I haven't used reddit regular since they stopped allowing 3rd party apps. Reddit is Fun was a better app than theirs so they had a hissy fit and blocked other apps. It's a cesspool of trash, filth, and perversion.

Voting is deliberate consent to the outcome, explicitly granting your sanction to the status quo and the system of threats and force against you and others that back it up.

It is difficult to argue against the injustices stemming from the people ruling over you when you have participated in and perpetuated the very thing that gives them oxygen.

Whatever begins to exist has a cause for its existence.

The universe began to exist (supposedly debatable).

Therefore, the universe has a cause for its existence.

For me, God is best expressed as a verb. God was. God is. God will.

Okay but, tabs use less memory and that gives the program a smaller file size which makes it quicker to download

New season of Rick & Morty is alright - the plots are still edgy. But darned if the new Rick voice actor isn't disappointing. Feels like Rick has lost all of his eccentric mannerisms.

If someone offered you 1 bitcoin for $4,000 you’d say yes in a heartbeat right?

Well bitcoin is likely to trade at 400k in the near future and people are offering you 1 for $40,000 right now.

Same thing.

Both work.

There is no opting out of economics and economic choice except through death. You may not like specific institutions such as private property or labor, but choosing to not engage in them simply excludes you from larger, more productive circles of economic activity. If you are alive and you strive to remain alive, you are bound to seek to survive through the tools of economizing action. Everyone engages in economizing acts every day of their lives without having to learn economics. But learning economics can help the mind consciously understand the importance of acts in which it engages, and how complex structures and institutions emerge from them. While learning economics is not necessary for economizing, which is a natural function of our reason, it is necessary for the fostering and survival of an extended market order in which humans are able to economize freely, cooperate with one another, and prosper. Individuals are capable of engaging in market transactions but can lose sight of their importance, resulting in political structures that suppress this type of economic action, with devastating consequences.

I watched the entirety of the Succession show, along with my husband. We don’t watch many shows but we watched this one.

The acting was amazing. The characters were memorable. But ultimately it just didn’t amount to much. In some sense that was kind of the point, but still.

You pointed to someone else instead of addressing my points, and also labeled my argument as uneducated. What else is someone to conclude?

I’ve listened to enough of Hitchen’s to know his arguments are not particularly persuasive, which is why I pointed out Alex O’connor as a better suggestion.

If you have been reading about this matter for decades and your first thought is go point to Hitchens then yes this discussion is pointless, and so is life ultimately and objectively if there is no God.

You’re free to label my observations of an atheist’s reality as uneducated, but I’m not sure how you arrived at that since by your own admission you’re uneducated yourself.

People have been convincingly refuting Hitchens for decades. Someone like Alex O’connor would have been a better suggestion imo, but I guess Hitchens is quasi famous, so people think of him first I suppose.

Since we are giving suggestions check out “I don’t have enough faith to be an atheist” or “stealing from god” by Frank Turek

I said atheism.

There are many reasons. One of them being the practice of adopting aspects/teachings of the bible to shape their morality and definition of good vs evil without actually giving the bible any credit because surely human kind would have arrived to those conclusions with or without God.

Humans are wired to worship something. If it’s not our creator then it will be the environment, money, idols, ourselves, etc.

More recently some of these people seriously entertain simulation theory, but the prospect of a God that created everything is a bridge too far.

Going through life knowing that nothing matters because eventually everyone will become worm food has to be quite depressing. No wonder ppl need to be distracted 24/7 otherwise they would have to wrestle with that reality day in and day out.

Love Mark Moss, but he fumbled the ball on the conversation about religion with nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx hard to watch.

The point I think he wanted to make was that atheist’s moral code is made up by each individual since what is good vs evil is subjective with that worldview.

Gotta love atheists that give absolutely 0 credit to religion/God on helping shape their own moral code.

nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx have Michael Knowles on your show, he can properly explain the silliness of atheism.

Like many paradigm breaking discoveries, #Bitcoin likely enforces the world YOU already see.

Christians think it reflects Christianity. Atheists think it reflects atheism. Agnostics think it reflects agnosticism.

Stay genuinely ready to learn from others, and beware that the most unhelpfully dogmatic groups are often the most vocal & confident.
