This is a fallacious and simplified generalization. The world we live in was in large part built by science. If you remove this you have serious probl...

In my opinion this is precisely the concrete aim of revolution. It is not the binding together or workers to form a dictatorship, but quite simply, th...

Back when I used to be an Aristotelian, every time I encountered relational contradiction I would cut it out of my life. This made relationships impos...

This is my point that I derived from the paper. It is not the point of the paper or the author. Please stop derailing this thread. Either read the pap...

Where I bear the burden of proof there it is my responsibility to sustain and clarify my position. I do not bear the burden of proof for the fantastic...

The only thing I can deduce from your evasion is that you know very well you cannot sustain your fantastic claims. I have attempted to engage you on m...

What was it specifically about this study that gave you the knowledge that Jesus is God?

I personally don't have a problem with deism or pantheism. These live in the same world as atheism.

You have not made your position clear. You claim that Jesus is God. You know this how specifically?

You just need to read the paper if you're interested in it. I have refrained from comment because the things I want to comment on do not directly inte...

I have no idea what this means? You are telling me that a historical person is God and you know this because you read it in old documents?

How do you know that Jesus is God?

No, because you are asking me to produce my own negative. Fuck off.

Again, trying to smuggle in the premise. Define God and then our conversation can begin. Do you believe in a God?

I am an atheist. The moment you assault me with the word God is the same moment I demand that you explain what you mean by the term. I do not jump to ...

It is impossible to make such a statement without first defining the term God.

I don't think so, though I shouldn't answer for someone else. I'm almost finished with this intricate paper. It would be very hard to reduce what he h...

If you're entrenched in your belief structure, and use it to determine relevance, and it fails, then you could end up walking away from information th...

If you want to make your case you will have to do better than ad hominems and self-assertions. I did ask you a few questions that you never answered (...

This is complete and utter nonsense, what no one on this thread can see is that this is mere formalism, the term existence does not refer to actual ex...

jorndoe provided a validate rebuttal to your claims. For my part your insistence on religion is just bizarre, it displays uncritical allegiance to sha...

"Stalin killed around 1 million of his own citizens in the span of a year or two during the purges of the late 30s. There were other purges too. We're...

Discoursing on the Law of Identity: Quoting you: "Any difference of form constitutes a different form." "The material thing has a new form at each pas...

I wasn't aware of this? You mean a real, concrete absolute, verifiable just like the moon? Or do you mean that humans believed that God was absolute? ...

Thank you for clarifying, I was wondering what infinite stupidity was responsible for the incompetence in which we live.

"What happens after you no longer fear death? What comes next?" This is merely one aspect of coming to terms with reality. However, release from this ...

Both myself and G. E. Moore know that you will not submerge your naked hand into a pot of boiling oil. This is because it would severely burn your han...

:up: Come on, let's be honest here. ssu, you are something of an anti-Marx fanatic, and you don't comprehend the first thing about his philosophy. Eve...

What's this? I think you mean why do humans have sexual attraction to their own gender? Homosexuals exist for the same reason that heterosexuals exist...

I don't mind just as long as they're making a point somewhere in the flurry of their emotion. It is a challenge to clash with a skilled thinker, and m...

I should here like to concede. The refutation of error, resistance to tyranny, these things are of vital importance to the quality of our species. The...

I wish I had time to give this the response it deserves. This is surely an important question. However, I find it to also be a praxis reducing questio...

Though there is value in these questions, you already admit to the existence of destructive harm, so you can keep on playing the abstract game or you ...

A similar quote is attributed to Einstein: "The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do ...

In your anarchy-land why will people form governments?

This is the very foundation of high level thought. What it manifests, above all else, is that one is overcoming the limitations imposed by the psychol...

??? Belief in God is most intelligently traced to denial. See Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death. The question is what really explains it? The word Go...

Yes, I agree with you. I was replying to Malcom Lett's generalizations. :smile:

I am sorry to hear this. He cut against the academic grain. He tried his best to increase class awareness in the species, as well as many other things...

Yes, I did hear the Greeks were fond of discoursing on Zeus.

The discussions on this forum seem to take on a life of their own. You are right that one should try not to derail a thread, but information is almost...

That is, the word, "God," means what?

Here you make my point as I have no desire to engage with thinkers on the topic of God. That is, a building has a vetting process to keep certain peop...

Concrete stuff here, not abstract games. :up:

So as to remove my own errors from this exchange and promote a healthy environment of discourse. When I said, "there is too much sophistry in your rep...

I suspect many of us were able to follow your argument and clear refutation of Tzeentch's position. My point in raising this question to Tzeentch, is ...

- I wonder, was Banno's assertion regarding your ignorance accurate? His claim was that you could not see the fact that you had been refuted. How coul...

Because we don't think of intelligence in terms of social process, because we think of it in terms of individual effort, therefore as a society we foc...
