  • Unseen, if you can transfer your consciousness onto a disc or into a Frankenstein or Adonis for that matter will you do it?

    Yes Reg, that is Seward’s folly. Lets see, that say that most of us will continue to make the same stupid mistakes.

    Why is God a Dog when spelled backwards?

    It can’t be an accident. There is design in all things. Is it because dogs are ascendant and humans are sinful and fallen? How dare we claim to be made in the image of god. Dogs were made in that image. REPENT!

    And be kind to our canine friends because when the rapture plays and the dog has its way the…[Read more]

    Simon i will grant you that sustain is ambiguous. Strictly speaking though it is survival needs only that we and other animals require to be sustained. If you are using the word more broadly, something like your now infamous thriving, then you are being contentious, tendentious and presumptuous.

    The question you asked has an inescapable…[Read more]

    Johan, the prophecy guy goes by Michael. Or sumpin like that.

    The lesson i learned is that it is absolutely impossible to reason with an individual who is either medically or functionally delusional. In matters not involving the delusion the individual may speak intelligently and or be amenable to reason and persuasion. However in matters…[Read more]

    Simon how is it a legitimate question when it assumes a fact not in evidence. Religion sustains us is hardly an established fact. In fact it is a great weight on so many whose lives are irreparably damaged and diminished. Many apostates report a great sense of freedom once the sword of religion is withdrawn.

    Furthermore as i intended to…[Read more]

    Simon, that is not a legit question. What sustains you as an alternative to seeking out the suicidal and encouraging those people to end it? What sustains you as an alternative to creating a mythology to ensnare the vulnerable and exploiting those unfortunates? What sustains you as an alternative to finding quick sand and seeing if you can drown yourself?

    Johan it is just jabberwocky talky..i am a junk talking junky

  • jakelafort replied to the topic Godly Being in the forum Theism 6 years, 2 months ago

    Okay, you guys keep reasoning with Johan. I learned my lesson with the prophecy guy.

    Buena fortuna, Johan.

    Oh hey Jody Lee, my rambling scrambling words will set you free.

    having been burned

    it is a lesson learned

    don’t trust churches, men or priests….look to animals, kids and beasts

    It is my opinion that Johan is delusional. I don’t mean he has strongly held beliefs alone. That is evident. If his text is sincere he exhibits complete immersion and obsession and personal involvement in the mythology. Those factors distinguish his belief from other pious believers.

    Johan, i suggest you see a physician. If there is some part of…[Read more]

    Johann, here is a little heads-up. Reg is using sarcasm in affirming your humility. I note you and your godly intelligence missed out on why the passage from Dracula. I am here to help!

  • Toldya i was sick.

  • Delusion v Belief

    They are functionally similar.

    However a delusion is borne of a medical condition inartfully expressed as mental illness. I say that because the cause is physical but the manifestation is both physical and mental.
    Beliefs are often the product of indoctrination. Eventually neuroscience will pinpoint the biological pathways of…[Read more]

    • I agree that we’ll find neurological causes of delusions and call them “medical conditions”, which will likely help us understand delusions. I like to consider “mental dysfunctions” (which, yes, is another human-constructed term) as being side effects of rapid human evolution. Just for example wrt delusions, perhaps there are…

      • (I should have read the article first… alongside neuro-anatomical evolution of creativity was, again imo, neuro-anatomical evolution of social neurocircuitry and behaviors. The rapid evolution of these and other brain-origin proclivities had to have evolved too quickly to be genetically honed to faultlessness. So we mostly see huge…

    That was good Reg.

  • jakelafort replied to the topic Godly Being in the forum Theism 6 years, 2 months ago

    Johan, do you understand how worthless your defense is? Did Reg get through to you?

  • jakelafort replied to the topic Godly Being in the forum Theism 6 years, 2 months ago

    Simon, i don’t think your thrive jive is completely off-base but it strikes me as somewhat idiosyncratic.

  • jakelafort replied to the topic Godly Being in the forum Theism 6 years, 2 months ago

    Who doesn’t?

    Lets see? Masochists, flagellants, nuns, various monks…
    Now if you point out that one woman’s revulsion is another man’s thriving then what differentiates one life from another in terms of doing well?

    Why do whales beach themselves?

    If i seem to be pushing against thriving it is not really the case. I don’t have a strong opinion.
