    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    No one is compelling you to communicate with me. If you are unwilling or unable to lay out direct statements and then hold your self accountable for defending those statements to the rest of us, then just block me. And keep blathering.

    On Evolution & Creation

    Your faith is no different from any random claim of any random guy in any random bar. It means a lot to you, but there is no reason for the rest of us to take your faith seriously.

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    You didn't say anything in those two paragraph. Just a bunch of innuendo, implications with no foundations,and pronouns with no reference to originating nouns. Seems to me that you are just trying to goad people without commiting your self to saying anything of substance.

    Rediscoveries of the Milky Way

    My thoughts are that you are trying to get views on your video.

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    Hell, you don't have to go back to the 1800s. Women didn't gain the right to get credit in their own names until 1974 in the US. Marital rape was not criminalized until 1976. And in 20 freaking 19, I had to pose as the partner of a 30 year old friend so that the doctor would pay attention to get...

    Thy Kingdom Come, Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

    **** I am happy to discuss your claims and whether or not you are capable of knowing what your claim to know, any time you find yourself able to do more than make bald assertions and rise above copy/pasted quotes. It is you, @TransmutingSoul who fusses when I don't accept one of your...

    Yes. You are just an ordinary human with an ordinary relative narrow view.

    The Rise of Monotheism: How Did One God Become the Norm?

    Two of the monotheistic religions built empires, conquered most of the world and subjugated the inhabitants of said nations. Both religions went thru aggressive and prolonged periods where a person's value was only recognized in relation to how that person served and submitted to the religious...

    Young women leaving religion more than young men.

    I think @danieldemol has a good answer, but I think it is good that women are leaving churches because that is traditionally the method by which Christianity is forced to progress out of its moral turpitudes. The threat of a loss of money, influence, and social relevance is a repeatedly...

    Why do people believe what they believe?

    How much digging? As much digging as it take to unearth tubers? Copper? Iron? Aluminum? Earthworms?

    How can you tell if a Prophet is true?

    The end of the Gospel of Mark in the oldest existing copies of the text is: Mark 16: 8 "Trembling and bewildered, the women went out and fled from the tomb. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid." Don't be another Marcion

    Thy Kingdom Come, Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

    This is the part where you distract from being called out on your hollow denials, and the lack of considered or cogent content in your claims by attempting ridicule. Clever, incisive and devastating ridicule, no doubt. The average high school graduate possesses a greater knowledge than the...

    Sex and Catholicism

    Generally speaking what people do, reflects their actual values. Whether they have a religion or not.

    I agree. I think if he had been born 25 years later, he would have had the cultural and mental tools to make a more successful transition

    Why do people believe what they believe?

    What you are saying is entirely fair, and I am certainly no philosopher either. I just asked chatgpt "Didn't Nietzsche generate meaning via Übermensch and Eternal Recurrence ". Yes, I slanted it. :) The direct response... It then did a breakdown, then provided a summary. I think that my...

    Why do people believe what they believe?

    Nihilism does not say that our lives have no meaning, but that they have no inherent meaning. An important distinction. Like nihilism, one of the basic principles in existential philosophy is that the universe is completely indifferent to you. There is no inherent or objective meaning or...

    I don't see any authorities on the matter at all. And @Spice, this "boat" is a Wendy's.
