god must be atheist

I saw a video on Youtube that answered your question for me to my satisfaction. The guy was basically saying that there are two moralities, one carrie...

My lesson from this thread is that theists are addcited to the opium of the masses. Once you start it, you'll forever be missing it if you don't conti...

To me, any definition will do. Because we have no evidence of god, we have no evidence of god's alleged quality, quantity, capability, wishes, demands...

Christianity, the biggest and meanest :-) western religion has spiritual texts called the Bible,and the ideology taught in those are God worshirp, and...

What does an intrepid leap of logic require? :-) Bravery? Aye, there is the rub. I'm a chicken, in a sheepskin coat.

This is the first time someone called me wise. I am being myself in the world. Every creature, every stone, every tapeworm, every star is wise. Even m...

How do you think then the word Equivalence came about? "Equivalence in expressions is a thing which does not exist." -- entry in the great Encyclopaed...

I don't expect you to believe anything. I only expect you to accept that the belief in it is just as valid and has equal probability of being true as ...

Show me evidence that god does not exist. It is the same amount that god exists -- zero.

Yes, and I proved it. I am talking "possibilities" not facts. Do you understand the difference between probability and actual occurrence?

What is the measure of complexity? What is its unit value? How is it defined? I think the quote makes sense, but only intuitively and qualitatively, n...

For your information, I am not making that claim either. I am making the claim that it is possible for that thing to exist. Whether it exists or not, ...

Ha!

Whether I took it wrongly as a compliment, I am honoured by the distinction. (NOT joking.)

I don't know... I won't be the judge, but I wouldn't call it that.

And I am not sure, but what is the philsosophical implication you are attempting to draw from this exercis, @"isaacmoris"? And I am not sure, but your...

I am not sure, but did not Martha Nussbaum say that these learned emotional responses go back so early into our relationship with what was our world t...

When I was a baby, I liked to suck on my mother's teats. These days I STILL like to suck on lady's breasts, despite the apparent lack of ensuing nutri...

Thanks, P, for answering my exhaustive question, to my satisfaction, actually. There are many corollaries you instigated with this claim, and I mentio...

The thema of the previous post of mine prior to this very one, can be debunked by asking me, to describe precisely how the sequence of events happened...

Precisely, but the development of thought re: laws and cause and effect is a bit like which came first, the chicken or the other chicken. If you belie...

Precisely. Newton discovered many laws, such as preservation of momentum and energy, such as the nature of acceleration by gravity, such as the law th...

Aft this lecture, when he talked about how in some instances the caused event preceds in time the causing event, I walked up to him, and said, if we c...

Funny. To me this was one theory early on in learning philosophy as a dilettante, validated me for myself as a real philosopher. This tenet of Hume's ...

You got it nailed down well. However, you can still argue with the smarter religious, even if you don't convince them. And the arguments, while clean,...

@"Metaphysical Undercover" please note: I am sorry, but I see no nuance difference between these two expressions. I am on the opinion, @"Metaphysical ...

One more case where you ought to have thought philosophically. I say this, because objectivity / subjectivity has nothing to do with proving or dispro...

If you don't know what the hell you are arguing about, then why are you arguing?

I appreciate it's your belief, and against belief I have no logical argument.** Let me know if anything changes. ** Not you, but people tenaciously cl...

And you must think about it more philosophically.

So is the claim that a god does not exist. Or some gods do not exist. If you don't believe me, prove it to me. I personally believe that there are no ...

Thanks, Terrapin Station, the mechanism is there, I understand it now. But I still don't understand the survival value of team sports. If I am proud o...

There is nothing to know about god. I am on the opinion that there is nothing humans can learn or know about god until things in this world fundamenta...

I don't know if you had a chance to think it through or you had a chance to proofread your script. You wrote: "So you could say that ... both of them ...

That makes you... let's see... carry the three... forty-two years of age?

The latter, when you can't find your glasses.

My aunt's Corningware thimble. That's what you are thinking about?

What???

The video is pretty straightforward, but the guy speaks with an almost incomprehensible accent. Luckily he posted at the trailing end of his video som...

Hey, another question... you are good at raising thoughts to ask questions. If you are familiar with eastern and western ideology of religions, or sim...

You're right. I was wrong. Users'. Good catch.

Well, get rid of the police force, and see how your town's life shapes up after that. I know it's an impossible proposition to carry out. But I do bel...

Thanks for delving into the issue of how to be childlike in the Christian sense to illuminate the wording for my sake. I hope there was something in i...

It's this pronoun I am talking about. Its proper spelling lacks an apostrophe. It's not a big deal, but it's the most common mistake made in English s...

I am curious what further insight into the existence or nonexistence of god did you gain by realizing you have a body which is independent of your sou...

I love this. So fucking beautifully complicated, yet sensible and logical. Except the Byzantines would not get expelled, due to lack of religious pers...

Thanks, SZ. So you need to repent, and prepare yourself for preeminence by humbling yourself. These are the qualities of the children, that Jesus name...

I agree with you. Things that are knowable can be used against you. If a criminal or a bad person gets his hand on knowledge, much like Adam bit into ...

SZ, to wit: I did an honest effort doing an Internet search to find the quote you used. I searched the ultimate Bible website, but it found no matches...

SZ, you appear to be connecting the wisdom of an old soul with the wisdom of the scriptures. You must forgive me, but I am skeptical of the scriptures...
