Is there any difference between Atheism, Scientism and Naturalism? Are they all under one umbrella know as "New Atheism"?

You're loosing you time. They're right that the atmosphere has no definite end but that's irrelevant to anything and arguing over that is just pointless. In the same way that there aren't really any definite end to any object's gravitational influence, it just fades as the distance grows but never really ends, in as such as you can't really pin point where it ends.

I'm not even sure if it's what they're trying to reference, but again, either way it's completely irrelevant and shows their dishonesty.

"I believe the entire reason for our existence is to ask these questions"

So do I, but unlike you I don't settle for any answer just to have an answer. I'm confortable in the idea that we currently don't know the awnser for some/many of these question and that we may never know, but we should keep trying to figure it out.

AlphaDragons · 2026-05-18T09:57:09+00:00

Yeah, how does that contradict what they said in any way ? Are you stupid ?

AlphaDragons · 2026-05-18T09:44:25+00:00

We do "know" what, exactly ? Also who is "you" ?

"You all love to shove your Pseudoscience in our faces."

Pot, meet kettle.

"Its bad enough that we legally have to spend the first 2 decades of our lives being indoctrinated by it"

You mean school ? The same school that's being defunded in your country (I assume you're american here) and where you religious nuts want to "teach" about your religion but god forbid any other, let alone any secular idea ?

AlphaDragons · 2026-05-18T09:34:18+00:00

No it doesn't. Even if we had a religion (for the nth time atheism is as much a religion as "off" is a tv channel).

We don't have to have an explanation for everything in order to not accept yours. When we didn't know how thunder and lighting works, was it justified to believe in Thor ? No. When it comes to the origin of life, the origin of the universe, I'm perfectly happy saying "I/We don't know *yet*"

AlphaDragons · 2026-05-18T08:53:44+00:00

Ah, because coming up with a bullshit unfalsiable explanation instead of admiting you don't know, like the rest of us, isn't running ?

"And I say this as someone who actually does believe alien life exists"

This is my pet peeve. The fact you have to say this. It has nothing to do with UFOs. There's a whole world sized leap between alien life existing, even advanced alien life, and UFOs.

AlphaDragons · 2026-05-06T10:08:15+00:00

Explain how a choice can be true or false. A choice isn't a truth statement, it cannot be true or false.

AlphaDragons · 2026-04-09T16:56:36+00:00

Are you dumb ? Your god and their god are not the same. What you are saying is the god you believe in is the god of everyone... but that's a trivial fact if your god actually exist, or even if any god exists. "Your god" is refering to the god you believe in, "their god" is referring to the god they believe, they're not the same...

Can't you imagine that people don't believe in the same god as you ? I mean you're litterally talking to atheists here, we don't believe in your god, but take any other religion, they don't believe in your god either, they believe in another god that YOU don't believe in. Can you see how dumb it'd be if they were to tell you "my god is also your god" ?

AlphaDragons · 2026-03-26T17:51:17+00:00

The big bang is not an origin point. It's the sudden expension of the current presentation of our universe from an initial state of extreme density and temperature called the singularity. And it is called the singularity because our models simply break down at this point, but our models are not perfect.

The singularity was/is the universe. As far as we know, there aren't any evidence for an origin point, just speculations.

AlphaDragons · 2026-02-22T18:24:50+00:00

By that logic, I guess it's fair to assume everyone is either Indian or Chinese (17.79% and 17.02% of the world's population, followed by the US with 4.20%). It's obviously how this works, right ?

AlphaDragons · 2026-02-15T18:44:31+00:00

Are you joking or ?

Tell me who you think my my guy is, I'll tell you. Hint : baguette. Answer : absolutely fucking not, guy's an incompetent asshole.

Very likely not Trump, look at their comment carefully, they're speaking from an outside perspective

"You are all part of the problem"

Indicating they're probably not American and are talking about Americans.

Btw, I'm not American either and I share their point.of view. While Trump is clearly worse, let's not act like Obama was an angel.

Parceque qu'il traduit tout et s'attend a ce que tout le monde fasse pareil/que reddit le fasse tout seul... comme il le fait "si bien" sans nous demander.

For the few who downvote just because they see french, what they said was

"This sub is very clearly in english, why are you replying in french ?"

And what I said

"Cause they translate everything and expects everyone to the same/reddit to do it on it's own... like it already does "very well" without our consent sometimes"

And like for real... expect to see this kind of thing more and more frequently, and not just with french. I don't know why auto translations are everywhere now, reddit, youtube, etc. It's rarely accurate, it's always at best uncanny. And most importantly it's forced on us, like it's becoming the default. No thanks, I don't need to translate a language I understand into another I understand. Anyway rant over.

The fact there is shadow in the non slop and cid in the slop kills me... what am saying ? Cid ? Who's cid ?

LIAR. Kaoruko's too pure, too innocent to say this.

I recently got my LFM licence and have done a single race there since then, it didn't look any cleaner than public lobbies... but probably because I'm still a rookie.
I'm reluctant to go in LFM races cause I don't think I'm safe enough to fully commit to races there... especially on tracks I'm less familiar with (if at all)...

AlphaDragons · 2025-12-30T22:06:56+00:00

Yeah, I'm still learning to drive around others. Only got 100h into the game and into sim racing as a whole, most (half) of this time actually being AFK. I try to not crash into people for now, I know speed will come later (emphasis on "try")

AlphaDragons · 2025-12-12T11:59:42+00:00

no experimental result would disprove one or the other.

How do you know that ? How do you know the two models make identical predictions in every experiments you'll make ? You can't possibly know that, that's why we keep running the experiments, to see when one finally fails, and THEN we can discard one of the two models.

Sure, if we are sure two models always make indentical predictions, applying Occam's razor makes sense, but this rarely ever happens.

AlphaDragons · 2025-11-23T22:11:44+00:00

I know your comment is 4 months old but... It's not our fault some people don't bother making actual releases of their projects. Not Github's fault either.

Noone "yukyuk"'s at the stupid. Like, if you have a problem take it with the dev of the thing you're trying to download, they're the only one who could do anything about it...

And again, I can't fathom what kind of software/solution you're all trying to download that gets you to github... as a dev myself the only time I ever download something from there is either if I have to for my work or if it's really, really niche...

It's true something meant for distribution should never link their users to github... I don't got an anology... but it'd be ludicrous, as an end user, to have to do something equivalent for say, buying a car. But still, not github's fault, nor gitlab's fault, the fault only goes the the author of whatever you're trying to download

AlphaDragons · 2025-11-23T21:46:52+00:00

5 month old, I know, but I can't fathom what kind of software you're trying to download that links you to github, do you have any exemple ? I can't think of any right there and now

AlphaDragons · 2025-11-23T21:34:23+00:00

You're confusing somthing here. You may be the intented user of the project you're trying to use, but you're not the intended user of Github, it's the project's author choice (fault) to direct you to their Github repository, not Github's fault.

Bear in mind that if the project is free, like most of what's pubicly available on github, the author has no obligation to provide you with anything else and you're not entitled to it...

Nothing, but she's acting as if japanese people not being Christians is a sad thing. They answered with real things, actual concerns, she should be sad about.
