Politics 1 year, 5 months agoI am posting this as a jpeg because I cannot gain access to the site to copy it. It is behind a paywall. I buy the paper every Saturday (The Irish Times). Let me know if you agree with this Irish economist. I would agree strongly with the points he makes.
Clicking on the picture should increase the size and make it legible.

If Yahweh is three persons, I can beat that. I’m nine persons and I don’t need mathematics to prove it. I’m a son, a brother, a father, a grandfather, and a great grandfather. I’m also an ex-husband, an uncle, and a grand uncle. I’m also a self.
An omnipotent and omniscient being would know how to prove himself without resorting to revealing…[Read more]

If Man is five, if Man is five
If Man is five, then the Devil is six
Then the Devil is six, then the Devil is six
The Devil is six, and if the Devil is six
Then God is seven! Then God is seven!
Then God is seven!This monkey’s gone to heaven.

Artificial Intelligence 1 year, 5 months agoTime will tell if AI can “be happy”. Right now, I would say that is only in the realm of biologics as the brain releases hormones. We are electro-chemical machines. Sure, it can be simulated in silicon and maybe even fool us.
