Ah no....that isn't at all what I said you flipped the script. I'm saying you are born without religious beliefs and unless infected with it you most likely would remain as such. That was the basis of the thought experiment. Raise the kids without exposure teach them what we have learned to...

It's just a thought experiment based on the idea if you left humans alone they would assign supernatural agency to anything outside their understanding. That is why the process involved leaving out mentioning religious terminology. He seemed to believe even if we never exposed them to this...

Thinking about this a little more and I still can't buy it. Say we had 30 newborns and we raised them never using terms like religion or atheism gave them a education based on current knowledge. When we reach the part where we say it's a singularly and they ask what's that and we say we don't...

What do you mean by left alone? Atheism is not unnatural it's what you are when you're born, no beliefs required. My kids weren't exposed and guess what? Now their children are growing up and only 1 of the 4 has been exposed and that 1 likes the idea of eternal life, not having to say goodbye...

The Trek is just 50's and early 60's westerns on a different frontier with beam weapons vs projectile weapons. If you're older and grew up watching tv during this time period you recognize the scripts right away the costumes, makeup and props are all that's changed. Humans have no history of...

Babies are born not knowing religion they have to be infected with whatever the religious tenets their guardians prefer. Religious beliefs for the most part are local not global, just try and count the differences in each groups claims and that's just for Christians. So yeah convincing them...

Yes weakest force but not necessarily weak.

Which atheist did this? Which atheist church did they say you should attend? They didn't push any of that poly atheism on you did they, damn bastards trying delegitimize the mono atheistic church. Atheist / no belief. Nothing to follow no magical texts, dogmas, or rituals. So what...

If you call the shit going on in this world in the name of religion civilized then what is your definition civilized.

To me the threat is eternal life. I really don't think people think this through. In thirty trillion years you'll still be a youngster with your whole life ahead of you. But there is no light from which you could read a good book if you haven't already read everything ever published. In...

god = lazy

I'd like them to explain why the flood, couldn't the magic man just poof the humans out of existence. That would have left all the critters alone and no need for a boat. The added benefit would be no need to explain the absence of evidence of a world wide flood or where did all that water go?

I have 2 that bug me. 1) You can't trust science because it's the word of man, man is flawed and can't be trusted since science is mans invention it's untrustworthy. Ah... who told them about god? 2) Freewill. Apparently you have free will to do harm to others but those being harmed don't...

Is that the one that portrays atheists as nothing more the criminals lacking any morality or decency. Watched the trailer to that one in the end the zombies won.

Since I'm a non believer could you reference the help you stated that non believers received along with the "various ways" that this works? Do I have too fill out paperwork or something to claim my benefits. Leaving the non existent alone, how would one go about doing that? The importance of...

A better test of gravity is string a rope between two real tall buildings say thirty stories up. Now climb out on that rope between the two buildings and hang there by one hand while holding the paper clip in the other hand for several hours. How long before you are forced to concede the paper...

First Take rate it 1/10 Suppose to be a show debating current sports topics. Not much debating, mostly just contrasting opinions.

Doubt it. I know the stereotype is that stoners are lazy and uninquisitive but that's just bullshit. Now if you said what was he drinking then you would be right there. It's obviously the Kool-Aid.

I was up to 125mcg/h fentanyl and 30 mg oxycodone for break through plus lyrica for neuropathy. The lyrica made me sucidel the opiates made shitting almost as painful as the symptoms being treated. Prednisone and plauquenil for RA, fuck what a cluster fuck that was, don't even remember the...
