Sigh. Any system of belief, even atheism has tenets to it. You deny that you have beliefs that are just 'faith claims'. But it is true. If you believe life came from non-life that is a faith claim that science can not support. You just aren't honest about your faith.ZeusAres42 said:just_sayin said:Sorry Zeus, I just don't have as much faith as you. I can't believe that everything came from nothing. That life came from non-life. That complexity came from chaos. That consciousness came from the irrational. Or that morals came from randomness. I just don't have enough faith to believe that. It's worse than magic. At least when a magician pulls a rabbit out of his hat, he has a hat to start with.ZeusAres42 said:none. And I am an Atheist too.Anyway, as for this, I was responding that there is no evidence we atheists have to claim that God does not exist. To do so would entail making claims about which we do not know.
Your quote reads, "I don't have as much faith as you to not have faith."
I am anti-faith. And no amount of linguistic manipulation on your part will change that. I am an advocate for evidence-based epistemology, not flawed and failed epistemologies like faith.

alI I can say to you, is to grow up.
ZeusAres42. Thanks Bogan for finally admitting that for you it was never about defence against terrorism but your hate for Arab and Muslim countries. Thanks for admitting that you would like to see them all wiped off the face of the earth.
Well, actually, it is about saving my own civilisation from degeneration and ultimate collapse, caused by people such as your good self, who think that always sneering at your own civilisation and it’s culture is somehow the “intelligent” thing to do.

For factfinder it's defense terrorism.
For maycaesr it's defense against terrorism.
For me it's about defence against terrorism.
We-e-e-ell, my opinion is, that for you, is that it is either about virtue signalling grandstanding, or, displaying your party affiliation to your educated elitist caste. Or, both factors together.
ZeusAres42 For you it's extremism. For you it's radicalism. You are an extremist. You are no different than Isis!
For me, it is the fun of trying to deprogram people like you, who have crazy opinions inserted into your receptive brains by your peers and the media. It is also the fun or trying to remove the mental blocks inserted into your head, which you are unable to think beyond.
ZeusAres42.I'm against extremism and terrorism. Therefore I am also against you.
So, you are my enemy? That is great, Zeus. Everybody needs a good enemy. Somebody you hate so much that you will do anything to beat the bastard A good enemy keeps you on your toes and stops you from getting flabby. One good thing about enemies, is that you know exactly where they stand with you. Which can’t always be said about some of your friends.
