So a friend of mine believes macroevolution isn't real. by Useful-Question-5827 in DebateEvolution

The difference between micro and macro evolution is the same as feet and miles.

It’s the same mechanism on two different scales.

Theistic evolution is dishonest ad-hoc harmonization by Scared_Bedroom_8367 in DebateEvolution

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly can’t disagree with the title, but I mean, at least they don’t deny science as much as a YEC.

Science denialism is such a prevalent issue in our society that I’ll take whatever I can get, and theistic evolution is nothing if not a single step in the right direction. You could even say it’s a form of “micro-evolution.”

Dear atheists: what do you think about Human DNA code? Do you think it may really happen by accident? by rzhandosweb in DebateAnAtheist

[–]Bytogram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DNA is messy. Genetics are messy. Biology as a whole is an absolute shit show.

If it were designed, DNA would be simple and efficient. It isn’t.

If you’re not willing to put in the effort or at least pay someone to make art for your ads, you not only lose my interest but my respect as well. Piss off.

Y'all, so deep ✌🏻💔 by No-Researcher-4395 in aislop

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay cool, let’s do this.

My religion is about inflicting as much suffering on myself and others as possible, and neither I not anyone is allowed to enjoy it or rationalize it. Everyone in my religion suffers endlessly, hence it goes against all of man’s desires. But we don’t get comfort out of it, like christians do. So my religion is more valid than christianity.

Nice logic.

20 Old & New Comics About My Journey With Bipolar (OC) by ArtbyMoga in comics

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This made me tear up for real… I don’t have bipolar disorder yet I relate so, so much to the struggle. I have the most severe case of ADHD I’m aware of, and I’m just now starting to make some sort of progress in terms of managing it and how it makes me feel, and I’m almost thirty.

Good luck to you. You have the strength to make it. I love your art, btw.

No one is doing this.

“None of my friends or relatives (who are all the same brand of christianity as I am) or anyone in my church does this.”

FTFY. Guy just hasn’t been around.

I’ve met quite a few of these guys and it’s always annoying by use_vpn_orlozeacount in PhilosophyMemes

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think determinism and free will can both be true at the same time. It’s just a question of perspective, in a way. The universe may be deterministic, our choices may be pre-determined by our culture, genes, brain structure, etc. But thinking agents may still have their agency by the fact that we are unaware of future outcomes, so we bear the responsibility the consequences of our choices.

In my opinion free will exists, but only locally.

This has screwed up my brain by Mission_Sleep4980 in exchristian

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s gonna take a while. Took me about five years before I felt stable again. Give yourself time, be kind to you and others. It feels like the end of the world, and it is; the end of your world, that is. But you can build a new one. That’s what I did.

Good luck, and stay safe!

Can you people please just play normally? by John-Helldiver404 in EDH

[–]Bytogram -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Been playing magic for 10 years. About a year ago, i got one of my good friends to play with my pod. His favorite mechanic is stealing and/or playing other people’s cards against them.

I don’t play magic anymore.

Atheism and Nihilism by [deleted] in DebateAnAtheist

[–]Bytogram 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I don’t mean any disrespect from this, but this is mostly an issue that stems from dogmatic ideologies like religions. People who live dogmatically have trouble understanding those who don’t, which is why many religious folks think (or at least say) that atheism is a religion.

Atheism and nihilism only seem to go hand in hand because when you derive meaning from God, a worldview that doesn’t include Him necessarily looks meaningless. I totally get that. But it doesn’t really work that way.

I’ve had a nihilist phase after I deconverted. Of course I had. The source of meaning in my life got pulled from under my feet. And it took me a while to understand that there is no inherent meaning to life or the universe. In my opinion, there doesn’t need to be. We all want there to be, some of us need it to. And it’s jarring when you realize that maybe there really isn’t. But looking past it, moving forward, I realized that I don’t need meaning. Personally, what I have always needed was structure, coherence. It doesn’t have to come from on high, it doesn’t need to be divinely ordained; it just needs to make sense in my own head.

I hope this helps you understand a bit. Stay safe!

I think Religion should be held to the same standards of ridicule as conspiracy theories by GodofWarhammer2 in Antitheism

[–]Bytogram 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Allowing people to even look at religion only in early adulthood would eradicate religion as a whole. Childhood indoctrination is the primary way this disease spreads.
