  • lock-ness.

  • @a10fjet RockNES

  • He didn't even mention Islam, how PC.

  • @Dadutta Dawkins explains, I believe it's in the God delusion, that he focuses on Christianity because that's what he was brought up with. It's the religion he is most familiar with.

  • @iorixs Yes, we'd be way better off wasting our lives with 2000 year old scripture and trying to impress a childish and most likely fictional god. There may be a god, but it's not Yahweh. And look at you, putting yourself above atheists while pretending to look down at them. I'd rather be a godless atheist(a redundant term) than an idiotic, selfish, shallow and bigoted Christian.

  • until science can come up with proof of how the universe was made and why we are here (both the very deepest of questions) i'll stick with believing that a god or god like creator put us here

    this isnt to say that im a god loving loon, but who really knows why we're here? after all we could be the equivalent of a culture of bacteria in a Petri dish.

    the point is WE DONT KNOW so it cannot be ruled out

  • @urantivirus rockman on NES? i love that game.

  • Playing 1.40-1.50 over and over ! :D Hilarious

  • Health scare has been around for a while. In the 70's they were doing it with vaccines. It is not the internet, it is journalism. The nature of The Story. I don't have the answer to human belief needs, but it is a part of humanity, and no matter what we do, those things will be circulated through any mediums we use. Because it is human.

  • cont'd. Personally, I realize that morality has absolutely no factual basis, or that life has absolutely no meaning. But that's not how I choose to view either. I have purposefully taught myself that life is more wondorous than simple biochemistry or physics. If that makes me deluded or wrong, then so be it. But it also makes life much more meaningful and enjoyable, and I think that is much more important that being "right".

  • My problem with science is that it seeks to explain even that which might be better left unexplained. And I don't mean religion, astrology or other superstition which we can do well without.

    As we unlock the secrets of life, we strip ourselves of meaning. We become robots at our bodies' mercy, who are victims of their surroundings. Free will evaporates, taking with it all responsibility and identity.

    Science isn't a poet, but an interpreter. In some cases, it's closer to explaining a joke.

  • steel structures dont melt from a fucking petrol fire.
