I'm not sure whether this is such a bad thing. True, many people voice their opinions a bit too strongly on social media. Yet it does encourage the re...
So I assume we're both familiar with 'The God Delusion' from Richard Dawkins. I haven't read the book but I've watched the documentary. To me the poin...
Perhaps it's better if you post 20 messages first and then contact me. There are a lot of catphishes on the internet and I want to know who I'm dealin...

Okay. So fairies aren't real, you say. But if someone were to experience a fairy, doesn't it make it real to them? Imagine your child has had a very v...
Yeah same here. Although I don't think it's a simulation. It doesn't solve any scientific questions. It only creates problems. Because who created the...

Well, as it happens I'm also a chess player. As a chess player you are taught not to go for beauty but for logic. Going logically from A to B in chess...
