Anticipating Denis Villeneuve's Dune film (Part 1) later this year (on 12/23 in the U.S.) - perhaps setting myself up for disappointment, but still - ...
Yet 'the kalam' doesn't sufficiently explain anything in a physical sense. :yawn: As for your "logical sense", D99, it's (at best) naïve. Besides the ...
:smirk: Thanks for the malaprop! It complements my own foolery. Perhaps the topic question of this thread should be (more prosaically - pardon the hei...

Non sequitur. The length of a circumference can be measured with a finite (natural) number of and yet it's unbounded. Of course you don't. :yawn: Repe...

No. Consistent with the overwhelming convergence of observational data in contemporary physical cosmology, my understanding is that the BB was a planc...
Sure did. Skimmed actually. Doesn't jive with anything else I've ever read about Noether's work and its implications. Ain't the internet just the trut...
Believe? No, kid; we know it is. :confused: This question makes no sense. "Always" implies temporality, and time is a metric description of entropy, o...
Particularly it doesn't. Finite Yet Unbounded paths, however, do. Just ask Euclid ... The vacuum is NOT "nothing". 99.9999...% of every THING is empty...
That's Freethought Materialist Land to you, kid. :naughty: Strawman. Not only are infinite regresses AND egresses "possible" along circumferences of F...
I don't follow. You're conflating 'personal morality' and 'public policy' - I think formulations & execution of the latter ought to be guided by princ...
:up: :clap: :death: :flower: Only when death (i.e. human Mortality) becomes (medically/technologically) optional will (the need for) religion die. Lik...
:clap: :lol: :up: Splitting the difference, huh? That's "mighty white" of you, Fool; it's patently circular, however, by your own admission of "offeri...
"Common sense" intuits That I am the center of the universe ... That the earth is flat ... That the sun goes around the earth (rising, moving east to ...

I think so. Here's a sketchy attempt ... and even sketchier clarification. (Embedded links go down rabbit holes of assumptions, etc.) True. Caring for...
I stand corrected. After reading several recent polls of black voters in South Carolina - ignoring Biden's name-recognition & Obama-associated popular...
I'll be voting 3rd party for president - especially since I'm currently a resident of a "red state" where a Democratic presidental candidate can't win...

Strawman. We have always worked, and still do work, against those who have always worked, and still do work, "towards superiority". This sort of speci...
