god must be atheist

Yes. One who does not believe in his own existence. :lol:

What does POMO stand for? Google search and Wikipedia both pointed at only one meaning, to ANLIC. What did you mean by POMO?

??? Did the principled imagination contravene the events in reality? I don't think so. It's not even a principle to imagine a city built on a grid sys...

I provide one example. I don't have the research inclination to search for more. I did not attack you, and my argument was not ad hominem. I gave a re...

I understand. I like to spell "bias" in the plural as a noun or in the third person singular or in past tense, with two s-es in the middle. This gives...

What I call your bias is that you go against reason due to a conviction to an ideology. Your ideology is not communist, no problem, but you develop fa...

This was interesting read-- watching you debait with yourself on a topic of spelling.

What it shows me is that reality beats principles. Show me one instance in history where standing steadfast for a principle which stand has not change...

Why did you leave out the right wing academic agenda? Is it any different? No, it is not any different. Not all scientists are left wing in the survey...

Wow. I made myself misunderstood. I ran headlong against a brick wall because I did not know better. I THOUGHT I could change the system, I THOUGHT th...

Sacrificing anything of value for nothing, however, is recommended not to comfort lovers, but to suicidal people, the insane, and the extremely stupid...

I pray each night to God that there is no god. ----------------- I think the religious have a much bigger investment in having a god not to exist, tha...

Exactly! The carbon copy why I was not allowed to study philosophy at the University of Western Ontario. I objected to the forceful, totalitarian, and...

Here's a few ways to look at how moral hard line falls on its face: 1. Fudge -- by a socially well-accepted way among your peers -- data or else don't...

I know Amen well enough to answer this question, but I'm not answering for him. I think (not a fact but a conjecture) that 3017Amen calls those life f...

Oops. You may be more right than I. I gave it some thought and realized that women (edit: and gay men) do swallow a lot of human protein. Not all wome...

Okay, I get you. I only have one question: what is the phenomenon you call the Nordic Model? There must be some attributes that you can use to describ...

Provided that the model they send from the North to liberate the masses is leggy, has platinum blonde hair and is tall and sporty-slim.

I don't have any statistics or scientific evidence to show. I garner all my knowledge from hearsay and from posts and newsclips and headlines without ...

Janus already answered that. Here's a bit of a padded reply; padded with explanation

I am on a different opinion. All species produce the protein string that causes the Mad Cow Disease when they eat the proteins of their own species. S...

We still live in hierarchic societies; more blings, the higher your social status; higher social status, more chances to copulate with more attractive...

Okay, I call myself a philosopher, so I have a response. Meaningful participation in the democratic process... the target task is done by elected repr...

I am sorry, but if someone can't copy numbers from one sheet to another, he should't have earned his post-doc standing in quantitative analysis of nan...

Old saying: "Everybody lies, but it doesn't matter, because nobody listens." From the same publication as the remark above (from the 1970s): "If it's ...

Do you have proof? Have you measured Telephone Poles in both Russia and Sweden? (C.f.: Who was the world's first telephone Pole? Answer: Alexander Gra...

The claim may be valid despite the great difference in average happiness. That's because living standards are not measured by happiness. They are meas...

wisely said. In communist countries it used to be, especially after the revolution. Times change. People don't. History repeats itself, if you wait lo...

Well, it's a playground for religious fanatics as well, and for hard-headed right-wing capitalists who spearhead libertarian values, by decrying those...

What you descrobe of the properties of English, are typical of Chinese. (I think. Correction or confirmation needed.) Much like in Chinese, in English...

So... what's stopping you?

Yes. There will be seat-sales, when Armageddon strikes. Security, police presence. Searches by the entrance for concealed weapons. Celebrity seats, re...

It's like a price list for a Ford Mustang or such. Many things must also be evaluated, not just the inherent worth: the present value of future earnin...

I think you have to individually price each item, not give them a blanket value. A good start is law suits of the tort kind. Many people cash in on th...

I define god as something like Avogadro's number: 6.5*10^23. What I mean, is does god need our definition to exist, or to have his attributes, of whic...

I ask you, pray do tell us: what is the trigger, and what is the response in Slave-keeping societies, and in Abused Uncles' Shelters where dog-eat-dog...

Oh, it's easy to explain, praxis. I think my theory congeals nicely and neatly, but from the point of view of you guys (both genders and the spectrum)...

By following I did not mean the modern meaning, sprung out of FB and other social media use, of "supporting, as a follower." By following I meant you ...

You are my hero. For being able to read through the opening post and following what it says. NOT to misconstrue that this would be some sort of dispar...

Hey! I think I won that argument. (By predicting the results precisely.)

I think I'll take your advice. Thanks, this was the first time someone actually gave some useful advice, and AFTER reading it or attempting to read it...

Either that or morality is not other people's thing.

There are two different set of guidelines by their inherent nature, and everyone in history has ignored that to date. Please read the paper if you wis...

Why not saving your drowning child is a wholly different immoral action from viewing adultery as an immoral action is perfectly described in my utterl...

Try defining "moral" with meaning something other than doing good for others or for the self. I will show you that there is no difference between doin...

If you read my paper you'd maybe make a different derisive remark. This remark here by you actually was not derisive. I sense you truly stated your ho...

Morality is social leverage on one part, and an unavoidable behaviour response on the other. The two parts are so distant, that I separated them, as d...

So that's why all the so-called just judgments were feminist rants against white, balding, overweight, privileged, middle-aged white men. Poor Socrate...

From the point of view of the intended target of the insults, it may be a good opportunity to practice building ego-shields. Unfortunately the ability...
