I just keep talking with them. I get my answer by continuing dialogue. If I understand what I'm talking about, it should be clear whether they underst...

I think it is a matter of weak brains that are more susceptible to religiosity, ideology, and magical sophistic and same-sex solipsism. It is no myste...

@invicta I worded that badly. I don't think fish are inferior, I think they are fish, and yes they have means of communication. Look at sharks. My poi...

Okay. But if a fish could speak and be intelligent enough to have enough self-awareness, introspection, and skilled enough understanding and use of la...

How can we say that suffering is an illusion? Are cancers, chronic painful medical conditions "illusions"? Was the Holocaust "not real"? Did black sla...

Explain?

To me the question is not whether or not atheism is significant to just theism but instead what is the significance of theism and whatever that signif...

If so how can we say these behaviors are done based on ones belief or structure of beliefs overtime and not recently gained knowledge or an axiomatic ...

See below. If we all have god powers, no one has god powers or we all have god powers and wouldn't make much a difference. We would form "god societie...

I would give everyone else god powers and then watch us all fight to the death in all the chaos.

Haha, well I don't think it may happen now because the republicans are throwing up time-stalling lawsuits. I got an email from the Department of Educa...

I think this is a capitalism issue. I don't think people are fussed about jobs, they are fussed about having no work and bad pay. Stunting technology ...

I think the easiest justification is that rational compassion harms no one, but lack of any rational compassion harms all by direct and indirect negli...

Torturing is definitely bad but it's not because it is "claimed to be bad" or spoken into existence as being a bad thing nor is it because of the acti...

Who cares? Humans are GOING TO PROCREATE because that's what humans do. Who cares if we "should or shouldn't". This is completely unrelated to your or...

It's literally in your own post. That is the first question you asked is basically: "Should he introduce sentient life if he has the power to do so or...
October 24, 2022 at 00:01
Why do humans have to "rationalize" their consumption and not other animals? What is the point intellectualizing an animal eating another animal? It's...

Biden just forgave thousands of my student debt. Thanks Biden and Harris!

Luckily you can work from home in crusty Chester Cheetah pajamas now and still make 100k. Why do you associate "work" with NEETING or slaving up a mou...
October 23, 2022 at 23:35
They obviously should not introduce sentient life into the world. And if they do, then they should help the suffering and those that need help. It is ...
October 23, 2022 at 23:29
Help the suffering and those that need it. That was easy.
October 23, 2022 at 23:19
Thank you!

Hello, I am traveling soon and have a long flight ahead. What would be some good books to read along the way?
June 08, 2022 at 02:35
Um, no. The universe isn't "everything inside the universe". The Kalam argument never lifted off the ground. There is no evidence for any kind of uniq...

Um, what? Please dumb it down.
April 02, 2022 at 15:13
We can agree to disagree. I think most women suffer more from biological neurosis more often than not stemming from being of smaller stature. Yes, lar...

Is this supposed to appeal to me because she's a woman and some feminist? Don't do that. Drowkin was batshit crazy and most sane people do not care ab...

No. Wtf! You act like women spend even a significant part of their lives pregnant with a baby in the womb. A majority of a woman's life is not spent p...

Duh. Wtf do you think is a "reason" or "purpose" for dicks to exist are for aside from sticking them in vaginas. What are livers for? Ethical decision...

This is absolutely insane. A woman choosing to not sleep with you is not an act of revenge; you just feel so because you are drowned in entitlement. T...
March 26, 2022 at 02:44
Likewise, posts like this make no sense. You are the same as the gender fetishiests that think males and females can "transition" unironically, while ...

It is very simple. The necessary attributes in order to constitute X, all said 'parts'. What are the 'necessary' attributes of Sodium? Sodium is not '...

This person is intersex, as it says on the wiki. People with abnormal or mixed-sex characteristics/traits have always been "intersex". Intersex is unc...

Old bearded white male usually. European accent helps, too. Like British. Everyone else is called a nerd, suicidal, or neurotic.
February 13, 2022 at 07:06
God has free will in the same way we do. All the subjective claims of theistic god in terms of morality allude to a moral agency. That's why the whole...

I think it's not even a stretch to say God has already committed suicide.
February 13, 2022 at 07:01
Either transsexuality does not exist, or it is incoherent. A male and female cannot transition to the opposite sex because they lack the necessary att...
February 13, 2022 at 06:39
Examining this is kind of the point of my question. Why do you think that is? Maybe because castigating them serves no utility for either party. I thi...

Well, I'm not that intelligent, I'm fine with that. I just ask random questions on here that come into my head while reading or watching Star Trek rer...
February 09, 2022 at 02:40
For truth and math, maybe. Does 1 + 1 = 2 have a reason? Does it need a reason to always equal "2"?
February 09, 2022 at 02:33
Ok. That shit wasn’t the question, though. Read the last part which contains a question.

White men through cultural socialization automatically think POC are less qualified and less competent than white counterparts. The bias of perceiving...

This post is so daft. This is not how disproving something works. Scientists do not need to 'objectively know a unicorn' or be omniscient to objective...

Depression is only problematic to the extent it is an indifference or apathy to the wellness of self, thereby diminishing the importance of self-inter...

Novelists can write things that scientists and philosophers cannot. Science explains what is real and it's mechanisms, the novelist describes and brin...

I think it's just a buzzword to throw everyone off like "omniscence" having any correlation to the position of atheism. I do not care about the word i...
