    The silence of God

    "Affirmed", no. "Claimed some god or gods exists", yes. As people spread across the planet they took "god" ideas with them which changed over time.

    The Moral Argument

    That may come as a surprise to my wife of 20 years and our kids. :D

    Are We Living in an Ancestor Simulation?

    Everything you've said misses the most important point. The copy believes it's you as much as you do. It's not your job and wife in his mind, it's his job and wife. Here, a little perspective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vDtvgQT9s0

    Dinosaur Soft Tissue

    Nah, this will somehow be the next great fraud that proves evolution false and all scientists liars, just like the Piltdown hoax. I expect maximum dishonesty.

    Evolution of Man Began in Eastern Mediterranean, Not Africa

    Re: Evolution of Man Began in Eastern Mediterranean, Not Afr You know... this makes you wonder (well me at least) about something... the Mediterranean Sea didn't exist yet. What was that area like at the time, where the sea is now? Maybe a huge, lush valley or some other favorable climate? It...

    Are We Living in an Ancestor Simulation?

    Your copy shows up at your door, believing it's you. It wants you out, because you're clearly the copy, and fully intends to continue its' life (i.e. take over your life), including hopping in the sack with your wife. If the copy is perfect, it's for all intents and purposes you in a different...

    AronRa/joelmoravek debate thread

    Aron made a seemingly final comment in his discussion thread to the effect of it not taking long for the guy to bugger off. I think the reason is clear: Aron: Now if you want to talk about evolution, then we can get away from what I believe so I can show you what I know, so that you'll know it...

    Pest control in the UK (and anywhere else)

    Oddly enough I don't recall saying you did. You can, for example, build a better hen house. Why, because you lack the imagination to design one that would work? It wouldn't take a whole lot of innovation at all and building one out of scrap lying around won't suffice. FFS, you pay less...

    Pest control in the UK (and anywhere else)

    Well this certainly is interesting. Let's say people eradicate foxes because chickens. Now the rabbits, already somewhat out of control, have no predators at all. You think there's a rabbit problem now? In this case, based on what little I've picked up about the situation, it would seem to be to...

    Pest control in the UK (and anywhere else)

    Are the foxes native to the UK? If so, it's likely that their controlling factor was the abundance of prey if they're actually not being hunted themselves by eagles or the like. Yes, we're a part of nature, but keep in mind that we are also, for all intents and purposes, an invasive species...

    Pest control in the UK (and anywhere else)

    Might as well add my two cents, but I doubt if I could get even that much for it. First of all, nature doesn't "know" shit. You have an entire ecology that evolved together with naturally adapted checks and balances in place (until we came along that is). And that there is the crux of the...

    The silence of God

    You seem to be ignoring an important point... could your god not make it objectively clear that it's the god doing this to everyone? Yet if this god showed up and incontrovertibly demonstrated that it was the one curing the cancer of the loved one, do you honestly think that, in light of this...

    AronRa/joelmoravek debate thread

    Well this quote is... interesting... Apparently this is with regards to angular momentum left over from the Big Bang? I wonder if he's just religigurtitating this quote from somewhere without actually giving it any thought... likely I'd say. Apparently he's unaware that localized events can...

    The silence of God

    Wow, talk about changing my goalposts. You're correct (and I thought it was clear) that (while all gods have been silent) I was specifically talking about Leroy's particular flavor of a god.

    The silence of God

    Are you implying that his followers would leave if they found out he was actually real?

    The silence of God

    And you do acknowledge we non-theists will not suddenly become followers without evidence to convince us there's something to follow. So tell me, if we're going from a zero chance of becoming followers to a greater than zero chance should this god present himself in a convincing way, isn't...

    The silence of God

    Let's add one word to that, shall we Leroy? "...more evidence for God (whatever you would consider evidence) would lead to potentially more followers. Worded like this, would you say this is a true statement?

    Re: A blunder that theists make all the time... Or how they I'd be curious to know what his definition of "pervert" actually is.
