One word comes to mind... bigot.
It made me think of you when I was using that word in a post
on another thread when I was describing the Nazis. You say
you're open to suggestion but you wouldn't believe that God
were real if he were standing right in front of you if you couldn't
touch or feel or smell him. You can't tell me that you're open for
suggestion and me believe it with the way you have been
talking this whole time. But whatever.
Don't use words like bigot, you remind me you're an American by saying that (dunno why). I am open to suggestion, I'm just not going to be in a rush to believe in every dick and harry story. I try to see both sides of an argument, but religion doesn't really have one except "you're not quite sure how we're created so God must be real".
I'm not impressed but I'm also not the least bit emotionally moved by your comments and arguements because I have my own beliefs and they cannot be proven wrong and I have no doubt that one day I will know the answers.
Nah, I don't think in our life time we're going to figure it out. Anyway was that supposed to be an insult? Well, I'm not impressed either, you either repeat stuff out of the bible or well, I'm not quite sure, you're posts are long but...
I believe things exist beyond our comprehension and that there and that there are things in this universe that we will never hear or know of and never experience and probably wouldn't even have the capability to understand. I don't doubt that there really are aliens and there probably are other universes.
And? I don't think we will understand somethings now but I wouldn't under estimate our future generations.
I also believe that the macrocosm deserves more credit than
what it is given. We have learned to take so many things for
granted and science seems to be turning into a religin itself.
More and more people are looking to science for an answer
instead of their own hearts and minds and common sense
and morals.
How can you look into to your heart, and how will it give you a answer? Morals won't give answers either. Unless you can come up with a theory better than the scientifc one don't call it a religion.
all you want but if mankind is so damn smart then why after all these centuries are we not living on other planets yet? Why are we not visiting other galaxies? Why do we still not know all the secrets of the universe? We're not as smart as we tell ourselves. We have had the idea to be elsewhere and doing the impossible since the beginning of time and have been doing incredible things but humans always put themselves on a pedastool and think they are the greatest thing and will continue to do so until we bring about our own end.
We will think we're smart until we find a species smarter than us. Centuries isn't a very long time you know, and we have gotten very far in the limited time we've been here.
We respect nothing. We've been told to look out for #1 but we don't even respect ourself but if someone else disrespects then there's a bullet in their head. People are so screwed up
People are screwed up to your standard, people are screwed up to peoples standards. If we had no respect for anything than why are we always trying to protect endangered species and why do we care about some of our species so much?
How is science going to save us on the days of reconsile and revelation? How is it going to save us from something that we cannot touch but can touch us?
Lke what? How is religion going to save us from anything? At least science can protect us from so many things.
First of all you say we have the idea to do the 'impossible' but if it is realy impossible then how would we do it. What else have we got to compare our selves with, there is no proof of other life any where else and if so its the smallest thing. We only have animals to compare our selves too and we obviously win that. I dont we will bring our own end because we are not that stupid and there are many other things which will probably kill us all before we do.
We might well bring our own destruction, with nukes but when we start going into dpace the chances of that will get lower and lower.
I have been saying all along that every bit of this conversation is
nothing more than opinion whereas you have not even began to
concede that fact. It's starting to piss me off that you continue to
try and shove this nonsense at me and expect me to step in line.
What are you getting out of this? Acknowledge
that none of this is either wrong nor correct
I wouldn't expect anyone as stuborn as you would look at the oppositions side and realise its got a lot less holes in it. They have to be either correct or wrong, you meant to say "none has been proven to be correct or not correct"
As far as Nasa trying to make Mars a liveable environment, it's about bloody time.
The idea has been there for relatively not long but it isn't anything new, it's called teraforming btw.
And as far as us not knowing all the secrets of the universe,
no shit it's a secret, Sherlock. But because you answered that
one in such a way that does not disaccord with the fact that
there may be unexplained phenomenon, do you believe that
not everything can be broken down and explained by science?
There not really secrets, who have they been kept by? It's just something we don't know yet, by saying it's a secret implies that someone already knew about it, aliens? Well not every thing can be explained by science, there’s psychology or is that a branch of science?
By saying 'doing the impossible', I mean that these ideas
were impossible the years before we had the tools to pull off
such feats. And wow lol, you really need to look outside the
boundaries and stop looking at what there is around you and
start looking and what there can be. How old are you? You're
starting to sound like a middle-aged bum with nothing left to
live for. It's depressing. But then again, you don't seem to
comprehend what I'm saying very well most of the time.
So you must be a teenager who watches too much tv lol.
I know what you mean by doing the impossible. I know black personally, and he’s pretty smart for his age. You sound like a gullible person, that when you talk about science you sound like a bad hypocrite. How are you looking outside the boundaries you just well, ask questions that so many people have asked before you. You seem like a typical Christian and good luck with that, but you’re the wrong person to be calling anyone here blind.
About your last paragraph, I assume that you’re talking about that respect and violence thing, let me remind you that we live in a different country and the people here act very differently.
