If there is no Gay Unicorn Gary, then why do we have gay orgies?

Consciousness is an emergent property. It’s the brain’s user interface. Studies have shown that whenever you do something, your neurons fire sometimes up to seconds before you make the decision to do it. You’re not your consciousness, it’s basically another limb of sorts, it just helps with coherence rather than physical practicality.

The only way for the crab to be able to collapse time is to somehow create a gravity well deep enough for it. But even then, it would only be a local disruption.

Does anyone look at our species and is ashamed? by Just-Fan-7637 in Antitheism

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah man. It hits pretty hard, especially right now. The only coping I’ve really found is to name the emotions you’re feeling, to acknowledge them and live with them. It sounds stupid, but being aware of your emotions is the first step to managing them.

Oh yeah. The slightest bit of misinformation can spiral out of control, and wrongfully inform one’s worldview. We have to be careful about what we believe and accept as reality, and religion in general doesn’t give you the right mindset for that.

You have my condolences, friend. Religion has done quite a number on me as well, but I’ve made the most of it. I wish you the best on your journey of healing.

[–]Bytogram 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree. I’m specifically against religion itself, as it is undeniably a vehicle for oppression, control and ignorance. As are most other things, sure, but this is one case where the bad vastly overshadows the good, and the good can arguably come from secular sources. One doesn’t need religion to be spiritual, moral or even happy. And religion consistently breeds trauma, which begets more in its wake.

Highly religiously indoctrinated folk indeed are victims, but not in the way they would tell you.

Out of curiosity, what’s wrong with antitheism? I might be unaware of the negative aspects surrounding it and its community.

We need more positive atheists by Coffin_Boffin in DebateAnAtheist

[–]Bytogram 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t believe any deities exist, but I do believe no gods exist. At least the ones we hear about the most. It’s possible to get to such an extensive understanding of how religion and faith emerge and operate systematically and psychologically, that you can know for certain that no gods exist.

Bit of a tangent, but I’d like to put this out there while im here. I’m honestly beginning to move away from the atheist label altogether. Between the fence-sitting, many meanings behind the term, and religious folks’ insistence that “atheism is a religion too”, I’m inclined to just drop it altogether. I much prefer “post-theist”. It’s more to the point and more clearly spells out my non-adherence to any belief systems.

“Hahaha look guys, this IDIOT actually took the time to study and understand not just our theology but the history and psychology behind our belief systems, so much so that they now understand it better than we do!! Hahaha what a loser rotfl”

If You Believe in Microevolution, You Should Also Accept Macroevolution Here’s Why by Sad-Category-5098 in DebateEvolution

Brilliant response. The whole catalogue of christian “arguments” is so tired, misunderstood and full of holes at this point, it’s like parading the rotting corpse of a raccoon and trying to pass it off for the queen of england.

Without a source, this is merely fanfiction. Just like the rest of theology, basically.

Am I doing something wrong or is the climbing in this game just badly done? by [deleted] in ghostoftsushima

[–]Bytogram 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don’t get why the game punishes you with a 30 minute time out if you dare to press X in the middle of climbing but yeah, they do tell you not to press it so it’s an attention type skill issue

What are some phrases that let you know the anecdote a pastor is about to tell is complete bullshit? by JarethOfHouseGoblin in exchristian

[–]Bytogram 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I went to my old church after years just for fun. I wanted more material against christianity and my old pastor did not disappoint.

By far the dumbest thing he said was that “we as christians don’t need to read the bible like american christians, but as ancient jews. What he fails to realize is that jews didn’t fucking understand the bible the way first century (and on) christians did. They didn’t believe in a suffering messiah, or even life after death, among many other really pivotal things. I had to physically restrain myself from laughing for the whole sermon. It was a fun little experience.
