    Does anyone have a convincing argument for the existence of a non material reality?

    Nice try, but ;) You're leaving out an important part of that. E = mc^2 is a simplification for an object with mass that is not moving. Einstein's entire equation is E^2 = P^2c^2 + m^2c^4. Since the P = 0 in the case of an object at rest, then that simplifies to E = mc^2. For a photon, energy...

    Is the N Word Dehumanizing?

    So the Russian bots have infiltrated RF and have begun posting threads, I see.

    We Need Another Party and This Man Should Head It.

    I am reminded of a Voltaire quote, from experience, I think political parties could be said to be similar in this regard: "If one religion only were allowed in England, the Government would very possibly become arbitrary; if there were but two, the people would cut one another's throats; but as...

    Does your religion suffer from this problem?

    One time I was browsing 4chan and then through following a bunch of links ended up becoming a fan of the Mongolian hip hop scene. The internet's weird like that, one moment you're discussing D&D, the next moment after only three links or so you're watching Ethnic Zorigoo's latest crossover with...

    Does your religion suffer from this problem?

    Why would you think that would be the case?? I mean you are posting on religiousforums and not a specifically Jewish forum, so I think you can understand why a person might be interested in religions other than their own. Is that assumption wrong?? So clearly there are people out there...

    Does your religion suffer from this problem?

    Nah, not comments like those. Those comments seem comparatively nice (though I don't understand all of them language wise). Looking at a few random music videos of ours, it doesn't seem like we get any Christian commentators at all. We just get people parroting Iranian-state propaganda...

    Does anyone have a convincing argument for the existence of a non material reality?

    Energy isn't matter. We can prove energy exists. Ergo non material reality.

    Are Age Restrictions for Buying and Possessing Guns Constitutional?

    So, the point of referencing McDonald v Chicago was that the case was centered around the idea that State Law can't supersede the Federal (see also Pennsylvania v. Nelson). The States aren't prohibited from all ability to regulate guns because (as the Supreme Court understands it) the Federal...

    Are Age Restrictions for Buying and Possessing Guns Constitutional?

    Yeah, that's not how that works. See McDonald v. City of Chicago, the States are bound by the federal constitution, and the Tenth doesn't overrule the rights therein. So Missouri can't establish a theocracy, Florida can't find people guilty of state-level crimes without a trial, and Wisconsin...

    Are Age Restrictions for Buying and Possessing Guns Constitutional?

    Well, the big difference would be no constitutional amendment guaranteeing the right to alcohol. So would you say a state government could raise the age required to protest or write an news article to 21?? If the right to vote is the only right in your view that can't be age restricted, can...

    Are Age Restrictions for Buying and Possessing Guns Constitutional?

    If it's a matter of constitutional rights, do any other rights work that way?? Could the government force everyone to be Catholic until the age of 21?? Deny due process for those under 21?? If it's a right, it's a right. If you want to argue that it's not a right, that's another issue, but if...

    Homeowners Associations - the new fascism?

    Usually agreeing to join is a condition of purchase, from what I understand. Different from any other voluntary association, though?? Errr, that's not strictly true. For example if you sign a NDA, you can't use "free speech" as an excuse to speak outside the terms of that NDA. And you...

    Is there Anything Wrong with Cherry-Picking Ideas from Multiple Religions?

    As long as you cherry-picked the idea that there can be truth in multiple religions and didn't cherry-pick the "one true faith" idea from anyone. :p

    New rule

    It was not. The post that stated against you was made in May. You did not read your own "source". Your professor should have taught you that your "example" confirmed nothing in truth. Because that's not how evidence works. Hey, you know what's not in any of these?? 4,200. Okay, I get it...

    Homeowners Associations - the new fascism?

    Well, people generally agree to be part of the HOA. I guess it would depend on whether or not you can freely leave the HOA and terminate your contract with them. If that's allowed (they stop bothering you, you stop paying them, they stop mowing the lawn and letting you use their services) that...

    PLEASE. I just want a source on that claim!! A good source, not this quora crap!! Your Quora Link says this. https://www.quora.com/Which-if-any-of-the-4-200-gods-proposed-by-men-throughout-history-are-true-How-do-you-know "Krister Sundelin Answered Mar 23: "it’s 4,200 current religions, of...

    Number one solution to obesity problem

    All my posts used Walmart standard pricing. I did this anticipating your inevitable claim that you couldn't find it at the same price. :p So you have an answer now, go shop at Walmart and you'll get it for the price I quoted. Plus, there's the fact that if your grocery has to up-charge those...

    :D I did. You "disproving" my claim, which you have indeed done, proves that quora.com questions are not sufficient evidence. Because if they were, then there'd be only seven historical gods, because quora.com says so. So I disproved your entire source by making you disprove my own claim...

    Yeah, my assertion of there being seven gods is "Total bulpoop [sic]". That was the point but apparently you were somehow incapable of realizing that I was making that absurd claim on purpose. I made the absurd claim and as "proof" linked to a posted question on quora.com. Which is the exact...

    The link doesn't go to any statistic. It's not census or survey data. It's just some random person's internet post. It means nothing. If you want to play that game... well I have a Quora account too so... Ahem: You are wrong. There were only seven gods that mankind has worshiped throughout...
