Sunday School 6 years, 12 months agoIvy, over the last few debates (The god of belief vs the God of the argument in particular) you have demanded explanations from us because you disagree with the premise of the argument and any conclusion drawn from it. That is fine until you start callieng our argument illogical without offering reasonable counter arguments. You call our a…[Read more]

We will peak at about 9 billion and then rapidly decline from there…

Yes. As long as these big corp plastic producers are making money, the revolution of plastic will an ever slow one. The article I posted was from 2016. The amount of progressive change in the hemp/natural fiber industry could have been substantial (and I’m sure they’ve made SOME progress) However, as long as consumers keep…[Read more]

Atheism and Spirituality 7 years agoSame Harris may be the type of person that needs to be reminded to live in the now, but I know a lot of people whose lives would likely benefit if they did at least some planning for the future.
Exactly. Now I am all for the idea that we shouldn’t worry ourselves to death about things that haven’t happened yet….But at the exact same tim…[Read more]

Sunday School 7 years agoWell said and so very true. But why is it like that?
Because we’re stupid. And I don’t trust anybody anymore. Haven’t you noticed? Our country is in a 21st-century Civil War

Belle Rose replied to the topic You won't find God in the dictionary. in the forum Atheism 7 years ago
I agree. I don’t know. I am totally agnostic about gods and I am a practical atheist concerning all particular and specific god beliefs. Based on what you said perhaps you are not so different?
I think I’m probably really different LOL… I go to church on Sunday. I use the Bible as a teaching tool for my son, and the church as a place to so…[Read more]

You are not gonna help survival or anything with that proclamation. I can’t imagine money gifts for a preacher or votes for a politician who said that. Nor would that work for weddings or funerals. No, that is not a useful concept at all.
Since when does a claim have to be “useful” to be accurate? Can you honestly tell me that…

@Robert oh yeah that makes sense! I’ve told this joke to a lot of people and most of them have laughed. The one group of people who I don’t think completely got it was a group of police officers at the restaurant I work at lol. That or they were too manly to laugh at a joke like that lol

Sunday School 7 years, 2 months agoBeauty is more than skin deep. It is a moral matter.
Why is the “good” beautiful?
Moreover, while the good is, or should be, desirable for its own sake, the beautiful is desirable because it’s pleasurable.
Because it’s pleasurable to be around and observe. I remember that @robert asked once if it’s possible to fall in love online: I believe I’…[Read more]

PopeBeanie replied to the topic Two vs Multi Party Politics in the forum Politics 7 years, 2 months ago
@Robert, it would be just as meaningful, impactful, and personal if you just wrote an emotionalized retort like “You just hate America, don’t you?!”.
I am reminded of Bush’s cliche “just stay the course” during one of our most horrific mistakes of foreign policy by war ever made. As if American self-examination was an evil.
Perhaps you are…[Read more]

Simon Paynton replied to the topic Jordan Peterson definition of God in the forum Theism 7 years, 3 months ago
His message seems to be “sort yourself out”, and I think that’s a good thing. I don’t see him as the nemsis of feminism, but he is most definitely the nemesis of the silly narcissistic hard left, which is why they hate him so much. He’s just as much against the hard right, and their toxicity, as you say @Robert.
I think he seems to have his o…[Read more]

@Robert – I thought it was OK. I might watch it again sometime. Having watched the original several times over the years I was not expecting too much. One movie I watched recently was Annihilation which I thought was very good though I know plenty of people that did not like it one bit. I think a basic understanding of the multi-universe with…[Read more]
