Stop proving our point if ur not willing to accept it.Zeviander

Like ur almost 100% certain that Science has all the answers and if not, you'll just sit and wait for them instead of thinking for urself?

I'm not troll, lots of others posters can confirm that. TXT Language was to prove that ur are still using the words RIGHT and WRONG because u think that's my intention, when I have said several times now it isn't.

I give up. U have resorted to insults and name calling because u are defensive. Come back when you want to try to understand what we are trying to explain.

You're not willing to look or think beyond what you've been told, so yes pretty much.sandbox3d

Mr.Ranger I have a question.

Go troll somewhere else, we were having a nice conversation but had to ruin it. It's understandable this conversation may go above ur head, and that u need to resort to empty insults to be part of it, but trust me.... contributing something worthwhile reading is so much better.FelipeInside

Here to help Gamespot users for any forum related queries.

Please oblige by your duties.

So can I ask you a question.

Next time try to stay respectful with people with different points of view, or else you will never get respect urself.FelipeInside

What part? FelipeInside

your entire argument in this thread.

[QUOTE="Zeviander"] Now I can be almost 100% certain you are a troll. Devolving to txt language pretty much seals it.Ace6301

Like ur almost 100% certain that Science has all the answers and if not, you'll just sit and wait for them instead of thinking for urself?

Like I never have.

It won't. The Human Race will be extinct before Science knows 100% everything about the Universe and beyond.

Yes, and what's wrong with talking about these theories? My point has ALWAYS been that I never put these theories on the same level as science, just theories about things science can't explain or doesn't have the evidence. Nothing wrong with thinking about them.

[QUOTE="FelipeInside"] Why would I care if I got your respect? I respect your right to hold whatever point of view you want. I've already said that isn't the same as respecting the point of view.Zeviander

Human babies? From Female Humans with the help of Male Sperm. Now remember, I might be a Ranger but I don't have ALL the answers, although I'll do my best to answer them.FelipeInside

We are saying that talking about them is 100% useless. Whatever you come up with has no bearing on reality or anyone else but yourself. The way you word your sentences and arguments points that we should respect your ideas and not criticize them. You are welcome to believe whatever you wish, and I have every right to call those believes illogical and baseless.

Why bring them up at all if you have no reason or evidence to believe them? I can have a dream or vision that jesus appeared to be, and so can you. If you said you had one of these visions, I have no real reason to question you did have one...but it doesn't do anything to make me think it's real or believe in your position. It's just heresay and random thoughts that only apply to the person claiming them. That makes it an empty useless statement.

I just wanted a personal theory from you and u never gave me one. FelipeInside

[QUOTE="FelipeInside"]I just wanted a personal theory from you and u never gave me one. Zeviander

Someone caught this act on film! :O

This isn't intended to start an arguement between theists and atheists. I just want to know, from atheists, what their thoughts are on certain things.

1. Do you think the Ark of the Covenant ever existed, regardless of whether or not it had powers? No

2. Do you think Jesus ever existed? Yes, and he was a great man

3. Do you think a Moses ever existed? I mean, the exodus happened, but whether or not they were led by Moses is up for date. kinda

4. Do you look down on theists? Kinda, most of them mean well

5. Do you disagree with organized religion? Yes

6. Have you ever voted Republican? Hell no

7. Did "Noah's Flood" ever happen? Global, regional, local scale whatever. Can't say

8. Would you became a Christian in the event of the second coming of Jesus? Or Jewish if a new messiah (proven) would come? No, too proud. Its alread too late, I rather stick to my beliefs then use Jesus to be "saved"

9. Anything you would like to add. I like food?

like the comic I posted earlier, we look at the world and draw conclusions based on the facts we uncover and we want them to be proven false if possible in order to gain better knowledge.

I want, in my life, to know as many true things as possible and as few false things as possible. Starting with the conclusion and looking for facts to support the conclusion is a horrible way to look for the truth. I don't care what's "fun", I care what is real. Noah's Ark is 'fun' to some people, to reality, it's theistic fan fiction.

Listening to many many many hours of lectures by philosophers and physicists has given me an unmeasurable amount of fascination and wodner to the world I live in that random assumptions I can make up will never get me. Reality is amazing in itself and the scientific process of constantly trying to prove yourself wrong to uncover greater truths is more fun to me.

What's the point of discussing a scientific theory if it's been tested and proven 100%. FelipeInside

[QUOTE="FelipeInside"] But wheres the fun in that? What's the point of discussing a scientific theory if it's been tested and proven 100%. There is nothing to talk about, it's fact. Discussing and coming up with theories about things that science CAN'T explain, well....that to me is endless fun and debates, but to you it's pointless. Sorry if I word my sentences in that way, it isn't my intention. I am open to theories from every corner, I love to learn about them.FelipeInside

Do I think about them? For a few moments possibly, but they have no bearing on anything until real testable and observable science has a say on it. Example: What caused/came before the big bang is such a mindfvck for science (because the laws of physics don't apply before it occured) that I'd rather listen to theoretical physicists and their lectures than pull stuff out of my ass. They are the one who have the right to provide serious hyptheses (that can be tested)

That article is mostly proof as science disproving stupid ideas.

http://science.discovery.com/top-ten/2009/science-mistakes/science-mistakes.html Google is full of those articles, but like I said countless times before, u are concentrating on the wrong thing. I DON'T CARE IF SCIENCE HAS BEEN WRONG OR NOT.FelipeInside

[QUOTE="Ace6301"][QUOTE="FelipeInside"] That's good, and I respect that you want to know as much as possible, and as few false things as possible. Now, for what you DON'T know, and never will. Don't you even think about those things?FelipeInside

they cannot be applied in any way.

They stimulate the mind like JK Rowling stimulated hers in writing Harry Potter. It's art-like creativity, not something you can apply to life's major questions and science. Have an awesome idea about alien civilizations? Cool, write a sci-fi book, don't compare it to actual scientific theory

It's not wasting precious time to think outside the box either.FelipeInside
