    Why Does My Heart Understand The Cosmos Better Than My Head?

    You're talking romance. It seems a lot of your perspectives on life are romantic.

    Why Scientists Mostly Reject Spirituality

    Spirituality doesn't always have to come from 'god' it can come in other ways. Science is not only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality. When we recognise our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty...

    "Final budget result delivers $15.8 billion 'back-to-back' surplus due to lower spending"

    Yeah, I think they’re doing okay. Tough times with curbing inflation and the world economy. I think they are offering as much support to people as they can

    Peter Dutton wants to curb the rollout of wind and solar at cost of $70 billion

    Yes agree, we can’t get of the renewable train now and I don’t we should, full steam ahead. (No wait, this is a an electric train )

    What do we really ‘know’

    Who, Donald Trump?

    Where should the "I don't know" go?

    Maybe the definition of god is relevant? Each question could be a reasonable starting point, it depends on the audience. And all questions staring points are the same but with a different end point. That being, there is a spectrum of possibilities from the starting point of ‘I don’t know’ to...

    What do we really ‘know’

    Everything we know is borrowed or comes from from somewhere, from our genes to the environment we live in. And some have better genes and environments than others. It’s part of natural selection or evolution. The intricate journey of life. And so what, does it really matter if we gained our...

    Subservience? (Religion)

    No, no I don’t it’s a bad thing, just trying to understand what Paganism is. If I was to practice something, it might be paganism. I like the idea of looking after nature. And it certainly seems not to harbour some of those weird social thoughts like ‘right’ Christianity. And I thought you had...

    Subservience? (Religion)

    Are you saying 'what will be, will be'? Or its already decided for you? Or both?

    Subservience? (Religion)

    I thought the tone of the OP referred to humans, being servants to god or a higher power. And servants quite often do not have the same rights as a higher power? And we may be servants to the universe but it did create us? How come you don't worship the essential elements, for example. Or the...

    Subservience? (Religion)

    Once you call something like the sun, god, then are you creating an imbalance, a subservience as you call it, between human and the wider universe. I don't think the sun is god, however it still demands my respect for what it is, a ball of gas that's essential for life, no need for god status...

    Subservience? (Religion)

    Certainly not. You can love your god, respect it and hang with it but it should also respect you. There's a problem there, some people just get too caught up with what god wants them to do and then follow blindly. There has to be give and take. And that devout following can have negative...

    I Get Why Some People Don’t Believe A God Creates And Destroys Existence In A Cyclic Pattern

    God doesn't exist so this can't be true but each to their own. It doesn't effect me if you believe in this stuff. Unless....... .........these beliefs sway your social and political beliefs toward the 'right' side of the spectrum. Then it effects me, my family, friends and the good people of...

    What are your opinions on these topics

    No, no, I did say I was generalising and my response was targeting only a certain section of Christianity. And I know we all have individual beliefs, however you still are part of that group. Yes, I have added in my response 'men' have made these laws. I don't even think they were in the...

    What are your opinions on these topics

    Yes, it is acceptable because you don't need to be a Christian to be a good person. Or you don't need to be a Christian to have social beliefs Try it, it works just fine.

    What are your opinions on these topics

    Yeah, I was beating around the bush. To tell you the truth I think it's terrible that we have people in our society that are against LGBT, stem research, VAD, abortion, women's rights and any other non 'conservative' issue that they promote. We often talk about whether god is real or not but...

    Religious Countries - Guilt by Association

    It's no coincidence that countries that aren't bound by religious laws and rules are the happiest. It's because they have the most freedoms. Look at the top ten countries on this list. Very open and liberal laws on 'murdering babies' as you put it...

    What are your opinions on these topics

    What are your thoughts on the following social issues? I'm not asking for blame, just your thoughts? I know there complicated but general feelings. The Christian right has advanced socially conservative positions on issues such as creationism in public education,[20] school prayer,[21]...
