Yes I think I agree with you, O grand wizard. I don't give credence to a priori arguments for the existence of anything else, why do I for the existence of god?
I assure you, if you lived in the good ol' USA, you wouldn't get "bored" of the religion debat. Especialy if your trying to send yor kids to a Texas highschool.
I'm not saying I still won't criticise religion - I still consider it in all its myriad forms to be chronically backwards, retarding of the human spirit and dangerously dogmatic - but I will categorically *not* debate the subject anymore. If any folk of religious persuasion wish to defend their beliefs to me then they can present their evidence for criticism, nothing else will be accepted; not philosophy nor theology nor personal revelation. That shit has got old.
Her in America we are in the middle of a massive misinformation campaign by what apears to be the religious right. It's getting pretty fuckin' scary too, with their guns and gods. The corosion of reason and logic is, I think, is a manifestation of the lack of critical thinking that religion imposes on our society. Frustrating, for me? yes, boring? No. There is alot of hate in my country right now. :(
dear wizard i mean harp as in countries manipulating the weather, heard about it on the radio, apparently a few are playing god if you pardon the expression thanks for replying to my question, take care big love neenoid friend of mkb.
That sounds a little crazy. I mean, you can make clouds rain by dusting them with silver iodide from a plane but beyond that, how exactly would you go about manipulating the weather? I suppose you could use satellites with powerful enough microwave emitters to warm up secions of the earth and thus gain some small measure of control over wind-patterns, but those don't currently exist and I'm not sure they would work even if they did. Maybe there's something to it, but I have doubts.
Wait, MOTHER, are you talking about the HAARP project? I thought that was experimenting with new forms of broadcasting via manipulating the stratosphere?
if you're bored with the whole atheist thing, might I suggest exploring statism versus anti-statism. I too am bored with atheism, but am learning quite a lot on issues concerning the state and economics.
Obama has a solution to solving climate change, It's called cap and Trade, all you have to do is tax people and you'll help save the planet....... sounds like a good idea dosent it.......
Harp, as in the musical instrument? One of my teachers in primary school used to play one
Climate change... well I think the general concensus ATM is that it probably is a result of human influence on the environment and clearly something should be done about it. Ufortunately the moneyed interests have too great a stake in all the things that are causing climate change for anything substantial to actually happen. Money doesn't make the world go round, but it may make it grind to a halt one day.
It's the idea that because logical absolutes exist as conceptual entities they need god to concieve of them. And apparently purely mechanistic forces can't account for them for some reason. It's bollocks, really.
Your hair reminds me of Robert Plant

I SO agree. The tedium of the debate and the
ferocious intractability of the opponent is..... tedious.
I did experience some guilt for my disinterest when
I heard about that new book, The Family, about
sinister fundamentalist government control.
But the cuntbags ARE a trial.
