    Gravitationalists!!

    Personally, I think that such a lesson should take place on the edge of a very high cliff and there should be an in-class demonstration in which a snarky student should volunteer to disprove gravity...

    Gravitationalists!!

    Just why is that feasible? Are you suggesting that god is pushing everything toward the ground or something? Seems like a lot of work to me.

    Define "Inhuman"

    It's an interesting perspective, Cobbles. I wonder what Zambardo or Stephen think about terrorists and spies etc who are obviously manipulated by the orgs they represent. Do not such people also require an illusion of invulnerability in order to be manipulated? Is such an illusion required of...

    Fact and Fiction

    From The Mind's Past (Michael Gazzaniga - Neuroscientist) "There is a special device in the left brain, which I call the interpreter, that carries out one more activity upon completion of zillions of automatic brain processes. the interpreter, the last device in the information chain in our...

    Christianity made me an atheist.

    Where is God?

    What makes the Christian concepts of forgiveness and mercy sub-human is the Cross. Humans are able to forgive and even to reconcile with one another without any bloodshed, much less a human sacrifice, involved. And let's look at what you have to say about XY: So, if we are created in goodness...

    How could Adam know?

    Perhaps you would care to teach us all just what the whole story of the Garden was about?

    How could Adam know?

    Right! Certainly he can't go about blaming humans for being sinful if he's the one who made them so.

    How could Adam know?

    Where is God?

    Really? So you don't pass a plate or have a box in the foyer or ever ask people to give you money? You don't tell people that they need to tithe? You must be in one of the only churches in the world that doesn't. And even if you don't how do you not "sell god"? If you must first weave a story...

    Where is God?

    So, if a believing a lie makes someone a better person then it is unassailable? Or if a system keeps people from thinking for themselves and yet those people are well-behaved then the system is good? I don't understand what you mean by "ruined." To me, the word applies to any system that is...

    Where is God?

    Yes they do. I still catch myself feeling like some invisible being is looking over my shoulder and evaluating everything I do. It's happening less and less, which is freeing. But, as you said, I am happy too. If not only for myself, at the very least I am able to teach my own children to...
