  • 3:47 Great quote.

  • @Robbos

    I guess it all really comes down to Pessimism vs Optimism.

    I'm optimistic. Ergo, I am Hindu

  • @Robbos the reason not hope is that the sort of hope your talking about blinds us to reality. hope is a blind fold that comforts us because it prevonts us from seeing that brick wall our civlisation is runing towards. i always felt Prokhor was being sarcastic there. sarcastic about science and religion at the same time just in one little quote thats Alpha Centauri for you

  • "Begin with a function of arbitrary complexity. Feed it values, "sense data". Then, take your result, square it, and feed it back into your original function, adding a new set of sense data. Continue to feed your results back into the original function ad infinitum. What do you have? the fundamental principle of human consciousness." - WOW

  • the earthen dude abides

  • @RandomString I feel like "Now We Are Alone" was probably an early, loftier effort. A scientist believing he knows everything. But later, having "tasted the fruit", he sees he's just begun learning. That's my take on it.

  • So what is the earlier book: "Now we are alone" or "For i have tasted the fruit"?

  • @Alignn i do see your point

  • @frederikIII

    Huh? No, she was saying that it was a mystery that the universe existed at all if there is a god, not that it was a mystery that it had evil in it. In no way did she imply that the imperfectness of the universe proved the non-existence of god.

  • @frederikIII Exactly, who would have thought a religious zealot (albeit fictional) could manage to prove the non-existence of god.
