Sree: What are you, really? Pull the plug out and you disappear.
Guess if you don’t believe in physical reality you might be able to imagine that Sree.
But pull the plug on me and there will be a pile of something on that floor. That something that matters to the biosphere as it moves through time.
That something will then decompose and r…[Read more]

And of course I expect you will ignore every word Dr. Alley says, the same way you did with Widdershins’ most excellent summary response (at December 23, 2019 at 5:25 pm#316243.) which made a wonderful springboard for a serious discuss that you ran away from.
But, it’s typical for the religious type, blind to their own hypocrisy and depend on…[Read more]

Sree #316295 What happens when you question scriptural authority is exactly the same as when you question scientific authority. In the former case, you get ex-communicated and in the latter, you are shunned by your peers.
Bull Shit!

Heart – It beats inexplicably,
Full stop.
Inexplicably, seriously?
No explanations have been provided for the beating of our mammalian hearts. Is that what you ‘know’?
Well, it must be a miracle, eh Sree?

Sree: “I can share my discoveries with you.”
Please do. I know you can do beating about the bush and avoidance. Can you do succinct?

Sree: You don’t think mind is an idea, Citizen? Is it because I don’t have the intellectual heft? Or is it because you accept the popular scientific belief that it is the consciousness generated by your brain?
What’s your intellectual heft, or lack thereof, got to do with it? Sounds like a gratuitous diversion intended to avoid the simple quest…[Read more]

Always comes down to meaning, doesn’t it.
I’m fine with an unknowable “God” embedded within the universe and its evolution.
I’m even fine with the creations of “God” people put together and choose to believe in.
Where I draw the line is when anyone becomes self-certain that their God is the only ‘truth’ god or even more ludicrously the one and…[Read more]

Citizenschallenge-v.3 replied to the topic Can Nature and God be the same thing? in the forum Humanism 5 years, 1 month ago
To me, reality is inherently perceptual in nature because the field of consciousness, prior to cognition, has no material qualities. At the onset of cognition, everything takes on a form, color and texture informed by knowledge to generate an illusion of Nature. Is this supernatural or what? To me, that is God in action.
To me that sounds like…[Read more]

Although, believe it or not, in the early ’90s during my various studies into Evolution through the finds scientists were making, I was struck with a mantra that keeps coming back into my thoughts, usually totally unbidden, to this day, and I imagine to my death.

Why would he oppose the teaching of creationism?
To start out with because creationism is founded upon and depend upon misrepresenting scientific findings and understanding.
Because Creationism isn’t about learning – Creationism is about advertising and proclaiming and a self-certain immutable truth.
How am I doing so far?

I think next time I use the word “God” I just might link it to that image. Sounds like fun, imagining folks hitting the link and then having to reconcile that universal perspective with whatever God thing was going on in their minds. My kind of fun.

Wow, what a beautiful chart. First time I’ve seen it.
BBC Future takes the temperature of our planet – and the Universe – to find the hottest and coldest things ever measured.
It’s an amazing representation, no “understanding” it – simply stand back and behold. This is what we were made out of.
Thank you W4U, great Christmas present 🙂
