I remember you Astyanax .. projecting, as you always appear to do .. You come across as very dark!

Why do you struggle to understand the difference between right and wrong?

Good metaphor! .. let's continue! .. Some people have such big heads and are so totally inflexible, that they can't even get their heads deep enough in, to see what is down there.

Lol, they can still eat the rabbit droppings though (i.e. rabbit excrement; used as a metaphor for the standard set of arguments and unverified beliefs/ideas/philosophies and myths/false stories).

Proverbs 30:12

There is a generation that is pure in its own eyes

But has not been cleansed from its filth.* [Lit., “excrement.”]


Ah well, if people must, they can chase their favorite rabbit to La La Land (reference to Alice in Wonderland), as for me and Bob Marley (and others), and in Bob Marley's words as sung in the song below: "A-we no want no devil philosophy".

One Drop (1979) - Bob Marley & The Wailers (playlist, 20 videos, 19 of his best songs)

“For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the wholesome* [Or “healthful; beneficial.”] teaching, but according to their own desires, they will surround themselves with teachers to have their ears tickled.* [Or “to tell them what they want to hear.”] They will turn away from listening to the truth and give attention to false stories.” (2 Timothy 4:3,4)

“So we should no longer be children, tossed about as by waves and carried here and there by every wind of teaching by means of the trickery of men, by means of cunning in deceptive schemes.” (Ephesians 4:14)

“And stop being molded by this system of things,* [ Or “this age.”] but be transformed by making your mind over, so that you may prove to yourselves the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2)

“Look out that no one takes you captive by means of the philosophy and empty deception according to human tradition, according to the elementary things of the world and not according to Christ;” “We have much to say about him, and it is difficult to explain, because you have become dull in your hearing. For although by now* [Lit., “in view of the time.”] you should be teachers, you again need someone to teach you from the beginning the elementary things of the sacred pronouncements of God, and you have gone back to needing milk, not solid food. For everyone who continues to feed on milk is unacquainted with the word of righteousness, for he is a young child. But solid food belongs to mature people, to those who through use have their powers of discernment* [Or “their perceptive powers.”] trained to distinguish both right and wrong.” (Col 2:8; Hebrews 5:11-14) (synonyms for right and wrong are true and false, or factual/certain/correct, without error or incorrect)

“However, the inspired word clearly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to misleading inspired statements and teachings of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of men who speak lies, whose conscience is seared as with a branding iron.”(1 Timothy 4:1,2). (i.e. totally numb to feeling shame for doing that, or other beneficial feelings that one's conscience is telling them to feel, such as love for your brothers and sisters in this world, wherever they are from, or even when you see them as your enemies; as the article about war that I used says: "The emphasis on nationalism and sovereignty denies the basic concept that we all belong to the same human family, regardless of linguistic or cultural differences. And that denial leads to wars.") And this would be a good time to embed the Bob Marley song "One Love" (but since I already did that before, and since it's in the playlist, I'll forego on that one now).

I just hope people are enjoying it even though they obviously lack the expansion pack, i can't imagine playing it without i wonder if it's still a cool experience...

Glad we agree that your experience is as subjective as mine and you really have no foot to stand on when trying to make yours any more objective than others people subjective experiences.

We've past that moment where you try to stiffle the discussion by trying to deny subjective experience. You can't explain everything scientifically and you'll have to be able to have an open discoirse on topics and explanations you have doscarde for yourself.

You're just my imagination anyways, nothing you say or do exist outside my experience of it, so does reality for you.
As hard as that might be to acknowledge you are the creator of reality and all that is... think about it and explain scientifically how your subjective experience is more than that.

Exactly, you can't!

there is myriades of phenomenons you have no explanation for some are objective but we lack the understanding others are subjective and we have a pretty good understanding how they work but we can not proof them scientifically beyond a doubtful mind.
that's the only absolut truth of reality.

What you choose to belive will shape your perspective and therefore your subjective experience of an objective reality of which you have no proof beyond your subjective experience...

I don't need a god for all that to happen I'm plenty enough...

It saddens me to see how thoroughly absorbed one can be by scientific doctrines, and lack a huge part of the human experience.

Do you want to show on the doll where god touched you, because that's bordering on an unhealthy possibly traumatic obsession...

Let me ask you again because you are dancing around religious beliefs and faith and have already said your arguments are based on religious apology (good you have admitted it).

Do you know of any physical end biochemical processes that have supernatural causes? Let me help you by saying we know none in science.


Saying that 'science doesn't know' is an argument from ignorance, isn't it?



You see, science is good at describing the things science knows about, and we call the things science knows about 'natural'. It is a powerful tool, but you don't use a crowbar to spray-paint your car.

And we do have historic examples where science has been used to do other things like direct ethics, or drive politics. In one particular instance, it led to the Holocaust.

The things science does not know about, are outside of nature - they are supernatural.

Being supernatural does not mean they cannot exist or are just fantasies.

There are many things that exist and science cannot explain and many things that were once though of as supernatural, now have natural explanations and that is because of science.

However, in answer to your repeated question, one that stands out to me is that photosynthesis works, and works well. But the transfer efficiency of energy from where it is collected, to where it is utilized is somewhat of a mystery.

The various calculated outcomes (one of which, for example, is a 26% transfer efficiency) are way way lower than the observed transfer efficiencies (which are nearly 100%), and everyone is still trying to come up with explanations why. If a natural explanation is not found, then the process is supernatural (i.e: it does not fit the gamut of things with a natural explanation).

An investigation into the energy transfer efficiency of a two-pigment photosynthetic system using a macroscopic quantum model


What makes you think our universe has been created by some supernatural force? What evidence is there?


The fact that its existence has no rigorous natural explanation. Therefore the origin must be outside of what has been explained by natural phenomena. It is supernatural.


You made a statement earlier that even in your soul you going evidence. Let me remind you that you don't get to choose what evidence is.


Then neither do you. So stop denying what I hold up as evidences: the circumstantial, the subjective and even some objective evidences, such as those that exist in the non-emergent integrated structures of mathematics and physics.


Feelings and beliefs don't constitute evidence and the 'soul' is an invention used extensively by religious people. No evidence exist for the existence of the soul.


So, you are saying that you are soulless?

LOL


I think you are actually confusing spirit and soul, although I can understand the confusion of someone who is in denial about half of our existence.

Our soul is our intellectual and cognitive 'person'. It is not supernatural. To use a weak metaphor, our soul is the 'program' running on the 'computing device' of our brain.

Our spirit is the non-corporeal equivalent of our body, and is the supernatural part of us. It also embodies our soul (or its direct analogue). Think of it as a redundant back-up, stored in another, less volatile, media.


It looks you create even more problems for your arguments when you make reference to further religious concepts for which there is zero evidence they are true.


Funny, I have no problem with them?

It seems that you are the one saying there is no evidence, in denial of the evidences I claim.



You misunderstood what I asked you as usual. Tell me what physical or biochemical processes have supernatural causes given that you believe the origin of the universe has a supernatural cause.

I didn't say 'science doesn't know' but I clearly said we know there is none which has supernatural causes. You are the one who is making the arguments from ignorance attributing anything we don't know to God just like the old times.

Again you failed to give me an example. Photosynthesis doesn't have a supernatural cause (not even creationists believe it) and the origin of the universe is not some form of God despite your very flawed logic and claims that science doesn't have a definite answer on a number of areas where there is plenty of research at the moment.

You may want to give it a go at NASA and the various universities next time arguing that the current research in the origins of the universe is futile because you are other creationists have Jesus in your heart.

The fact you call matters we don't know yet or we haven't found a definitive answer as 'supernatural' shows the confusion of your arguments and the mistake people have repeated throughout history. According to you then everything unknown must be attributed to supernatural causes. Going back a few hundred years what people were calling 'supernatural' turned out not to be that way after all. Everything had a natural cause as science evolved and we had better knowledge and understanding of the world and of natural phenomena.

Beliefs and feelings don't constitute evidence and you don't get to choose what evidence is (I am repeating this). You need to look up what evidence is according to the standards of science and research.

There is no evidence for the existence of the supernatural world, God, demons and angels, like after death. That's not debatable but a fact. I am not asserting beliefs but stating facts. If you really have evidence for the claims you made then it's best if you present them so there could be under the usual scientific scrutiny and see if they pass the major checkpoints.

But as always there is nothing other than beliefs and feelings.


I feel that I, and others, have adequately and specifically answered your questions in this topic thread, but you keep denying the cogent points others make and just repeat your protective mantra as if asking the same question after an answer is offered, is some sort of intellectual win.

You can never learn unless you drop the mindset that will not countenance the answers.

I'm probably not going to give you further response, unless you perhaps ask some new and better questions.

At least deists can appreciate their relative intellectual puniness in comparison to scope and scale of their conceptions?

I was unable to locate any post of mine while skipping through it. So, it may well have been that I did not see any of your arguments in that thread?

I found the post I was referring to. It wasn’t on that thread but another. There were two posts: here’s one and here is the other. And here is a Wikipedia article about the evolution of morality.

Your questions, which are fair questions, are amply answered in the links, including the one embedded in the second of the linked posts. You may also wish to look up kin selection. This is a good (and critical) introduction.


Thanks, I'll give them a read and get back to you.

Nevertheless they called it supernatural and sure enough the scientific crusaders ridiculed those who were, although ignorant of its mechanism, convinced of its reality.

Who's the bigger fool, those who acknowledge a phenomenon even though they can't explain it or those that ignore it because they can't explain it?

If science was to proof an interdimensional intelligence that can influnce matter without manifesting itself tomorrow, we would have scientific proof of God.
what you called supernatural in an attempt to ridicule a valid opinion would become natural and your attempts would look pretty ignorant...

You know what they say about history and those who forget it...

Unfortunately you don't get to choose what evidence is.

I made it a point to say this isn't objective evidence/proof but subjective proof (on a personal level).

Why repeat what was already said?

Science is what it is. It can't explain anything beyond what has been confirmed by it.

There is no point in making an argument from ignorance about things you can't prove one way or the other.





I am not the one who is making an argument from ignorance. That goes to religionists who project God as a solution to all questions that are unanswered.

I don't reject people's personal experiences but they don't count as evidence in the way we consider it in science and research. I don't see how strange experiences have anything to do with the existence of a supernatural intelligent creator.

Out of body experiences are evidence of spirits, a spiritual realm, and the likelihood of spirits continuing to exist after the body dies.

Profound examples of reincarnation are also evidence.

But I'm not hear to argue, I'm just curious what it would mean to you if you found out that you were wrong about these things.

Would you be okay with part of yourself, let's call it a soul, continuing on after physical death?



No they are not.


Can you prove it beyond a reasonable doubt,as in you will stake your life on it?

And you know with absolute certainty that the bible was always a man made creation and not told to men to write down?
Most likely the answer wil be NO,because you are trying to prove a negative.
lack of evidence does not preclude lack of existence. Science just has not advanced far enough yet.


The burden of proof for the claims made in the Bible are on those who made them and not on me. All we know is that the Bible and all other religious books are written by humans who claim to have been inspired by God or sometimes even written by the hand of God. The Bible just like most religious books are devoid of science and philosophy and this is a very good sign they are written by men od that time.

Personal experiences are what they are. I don't contest that people can have personal experiences and sometimes strange ones. But that doesn't imply there is something paranormal to them. Personal experiences are not what we call evidence although I don't personally reject them.

This thread reminds me so much of the Origins and Creation Forum, same bunch of half wits, and dullards that star each other and try to squeeze out anyone who talks truth to them. You operate much like Hyena's circling their prey or injuns surrounding a covered wagon, whoop whoop, whoop ... difference is I have respect for hyena's and Indians.

Fact is! .. if the other half dozen or so cultists where not here, non of you would be starred at all because you all spout the same unproven mantra and present it as though they were facts.

I have a theory about the mental state of many of you here, I am sure some of you have heard this before.

Atheists and the like, are mentally challenged, simply because they are missing the most important function of their brains. We are born with two hemispheres and to operate correctly we have to maintain a coherence between them.

Left brain is the pragmatic hemisphere that deals with logic and facts. If the person doesn't receive data from the right hemisphere, they are missing their connection to their own soul and spiritual awareness.

The right hemisphere deals with intuition, creativity, inspiration, spirituality and common sense .. non of which, any of you appear to possess.

I can't be certain what has caused such a malfunction, although our education system has been geared towards academia, and has inadvertently or perhaps by design, caused many people to have atrophied right brain activity.

The globalists have produced generations of nodding donkeys, spouting data with zero understanding of the foundations behind it. I haven't experienced an ounce of independent thought or imagination from them, and nothing that one could describe as personal opinion or originality, because it is simply beyond them. You echo other peoples opinions, which is tedious to say the least.

The irony and the sadness is, that non of you are even aware that you have been damaged. It is understandable, that half brained people would be attracted to those who are equally as incapacitated and these forums are a magnet for those poor souls.

My best advice for normal people is to avoid any contact with them, and allow them to have their own safe space.

It really isn't fair and bordering on abuse, to expose them to critical thinking .. Its not their fault! .. remember that!

I believe that the noisy, tiny minorities like atheists, SHOULD be included in society with kindness, acceptance and understanding .. inclusivity is imperative in this day and age.

Have compassion and patience with them and who knows, given time and isolation they may start to think for themselves again.

All the best!




Such a shame you went to so much effort to make yourself feel good and smug about believing in myths and cheap magicians from several thousand years ago, you even tried to add a little kindergarden/infant school science about the brain!

I don't think you've noticed that this is a site were we all get to have a say or talk about a subject. I don't think in all my years here have I every told someone to shut up, yet disagree with a bible basher and straight off they tell you to shut up, that was your mightier than thou come back a few pages back, yet 9 times out of 10 these are the same people throwing Karens about their 'free speech' in other threads.

It's hilarous to watch these people who claim to have the moral high ground because they need an imaginary friend to tell them how to behave drop all that and start telling people they're mental or are damaged.
You may want to check the history books and see how many people have been murdered and killed by sheeple because 'God' wanted them to, Christians, muslims and the like, are the same blind iggnorant masses that stone people to death or hang a black person from a tree in the name of their favorite myth...

The ones who are lacking in critical thinking are the gulible who follow old wives tales and superstions because a fictional book says so. These are the same people who will allow a child to die because God said accepting blood transfusions is wrong, or push FGM onto little girls because a woman should only have sex for reproduction.
How about all the different priesthoods covering up sickening child abuse and hiding behind a religion?

I loved your last line...

Thats precisely how I feel about people who can't think for themselves and blindly follow based purely on belief and a 'magic' book with nothing else to back it up other than hearsay.

Kennyb75 on the record for saying


I have absolute knowledge of the existence of God .. but It can never be something, that someone can tell you, it is something very profound that you will find out for yourself.

I am experiencing the supernatural every day, I can't prove it to you but then why should I? I am simply stating the truth of my reality.


His knowledge is absolute and of course it has been revealed to him.

His morality is absolute and perfect! derived from
his belief in the supernatural and intelligent creator.

No need for proofs and evidence but the irony is they demand 'evidence and proof' when it comes to settled science such as evolution or star and galaxy formation.

Yeah It's typical cult-like behaviour, comments like 'it's only been revealed to me because I'm special' or 'you won't understand because you're at a lower frequnecy'. All the while they get sucked further in and drop any idea of testing or researching anything they've been told to believe and think everyone else around them are the gulible idiots.
The sad thing is, I was sort of a believer for a few years when I was in my late teens, but the contradictions and double standards of those that claim to be morally superior to everyone else was sickening and the notion that a book of stollen fairytales full of inconsistency is proof of a supernatural being is just laughable.

My relationship with God and Jesus is a personal one. I don't attend Church and I have never taken Bible class other than from the Christian junior school I attended.

I have always believed in God and I have always been protected from any serious events happening. I could have died half a dozen times in my life, but God's synchronicities always saved me.

I am not saying this is special treatment. It is just an example of the infallible love and protection that God provides to his children. I talk to God several times a day, and there isn't a day that goes by when God doesn't say 'hi' back to me.

A short anecdote;
Just last week, I had settled into an hour long video, I had just finished dinner. I was totally engrossed in the content of the video and was deep in thought. Suddenly there was a loud bang on my window, and I ran out to find out what caused it. I found a little bird dazed and standing on the deck looking up at me. I stroked his little chest and stayed with him until he was good to fly away.

I went back into the house and immediately could smell something burning. I had left a small electric oven on, that I had absent mindedly forgotten to turn off, it was extremely hot and the pan was buckling.

Of course you would say it was just a coincidence.

When unusual synchronicities like this happen to you almost daily, sometimes, several times a day, you stop saying that was just a coincidence.

I don't understand why you can't see it. Why don't you experience those kind of events? .. Could it be that you do experience synchronicities but you just ignore them?

On another occasion after a really difficult time in my life, at a time when I felt very low on energy and hope. I dragged my way to the top paddock to do some work and right in front of me, there in all it's glory stood a white hart stag. He stayed long enough for me to approach a little closer but then calmly turned around and disappeared into the woods.

Phantom dogs, that could not have possibly entered my property through link chain fencing, appear from nowhere and disappear into bushes shortly after I talk to them.

3 day after we moved onto our property. I heard a thud outside my back door. Just then the phone rang and my neighbour called to ask if a Wedge tailed eagle had dropped something on my house. I went to the back door again, and just outside the door, on my deck, was the chewed out carcass of a rabbit .. go figure!

Then a week later, the ravens held a meeting in the tree's behind my house, hundreds of crows showed up for a three day party. I thought maybe its was regular thing but that never happened again.

Most of the time I can't draw any specific message from each of those events. They appear to be just reminders that I am living in some sort of biological simulation. I am constantly experiencing the inexplicable.

Would a scientific mind, simply dismiss all of that, along with hundreds of other inexplicable "coincidences".

You defend your science so vociferously and yet, now, it has become patently obvious that science is controlled by the globalists. Follow the money! .. The science is just fine .. the scientists themselves are lying traitors, as is the entire institute of the medical profession. Your science will be facing justice very soon.



Christians, muslims and the like, are same blind iggnorant masses that stone people to death

That was probably the worst word to spell incorrectly. Oh! and Modern Evolution Theory is a crock of .. Another example of science lying to the population to push its own scientism cult.

They claimed to have a perfectly functioning moral sense.

I find your reasoning incomprehensible. I have, from a child been very clear about what is good and what is bad. learning the difference between right and wrong is something children are taught even before state schooling.

Did you skip that lesson, because your objection to any one having a sense of morality is bazaar and talks a lot about your own personal spiritual growth or lack there of.

You sound very bitter Astyanax, I don't know what terrible experiences you have endured, to make you so objectionable towards people who have faith.

I wish you well! Astyanax and I hope that your outlook on life improves with time.

If someone is to weak and needs an invisible imaginary friend to make them feel good about themselves without any proof, thats fine. It's the horrid things they do because of that belief thats should be shown for what it is, and thats moral coruption.

To tell others they're 'mentally challenged' as you said because they want proof of this being (of which none excists) to me is a sign they could be 'mentally challenged' themselves. God is in the same club as Santa, the Easter bunny and the Tooth Fairy, a tall tale to tell children to make them feel better or behave in a certain way. An adult shouldn't need that hand holding to be a 'good' person?

From your little tirade here, i see you've never seen a Doctor?
Having family who have spent their entire working lives trying to help others as healthcare professionals, I see things a little different but the thread isn't about that. Lets just hope you won't need one in the future??

I've been a member since 2006 in those years we've had many religious members claim Jesus is on his way, we've had so many who have claimed to be him. Not one has shown any evidence of God/Jesus and after 2000 years there's been no evidence, you could argue there's no evidence the biblical Jesus was even real.
So as we advance in our understanding of nature and the universe, God gets pushed out that little bit further.

Humans have a knack in looking for pattern recognition which is why some believe in things like synchronicity.


Synchronicity
Reviewed by Psychology Today Staff

Synchronicity is a phenomenon in which people interpret two separate—and seemingly unrelated—experiences as being meaningfully intertwined, even though there is no evidence that one led to the other or that the two events are linked in any other causal way. Though many people perceive signs or spiritual meaning in synchronistic events, most scientists believe that such events are more likely coincidences that only seem meaningful due to aspects of human thinking such as confirmation bias.

I have a very sensitive keyboard and sometimes I get double letters from a single press but those who try to claim the moral high ground tend to be the worst grammar and spelling Nazi types!!

I haven't visited the quacks since Feb 2020 .. that was the last time I shall ever visit a doctor .. I live in a small town and our doctors have presided over the death of hundreds of locals who died from the bioweapon.

How can anybody ever trust them again?

I will die when God takes me .. I have absolutely no fear of when that comes .. or what comes next .. I am loved and protected and have no fear of life at all. Faith moves mountains, albeit with a truck and block and tackle but determination is what makes the man.

I may not respond to you again so please have a nice life, sorry I told you to shut up, but it did stop me from saying what I wanted to say.

When unusual synchronicities like this happen to you almost daily, sometimes, several times a day, you stop saying that was just a coincidence.

I don't understand why you can't see it. Why don't you experience those kind of events? .. Could it be that you do experience synchronicities but you just ignore them?

Most of the time I can't draw any specific message from each of those events. They appear to be just reminders that I am living in some sort of biological simulation. I am constantly experiencing the inexplicable.

Literally not one of your listed anecdotes could be considered either synchronicity, inexplicable, or coincidence.
Nothing you listed was connected in any way- you described random, unrelated events and clearly took some weird liberties...


I sincerely think you exhibit symptoms of psychosis, paranoia, delusion, and possibly schizophrenia. I hope you seek out some kind of cognitive behavioral therapy- I can't imagine a person could enjoy life with such a paranoid and delusional world view. Take care of yourself, Kennyb75....
