    Religion and Atheism

    If you tell a 3 year-old that he is stupid, or a man that he is a woman, this might also provoke a hostile denial. Do you purposely try to provoke and enrage Atheists by telling them that their specific position, is just another religion because it is theist-specific? If Atheism is a religion...

    Religion and Atheism

    "Jesus loves me, this I know, 'cause the Bible tells me so..". Is this how I should KNOW for certain, that God loves me and exists? Citing written hearsay translations, from any foreign book of narratives, prose-discourse, or poetry, has as much divine significance as the satirical comic genius...

    Religion and Atheism

    As I have stated before, it is simply frustrating, and annoying to have an honest conversation with someone with an obvious hidden agenda. You even deny your own quotes by saying they are "distorted". "No, the evidence is the evidence(#391)". How is this distorted, or even taken out of context...

    Religion and Atheism

    It is very frustrating to maintain an honest and rational discourse, with someone that is incapable of admitting when they are wrong. Even when the evidence of their own words are shown to them. It is also frustrating to ask very simple and direct questions, and receive denials, clever...

    Religion and Atheism

    I see you've started back again proselytising for your faith, by cut, copying, and pasting prompt-specific quotes, from your man-made books of quotes and personal revelations. Once the quote-mining begins the argument has already been lost. These quotes have no relevance in science, and cannot...

    Religion and Atheism

    Let me start with your last comments first. The existence or NON-EXISTENCE(left out) of God is not proven by any consensus, period. The red car in the driveway, or its denial, are very poor analogies to infer that a God exists. Comparing a physical anything, when evidence can easily be found to...

    Religion and Atheism

    I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that you are not from around here. There are so many syntactic errors, dangling participles, extra prepositions, incoherent fragments, missing conjunctions and articles, and no clearly defined cohesive thought. It is just rambling gibberish. I suggest...

    Religion and Atheism

    So am I to assume that whenever you make a truth/fact claim, that there may be caveats and other hidden stipulations that will be revealed to us later? This seems like a confusing and intellectually dishonest method for honest discourse. Stating that we can't prove that God exists, because God...

    Religion and Atheism

    As Steven Weinberg stated, "Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.". My close friend Matt Dillahunty explained it best why he became...

    Religion and Atheism

    If being immaterial was not the only reason we can't prove God(s) exists, then you should not have claimed that it is. What are the other reasons we can't prove that God(s), exists? Also, unless you are a God yourself, you have no idea what is in the mind of a God. You have no idea what He...

    Religion and Atheism

    Wave energy, Dark energy, and Potential energy are all immaterial. Yet we can clearly demonstrate their existence, directly, indirectly, and objectively. Also, these energies can be easily falsified. So being immaterial is no excuse to finding evidence to confirm God's existence. If a God had...

    Religion and Atheism

    My opinions are based on facts, data, evidence, reason, and logic. They are not based on religious/philosophical opinions. I asked you why the need to conflate A-theism with Religion/Theism? My motives and desires are totally irrelevant, on any planes of existence. You are certainly entitled to...

    Religion and Atheism

    I call this, "One of these things is not like the other....". What deities do Atheist's worship? What literature do atheists consider as divine? What is the religious hierarchy of Atheism? Where do atheists go to worship? What are the precepts and tenets of Atheism? As asked by another poster...

    Religion and Atheism

    Why is it that believers need to conflate 'a'-theism with theism? Or, to conflate belief in God with non-belief in God? By this logic no one can disbelieve in anything, since the act of disbelieving is itself a belief. Who benefits from this twisted, self-affirming, and obtuse form of logic? If...

    Religious Conservatives lead nation in online Porn viewing

    Did you know that the early internet almost failed, but was saved only by using porn to incite interest? I personally think that porn should be watched only by the very old, or the very sick. For the rest, porn is physically and emotionally very dangerous to how we interact within our society...

    Ancient Reality

    In politics, there are two people you never vote for. A coward, or a person who is creepy. In an argument, you never argue with a narcissist, or a child. Narcissists will argue endlessly about something they know that they don't know, and will generate whatever semantics is necessary to avoid...

    Ancient Reality

    Thank you. Not wasting any more of my time trying to rationalize with anymore "attention junkies". They are worse than "depression junkies", or "adrenaline junkies". They will just drain you emotionally, no matter how much evidence and rational explanations you provide. This road would...

    Cladking "Reality is digital; either it exists or it does not". They are neither, since we have not decided if quantum particles are real enough to encode information at all. Are the particle's discreteness(digital) in reality simply the Fourier transform of compactness? Or is the Quantum...

    Ancient Reality

    Cladking Every time you open your mouth, you prove my points. I actually read the words you put in the sentences that sound meaningful, but have no real connection or relationship with each other. You use the language as a tool to create a perception of truth, by making incoherent statements...

    Ancient Reality

    Cladking I really thought the direction of your nonsense might have improved by now. Especially since your statements that, Beavers were self-consciously aware that by using their Beaver science to invent dams, they could create their own habitat. And then to double-down by claiming that all...
