous" means either celiba...

India has been divided into an Islamic part and another part. The Islamic part is Pakistan, and more recently the independent Bangla Desh. What we cal...

Maybe not to you, personally. Maybe you are boring as a conversationalist, or not sexy enough. I don't know. But one thing is for certain: I have anec...

The argument is based on opinion. Why the more stringent restriction on criticism of the argument than the bases on which the argument was built on?

I would have bet ahead of time that you don't.

This is not solipsism, my dear friend. This is philosophy. You are into fairy tales and fantasies. "What if", and "I see it, so it must exist." Some c...

Fair question. The proof exists as you can't name any time in the past that had not been preceeded by five minutes, and can't name any time in the fut...

I am sorry. Everything is not proven to exist. Nothing is proven to exist, except the mind that thinks. And unfortunately those two which we can be su...

Three dimensional space is an infinite expanse. Time is infinite in the past and into the future.

You're right. I understood your expression. However, I was asking a different question. A rhetorical one at that.

Can a new member be not recent, or a recently joined member not be a new member? There was a radio station in Toronto that specialized in new music. A...

Man. Man has created god. Of course that presupposes that god did not create everything. Christians also believe god did not create everything. Christ...

I agree. Note: quote was altered by me, to make it more expressive for the truth.

Nonsensical sentences are never logical. Logic uses language and if language is used inappropriately, then logic is not present. 1. No punctuation. 2....

That man was, but Analects sounds more Greek to me than Chinese. For my own information I looked it up, and it is used as an English word. However, it...

You incorrectly invoked the idea of Strawman. This is not a Strawman, even if your claim were true. Man, (or woman), you made one claim and I found fo...

We, the atheists, are not avoiding to address that position. We are, in fact, addressing it by vehemently denying its truth. You are incapable of cons...

I am not that person that you ask, but I think what he's saying is that you are wrong. Of course that concept is totally strange and foreign to you, t...

Englishy speech, pleez. Learn how and when to use "who's" and "whose". Your ideas are even more screwed up than the language you pretend to write in.

I am logical. If I am irrational, then it's the premise that has errors in it.

I voted "not for me" when I thought it was for you.

So... the elephant is God?

So... when you say "One says..." is the One the elephant? The other philosopher is of course Aristotle, who says nothing. Or that nothing can be prove...

Right. I gotta quit that stuff. Apologies. The rest of my criticism stands, though. But you're right. I was careless. Sorry.

Which question? If you wanted to obscure your answer to confuse me, you succeeded. Okay, I must have missed something. I looked for some examples you ...

Given that we are on a philosophy website, this is fair. But you have to speak to your audience. Nobody in his right mind on this website read the abo...

You got it backward. It is the humanist and atheists above that have a grip on what morality is, and the religious pulled in God or Karma to make it p...

Oh, Crap. Did I say farmer? I meant framer. What a grube.

I never got that the point of view was changing. It was first person singular all along, the farmer. I don't think it's as good a story as the rest of...

Maybe the author was inspired by your profile picture. :-) Wise choice.

I liked the journey so much, that the stolen destination did not bother me. I enjoyed the flow, the acceleration of perplexed curiosity. I enjoyed the...

Apt observation. I agree. The story is not evenly paced. It goes from "showing" to "telling" to surrealistic transformations, nearing the spiritual, a...

Well, that's sad. I was writing about your writing style, and pointed out some fundamental mistakes in it. But since you did not get it, there must be...

I'll burn in hellfire forever and ever. At any rate, thanks for your thoughtful reminder. I shall make sure I'll only post on these threads that fall ...

Agreed.
