It works at light speed, so you don't actually have to be in Denmark physically. Its these tiny little electrons that travel really really fast. I think internet data also travels through fiber optic cables, that is photons also very tiny fast traveling particles. They travel so fast...

matheology, transphysicalism, interdimensional sciences etc. We need them and we need to start NOW!

Forums are for talkers, and thinkers. Mostly talking thinkers. People who need both of these things and get none of these things in real life.

I count myself theist in some sense, probably however not in biblical sense. I think my reasons for doing good is because I was made to be good in some sense. Departing from the good is simply an error. I am legit not sure how much of accepting some higher organizing principal above human...

Right in that sense I agree. Sure that seems reasonable. Morality gets interesting when we get to nitty gritty of things and decide what needs to be done, to me that is where we seem to clash as individuals.

I think there is slightly more nuances to human minds than mere MBTI, but I would argue that cog functions are not perfect maps of human reasoning. Ti is introvert thinking, it means the thinking is happening with insider logic, subjective reasoning based around some sort of frame of reference...

One way I agree to look at it is that its logical to fall in love, if we assume its logical to have love feelings. But we have to treat love as premise. Or even an axiom, ergo if beings are capable of love (axiom) then they will fall in love (conclusion). However the process that happens by is...

Of course he wants that, we aren't insects. We have individual selves. That is true. We humans have different perceptions, we have different qualities, so we end up seeing things differently. Morality can look at things differently too. Standardized unicode morality is a pipe dream. It would...

Its unrealistic yes, that is where I think its important to remain grounded in what one knows. I think this where self learning requires prudence. Just because I spent 1000 of hours learning something does not mean jack if I did it wrong, and made the wrong assumptions. I agree with this...

Do atheist look for self-aggrandizement? I don't think I believe what I believe because I want to be seen as all good. I do things because I believe they are good. Sometimes I believe good things are necessary. I believe this one way or another. God or no God makes no difference. I do good...

I can too, it depends what kind of maths. We do a lot math in our heads anyway, including the thinking part. I doubt a real math problem can be solved in 30 seconds. You are being told elitist stuff by someone who is really being elitist, but not real. That said I do believe there are people...

Sure, but you are saying that like its legit only way to teach oneself.

Yeah, the power of night is mine!

Just go to Mexico, and visit the South of US, nice swim in the ocean, and good weather in Texas. Passing the border, just follow the crowds of South Americans. I know I know not funny, but just in case, ...... :D I hate the fact ordinary citizens have to be searched over and scanned like...

Trouble with logic we aren't logical creatures alone. You are never going to make anyone believe anything through logic. A belief is inherently illogical. There degrees of beliefs. Ergo its more logical to think that a boxer with 100 wins will win over a boxer with 0 wins. And its inherently...

Aw damn, I see nothing, but Ill be watching the sky, its night and I am night Owl now.

I never really questioned it, but I never believed it either. I just took it to be one of those things that is said. Then again I did believe in stupid things, as well. But to be fair to kids, grown ups believe stupid things as well. So being kid and believing stupid thing is not imho so bad...

What I mean is "someone has to introduce the concept to you." Or have you encountered kids that by default believe in Santa?, Ghosts?, God?, big bad devil who will take them away if they don't listen to parents?, etc. etc. Also just side note, how many kids are born and not gullible? How...

The reality is atheism does not require any arguments. Atheism is default setting.

Thinkers have a blind spot. That is direct experience. Thinkers need to sometimes be like ESTPs in order to experience something. We modern humans are so removed from direct experiences today that we don't even know how to function like human beings. Direct experience is greatest teacher. Also...

Got banished for 10 years on that forum after lots of antisemitic infractions. The reality is I was just pointing out something, but since stormfront attacked their forum the moderators had pstd and infracted anyone even so as much suggesting a jew person might be bad. SO there was this debate...

So its company you want? Maybe you need friends. Factually though if you don't know, you have to explore to learn what it is. Sometimes even few tries is enough to learn what you like to do. Like you start doing something "Oh this is boring and dumb" and you try something else. Suddenly you...

OP I agree lots of people are not great. The only solution is to find circles of people who share your views values. You are caring person with empathy? Great find carrying people with empathy? You don't like to listen to people about how they cheat. Great just talk with people about what you...

Well you vote and then nothing, in politics. Its good to know stuff about politics, but its not going to be of any use, unless you know why politics is important to you. Most people that I talk to about politics don't know what it even is. Some people are merely interested in taxes and some...

Parks are great place to chill though.

uuuu thats spooky.

We need to ask the question of stuff on, what level are we talking about? There is molecular, atomic, quantum level of stuff. Then there is our perception of stuff. Then there is energy. Energy is just vibrations. Basically mass = energy. Mass is condensate energy.

Do you think there is something about your internet life, like reducing few hours on line and replace it with something more fun? Maybe just something that is outside of internet for sake of it being something more real?

Can you think of any changes in life that would benefit you?

I actually don't know what those are. I listened to priest on funerals and saw some TV sermons televized from church. I cannot make heads or tails from it. Basically if go real raw, murdering people, screwing someone elses wife, bad mouthing, etc. are kind of universal behaviors with minor...

Everything in bible is mans writing. When Christians say its word of God, what they mean, these are accounts of what we know about this duded who claims to be son of God. But that is mouth full.

I am getting a deja vu from this thread. I think all people are actually right in some sense here. First of all Id state the obvious, its impossible to disentangle modern society from Christian values when most of it is still Christian, and for 1500 years Christianity had monopoly on all of...

What do you exactly expect of people?

Whats been discovered is that high IQ people do need variety and challenge and actually do poorly in unchallenging environments. But you are right they don't necessarily learn well in rote memory and sequential learning which is most of what we do all day long in schools. Its actually a small...

Its hard to say because blind obedience aka conformism, is actually a good survival strategy, given that 99 percent of things you do is simply following someone who say something. In modern world conformism is pretty quick way to good life, even in politics or religion or hierarchy at large...

That is true. In fact we mostly operate on conjecture. We take some idea of reality and create a model of reality that fits our needs.

I have done some research on this topic.

Yes, we have obviously limit to brain power. IQ is nice, but not the only bottleneck. Other bottlenecks are willpower, privilege, personality traits, neurodivergence ergo not being square peg fitting round hole, memory which can be trained, but some people have better than others, ability to...

I don't think the problem is clear to some of you, but the number of theories and concepts today is much higher than 100 years ago in Academia. What Newton had to know to be a genius of century would be considered childs play by todays standards. Cramming all the knowledge of particular field...

I also learn to rely more on my own understanding than relying on teachers finding my mistakes.

No not really. I learn the things that were university curriculum, its easy. Wish I had more FOCUS. It is actually fun and Zero stress. I also pick when and how I learn. I also have time to go back and learn. Its less structured.

I am not entirely sure? Clearly the biggest problem is no one can see or point to god.

Maybe true, to some degree, but to be happy with the base is art in and of it self. How many people never make it to the base, or worse die young. Or how many people aim for the stars and they do hit them, and their life ends unhappy and is unhappy. Glittering prizes all that is.

- what do you need a relationship for .... insert reasons.... - finding someone who can supply that... insert person... - what do they want from you .... insert their wants... That seems to be all there is, lying just leads to situations where people get upset or hurt. Also means you spend...

Very good point. If I functioned in a linear robotic way I would not be the human I am. In fact the way we work is entirely different than we think. We have so many needs that are not immediately apparent of a pragmatic goal.

This is really what I see all the damn time.
