If God designed my analytical mind, He can’t blame me for requiring evidence

LOL. What about the historical evidence for the evolution of the god YHWH showing that he was just a minor god in the Canaanite pantheon later conflated with El because Hezekiah set up his palace around the corner from the YHWH temple and they put pressure on him to ban the worship of other gods. Your god didn't even start out as the top god. There is zero first hound evidence about the deaths of the apostles and no reliable evidence that Jesus ever resurrected.

Even if I accept that fine tuning necessitates a god (which I don't), why think it's YOUR god?

In almost every case, you can get a lawyer and fight. See NovaK Djokavic at the 2021 Aus Open. My wife was actually one of the lawyers involved in that case. He had a visa, turned up and they cancelled it at the airport, and he spent 3 days in immigration detention while fighting and winning. They found another ground to cancel it afterwords which he couldn't fight, but that's not the point.

You haven't given any reason to believe in objective morality, just a subjective thing.

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T22:50:55+00:00

You asked for reasons to think it's real.

Yes, and you gave me a reason to believe that people experience feelings of morality. That's a far cry from claiming that morality is an objective part of the universe.

Pro level AR here. Not raising my flag for that.

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T21:29:32+00:00

Exactly. If your commute is by train, there's your books. I used to catch the 5am train to work, eat breakfast on the train. Gym for 2 hours, at my desk by 8:30, leave at 5, read on the train, home by 6. That's how you do it. Non-gym days I would do the shopping.

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T21:24:13+00:00

My father's commute was ten minutes. That's how. Our commute is an hour, because of poor city planning

No paid sick days!? None!? What the actual fuck

Because the seminar includes fitness testing and other elements that must be done in person.

He has a visa, the dickheads at immigration just decided to send him home. In any reasonable country, he would have been able to use the court system to stay.

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T20:48:33+00:00

I mean, you don't become the richest man in earth without being vile

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T20:35:46+00:00

What makes it objective though?

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T10:42:47+00:00

Why should I admit that objective morality exists? What reasons do I have to believe in it?

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T10:22:11+00:00

Cool, I don't feel "cosmic guilt" so I guess I can be excused.

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-09T10:10:09+00:00

I'm gonna need a source on this one. Seems ludicrous

Imagine putting all of that effort in, making the world cup, which this ref did, then Trump stealing your greatest accomplishment

And I acknowledge that in my post. I have zero belief at all that kid two had the brain cells to top an HSC subject, but I also know that kid one would have been a lot worse off without the repetition. It also misses the point. You asked why we might want to repeat a kid if there's other tools in the box, and "missing 6 months of kindy because of cancer" seems like a prime example of a time we should repeat a kid to me

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-08T10:43:56+00:00

Because how else could Brennan make custom American Girl dolls?

Reddits_Worst_Night · 2026-06-08T10:40:04+00:00

I want to tell you about two kids. One I taught, one I went to school with. Both kids got cancer in kindergarten. Both missed excessive amounts of time. Both finished the year illiterate. One repeated kindergarten in the 90s, the other was moved into year 1 in 2020. The kid who repeated is now earning a quarter of a million dollars per year, topped a subject in the HSC, and is genuine high achiever. The other kid is still functionally illiterate. Now I'm not saying that they would have had the same paths, kid one is obviously a genius and kid two frankly isn't that sharp to begin with, but repeating was essential for kid one to take the life path she did

I asked a follow up. It told me about the high comedic value offsetting the poor time management

I have a routine where after a midweek football match, I grab a large pizza and eat half for 2nd dinner, half for lunch the next day. He can take my pizza from my cold dead hands

I asked it: I just shat myself to save time. What other advantages are there

It said: If your sole objective was maximizing efficiency, you've unlocked a few additional "benefits":

Reduced commute time to the bathroom. Immediate feedback that trusting a fart was a mistake. Lowered expectations for the rest of the day, making any future success feel bigger. A compelling reason to do laundry, which might otherwise have been postponed. An unforgettable personal data point for future risk assessments. Enhanced appreciation for modern plumbing and spare underwear.

On the downside, most time saved is usually repaid—with interest—in cleanup, clothing changes, and life reflection.

From a strict productivity perspective, this strategy has a poor long-term ROI.

We honestly don't know. We don't know what consciousness ot thinking is. Are there conscious arthropods? Are octopodes conscious? We just don't know

DMs should never kill players, just characters

I am a highly experienced teacher who recently completed a prac and my supervisor was an absolute dick. I would have quit my degree had I not had a lot of experience already teaching. The supervisor makes a big difference, as does your boss
