    What godless means

    I would be inclined to agree with you. There are a number of philosophical schools that aren’t exactly the most humanist now, that a lot of atheists have seemingly adopted Hell I’ve seen atheists subscribe to various conspiracy theories even. Some more….interesting than others, let’s just put...

    What godless means

    I will admit that perhaps my judgement has some bias to it, as it is based on my experiences with various atheists over the years online Years ago, I would watch a movement of atheists who broadly challenged the then rather prominent creationist arguments surfacing in public (mostly American...

    Jordan Peterson and Bill Maher...

    Hmm my mother (Hindu) always emphasised to me that “God helps those who help themselves.” I guess that teaching is more universal than I thought lol

    What godless means

    Whilst a very nice notion, ehhh I have a hard time believing that an atheist society would be ideal. Maybe better, depending on the version of atheism I suppose I would have believed that an atheist society would be better than a religious one at one time. But quite honestly I have seen just as...

    What godless means

    Actually I would say they are “grifters.” It’s become something of an internet slang term for folks who espouse messages (often religious in nature but not necessarily) to a crowd for their own benefit. Typically one that is monetary in nature. But power is also a motivator Like I said, English...

    What godless means

    I suspect that’s a large part of the response to your OP. When I read it all I could think was, umm no, that’s nihilism and hedonism. In English that makes more sense because English is very intense as a language and it can be very specific. So casually redefining words is confusing and not...

    Local festivals? Your favourite?

    So in a couple of days there will be an annual agriculture festival near where I live. We call it “Ekka” and it goes for a few days. There’s food, rides, “showbags” (like bags of goodies you can buy that has themes) and of course farm animals so children can interact and learn about the farming...

    Cancel culture and the politics of offense

    So called “cancel culture” is really just the new generation’s version of boycotting. I can agree that there should absolutely be limits, that people to a certain extent should take responsibility for their own mental health and excuse themselves if they feel upset by something. Too often I see...

    What exactly makes someone a TERF?

    Sorry I had quite a few notifications to sort through lol I mean if that is your position, fine But what are your qualifications pertaining to this subject? Specifically? I’ll freely admit that I’m a layman. So I rely on the experts in the field. Gender dysphoria is a known psychological...

    Republican candidates?

    I mean, I can only respond to what I see. But I’ll take your word for it, since you were apparently there I have no real horse in this race

    Republican candidates?

    Do you think Disney will beat him in the lawsuits? I feel like Disney is such a giant conglomerate that they will crush him for fun. But again I don’t know how the US system works. It just seems like suicide to take on Disney for literally any reason under the sun lol

    Republican candidates?

    Okay Impeachment is like??? Sorry I have a vague idea of what it is, but I’m not entirely sure what it actually means (I don’t think.) It’s like accusing someone of criminal misconduct, right?

    Republican candidates?

    Forgive me, but I thought he was already being impeached? So if the actual house senate(?) voted to impeach him that would have disqualified him? But not the legal proceedings? I apologise but I am probably more confused than when I started lol Is this just a “loophole” kind of deal, relying on...

    Republican candidates?

    I was talking about his infamous “there were good people on both sides” speech, regarding the was it the Charlottesville riots? I think that was the case. Yeah there were literal neo Nazis marching. Not only did I see that on the international news coverage but on literal live-streaming first...

    Republican candidates?

    Fair enough Biden seems like just a dumb grandpa, if I’m honest lol Tump has bad scandal after bad scandal. I’m sorry, but that’s just how it seemingly is. The infamous “Nazis are good people” scandal, the Jan 6 crap (I saw the actual real live footage from folks attending that, so don’t think...

    Republican candidates?

    You know we don’t really get CNN here!? Well okay, online/YouTube/streaming but like it’s not a recognisable reliable news source for the average TV viewer here.
