God is not great: How religion poisons everthing

[garyb]

does one value the coin or only one of the faces on it?

any dialectic, hegelian or otherwise, is a trap and is shit(lazy) intellectuallism, but is effective in moving the herd...

the rest, the isms, the agnosts and athiests and catholics are just part of "novus ordo seclorum" and "ordo ab chao". the dead go about pretending to be alive and argue about these things of no consequence.

what do you believe in then?
and what makes you more alive than others here?

[ReD_MuZe]

it just occurred to me, it seems like talking about things of no consequence help me achieve things of consequence because i finally found the solution for a problem i had for days, while babbling away here
and now i can go back to coding and stop my yapping
cheers!

i do my best not to simply be lie ve.

more alive than others? you mistake my jokes using occult terminology for personal attitudes and beliefs.

-btw, i really AM glad that you got somewhere with your problem. i'd like to think that i din't help you only by annoying you(it's ok either way, i just like to think that).

[ReD_MuZe]

ho gary i just realized you just like to press the ReD buttons just for the fun of it. i was sure you were serious

but really how about a genuine honest answer regarding to your beliefs? you cant avoid believing can you? and if you can let me in on the trick please!

yes, these things are a problem, because they become the ultimate vehicle for control...

naturally i believe things, but i try not to get to caught up in that.

yes, i know of a creator/god, but that probably doesn't mean the same thing to me that it might to you or any other. it's a personal experience that doesn't translate to english clearly, not without many hours together anyway, and i'm not trying to convince anybody of anything. God doesn't require my help forming a fan club anyway.

also, there is meaning in my jokes. i like to say that if i saw someone looking at a poopsicle at a tasty ice cream, i'd be the guy to say, "hey! don't eat that! it's poop!". if the guy with the poopsicle told me to shut up and mind my own darn business, i might try the warning again, but eventually, if he really wanted to munch on that poop pop, i'd have to let him figure it out, or not, himself. the funny thing is, that some guys will get very upset, even when they realize it IS poop, that they get warned. it seems that some want an ice cream so badly, that they'd be willing to pretend that poop was ice cream in order to get satisfaction. warning them just spoils the illusion and all their fun, so then the warner becomes a party pooper, as it were....

oh well.

Yes its like warning your friends in the bar that she is not really as hot has he thinks. This is usually because of the alcohol-ism......

thanks gary for the momentary serious honesty, i found it refreshing

i've heard the poop analogy from you before, and even tho its quite funny, its not how it seems to be, because making fun of someone for eating poop will not stop him from eating it. besides, i think you have a rather controversial opinion on what is and isn't poop (i do too and its OK), so imo you really are better off either giving honest answers about that poop, or just accept that this guy is going to eat that poop.

.....controversial opinion on what is and isn't poop .

That's the essence of my point. It can't be different than controversial when you come to evaluations.

here we are in complete agreement.
