With the below, all I am asking is to Think. You may not have to think critically, just Think.
Nothing.
Philosophy, as in versus Philosophiæ, only proves two things. Only two things.
Sorry, but philosophy is ONLY True when it is a True statement, such as “I believe the sky is looking quite blue today.” The connection of sky-blue makes it a factual statement, but it is still philosophical using “looking quite blue”, when to you it may be greyish. Now, can you YET see how a statement CAN be both factual and philosophical? The obverse is prevaricative and philosophical.
Philosophiæ is a method of thinking. Basically, in as few words, critical thinking using logical deduction.
Like the anus, everyone has a philosophy. But it seems so few can philosophiæ.
Logic is Cold. Cruel. Heartless. Unforgiving. Uncaring.
Philosophy is Friendly. Accepting. That “Warm Fuzzy”.
Logic has ONLY ONE answer out of ONLY TWO possible answers in the forms of: True/False, Yes/No, On/Off, 1/0. There ARE NO tweeners.
Philosophy has infinite answers and possibilities once you include all those Buts, Howevers, Wannabes, Washy Wishes, et cetera, et alia.
Logic can prove you can think critically, to your degree and magnitude, and possibly deduce a correct True/False answer.
Philosophy only proves you can deduce truthfulness, but, also capable of fabricating beLIEvable prevarications.
What Religitards of today have done is to force “their” philosophy into Logic. It does not work that way. Religitards also recruit their better intellectuals and BRIBE them with paid-for BSc, MSc, PhD, ScD degrees in a field of science. However, there is always a written and signed contract that forces them to “keep the faith” regardless. If such a person is still gullible enough, they are forced to misappropriate science Language to pervert and twist it to fit within their narative.
To take ANY demonstrable truth and convert it into a believable prevarication IS PERVERTED. Or, as I have said, “Evil, Wicked, Mean, and Nasty.”
Ultimate meaning, “Twisted beyond the mortal kin.” Twisted meaning, mentally deranged.
Matt Slick asked me this question a long time ago, “Do you believe evil exists?”
Answer: “No. I do not believe. I KNOW evil exists. It is called religion.” And he has never deigned to ever speak to me ever again. Coward.
And religion has plagued Humanity for at least 100Ka. As KNOWledge increases, religion MUST evolve, or it dies. Exactly like species. You Religitards claim Evolution is False, yet all you can offer is monumental piles of Word Salad, Gish Gallop, Horse Hoowhee, Bull Stinky, and Brain Diarrhea. Where in 7734 is the OHEEF?
FACT: In just the USofA alone, religion pulls in 100s of Billions of $ each year. TAX-FREE!!
Ever heard of Research Triangle Park in the State of North Carolina? The largest R&D complex in the USofA. With IBM foundationing, RTP was setup with Trust Fund and managers. Now it is one of the most advanced in the USofA.
Why do NOT you Religitards setup your own version of the NAS? Find an even larger chunk of land to purchase. Build your own Religitard R&D supercomplex and put those $ where your dogmatic rhetoric is. PROVE science is False. PROVE the supernatural exists alongside the natural. Otherwise, shut the 7734 up. Quit with all the god-damned lying.
Faith may be something held as truthfulness, but without OHEEF, it is False. There is a huge difference between my definition, which is the only definition, for faith and religious faith.
Religious faith is “beLIEf in lies as truth”.
And this definition for christinsanity faith is so completely False. “Hebrews 11:1 – Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen.”
How can I have faith in something that does not exist (“proof of things not seen”)? Yes, you arsehoes can claim, “You cannot see the air yet know it exists.” Childish. I can prove air exists. I cannot see your God-Thing, yet I also cannot prove IT. Why? Because that “God-Thing” concept is nothing more than a “phantasm” of the mind. Pure True Intellectual Laziness (apathy and inactivity put into practice). Since, not one Religitard can offer even a molecule’s worth of evidence proving their beLIEfs True, then they MUST be False. Remember, NO tweeners.
And Sociopathic Bill invents another greatest oxymoron with his WWW site’s name: Reasonable Faith. There is absolutely nothing reasonable about religious faith. Even a moron can see that. Religious faith is Utterly Blind. Religious faith can only be kept alive by the lies one tells one’s self. It is HUMAN to want to believe in the better. Yet, without OHEEF, it is just a fantasy.
Why is it easier to believe a beLIEvable prevarication, than it is to KNOW a Truth?
Here is my take: You have hope for things and put faith into them. Not the other way around. Atheism 101.
Example: 15th Wedding Anniversary. VERY special, for me. We could get no baby-sitter. We had hope our 13y old daughters would act accordingly if left home alone. We put our faith into them. I.E.– We had complete confidence in them. The ONLY definition of “faith”. When we returned later, EVERYTHING was locked. Even the windows that had blocks installed. Could only open so far, say about 6 to 8 centimeters. Ain’t no human fitting through that. They even closed and locked the steel door between the floors. Now THAT is faith earned. Faith cannot be demanded. Commanded. As with christinsanity.
Religious faith is just those lies you have convinced your self of.
IOW: It is you using two of your Three of Me to convince your self (Me) with your self (I). Parentheticals are examples of your Three of Me.
If us humans do have this everlasting eternal soul-thingy, then I want you to at least think on this hypothesis. Just, Think. My brain diarrhea.
Just think. You have literally forever to learn the ALL-Knowledge, yet would still have forever to use it. The VERY definition of Eternity.
And, you set yourself up for a fall being your own God-Thing. Those beings that achieve sapience are going to pester the 7734 out of you so badly, you want to send a GSE (Global Sterilization Event). À la Armageddon. The Feature Film.
T…H…I…N…K…
The above kind-of explains the multiverse hypothesis…
Now explain why you wish to exist forever? I would not. I would rather have a cessation of existence.
How can I KNOW your beliefs system is True?
For ALL OHEEF humans have gathered proves it False.
Why MUST I beLIEve in ANY God-Thing? To save my soul-thingy?
You MUST first prove the soul-thingy exists before you can claim to be saving it.
Exactly like that IDF (Intelligent Design Fantasy). Before you can claim “intelligent design” you MUST first prove the “intelligent designer” exists. THAT is the Ultimate reason why the IDF AIN’T science.
One can claim anything appears, seems, simulates, is akin to “looking” as if intelligently designed. However, to ASSuMe it IS designed is like a “mental” premature ejaculation. All Life has done for nearly 4Ga is actually prove my ICIDIC Hypothesis derived over half a century ago. Stole it from the Vulcan IDIC.
Us lowly humans have discovered that Life can create “infinite complexity” from “infinite diversity” through “infinite combinations”. ICIDIC.
Besides, the “longevity” of any philosophical ideology is NEVER indicative of its veracity. There are documents much, MUCH!, older than christinsanity, islamaboobism, and catholithuggery. Many 1000s of years older. What makes them False and yours True? Because of your Blind beliefs and Blind faith? Because your Word Salad, Gish Gallop, Horse Hoowhee, Bull Stinky, and Brain Diarrhea utilizes a more sophisticated verbiage? Word usage. [? WSGGHHBSBD ?]
7734, caveman paintings (their documents) possess a much greater truthfulness than any Religitardism.
I wrote an essay about a sci-fi story written by Isaac Asimov completely from memory. I remembered the title as being The Machine at the End of Time. I remembered the story being akin to asking an unanswerable question. I remembered the question being akin to “Can creation be a spoken event?”
I was completely wrong. Story was actually The Last Question. The question was, “Can the entropy of the universe be reversed?”
For untold ages, the machine only returned:
INSUFFICIENT DATA FOR MEANINGFUL ANSWER.
Eventually, no others visited the machine for the universe was in the “Heat Death”. Finally, the machine had an answer and spoke.
“Let there be Light.”
I did remember the final spoken words of the machine verbatim. It was this story and a National Geographic article (60±y ago) that I derived my model of the cosmos/universe/multiverse.
My Open Cosmos Model: The cosmos is what has existed forever, without beginning, without end. How? Why? Shall never be answered. The Cosmos is the framework into which the universe, space, energy, matter can expand into it. Detonation of THE Singularity. Once fully expanded into the heat death, gravity takes over and crunches everything back into a new singularity. BOOM! Another big bang.
Of course, my model Begs the Question: “Which Iteration do we currently exist?” First? Second? Millionth? …?
That question is literally moot. It does not even matter if this is the First Iteration. For humans shall never exist long enough to answer the questions of this model.
This, My Open Model, also would NOT violate thermodynamics since the singularity will receive a universe’s worth of energy put back into THE Singularity. Supercriticality, and BOOM! a new iteration of the universe. Also Begs the Question: “How long between singularity events?” 50 quadrillion years? 69 sextillion years? Again, a useless question. Moot. NO Humans will live to see it.
Of course, how do I prove My Open Model (unbelievably MOM)? Can you believe that? Just did pop into me frond. Answer is I cannot prove it. But I like it.
Want more proof? Attend an event, whatever the event, say even just a date with the wife. Record that event visually and audibly. Two senses. Wait a year. Write an essay about the details of that event. THEN watch the video.
Same? Never. Human memory is the MOST fallacious aspect of being human. Even catastrophic events are rarely remembered correctly after a time.
Yet you Religitards demand I believe the gospels of that bible-thingy are True records of Actual Events? And Only first transcribed more than 35 years AFTER the crucifixion event? When averaging the ages of gospel documents, Mark was written no sooner than 35 years later. Matthew, 50 years later. Luke 60 years later. John, 80 years later.
You cannot.
Yet you Religitards expect me to Blindly accept the gospels as True Truth? Why would I do anything blindly when I can still see?
The gospels are nothing but a mish-mash of rehashed common tropes of the era. Resurrection myths had been around for over 5000 years before the Hebrews ever existed. AND, the same is applicable to the old testament.
Gods behaving even more petty than humans.
Have you ever played this game? You could also call it “The Fish That Got Away Story”. They are spread word-of-mouth. Only problem, each retelling gets bigger, Bigger, BIGGER until no truth exists. That is how the resurrection myth got greater, Greater, and more sophisticated. Yet still a myth.
However, with the retellings of religious myths, the stories actually get worse, Worser, WORSTEST.
Religion teaches nothing. Religion: Demands obedience. Commands respect. Requires submission.
No thanks. I would rather have the Free Choice to Think critically for me self.
Their Knowledge Base.
If it is scientific, then Religitards are so clueless, they are worse than blind.
That is NOT to say they never read science. Many do. The problem lies in understanding AND comprehension. The Religitards cannot, if it is science.
Once Religitard, YOU lost.
Once Religitard, you can no longer think without emotions. The most fallacious of all thought processes. No more True critical thinking. No more True logic. No more Philosophiæ. Once Religitard, you can never think AOAP (As Objective(ly) As Possible).
How am I to believe in anything I can demonstrably falsify?
