I was trying to say that the whole god(s)/slavery thing predates Islam. I actually didn't bring up Islam. Hammurabi goes back to ~1800bc and that god(...

The concept of men being slaves to the gods or being slaves to the city state temple priests who commune with the gods is very ancient. I know thats h...

Are you familiar with Pan-psychism (over 11 forms)? I would argue set theory goes very much with pan-psychism and even scientific determinism (~Fate)....

sounds like a mixture of one of the forms of pan-psychism and also to some extent scientific determinism. I don't have enough evidence for me to say y...

What we experience on earth is nothing like in space. In space there is almost no friction except for flying hydrogen atoms and photons (light). Light...

all matter in the entire universe is attracted to itself. Right now i'm pulling on you and you are pulling on me. We are pulling on every star in the ...

if there is no friction (static friction nor kinetic friction) i could accelerate a cruise liner with my finger. If there is the slightest bit of stat...

did you read the article i posted. Do a wikipedia search. Perhaps i'm missing something or perhaps you are missing something. If there was nothing the...

there are videos on it but if you don't want to watch a video (there are over 11 forms and only some are ~valid IMO) ____________________ Introduction...

i believe in scientific determinism or determinism as though the universe is a giant billiards table. I also believe in some forms (the later forms in...

the iteration of events. Time can only be accurately measured in a small subset of the universe where the physical clock is going the same speed or ap...

I feel differently but since you are a very knowledgeable or atleast have a decent understanding on this and feeling/awareness, it would serve neither...

We were talking about Pan-psychism earlier. For the sake of argument if we assume there was god or gods, and if he/she ran scenarios through his/her h...

Noah Harrari would agree with you. He believes that man was able to dominate the planet and coordinate on a massive scale due to legal fiction and fic...

Noah Harrari talked about this concept in "Sapiens". This belief that there is something beyond the grave drives people to coordinate. Perhaps where t...

oh i see. i actually have a theory that i came up with just a half hour ago. Sometimes people get depressed and they are willing to "go skydiving". A ...

cool. I'll add that video to my journal. Do you have a summary of the video in written words? Even if the summary is 2 sentences long.

thanks for answering.

I've never heard that but i don't doubt it. How did they find Hawaii traveling in a small boat? Seems very risky. I've heard some claim they were well...

true.

probably. What i meant when i used the term was that skydiving, fighting a shark with a pair of garden shears and fighting sharks is the reason why no...

true.

something akin to the Balkan peninsula. but i could be wrong.

assuming there is a heaven i want to be killed. but i'm not committing suicide. Leviathan and sharks exist so that no one has to commit suicide.

thats fair.

in my opinion this is the end of america.

i agree.

there alot of people who read books on this forum. If you would like to talk to someone who reads books you won't have to look hard on this forum. Rea...

Just as if i got hit on the head with a baseball bat, we would all agree i suffered a negative emotion. I think what happens next is will i say to my ...

self doubt or low self esteem. I wouldn't recommend either. Self doubt and low self esteem usually mean misery. I guess we should all just try to find...

this is the usual for you Banno. Did you see the post you made that started this whole conversation? Regards Not DL

take a look at what that guy who i was responding too ends every post he posts with. Note the bottom of all of his posts. Your kind of jumping in on t...

i think the same of you Banno.

oh ok.

I disagree. I'm done talking to you or atleast responding to your original posts/forum topics. This is the case for various reasons. Have a great week...

can you rephrase that sentence. Like i said me and you have different ideas of right or wrong. In my opinion i have the moral high ground. Perhaps i'm...

I don't understand the alliteration.

True Christians typically get their OPs taken down quickly on this forum and any secular forum. If you would like to have discussion in private that w...

Most religions aren't like Christianity and the other religions are far worse than Christianity. Actually see as how communism and atheism is more pre...

Actually Europe had a pseudo-theocracy at that time in history. Feel free to educate yourself on the people's lack of say during the middle ages, rena...

I very much agree with what you are getting at. Some people have to watch what they eat to stay thin so you could say the are putting some effort into...

The problem i have with this is it points to that we should accept post-modernism. I would argue if some one's awakening doesnt fully embrace practica...

I couldn't paste the picture for some reason but google or bing The Death Toll of Communism. Communism/Atheism has killed far more than religion in al...

Probably not many. Not all of the Christian church participated in the Inquisition. Are you aware of all the killing done by Atheist/Socialist rulers?

The inquisitions were done by the Roman Catholic Church. There was also the Orthodox church and later on the various Protestant churches. We also shou...

true.

i disagree. Why do you always post videos to back up what you say instead of articles? Do you have an article to back up your claim. I've never heard ...

ok.

ok
