LOL I'm American & find your humo(u)r very funny. If the Brits destroyed the white house today than that would be the second time in history that England burned down the white house. :)
You do have to admit that King George III was a bit loopy, perhaps due to porphyria.
Complain all you want, but for over a year I have heard Simon Singh praise the improvements we made to laws we inherited from the British (and really, we thank you for a sane basis of common law!). Especially the bits about the first amendment to our constitution and libel law. So there! ;-)
Sorry, I cannot be online then... we will be having lunch with my Canadian mum-in-law!
Happy 4th of July America, celebrating getting Independence from Britain :) - Just know that the one and only reason you won that Independence is because the French helped you and Britain fought them for the most part, so why dont you little pricks get on your knees a suck a Frenchman to show your gratitude :D
wow don't you love how 90% of pseudointellectuals only know the name of one logical fallacy so in an attempt to "sound smart" they refer to any disagreement with them as a strawman? When a person calls you a witless buffoon it's not a strawman it's an ad hominen.
"their treachery against the British Empire" come on now i mean its not like we were terrorists or anything at all i mean all we wanted was the ocean to be tea.
fantastic, i can actually watch this time. and you have the sex symbol of yt atheists with you . i refer of course to AronRa, what can i say i have a thing
"Topic: Are there any good reasons to believe in a god?" Debatable at best, as it's both a personal matter between religious and nonreligious aswell as an ideological matter. There are many different reasons to believe in a God, it can be out of comfort or hope. Is it a good reason? As previously said, debatable at best. It can be good for one individual, but another might actually find it to be a rather harmful behaviour.
Basically, we're dealing with individuals here, rather than groups.
i will love this 234th year of british treachery by have some burgers and blowing shit up!!! we never needed those brits! btw will there be a taping to view it the next day?
Oh, that was funny! (4th being the day we celebrate our treachery against the British.) We stole your flag, stole your language, stole your national anthem and made them all better! (And we can cook, unlike the British!) ;-)
@Elmoogle Nope, the day you fought a proxy war for France. Tuppence on Tea? The only tax. Do you drink tea now? How much tax do you pay. Got it so wrong dude. lol
Take care and I hope you had a happy traitors day. Vive la France! ;-)
this was too quick for me, hahahhah, nice. very entertainin' nice video, Yo check this video out on #2 Education list on today, Indonesian baby Smoking Still Smoking New HD watch?v=OCxeQd-p7XQ
@Desertphile yeah, but then you went on to steal a bunch of our better hockey players and then proceeding to beating us with them pretty consistently. I'd say that makes us even. ;)
Wow... I just lost a ton of respect for AndromedasWake. British Imperialism was far from noble, first of all. Second, I find it hard to believe he didn't realize how venomous those words were.
@AndromedasWake XD Not that I disagree, but as far as I'm aware, the British society is one well-known for it's excessive politeness and formalities isn't it, good ol' chap? ;]
@AndromedasWake Because the majority of Americans are nationalists, disguised as patriots, for all the WRONG reasons.
And I'm American. And I love my country. And I'm proud to be an independent open thinker who uses reason and logic to question all motives, concepts and ideological viewpoints.
But to each their own. Great promo vid for the LOR. I think I'm going to find that site and join the conversation.
Oh... and I just bought a telescope 2 days ago. Orion Skyquest XT-10 Classic Dob.
@AndromedasWake You have to remember that most Americans, despite the myths, are descended from Germans and Scandinavians, for Americans the word "irony" is just an adjective used to describe ferrous metals.
@AndromedasWake The neighbors are already starting fireworks. All the loud explosions reminds me of the time we kicked your biscuit nibblin' asses a couple centuries ago. We won, and now it's spelled "color." (My way of a personal apology, dude. I had no real reason to get butthurt.)
I see now that it is clearly humor (actually, humour). I mean, it's humour I really don't "get" or find all that funny, but it's obviously a joke. And I admitted I made a mistake; I overreacted based on a misunderstanding caused by hasty judgement. I was wrong.
I'm not sure what the hell your problem is, though. Why would any good-willed and rational person feel the need to ridicule me for a mistake both admitted and trivial? Do you need an ego boost that badly?
@cjc813 I normally wouldn't care but the combination of idiocy, hyper-sensitivity and lack of sense of humor was a trifecta that stepped on all my nerves. Grow a thicker skin if you plan on being that way. Think before you type.
@CriticalAtheist And... you're still being a self-righteous asshole. Which is no surprise, really. For someone who ought to be a beacon of rationality, you sure are a miserable prick.
Just because God doesn't exist doesn't make you any closer to divine. You're an oft-disgusting ape just like the rest of us, and you'd do well to remember that.
@cjc813 I did touch a nerve, didn't I? So many misguided words. You're actually the one who seems to think you're a god. Coming up with a (mis)characterization as if it were fact, based solely on a couple of comments made by the person. Such omniscience you have. I'd suggest you come down off your high horse or cloud or astral plain before reality pulls you down. Again think about that thicker skin.
@CriticalAtheist You honestly just fucking lost me with that one. Seriously, what makes you assume I'm a creationist?
Plus, I love how one dumb ass comment and I'm a plague of the United States, yet you deride me for hours on end and I can't call you an arrogant ass. It's a funny ol' world where some can judge based on comments and others can't.
You're blind to your own hypocrisy. Yet I admit a fault and I'm a piece of shit. Makes perfect sense. (Sadly, it actually does.)
@cjc813 Stop strawmaning. 1. I never said you were a creationist. 2. Of course there are many problems with the US; saying "you are what's wrong" is a figure of speech. No one (as far as I can tell) ever *actually* thinks that person and their ilk are the only problem with the US. 3. You can call me arrogant all you like, never said you couldn't. 4. You judged my entire character I judged your comments. Stop strawmaning every single point. You're ****like**** a creationist. Clear enough?
@CriticalAtheist 1.) It seemed implied. If I misunderstood THAT it's because you only used two words to make a point. 2.) But didn't you realize me saying you thought you were God was a figure of speech? 3.) Mindless arrogance is not a favorable trait. 4.) Oh, but I was just judging your comments!
5.) You clearly don't understand what a strawman is. 6.) It *is* clear enough when you use your words like a big boy. 7.) Your last comment has been marked as spam w/o a single click from me. I lol'd.
@cjc813 1. Well now you know. 2. Of course, when did I say otherwise? 3. I never said I was arrogant, you did. 4. Yeah, that's what I was doing. Read it all over again if you don't believe me. 5. Strawman-an argument that resembles mine but isn't. It's made so you can easily knock it down. i.e. saying I called you a creationist so you could 'correct me'. Claiming I did what you arrogantly did by judging my whole character based on a couple comments. 6 & 7 is childish wanking; no need to comment.
A)I misunderstood you. Not my fault. You used 2 words; I can't read minds. B)Our judgement of each other *is the same,* regardless of semantics. C)Difference is, I admit my wrong and you still attack. Were someone to tell me "I was wrong." I'd cut em some slack; honest mistake. But I'm not a self-righteous ass like you. Which has been my main point for some time now. No way that's a strawman. E) We're done. You're piss poor at arguing, and a pitiful excuse for a free-thinker.
well dude if we hadn't of rebelled and stewed for a good century than we could not have come back and saved your ass when the germans were knocking at your door or given you all those weapons and food and medicine that kept you guys alive and help you rebuild. Treachery? fuck that grandpa!
@RavenBlaze True, then again if you hadnt rebeled then we would of had a massive industrial empire and army and would of crushed the Germans without much thought at all in both World Wars :p
@AngelicBlade1000 I'll give u that... but I don't really see how the UK could have held on to us, part of the reason we got independence was b/c u guys had ur hands full with the French & all the other stuff going on in Europe at that time. Beside if the USA had not become independent it might not have the diversity that helped lead to the inventions that have lead the world to it's current stance. & don't u think Europe have just carved up the western hemisphere into territories?
@RavenBlaze Yeah, we do occasionally have problems with the French, btw thanks for buying Loissianna off of them. Still we are getting into hypotheticals and I think you have to remeber that Britian did become a liberal democracy similar to the US, or even more so as in cases of Freedom of the Press where we are slightly more liberal. Besides all of this we are getting into hypotheticals which really does nothing good.
@RavenBlaze Also i find it funny that you ssert Europe just carved up the wester hemisphere. First: we carved up more than your little Hemisphere :P And second, remeber what you did with the Indians and the Territories... the whole manifest destiny. Still all countries have thier dark times and i dont judge them on that, only on how they act now.
@AngelicBlade1000 *face palm for 2000-2008* ... well in colonial times many european nations had staked claim in the WH, I do not agree w/ the genocide of native people and well, most countries have a bloody history. But ultimately I agree it's what a nation is about in the present that really matters. I swear the USA is trying to fix things, the government is pretty corrupt. Anyway we get pretty fire-works on the 4th of July!
The point is however, which is probably your point also, LeagueofReason, that the overwhelming majority of believers DON'T have good reasons. If only those people believed who have a good reason to, religion would become a fringe phenomenon - as it should.
Are there any good reasons? Sure, plenty, it's just that almost nobody has them. A good reason to believe in god would be if he appeared to you and proved his existence beyond all doubt. That would justify one's faith. It may not be demonstable, but to the individual, it is a good reason.
Or if belief in god makes someone act better than he otherwise would, that would not be a good reason in the sense that it is justified, but I'd rather prefer such a person believing if they must.
Damn. I'll be having 'fuck the English' activities going on with friends and family all day. I might be able to catch the very beginning but then I'm off to warm up with the community band for our annual concert to spark nationalistic fervor and vigorous flag waving. Then it's off to the family barbecue. Victory over tyranny tastes like charred chicken flesh.
Noooo, I can't make it. Can you please, please, pretty please with sugar on top upload the entire show somewhere? I will die if I miss all of the three first shows.
Good reasons? There was a time when I would have said 'no'. But I think about my folks in their 80s. They've been religious all their lives and being elderly really sucks for them. I can tell they're afraid and worried. Their religion gives them hope. Even though I couldn't swallow it I wouldn't take that away from them. I suppose you could say the same for someone who's scared to death and their lives are a trainwreck. It helps them...maybe it's a delusion but i couldn't begrudge it to them.
We don't celebrate our "treachary to the British Empire" in the US, we celebrate our "treachery to the British Empire". Is "treachary" even how it's spelled in the UK? Anyways, I'll be celebrating pretty explosions and hopefully cake with strawberries and blueberries. ^.^
@jjmblue7 - its like when you say one word over and over and it starts looking weird. I know that the US started changing the spelling of things to show you guys were different to us here in the UK. One which always puzzles me is missing out words... so you'd say 'you should write me' - but we'd say 'you should write to me'.
The correct spelling is Treachery - i think its the same in US and UK english with this one...
@alittlebitofperil That, plus the influx of non-native english speakers being adopted into American society over the centuries, the language has evolved in a different direction than it did in Britain. Also, the US kept some English words that Britain abandoned, only to readopt later on, and vice versa. All in all, I think the distribution of the English language throughout former colonies and the changes its gone through based on specific regions is an excellent analogy of biological evolution.
@TechnomancerMorhion - Yeah, it is fascinating how language changes. I gave a book to my dad for xmas a couple of years ago called 'a plum in your mouth' - about how the english language has changed here in the UK over the years, and it includes how you guys got your pronounced 'R's and the Australians didn't - and that henry the 8th, though portrayed as having a 'queens english' accent in movies, had a broad Yorkshire accent in reality!
@TechnomancerMorhion: "the changes its gone through based on specific regions is an excellent analogy of biological evolution."
Its a fascinating subject, but linguistic change, like all cultural evolution, isnt truly analogous to biological evolution, since phylogenetic lineages remain permanently separate after diverging, whereas cultural products are always mixing, merging, recombining etc, as with the continuous trans-Atlantic exchanges between the mother country & its former colonies.

@CriticalAtheist 1.) It seemed implied. If I misunderstood THAT it's because you only used two words to make a point. 2.) But didn't you realize me saying you thought you were God was a figure of speech? 3.) Mindless arrogance is not a favorable trait. 4.) Oh, but I was just judging your comments!
5.) You clearly don't understand what a strawman is. 6.) It *is* clear enough when you use your words like a big boy. 7.) Your last comment has been marked as spam w/o a single click from me. I lol'd.

@cjc813 1. Well now you know. 2. Of course, when did I say otherwise? 3. I never said I was arrogant, you did. 4. Yeah, that's what I was doing. Read it all over again if you don't believe me. 5. Strawman-an argument that resembles mine but isn't. It's made so you can easily knock it down. i.e. saying I called you a creationist so you could 'correct me'. Claiming I did what you arrogantly did by judging my whole character based on a couple comments. 6 & 7 is childish wanking; no need to comment.

@CriticalAtheist
A)I misunderstood you. Not my fault. You used 2 words; I can't read minds. B)Our judgement of each other *is the same,* regardless of semantics. C)Difference is, I admit my wrong and you still attack. Were someone to tell me "I was wrong." I'd cut em some slack; honest mistake. But I'm not a self-righteous ass like you. Which has been my main point for some time now. No way that's a strawman. E) We're done. You're piss poor at arguing, and a pitiful excuse for a free-thinker.

I beg of you two things:

2) to put the name and creator's name down on credits or in the description; so I dont' have to keep bothering you haha.
Looking forward to the show.

@AngelicBlade1000 I'll give u that... but I don't really see how the UK could have held on to us, part of the reason we got independence was b/c u guys had ur hands full with the French & all the other stuff going on in Europe at that time. Beside if the USA had not become independent it might not have the diversity that helped lead to the inventions that have lead the world to it's current stance. & don't u think Europe have just carved up the western hemisphere into territories?
RavenBlaze 1 year ago
@RavenBlaze Yeah, we do occasionally have problems with the French, btw thanks for buying Loissianna off of them. Still we are getting into hypotheticals and I think you have to remeber that Britian did become a liberal democracy similar to the US, or even more so as in cases of Freedom of the Press where we are slightly more liberal. Besides all of this we are getting into hypotheticals which really does nothing good.
AngelicBlade1000 1 year ago
@RavenBlaze Also i find it funny that you ssert Europe just carved up the wester hemisphere. First: we carved up more than your little Hemisphere :P And second, remeber what you did with the Indians and the Territories... the whole manifest destiny. Still all countries have thier dark times and i dont judge them on that, only on how they act now.
AngelicBlade1000 1 year ago
@AngelicBlade1000 *face palm for 2000-2008* ... well in colonial times many european nations had staked claim in the WH, I do not agree w/ the genocide of native people and well, most countries have a bloody history. But ultimately I agree it's what a nation is about in the present that really matters. I swear the USA is trying to fix things, the government is pretty corrupt. Anyway we get pretty fire-works on the 4th of July!

The point is however, which is probably your point also, LeagueofReason, that the overwhelming majority of believers DON'T have good reasons. If only those people believed who have a good reason to, religion would become a fringe phenomenon - as it should.
KeyserX 1 year ago
Are there any good reasons? Sure, plenty, it's just that almost nobody has them. A good reason to believe in god would be if he appeared to you and proved his existence beyond all doubt. That would justify one's faith. It may not be demonstable, but to the individual, it is a good reason.
Or if belief in god makes someone act better than he otherwise would, that would not be a good reason in the sense that it is justified, but I'd rather prefer such a person believing if they must.

Good reasons? There was a time when I would have said 'no'. But I think about my folks in their 80s. They've been religious all their lives and being elderly really sucks for them. I can tell they're afraid and worried. Their religion gives them hope. Even though I couldn't swallow it I wouldn't take that away from them. I suppose you could say the same for someone who's scared to death and their lives are a trainwreck. It helps them...maybe it's a delusion but i couldn't begrudge it to them.

We don't celebrate our "treachary to the British Empire" in the US, we celebrate our "treachery to the British Empire". Is "treachary" even how it's spelled in the UK? Anyways, I'll be celebrating pretty explosions and hopefully cake with strawberries and blueberries. ^.^
jjmblue7 1 year ago
@jjmblue7 - its like when you say one word over and over and it starts looking weird. I know that the US started changing the spelling of things to show you guys were different to us here in the UK. One which always puzzles me is missing out words... so you'd say 'you should write me' - but we'd say 'you should write to me'.
The correct spelling is Treachery - i think its the same in US and UK english with this one...
alittlebitofperil 1 year ago
@alittlebitofperil That, plus the influx of non-native english speakers being adopted into American society over the centuries, the language has evolved in a different direction than it did in Britain. Also, the US kept some English words that Britain abandoned, only to readopt later on, and vice versa. All in all, I think the distribution of the English language throughout former colonies and the changes its gone through based on specific regions is an excellent analogy of biological evolution.
TechnomancerMorhion 1 year ago
@TechnomancerMorhion - Yeah, it is fascinating how language changes. I gave a book to my dad for xmas a couple of years ago called 'a plum in your mouth' - about how the english language has changed here in the UK over the years, and it includes how you guys got your pronounced 'R's and the Australians didn't - and that henry the 8th, though portrayed as having a 'queens english' accent in movies, had a broad Yorkshire accent in reality!
alittlebitofperil 1 year ago
@TechnomancerMorhion: "the changes its gone through based on specific regions is an excellent analogy of biological evolution."
Its a fascinating subject, but linguistic change, like all cultural evolution, isnt truly analogous to biological evolution, since phylogenetic lineages remain permanently separate after diverging, whereas cultural products are always mixing, merging, recombining etc, as with the continuous trans-Atlantic exchanges between the mother country & its former colonies.
