Re: I can prove that God exists
Clearly, Leelo, you understand how evolution can work but you really need to read some science books or bother to search Wikipedia. Living beings can evolve to better match their environment but in the case of the banana , it's a heavily domesticated species mankind modified for its convenience. The...

Re: I can prove that God exists
Ugh! Redefinition of an existing word is the same deceit that Aquinas used. Every time someone does that, I have this urge to reach through the Internet and beat the perpetrator around the head with a dictionary. Fortunately, you're joking. Continuing my theme of irrationality that makes me angry. T...

Re: I can prove that God exists
One curious observation in those who advocate Pascal's Wager is they insult their god by suggesting he might be interested in them. Or rather, as a god is a construct of the believer's needs, if their god actually existed, using Pascal's Wager means losing that wager. Pascal's Wager claims it's bett...

Re: I can prove that God exists
Now you've got me started. St. Thomas Aquinas is said to be a great theologian and philosopher but when I read his famous Five Ways or five proofs of God, I think he's just taking the piss. I'll summarize. Everything that moves was moved by something else. As there can't be infinite chains, there mu...

Re: I found this interesting
I can't see John Paul II being the worst Pope. I believe the anti-condom policy is still in force. He also apologised over the persecution of Galileo and he acknowledged the Theory of Evolution. Benedict XVI has reversed the latter. This isn't saying much but I think the idiocy of John Paul II is be...

Re: Joining Westboro Baptist Church, pros and cons
There would have been little you could have learnt from such people unless you wish to study self-destructive and spiritually crippled people in order to be a counsellor, psychiatrist or criminologist. A fascinating subject, like everything, but you only have time to focus on your talents and profes...

Re: the sexy thread
Why should you ask forgiveness for finding religious literature sexy? What you do in the privacy of your bedroom is a matter between you and your hand. You can't hurt the Dalai Lama by lusting for him, you know.

Re: Brave New World
Oh good grief! I didn't expect anyone here to have this level of paranoia, or worse, link it to religious mythology. We're enlightened, 21st century guys and gals. We're free of that kind of stupid shit. Is Barrack Obama going to create some kind of dystopia? What's he likely to do with his populari...

Re: Going to hell. Have a seat.
You know, I wonder what Jesus thinks about the fact that Christianity uses images of him getting killed in the most brutal and lengthy way the Romans had at their disposal as their primary symbol ... If Jesus was alive to see it, he'd go on television and tell people to stop thinking they're a bunc...

Re: Riddle me this
In the absence of Zero, Primarch should be declared the winner.
As for Illithiad Tentacle's riddle: a fart.
I'm failing to envisage what a big bag of cocks might speak or even how. Perhaps it's best that I don't.

Re: Riddle me this
Xero gets it first with a specific instance of the standard answer: an object in circular motion. Presumably, he now sets the next riddle. I liked Lulujayne's first answer but, alas, the horizon is not a fixed point. Aeridus's answer is just nonsense as an object that is unable to move further canno...

Re: Riddle me this
You did reject reasonable answers that made the scenario possible, even after your alterations. You should have asked what answer you were thinking, not what made the scenario possible. Failing to write what you mean is dangerous at best and unacceptable for a riddle. What is continuously moving tow...

Re: Riddle me this
Oops. I didn't see the later alterations to the riddle.
The men walked in with chips, which is not money, and had their winnings converted to cash before they left.

Re: Riddle me this
All four men won from the bank and the croupiers were standing, duh! You asked how the scenario is possible, not what actually happened in the fictional scenario you imagined. That is, an answer that does not match the answer in your head can still be correct. How does my answer NOT explain how the...
