thats fair. But i should add, there are 100s of possibilities of how life could end in 10 years or 1 million years. Life on this planet could be argue...

thanks i'll look at it later. I think you would be surprised what modern A.I. is capable of. Do a search on google or bing for what "data mining" is. ...

as time goes on and technology improves, new notions used in these new technologies are produced from combining old notions. Einsteins special and gen...

i'll have to re look up what empirical means but that seems to make sense to me.

A calculator is based off of human and actual logic. If humans can't come up with facts that are rational then neither can a calculator or computer. A...

lol. You'll find out you are wrong someday. Next time leave the emotion out of your argument you fool. If you didn't think my argument had some validi...

1 and 0 are hard to define without saying. "i am one person" or there are 0 apples at my kitchen table.

logic is entirely based on definitions and drawing 1 dimension, 2 dimensional, 3 dimensional, 4 dimensional and any higher dimensional relationships b...

its certainly possible i guess.

i agree it is an odd concept.

thats fair.
May 18, 2019 at 23:03
i was referring to the book Sapiens. I agree with just about everything you said. The book "Sapiens" does not.
May 18, 2019 at 09:35
In my opinion i do believe its possible for Jesus Christ to live 33 years without sinning. On a different note we only see 3 years of Jesus Christ's l...

interesting. I knew a guy working on a miniature blimp (as opposed to a full sized blimp) and one of the things he discovered is that when you shrink ...

I doubt it. As for the water thing that was verbally told to me. I don't have any evidence at this point and i may never have evidence for that.

that would be hard to prove. The initial self replicating "creature" or cell is a mystery to scientists. Some say cells or single cells are what forme...

if self replication occurs (assuming no god like entity) and it stops then it stops for x amount of time into the future. How a scientist would prove ...

I don't know if it is possible to explain with words but can you explain the model referred in "There is an even more basic method of reproduction". O...

When you say nuclear, what do you mean by that? My understanding of nuclear is that all cells consist of nuclear elements (most matter in addition to ...
May 15, 2019 at 09:43
I can't argue with that considering i'm not exactly a scientist.
May 15, 2019 at 09:41
I understand why larger creatures are driven towards sex and reproduction. However reproduction requires structures with in the cell or virus that mak...

How complex can a self replicating component within a virus or cell be if initially it is formed by accident?
May 15, 2019 at 00:08
not sure what that means. I'll have to scroll through all the posts to see what that means.
May 14, 2019 at 16:31
you said it better.
May 14, 2019 at 13:41
I agree with this completely. The Jews were fulfilling phrophecy that the savior had to be sacrificed. I always assumed you were jewish in ancestry bu...

Perhaps. But i remember reading in the book several times. I'll eventually reread it in the book if it is there.

I believe we should learn through experience. If something worked in the past thats how we should move forward in the future. What harm would it do to...
May 14, 2019 at 02:58
its hard to say. To me it seems like there needs to be a better explanation than just say pondering it is superflous.
May 14, 2019 at 02:35
yeah thats one of the things i got from the book

i agree with this. People don't like to be told they are wrong. I certainly don't like to be told i'm wrong.
