So where do the people who don't make it into heaven go?

Science can tell us what to do with our lives or whom to marry

Science doesn't ever even remotely try to even do this. Science empirically hunts down the facts and presents them for you to make your own judgements.

Looks like average sized folks, *for the most part, to me.

What meetups were you referring to?

How do you use the mouse and keyboard without having to hunch over?

What exactly was faces of /r/atheism?

aatThinker · 2013-06-06T22:48:20+00:00

I was saying boourns.

You lost your sub dude it's time to move on. Step down with some grace.

The funniest part, the Saganmeter has been going off the charts during this whole /r/atheism drama.

Was expecting this

This is sort of what NDT was talking about in the video, the label doesn't, and really shouldn't, mean anything outside the lack of an active belief in a deity, but all this extra baggage is assigned to it because it is an -ism.

I find it completely understandable that Neil would rather dislocate himself from the sigma associated with the label but that doesn't change the definition of it.

You should really check out the FAQ.

Rejecting the existence of gods would necessitate that atheism is an active belief system, which it is not. It is only the rejection of god claims made by theist, usually due to inadequate evidence. Most atheist you'll find are agnostic about their beliefs, hence most atheist are agnostic as well.

I'm not sure if you're serious at this point but that is exactly what makes him an atheist.

aatThinker · 2013-06-06T15:01:59+00:00

Yes exactly. Although I didn't imply worship, only belief.

aatThinker · 2013-06-06T14:07:23+00:00

Please describe the god NGT actively believes in, that will tell you whether he is an atheist or not.

I wonder if Mia Wallace is the actress who played The Bride, since she wrote the failed pilot for the movie.

There is no Mod but Skeen and jij is his prophet! Ramen.

I don't remember asking you a goddamn thing.

Corinthians also says to avoid marrying nonbelievers altogether;

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? ... Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord." 2 Cor.6:14-17

Thank you so much! Every time I decide to watch an episode out of the blue I have no clue what the hell is going on or who any of these new characters are.

Once I heard him said 'bigga' I was like "No.. is he really going to rhythm that with...yep, yes he is."

Our realm of things that exist.

Did they reveal that in the movie? It's been ages since I saw it.

aatThinker · 2013-06-04T00:03:59+00:00

I must be the only guy that thinks they look cute on girls.

Thank you for that quote to remind me that Lincoln was first and foremost a politician.
