@AF_GenZer@magicpanda_703@FabrcioMiller2@ThinkingAtheist Our relation to other primates is a fact. And we know that because of our genome. Humans didn’t come from a single breeding pair, especially not one made from dirt and cloned dirt.
@magicpanda_703@FabrcioMiller2@ThinkingAtheist That’s exactly the point lmao. The diversity of the human genome changed with each generation. Thus with each generation, humans became more distinguishable
@CoolestDudeOnX@ThinkingAtheist I mean, if we’re talking about the Old Testament then yeah he is. Guy’s solution for Hebrew slavery was wacky weather and murder. Could have just teleported his people away.
@realBigStanH Best way to deal with it is not arguing trying to prove God exist. Denying God doesn’t make him non existent. He exists. It’s just praying for them
This should scare the hell out of everyone.
The midterms are coming.
Stop the bickering, stop the infighting, head down, eyes on the prize.
If we f**k this up, we lose everything we’ve worked the last decade for.
If we lose the midterms, we lose the country, perhaps forever.
@logic_alone@DeeWaynee94 No such non-contingent foundation need exist, for one. Infinite regress is not an actual problem. Two, you don’t get to simply skip over the part where your ‘non-contingent thing’ is a BEING with agency that you are defining as necessary. So yes, you’re defining it into existence
@this_is_easy@DeeWaynee94 I am not defining a being into existence. I am following the argument that contingent things require a non contingent foundation. You reject the conclusion. That is fine. But show where the logic fails without assuming physicalism first.
1+1 has a demonstrable answer and a method you can check.
“God” claims are just rival fandoms yelling different numbers and getting offended when you ask to see the working.
@logic_alone@DeeWaynee94 You’re trying to argue about definitions while trying to define something into existence 😂
You’re accusing me of smuggling materialism (physicalism) while you try to smuggle in supernaturalism and fail (proudly!) to be able demonstrate such a thing even exists 🤣
@this_is_easy@DeeWaynee94 You are defining “being” as physical by assumption. That is the error. A necessary being is not physical by definition. You are smuggling materialism into the premise and then declaring victory. That is not logic. It is a tautology.
There was a time, not long ago, when you voted on Election Day & knew the winner by bedtime.
Then COVID hit. Lawyers like Norm Eisen & Marc Elias dismantled election laws to flood the system with mail-in ballots.
Election Day became Election Month.
In my 2022 race, we led on Election Night, despite machines “failing” that day. Then they spent 13 days counting mail-ins until my opponent pulled ahead.
In 2024, it took nine days to count. One morning we learned Yuma County had “found” a vault of mail-in ballots that doubled their total.
This stinks to high heaven.
Americans have lost faith in our elections. If we don’t end Election Month & restore Election Day, with paper ballots, small precincts, & results the same night, voters will stop showing up.
She's not wrong.
A potato grown with chemicals is called a potato but a potato grown without chemicals is called an organic potato.
Why is the burden of proof on the one not using poison?
Instead of an organic label, we need a chemical label.

@AtheistTakes If Jesus rose from the dead, it automatically disproves all other gods. Jesus said, no one comes to the Father, except through me, thus making all other religions invalid.
Simple.
Pete Hegseth's pastor says he wants James Talarico to die and be crucified:
Podcast host: "I pray that God kills him."
Pete Hegseth's pastor: "Right, right. We want him crucified"
@SaveAmericaNew Create a NEW Party- the MAGA Party, or Patriot Party, or America First Party, or the Centrist Party... Why should the Republican Party benefit from Trump's supporters?! There are enough Independents and disaffected Dems and Repubs for this NEW party to become the MAJORITY!
@BrandiKruse This is not something that should have to be done. The school staff needs to be aware of the school they are supposedly in charge of managing. The teacher should be reprimanded for allowing it, or encouraging it.
@DrMikeLicona Moral instinct shaped by our evolution as cooperative social animals answers this. It’s not objective but it isn’t also human invention. Just as taste isn’t objective but we can come to agreement that ice cream tastes better than sand, because we evolved to like fat, sugar, etc.
Can you be good without God?
Atheists often lead lives of high integrity, but the issue is the source of the rules they follow. If morality is just a human invention, then one person's opinion is as valid as another's.
We need a standard that exists outside of our own preferences to say that certain things are truly wrong for everyone at all times. Without a lawgiver, what we call "good" is just a personal or social habit rather than a fixed truth.

@this_is_easy@DeeWaynee94 That is exactly the category error. A necessary being is not a physical object. Demanding empirical proof for it is like demanding a telescope see justice. You are using the wrong tool and calling it a problem. That is not rigor. It is confusion.
@this_is_easy@DeeWaynee94 I never said my being is necessary. I said demanding empirical proof for a necessary being is a category error. You misread, then mocked a claim I did not make. Swing again. This time aim.
