    Why do Humans care about anything ?

    I found the evidence for it an established fact. Obviously, if you disagree, you would have to look at the evidence. There might be several reasons why one would prefer death over life, one of them is biological, like suffering from a painful disease, having done something that one can't live...

    Why do Humans care about anything ?

    I don't think it has changed over time. We ultimately aim for individual survival, we still need to eat, sleep, and not get "eaten" by things that want to "prey" on us. But as evolution has led us, we find this easier when being in larger groups, and over time given our brains we have becomes...

    Men’s cologne

    My brother's oldest child just got to the age where these things are the hot stuff. And my brother told me, that the stuff they go for is these "old" cologne ones, obviously, they have to be expensive because that is how they judge whether it is good or not :D But my brother told him, that...

    Future of humanity

    That is no issue :) What I think is the most important thing is how disconnected or little focus the human future gets in the things we do. To me, the political system is working at a snail's pace, while technology is like a running cheetah. And I think we are going to run into serious problems...

    Is it important to know, when humans started believing in God?

    I think humans have believed in God(s) or the supernatural is probably a more accurate naming in the earlier times, almost from the moment we could interpret natural phenomena as something beyond nature, meaning something which couldn't be rationalized through our understanding of the world...

    Future of humanity

    I have read Sapiens, very good book I think. But none of the others. But the chat is interesting, talking about AI etc. But also that humans as a species might stop to exist. Not in the way of extinction, but simply because we might start to biologically change or enhance humans to the point...

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    It is still a behavior whether he "wills" it or not. Behavior definition: the way in which one acts or conducts oneself, especially towards others. The only way this wouldn't be true is if God is a non-intervening God, which essentially makes God pointless. Because there would be no difference...

    All members! Attention please!

    How do you report for click bait?!!! :D

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    Because it seems to draw on so many sources which are already extremely contradictive. Yet, from what I remember you telling me, Bahai thinks that the bible is highly "corrupted" by humans, which only makes it worse in my opinion because then you just pick whatever you think sounds reasonable...

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    I don't understand what you mean God doesn't have behaviors? Can you explain what the purpose of God is then, what does he do, that requires no behaviors? Because you say he is not bound by morality, but at the same time also only good. Didn't God create the Universe? Didn't he allow for...

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    That is a good question. God needs foundation in my opinion. Obviously the Bahai (from what I understand) get it primarily from Baha'u'llah and he gets them from God, because he is a messenger. I don't know why or if Baha'u'llah has corrected the other messengers? Because clearly whatever is...

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    Can we judge the moral action of an alien being? Let's say a clearly intelligent alien came to Earth and you could speak to it etc. And then it chose to drown five children for fun. Could you point to that alien and say that what it did was immoral? or is it above moral judgment, meaning that it...

    Future of humanity

    Didn't know what to name the topic. Anyway, very interesting talk by Yuval Noah Harari raises a lot of issues about the future of humanity. So if you have time I would recommend it.

    Are you equipped with a weapon?

    This is when I go shopping groceries: From Denmark, no one carries firearms here, except some of the gangs etc. But they only shoot each other anyway, so see no reason. :)

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    That doesn't work. That is like saying that a parent teaching their child moral behaviors, isn't subject to them themselves. Morality is not something that applies based on the subject, meaning that you can just individually point to different things and say they are moral and that is not. We...

    This is getting insane :)

    They are working on it :) These are not the only ones, but here you can see how it could work.

    Things I Learned on RF Today

    I know there are names you can't use, but I often create files with names where I just randomly type something, just crazy that "con" hasn't been one of them :D

    Things I Learned on RF Today

    Despite having used computers my whole life, I just noticed that you can't name a file "con" in Windows 10 :D Yes, I know it is exciting, but now you know it as well :P

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    This is not true, because im not comparing humans to God. But moral actions from the perspective of a human. We can perfectly conclude that both humans and God are intelligent beings capable of understanding what morality is. Also, God created the morality by which we are judged, which also...

    Why would God's ultimate power come with ultimate responsibility?

    Let's try to go around this some other way because I just don't get it :) These are the premises: 1. We are born as a blank slate 2. God knows who will become good or evil since God is all-knowing and God has foreknowledge 3. We do not actually become good or evil until we commit good or evil...
