Re: THought for the Day: Nuclear Deterent
I found this on another board. I think you might educate yourself by reading it. One of the consequences of 98% only reading the first sentence on anything is vast miscontruals of Putin's motives. Endless reams of total garbage about his 'evil soul' are now appearing when he has done nothing worse ...

Re: THought for the Day: Nuclear Deterent
What about the ethnic Russians living as Ukrainians that the Ukrainian deth squad have been killing since 2014? Why have you never spared a thought for them? Is it because your media never bothered to mention the separatists war that led to this current situation? Why did the Ukraine not follow the...

Re: THought for the Day: Nuclear Deterent
Every warmonger has that mindset. Everyone who fights in a war believes they are fighting and "dying," for their country, and so long as everyone in the world believes that anything is more important than their own life--their country, their God, their ideology, or anything else, and are ...

Re: THought for the Day: Nuclear Deterent
Exactly how is the so-called invasion of the Ukraine by Russia anyone else's business except the Ukranians and Russians? What's it to you? I understand why all the war-mongers want to stick their hateful noses in everyone else's business, but not anyone who is a rational, decent, productive individ...

Re: An afterlife and forgetfulness
I find myself forgetting many things, places I've been, things I've done, people I've known. What happens when I completely forget everything? What happens when I die? If there is being after death, then what could/would it be like without any memories or sensory experience? Both the senses and mem...

Information can get passed by people and the media. As it does, it gets stronger and can have a significant effect. Physical events diminish the farther away people are.

Therefore Donald Trump does not exist. the Bible is confusing and erroneous. Therefore God does not...

Re: Atheistic reasoning
I have no idea what you mean by, "atheist," but I don't think you know much about those who just don't don't drink the theist Cool Aid. What do you care what you call atheists think, anyway? I don't care what you drink. And you should think whatever you want. Is anyone stopping you? You w...

Re: Atheistic reasoning
No faith is not a persons perspective in any meaningful sense. Everyone has a perpective, atheists and non atheists, and it is not defined by faith. "Faith, derived from Latin fides and Old French feid,[1] is confidence or trust." Trust whatever your mind wants. Gosh Pity that is not rela...

Re: Atheistic reasoning
When you clearly have not the slightest idea about the definition of faith, you cannot expect to be taken seriously. Denying basic facts is not way to contribute to an argument. If you want to offer a defence of "faith" then do so! But no one is going to take you seriously if you are goin...

Re: Atheistic reasoning
Well, you are free to make up any definition you like for any word you like, but your description of faith is not what any other religious person I know means by faith and it is not how it is defined in any dictionary. Most people's, "orientation to life," (whatever that means) is not the...
