Whether God exists or not isn't a fact but rather an opinion. Consider this: believing in God takes two steps, not one. One, you need to believe that something out there is worthy of Godhood and divinity. Two, you need to believe that whatever is worthy of that actually exists. I've heard...
I've got both a premium membership and an adblocker, so the chance of me seeing an ad is zilch to none. Once in awhile an ad will pop up but my adblocker will zap it away before I can really get a good look at it. As long as RF continues to exist I couldn't care less about the ads honestly. The...
Nope. I don't put anyone on ignore and as far as I know, nobody has me on ignore. I don't think I can offend anyone on my positions, but I have been slightly offended by certain people who hold no agency to human evolution. Yet still, I'd rather be offended than put them on an ignore list. In...
God is reality. Existing is how I know God exists. Everything we do is in some way is a part of God. I am a trinitarian pantheist and believe that there are three parts: being - The Omniverse, and action - or entropy and extropy, and these three things constitute all change, which itself is God...
I was chatting with Chat GPT today.
I asked it several questions about theology. First, I posed it the question: "what religions believe we are creating God?" It didn't list religions but rather the theologies posed in the ideas of panentheism and the cumulative concept known has process...
I prefer to shave every few days or so. I use a Harry's normal shaver on the center then on the sides I trim it up with an electric trimmer. I look really bad with any amount of facial hair. My facial hair resembles my pubic hair. Not good!
It wasn't a problem, it was an observation. And yes, I know, that if you change the wording even a little, you can create a new religion from that. Like Charles the God-Spider rather than Collud the God-Spider. But it just seems that every possible concept of religion is already taken if you...
Theism is an excuse for immoral behavior sometimes, but people can have many different excuses to be immoral. I'm immoral when I'm off medications, and when I'm off my meds, I take a strong turn towards atheism. Either way it's a false correlation.
I agree and concur with my fellow RF posters. Jesus did not raise from the dead. However, that does not mean he wasn't special and unique in many ways. He may be the prime example of ancient human extropy and he raised a religion with over two billion people strong now. That to me means more...
James Bond Box
I bought a box for $31 on E-Bay. Yes, just a box. I already had all the James Bond movies but I was without the box all of them come in. Shipping alone for the box was over $10. The original boxset includes all 4 ultimate edition box sets (20 James Bond movies - from Dr. No to...
I consider my a pacifist, but only to other humans.
I'm an omnivore and play violent video games. I try not to harm anyone though, including myself. Some people take this position to an extreme, like Jains, but I'm just anti-abortion, anti-death penalty and I don't, and would never, own a gun...
Gladly!
Divinity is divided into two: The Omniverse, which is all, and human beings, which control extropy on Earth. The Omniverse possesses an unlimited amount of five divine attributes: totality, essentiality, eternity, ubiquity and potency. Humans possess possibility an unlimited amount of...
The only country I would even really considered moving into would be Canada to be close to my best friend.
But if I have to choose five, the other four would be: Norway, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. I've only thought about the first three however.
