invisible things moving and creating things out of nothing

my argument was it gives social and emotional benefits

which is a hell of a lot better then scotch

SO what. — Banno

so religion is just as important as science

Yep. That's my point. — Banno

social and emotional benefits are often more important then physical benefits

“The fish trap exists because of the fish. Once you've gotten the fish you can forget the trap. The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit. Once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words exist because of meaning. Once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words. Where can I find a man who has forgotten words so I can talk with him?” -Chuang Tzu

The wisest man that ever lived claimed he knew nothing. — Cheshire

the statement contradicts itself. if he knew nothing he wouldnt know it, or say it

its called wisdom and enlightenment

Yeah, there's a trick of the mind called free association and confusing the two is ill advised. There's also the host of irrational things and suspension of disbelief. However, I think you may have just wanted to evade the point and believe yourself mysterious. — Cheshire

An island on an infinite ocean. — Banno

which is a contradiction

im doing a great job at debunking you guys

you just dont know it yet, cuz your a slow learner lol

What do you get when you invoke religion's invisible forces? — Banno

because im a philosopher

i go beyond science and religion

i go beyond everything and everyone

and i deliver the higher answers down to the simple people. haha

Life is getting easier with less money. — Shawn

yes technology has been improving life

but also been concentrating the wealth into the hands of a few

eventually pollution will start to lower the quality of life

What is being demonstrated? — Cheshire

that science and religion are both based in invisible things and magical thinking

go wrestle a grizzly bear and u will quickly find out that power is more important then intelligence

covid is stupid and it killed millions of intelligent beings

In my case, you can just wiki 'Brain', and get what you need. — Kinglord1090

in my case you can just wiki 'hard problem of consciousness' and get what you need

You can have your belief and I can have mine. — Kinglord1090

sounds like a typical statement a powerless person makes to appease a more powerful person

haha

too scared to fight

now you see the omnipotence of power

and omni-importance

everything in our experience can be interpreted/translated as mathematics — Paul Fishwick

same thing could be said about poetry

which is the opposite of math

Ok, and by the same logic, if anyone wants to kill you for power, its totally fine. — Kinglord1090

so get used to it.

if you claim that a self with free-will and intelligence exists then the burden of proof is on you

so get busy

By sheer luck.
Not because they deserved it. — Kinglord1090

no its because intelligence doesn't actually exist

there is no self, with free-will, who is intelligent.

all that is a delusion. doesnt exist

in reality there is only simplicity and complexity

and simplicity is stronger then complexity, so it lasts longer

If someone took a single drop of water of finite size from an infinite ocean would it actually be taking from the ocean? — TiredThinker

if the ocean was truly infinite there would be no way to take a cup of water from it

cups would not even exist, nor would any space outside of the ocean to move it to

million of years after humans are extinct thousands of stupid lifeforms that are here now will still exist
