    What are the 10 Commandments?

    Moses was high on Mount Sinai when god supposedly spoke to him. Yes, he was stoned when he set the Ten Commandments in stone. He was under the influence of DMT or the hallucinogenic ayahuasca, or other plants that are found in the region of Mount Sinai. Moses was probably also on mind-altering...

    "Religious People Distrust Atheists as Much as Rapists"

    I distrust and fear evangelical and conservative Christians, and view them as a threat to my freedom.

    Will Atheism Ever Be The Dominant Religion?

    For some strange reason, many people keep getting the idea that atheism is itself some sort of religion. Atheism is a disbelief, not a philosophy. Maybe it is because these people are so caught up in their own religious beliefs that they cannot imagine any person living without religion of some...

    Does Anyone Think That Joe Biden Might Be The Next Politician Accursed Of Sexual Misconduct

    Why bother starting such a stupid thread like this, unless you want reactions that lead to arguments, not debates, arguments!! Fairly obvious IMO

    Revelation

    The chief symbol of your religion is the cross, which was a form of execution for the Romans for enemies of the state. The cross was not a symbol of the religion until the reign of Emperor Constantine, who made Christianity the state religion of the Roman Empire. I see Christians wearing the...

    Revelation

    From my perspective, Christianity is nothing more than a fatalistic Death Cult that has predicted the mass liquidation of all earthly species in 365 CE. Produced a continuous supply of luminaries who’ve longed for nothing short of the total and complete annihilation of our home world...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    Wrong, energy is matter. Your not understanding it right.

    Trump Admits He DID Give Highly Classified Info to the Russians

    Edward Snowden leaked a massive trove of classified U.S. information to British and American journalists. Trump refereed to the former NSA contractor as a “traitor.” Trump made his demands explicit: Snowden should be executed if he returns to the United States because he had, according to...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    One equals the other when you throw in the speed of light squared. All matter also shares the wave-particle duality. and we know that matter and energy are related. There is more than one type of energy: Photon energy is material, Potential Energy is Immaterial. Heat energy, Electrical...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    I stand corrected. Physical - material and immaterial existance It's immaterial, but it has a material equivalent in matter. E=mc^2 Matter and energy can be converted. One equals the other. I'll assume you want more examples? I have to step away for a few hours, but i will get back to you.

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    Here, read this. Energy is a physical quantity that follows precise natural laws. It is an abstract mathematical quantity that turns out to be very useful to calculate because it tells you important information about the state of the system. There are many kinds of energies associated with...

    Perception and Reality

    What existed before us and our consciousness? If the concrete universe didn't exist before us, how did we and our consciousness get here? Unless you believe in God. If you accept that our existence can be explained by natural causes - that is, we emerged from the substance of the universe - than...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    Physical - Having material existence Mathematical laws play a striking role in our growing understanding of the universe or physical world. Not pertinent to my post.

    Why Trump is Constantly and Easily Misled by Fake News

    Trump has a habit of telling people he’s smart. The smartest people I’ve known never tell you how smart they are. In fact, it’s the opposite, as they’re more than willing to tell you about the things they’re ignorant of. If my criteria for identifying smart people is accurate, then it’s safe to...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    The general idea is that the nature of the actual world (i.e. the universe and everything in it) conforms to a certain condition, the condition of being physical. Many items that at first glance don't seem physical — items of a biological, or psychological, or moral, or social nature. But such...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    The PEAR lab was closed because it was considered nonsense. Their research was below the standards of rigorous science. Minds require ideas or thoughts, which are essentially representations—inner pictures, sentences, or maps of the environment external to the mind—and plants don’t have...

    What is the default position in the mind-body problem?

    The evidence for mind-body physicalism has been corroborated in laboratories and scientific field studies thousands and thousands of times… the evidence has converged from numerous different directions on the same conclusion. We never catch the human mind at work without also catching the human...

    What's Wrong with Those Russians who Attack Atheists

    Due to Russia's weak economy, analysts say that some of the drop may be attributable to increased consumption of cheap, illegal alcohol that doesn't show up in official statistics. Russians are drinking less legal alcohol as moonshine sales spike Russia, alcohol and death. Russia is quite...

    What's Wrong with Those Russians who Attack Atheists

    Russians are hopeless primitives, and religion is very popularized there over the last two decades. Its a country owned by mafia and criminal tycoons, and is inhabited by drunken barbarians. Suppressing every attempt for free thinking, and investing most of their money in arming itself while...
