Stop the war in 1 day, now it's an European thing
Lacessit replied to bubblegum's topic in Political Soapbox
Trump was never going to stop the war, he just lied ( as usual ) that he could. Now he will be placing the blame elsewhere ( as usual ) -
The weather is atrocious out there.

According to Clint Eastwood's character Blondie, also known as the rat. -
When you have idiots on social media shrieking about how dangerous vaccines are.... QED.

Put simply, there is more money to be made from medicines which allay symptoms, than those that completely cure a condition, so that is where the research mostly goes. Having said that, the advances in targeted inhibitors and immunology over the last 20 years are quite incredible.

You mean like Putin is trying to ethnically cleanse Ukraine? Stalin killed 6 million Ukrainians during the Holodomor, then migrated Russians into the vacuum. They are no more ethnic than you or me. Rinse and repeat, Russian invasion of Crimea in 2014. Truth gets in the way of false narratives.

Zelensky is Jewish.

Wars are about theft writ large. Territory, resources, water, oil. Ukraine has 25-30% of the world's black soil ( chernozem ) , which is the richest and most productive agricultural soil on the planet. Putin is not insane. He is a cunning sociopath. He plays Trump like a harp. Putin's mistake when invading Ukraine was to believe the intelligence supplied by the FSB, who were telling him what they thought he wanted to hear.

If it were not for the modern medical system, I would be dead 2-3 times over. About 20 years ago, or 2 years ago. I am pretty sure any prayers to a deity would have been useless. Your post is a good example of why the concept of evolution has been so unpopular with religious groups.

The evidence for both is there. When you get around to disproving the laws of thermodynamics, let me know.

You have reached the stage of repeating the same mantra over pages of this thread. Propaganda does not become more valid by repetition. I have noted you refuse to address the question of original sin, a concept unique to Christianity, which makes as much sense as an ashtray on a motorbike. No doubt it was drummed into you in Catholic school, along with the Virgin Mary. It does illustrate your dishonesty.

If I believe in anything, it is science. Which is subject to rigorous rules of evidence, and testing of hypotheses to destruction. It's why science has always sat uncomfortably with religion, because faith discards any pretense of evidence and testing.

They believe in Allah, just like Jews believe in Yahweh. What makes you think they are any better than Jupiter or Odin? You are in complete denial of the fact you were indoctrinated as a child. To admit you could be wrong is a bridge too far, it would turn your world upside down.

What is asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence. Hitchin's razor.

There are 2.5 billion Christians, 2 billion Muslims. On current birth rates for both god versions, there will be more Muslims than Christians by 2050. At that point, they will be the majority view you are espousing as being right. Muslims regard Jesus as a holy person. They don't give him the status you do.
-
Now you are coming the raw prawn. Of course you think you are better, because you believe. Muslims think they are better than you. They are also outbreeding you.

Some ads are entertaining.....

Without our smartphones, where would we be in 2025?
Lacessit replied to hankypankee's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
Smartphones are just a tool. Like any tool, they can be misused. I really wonder what the Thais did before smartphones. -
I know there are people out there who are smarter than me. "Not understanding how intelligent I am?" How many tickets have you got on yourself?

I am not seeking to convert people to atheism or agnosticism. OTOH, Christians, Jews and Muslims seek to proselytize whole nations. Yes, I may be totally wrong. I could be right as well. Appeal to majority thinking is a crappy argument. IIRC the heliocentric propositions of Copernicus and Galileo were met with fervent majority opposition.
-
An utterly false argument. Non-believing parents don't brainwash their children. They allow them to make up their own minds about religion and belief. If you claim you were not brainwashed by going to a Catholic school, you are being disingenuous. That's the whole point of denominational schools, indoctrination. I suppose you were lucky, not being targeted by a kiddie fiddler.
-
Brainwashing children into believing in a god that sends people to hell if they sin is child abuse, so don't get the idea you are any better.

How do you know it won't be 72 virgins?

I am pretty confident you won't be coming back to tell me I am wrong.
