There's nothing in there that refutes my argument.

the ability to act at one's own discretion. (Google) Seems a fair definition... Don't you think?

Noted you didn't tag this on 'anarchism'. They might have been cross I suppose... If there's no free will, it makes the idea of self-determination a mental illness. Chuckle.

So you trot out the old strawman fallacy... Elephant in the garage? Really? Sigh... All the best then, catch you later. :)

Offering money to a girl to become a prostitute is not theft, and it's her choice if she agrees, but it's arguably immoral. What's her loss, something she would have given away for free anyway? Is it her

If there is no absolute morality, then are you suggesting that if you were sold as a sex-slave at the age of 7, that would have been be ok? In which case(s) would child-sex-slavery be acceptable, or beneficial

Most people don't do logic. They rationalise instead, and imagine they're 'thinking'. It's sad and pitiful, and dangerous. I like your thinking. Beliefs and faith are for lost-sheep. Only science (as in

But you have 0% proof of acausality. Show me any actual proof of no-mechanism. You can't. It's logically impossible. Think about it, it may take some time, it took me a few years. There can be no proof

Hi @cryptosteem, How does having the death-sentence for apostasy encourage science?

I don't have a login for that. Funnily enough... The move to agriculture from hunter-gatherer did cause a (big) drop in life expectancy, and they use those numbers: Also the stats are done "from

But how do you prove there is no underlying mechanism? Science is still all about proof right? They didn't move those goalposts too? As the great prophet Stevie Wonder said: When you believe in things

Haha. Indeed... The only way I can imagine it really working is in a world full of much better educated people. With decent training, 99% of people would flourish. But today's crop of whiney, infantile,

"Modern science", and science as actual personal knowledge are obviously two different things... I love science, but despair over modern-science. If you're suggesting that psychic phenomena(?)

So basically, you take everything the bible says..throw it out the window...make up some stuff...and call it a day. No, that's what you're doing. I'm working on the what the Bible actually says. It's you

I see, thanks for clarifying that.

Hi @melek (no reply option on your post below...) Why would i need Mauro Biglini ... Because you seem to say that Elohim means God, when it actually means 'the gods', plural. I know the trad explanation

Sure. Lots of info about the Taino, for example: "Although a peaceful people, the Taino did not simply sit around waiting for the Spaniards to bring about their destruction."... If you don't

There is a logical fallacy: "absence of evidence is not evidence of absence" Can you offer any proof that there is no underlying causality? The example I just gave about decay rates strongly

If radioactive decay is 'random', then how can we explain the fact that it varies during the course of a year?

Hi @madmovond, are you saying that you think science and superstition are compatible? I think science is absolutely about black and white. It's about facts, right & wrong, true & false... That's
