Down right genocidal toward them Isaac Send a noteboard - 01/12/2010 01:31:47 AM
I hope for your sake that our new Bacterial Overlords aren't too strict with their anti-discrimination policies! :P


If lowly bacteria ever claim dominion I'm likely to have Robert Neville I am Legend moment, for I have slain countless millions of the subhuman slime, and indeed even the lowlier Eukaryotes such as the yeast have been enslaved to toil on my behalf until they die, growing my bread and beer and yogurt, little more than serfs to me.
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.

If there is life in the solar system then it is likely a natural development in the universe. Tom - 30/11/2010 05:12:38 AM 704 Views

Seems to put atheists in a bit of a catch-22 there. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 05:54:25 AM 837 Views
Bwa? Craig - 30/11/2010 06:45:33 AM 760 Views
Sorry, yeah. That is not my position. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 07:03:17 AM 753 Views
The best will be when we find other intelligent life beetnemesis - 30/11/2010 02:32:35 PM 660 Views
Well, I don't actually agree with the first part of your Catch-22. At least, not entirely. Tom - 30/11/2010 02:43:13 PM 792 Views
Using anthropomorphic terms to describe the universe only reflects on you, not on the universe. *NM* Dreaded Anomaly - 30/11/2010 07:31:04 PM 336 Views
What an arbitrary and meaningless statement. *NM* Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 07:52:13 PM 274 Views
Anthropomorphizing concepts is a cognitive bias. Dreaded Anomaly - 30/11/2010 11:19:23 PM 662 Views
Only given a certain metaphysical framework. Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 12:18:09 AM 706 Views
Mind dumbing that down a bit? Isaac - 01/12/2010 12:43:47 AM 644 Views

That ain't not a lot simpler Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:35:38 AM 770 Views
Yes. Darth_Katie - 01/12/2010 01:44:41 AM 734 Views
In short, demanding that everyone use your particular worldview is unfair. Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 02:21:26 AM 758 Views
Those worldviews are unsupported by empirical evidence. Dreaded Anomaly - 01/12/2010 01:41:27 AM 849 Views
No worldviews are supported by empirical evidence. *NM* ranagrande - 01/12/2010 01:57:23 AM 317 Views
Empiricism is unsupported by empirical evidence. *NM* Ghavrel - 01/12/2010 02:21:52 AM 282 Views
Empirical evidence is the only objective standard. Dreaded Anomaly - 01/12/2010 02:59:18 AM 706 Views
Empirical evidence cannot fully explain reality. ranagrande - 01/12/2010 03:28:41 AM 798 Views

Time does not exist separately from space, as Einstein demonstrated almost a century ago. Dreaded Anomaly - 01/12/2010 03:36:56 AM 791 Views
I have my own theories about time, but they're not ready for presentation yet ranagrande - 01/12/2010 03:56:38 AM 1057 Views

Interesting. I agree with what you're saying, actually. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 07:49:51 PM 640 Views
It won't change the argument in the least. Dannymac - 01/12/2010 05:26:16 AM 834 Views
I have the feeling it's probably not going to be that. Ghavrel - 30/11/2010 06:02:48 AM 714 Views

I'll not bow to any mere Bacterial Overlords, Eukaryote Overlords only!!! *NM* Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:02:20 AM 290 Views
So you're prejudiced against the nuclearly challenged? ranagrande - 01/12/2010 01:09:57 AM 664 Views
It's this kind of blind adherence to political correctness that is tearing us apart! Darth_Katie - 01/12/2010 01:28:39 AM 650 Views
Down right genocidal toward them Isaac - 01/12/2010 01:31:47 AM 648 Views

Oh no you didn't *NM* Camilla - 01/12/2010 01:14:55 AM 265 Views

Re: But then you got turned on just thinking about the phrase? Gaps - 01/12/2010 02:23:02 AM 739 Views
I'm actually a tiny bit giddy about this. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 01/12/2010 01:04:49 AM 271 Views
