@ItsKevinHoranTime Some of us 'idiots' have apparently read History books:

The term, "Agnosticism" was coined by T. H. Huxley in 1869 as a method, the essence of which lies in the vigorous application of a single principle. Positively the principle may be expressed as, in matters of intellect, f...

@DrMontague Yup, I think we are in agreement. I was speaking in support of secular morality - that it matters to us is sufficient, no cosmic significance is demanded before we care about things that affect us.

The Theist has to prove their God exists, you have the burden of proof. I merely hold the parsimonious position until some theist can prove at least one of the tens of thousands of DIFFERENT 'Gods' which theists have proposed, actually exists. I also don't believe in leprechauns, invisible pink...

@zadeh79 illusion here means 'not what it appears to be' (I see others have pointed this out as well). I really cannot explain fully in a youtube comment. But I'll give you some ideas to research.

One thing brains do is perform bayesian inference functions, it also learns, and calculates predi...

@sociopathicpplkillr I'll take that challenge - I go into the ground or get burned to ashes and that is that. Perhaps my offspring continue my genetic line and hopefully people will think of me for a while. There is VERY strong evidence for my beliefs.

Now please produce evidence for yours.

@DonJay777 I will let Elijah himself speak to you:

Elijah mocked them and said, “Call out with a loud voice, for he is a god; either he is occupied or gone aside, or is on a journey, or perhaps he is asleep and needs to be awakened.”

If your god can't be bothered to answer his own challenge th...

How to lose all credibility in an argument about any of the thousands of gods - claim the nonbeliever in that god is angry at that god. Does it get any more fatuous? Bleh, that's all I can watch.

@MMMMMMMMMMMikey I understand your anger, applaud your unflinching compassion for the victim, but I again disagree with the desire for violence and vengeance which is in no way justice. Him getting away with it isn't justice either but that is our society failing our people. perhaps we should a...

@bgsepp If nearly untouchable people were destroying your country, committing atrocities on your dime, stealing your wealth, what would you do? I would really like to know how you would handle such a situation. Violence or peaceful protest?

@sinprelic neuronal processes are not well enough understood to declare there are no quantum effects involved, but there are already hints to the contrary (e.g., exocytosis of boutons). There is little evidence for whole brain quantum coherence but that is not required for there to be critical q...

"Texas Judge William Adams won't face criminal charges, statute of limitations expired say police"

Sad. I hope you find some peace Hillary. Nobody deserves to be treated that way.

Christians who cannot fathom why a human being would be disinclined towards violence and suffering without their make-believe nonsense behind it just flat out astonish me.

Really? REALLY? If you honestly cannot understand it then you are a psychopath - and if you darn well know the answer and...

Could WLC be more duplicitous if he tried? I don't think so. Hitchens was extremely CLEAR, to name a moral action he COULD NOT take that a person of faith COULD do.

Hitchens COULD give money to religious charities. Hitchens COULD say "Father forgive them". And more importantly, IF you can P...

@killer66250 Take your own advice and read up on People v. Santorelli, which restricts the applicability of § 245.01. The Court of Appeals of New York ruled in 1992 that exposure of a bare female breast violates this law only when it takes place in a commercial context.

It's not a zero-sum game at all - the dice are loaded. The wealthy essentially print money. The bankers take $10 in from you and print (electronically now) $90 to loan out $100, and get $200 in return. It's called fractional reserve banking. It SUCKS the money out of the poorest and gives it ...

@csbair agreed - just sharing one relevant paper on one point - I honestly lost interest after that

@TheTirvin18 Can you find a SINGLE NT scholar in the past 100 years that will claim every book of the Bible was written by the person the Church claimed? Have you never heard the term pseudepigrapha? Hint: Pseudepigrapha means "we lied about who wrote this".

Seems you haven't done your homewo...

@apekillssnake He lied about what Rebecca said to try to make his point & now you are both throwing up Red Herrings to try to distract.

As for the baby noises, well: Ridicule is the only weapon which can be used against unintelligible propositions ~ Jefferson

You are too wound up in your delu...
