Sunday School 4 years agoThanks, Reg!!
I have a little gem for you from a Quorean (Jon Jermy) responding to a question on how atheists feel about whether their consciousness continues after their death.
“
My ‘consciousness’ is not an object, or a type of person. It’s a process — specifically the combination of certain physical processes going on in my brain and the r…[Read more]

Sunday School 4 years agoI watched some exorcism flick and the priest screamed blessings at the jets of water he was pumping from a kids water cannon – which seemed to do the trick. I think more priests should adopt this delivery method.

Hey, what about me. Did I make my case badly? LOLI think most here know you present your cases pretty well.
Garland says he’s watching the hearings. I can’t yet see what kind of prosecution could ramp up or succeed once the GOP gains full power in Congress. Sorry to dodge the specific question but my biggest concern is how to…[Read more]

Nice lazy, incoherent dig at “Socialism”.
Yeah that really was a groan inducing “dig” at “socialism”. Take something that in general immensely benefits people and highly reduces pointless suffering in countries where these programs are not controversial and generally supported, find a few examples where things don’t work perfectly (or even nee…[Read more]

They were helpless because they were compelled by law to attend a school that was a “Gun-Free Zone,” where there was not even an armed security guard present

Yeah, it was long, and painful, plus add another half hour for researching where these guys are coming from. I felt the need to look further because of a few red flags, phrases (my paraphrases) like “they kicked us off because we told the truth”, “a conspiracy theory is just a spoiler [for a future truth]”, and then berating (the left, of course)…[Read more]

Sunday School 4 years agoI love studies on how unique our brains are in the animal kingdom. Meanwhile, the much larger influence on our successes (and failures) as a species is how we developed culture so rapidly over tens of thousands of years, in much less time than it took the most notable biological changes.
