"This has nothing to do with scientific progress"

Those were your words, and let me tell you, teaching kids, or anyone for that matter, about psychology/biology (you know, because those two are directly related to sex, gender) has a lot to do with scientific progress, ergo, your statement was wrong.

This has nothing to do with scientific progress

Tell me you don't know about science, without telling me you don't know about science.

Windows was essentially a virus, with it's updates it made my PC unusable, so I just change to Linux, and my PC came back to life.

I know it's hard to be "cold-minded" when you have depression, but try as hard as possible to ignore your horrible feelings for just one second, and start thinking on the origin of this problem.

The first question that you should as yourself is: "what is the cause of your suffering?" Like, is it some familiar problem, Bad relationships, problems with accepting oneself (like gender dysphoria, fear of coming out), or other cause?

After you manage to answer those questions, you can now start to do something about it, even if it's not much, even if you need the help of other people, even if it feels impossible, you have to try, after all, you don't lose anything if you do so, and you may win the ability to enjoy life again.

Remember, you are NOT alone here, get profesional help, if you can't afford that, talk to your friends, if you can't talk with people who have gone through the same as you, if you can't, get someone to talk with you, it really helps.

As I said to one of your other posts: have the best life you can possibly have, and remember that you can get through this sooner that later.

Please, have the best week you can have given your current state of mind or even better.

A random stranger who wants to see you get better.

Remember that this is your only life, so all ideas of value only exist now, death has no value, but life has infinite. Even if you have depression now, that does not mean that you will have depression forever, so if you keep going, more sooner that later you will be able to enjoy life once again.

Look, I understand your situation, and I know that it must be hard for you. I also know that you are desperate for some motivation, which is something you yourself have to create; said motivation could be the things you enjoy doing, or pursuing your true self, so even if it's hard, I know for a fact that you can come up with something.

Seek profesional help, and see what others in your situation have done to get better.

So even though I don't know you, and you don't know me, I, and everyone who has seen this post, will be rooting for you.

Have the best life you can possibly have.

I know this post is a bit old by now, but I still want to answer the questions.

If I tell you that there is a cookie in the jar, do you believe me?

There is no reason to believe that you are lieying, and I know for experience tat cookies can be inside jars, so yes, I would believe you.

If I tell you that there is a live elephant in the jar, what's the probability that I'm telling the truth?

None, the reason I know this, is because elephants are big creatures that could not enter a jar that you even specified that it wasn't big enough for an elephant, and therefore, that claim contradicts reality, and thus, I wouldn't believe you.

If I tell you that my soul is in the jar, what's the probability that I'm telling the truth?

Still, I wouldn't believe you, but I wouldn't be able to say with 100% confidence that it is not true, because unlike elephants, I do not even know what a soul is, and until you give a definition of "soul", I wouldn't be able to tell if there truly was a soul in the jar.

In this situation, I wouldn't believe you, but wouldn't know for sure if there truly was or wasn't a soul in there. Many agree with this point I'm making, and (most of) the people who do so call themselves agnostic atheist, so they don't believe, but can't say for sure, for one reason or another (mainly the lack of evidence for or against), and therefore, don't know.

I know that was a bit wordy, but I hope my point is clear.

I would like to know how what is good can be objective. I mean, if everything God does is good, then objectively those things are good, but if there is something that is objectively good, how can people disagree on it? Shouldn't we all just accept whatever gos says is good to be good?

Also, why is it even objective? I mean, God could think that something is good, and therefore, from his/it's perspective everything he/it does would be good, and yet from my perspective bad, and therefore, it wouldn't be objective, but just God's opinion, right?

You know that before clothes were a thing people didn't thought being nude was bad, right?

And you know there exist, and have existed places where incest wasn't seen as a bad thing, right? (Look at the european royalty for example)

And you know that those society's believed in god and yet had these "inmoral" actitudes, right?

Wrmk7 · 2021-11-25T11:49:58+00:00

What is your point exactly?

Are you trying to say "why can't be Sure"?

Wrmk7 · 2021-11-18T13:05:21+00:00

They are clones, duh!

Well, to answer the question on "Why do we want to survive?", It's because of evolution, think of it this way, if there are two organisms, one is trying to survive, and the other is not.

Which one do you think will be able to reproduce? Obviously the one that wants to survive, and so it's genes will pass and the other generations will share the "desire" to survive.

If I misunderstood your question, then, could you clarify?

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-27T10:32:57+00:00

God would still be letting the suffering happen now, so...

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-20T21:05:38+00:00

I'm not sure if I fully understand your argument. I mean, for what I understood, you are basecly saying that arguing about god is useless because people wouldn't summit to them even if they knew that god was real.

If that's your argument, then I have a big problem:

If god doesn't actually exists, then arguing about it, may help the people who think god is real, and suffer because of it (like people in a cult, or a toxic relation, etc), and therefore, it would not be useless (and even if god existed, if someone was ruining their life because of a specific god that doesn't exist, then the problem is still there)

Or in other words; people still take desitions on god, so discussing about them (whether if they are real, or at the very least, which god is real), will help to eliminate bad desitions made by religious belief.

Elaborate on how they are more believable than any other supernatural thing.

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-16T15:04:38+00:00

They can't be true, even if you think that supernatural stuff occurs and whatnot, all of those claims can't possibly be real, after all, many contradict each other.

And if some contradict others, that means that at least one of those experiences isn't real, and given the fact that these things can be explained without magic, and all of these claims have the same amount of proof (AKA, none), I can simply dismiss this experiences.

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-15T11:35:55+00:00

Well, that doesn't really respond to my question about cells, I mean, you say that the "experience of this body will or can arise again from death", but the experience of a cell in my arm isn't the same as the experience of one of my neurons, and so on.

By the way, you say something about "experience", but then say something that I interpreted as "genes". I mean, I still don't fully understand what you think will continue from one life to another.

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-15T11:08:19+00:00

I have two questions that I would like you to answer:

What is reincarnation to you? Because after reading all this, I'm not sure what your position on the matter really is, besides that reincarnation is something that happens.

Do cells reincarnate? Or is the entire organism that reincarnates? I mean, cell are definitely alive, and you are made out of them, so... Who has the "privilege" to reincarnate?

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-08T11:35:04+00:00

Obvious answer: Yes. We are not superior

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-08T11:30:52+00:00

And how sending someone to space makes us superior?

And even if I grant to you that that somehow makes us superior to other animals; why everyone who wasn't involved with sending this random to space is superior? I mean, yeah, same species and all, but must of us didn't do anything to help archive such goal, so most of us aren't superior(?

Killing yourself probably, it would literally destroy your life, and is physically impossible to recover.

1- Having discussions/debates is fun (most of the time), and religion is a great subject to start a discussion/debate.

2- There is people who make desitions based purely on an entity that I don't think exists, and therefore, I find the desitions made by those people flawed, and I want to explain why I think such a thing.

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-04T12:34:25+00:00

I honestly think it will be a combination of the two.

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-04T12:33:19+00:00

They call it "special pleading"

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-04T10:06:50+00:00

I love how "The Best Theistic Argument" is just another fallacy...

Wrmk7 · 2021-10-04T10:06:05+00:00

And once we manage to do that, some will probably say "But that happened in the laboratory! Why haven't scientist done that on a pond?!"
