Over all, this is a less brutal age. But we now have newly -forged varieties of violence. How long is this "age"? Since Vietnam? Or Korea? Or WW2? How sure are we that we have detected a permanent trend? In human history, there is a steady correlation between increased technological means for war a...

Over all, this is a less brutal age. But we now have newly -forged varieties of violence. True there are different forms of evil and violence, but the basic consequences their pain and sufferings to all human is the same [physiologically and psychologically] within human nature. E.g. there would be...

V A Plato once defined man as a being in search of meaning. . You explain the search to experience our Source as the need for consolation: to avoid experiencing the question of our mortality. But what if the need to experience objective meaning is more than consolation? This is the essential questi...

THERE IT IS - THE BIG PILE OF WAFFLE THAT I KNEW SOMEONE WITH YOUR BIAS AND INTELLECT WOULD RESORT TO. WITHOUT all the interpretation of bollocks that you just posted (as usual):- WHERE IS A STATEMENT THAT IF YOU DON"T SURRENDER TO JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD YOU ARE GOING TO HELL? 1. ONE quote from th...

YOU again - another fucking short sighted moron atheist. WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT SAY IF YOU DON"T SURRENDER TO JESUS AS THE SON OF GOD YOU ARE GOING TO HELL? FFS. You are the glaring evidence as a proof to my theory that theism is very psychological. That is why you are so shaken to vulgarity an...

Very happy thank you. PS. If anyone is in hell, they certainly don't deserve lovin'. According to Allah of Islam, ALL non-Muslims will go to hell to be burnt eternally. According to Christianity, ALL non-Christians, i.e. those who did not surrender to Jesus as son of God will go to hell. YOU again ...

V A You can speculate on anything you like. If you speculate, then you must qualify whatever is speculated is a speculation. But the inner search for our source is a response to a psychological need rather than speculation. Much like a moth is attracted to the light, there is something in our colle...

As the last nail, I have demonstrated it is impossible for a God to be real. God is an Impossibility to be Real https://forum.philosophynow.org/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=24704 You have demonstrated your extreme bias, that is all, so stop thread spamming your shit all over the place - nobody's interested...

I have loads of circumstantial evidence that to a reasonable mind should infer the 3rd party intelligence exists beyond a reasonable doubt. The idea of God is confined to psychology and the activities within the brain/mind and no where else. There is no thing-in-itself and no God-in-itself existing...

Ok, I should have not used ' TOTALLY unproven' - since I am stating the 3rd party intelligence has proved its existence to an individual. The point being made is that although an individual can receive proof of God's existence, it can leave that individual without proof for others. As I had stated,...

Thank you for the details about Pinker's " The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined" 2011. The data is impressive in quantity and quality. I especially liked the comparative studies of brains. studies of brains. I have as you might expect objections. There have been reports from a...

You've been propagandized. Suckered by anaesthetising right wing media. Fake news. Nope. I don't rely on sound bites, and I'm aware of the propaganda. Go on, do some research into your border-children issue. The truth is out there but you have to surf a bit, and think clearly. You sure won't find i...

Wrong. Since there are no moral facts, any moral assertion expresses an opinion which can't be factually verified or falsified. The linking verb 'is' has a different function in factual and non-factual assertions. Merely insisting that it doesn't begs the question. If I say 'This painting is beauti...

1 Your claim that there are moral facts 'specific' to the moral FSK assumes there is a moral FSK within which there are moral facts, which begs the question. Waste of time. My claim is the same that there are scientific facts specific to the scientific FSK. The scientific FSK is constructed informa...
