@georgiadrew

many people waste their entire lives without the God that does exist and the religion that is mighty real. now that's really sad.

I'm sorry, I couldn' help that. But honestly, do remember: if they are not into the real thing, well, w/o God, your atheist life is just as much a sad waste as anyone's.

@Jcilt Actually Catholics don't "want" the whole truth... they HAVE it.

awsome

Nuns were a lot cooler when they looked less like civilians and more like traditional nuns. This is a bold and pretty cutting edge commercial.

@watchful38 God Bless you for what you have done with your life:) I would like to recommend a book to you called "The prison Angel" it is a wonderful read about an extraordinary Nun.

@donjojohannes The reason I have my own purposes, is because I get a sense of achievement and satisfaction out of following them. You're obviously not an idiot, But being an atheist doesn't simply mean a pointless existence of suffering. I don't believe in God, but that doesn't mean I don't enjoy life, and it doesn't mean I don't do any good in my existence.

I don't believe, But I also don't need God for comfort and happiness. I'm happy as I am.

@Hempelsparadox Agreed. Free will isn't random. I'm a "dualist" (obviously) and while I affirm true freedom, I do not hold that the will acts randomly or arbitrarily - rather it does act for some perceived good (as understood by the rational faculty). However: materialists hold that a choice is nothing but a particular state of material parts being caused by material causes (as there are no other). As for me the dualist. I make rational judgements and act (rationally but freely)

[Hempelsparadox]

@donjojohannes Free will isn't random, I know that. I can't make truly random decisions, but the decisions I make are still of my own will, whether I have no control over it or not

But you know it really doesn't matter, because you're in the same boat as me. Your decisions are not special because you were told to by a book. You could say the same thing about Allah and it'd make just as much sense.

My life isn't pointless because I can't make random decisions anyway.

@Hempelsparadox It seems I cannot communicate the fundamental problem that your position suffers from or you are unable to see it. I do not contest how the brain functions. This is not a "science" question. My points are: 1. monist materialism is incompatible with free will, because its very definition implies only material and no true agent causality. 2. if there is no free will, there is no choice but in appearance > and this leads us to the problem of your first comment.

[Hempelsparadox]

Yes the brain is what we use to make decisions, and is how we are able to think. Our thoughts don't come from some supernatural core. If you had the technology, you could actually see the impulses in a persons head as they think and make decisions. I don't know what you have a phd in, but you clearly didn't pay attention in science.

We actually have early technology to scan the brain, and have an understanding of the brain today. Not that you'd actually care to look at evidence.

[donjojohannes]

@Hempelsparadox hilarious. I leave you to study the materialist position, as you seemingly need to read up on it. Hmm, maybe you also believe that thought "emerges" from physical impulses, as Dawkins puts it? Ha ha, whatever "emerges" means in a true materialist sense....you folks are too funny. Hiding your dualism behind serious faces saying monist materialism. Well I have a PhD in this, but come on, at least back up your "materialism" with google before going on to insult people on youtube
