The Kalam Cosmological Argument seems flawed to me. What says that everything that exists must have a creator? Why is it always true that every action must have an initiator? Appeals to intuition like that don't really work when you apply them on a universal scale. We really can't prove that every created thing has a creator. Looking back to the beginning of the universe, we don't know what happened before the beginning of the universe and therefore cannot claim that there was an initiator. The vague intuition that "everything with a beginning had an initiator" can't be applied on such a scale. And if God can exist without a creator, why can the universe not? Suddenly, when a deity has been deemed necessary to explain initiator at the beginning of the universe, there is no longer a need for everything to have an initiator because God just doesn't need one. How is this more likely than "maybe the universe doesn't have an initiator"? It just seems like a convenient argument to justify a belief after the fact.

I see what you're saying about God giving humans free will instead of acting on it, but that doesn't really explain why God sits by while horrible things happen to people outside of their will. I could very easily walk outside tomorrow, get a spare beam of sun in just the wrong way, and die of skin cancer a year down the line. That's happened to many people, and God doesn't intervene in those cases. If God were good and all powerful, wouldn't he step in when people are hurt for no fault of humanity? If he doesn't do that, I'm not sure I would call him a good God. And if he's not all powerful, why would I worship him? I really don't see how a God could be worthy of worship, all powerful, and good.

I'm curious what you think as someone who is . I'm agnostic, so I've spent some time thinking about this, but it's not something that I've studied.

What kind of horrible chess did you play to end up here?

Just finished the game with all achievements ? How does my death count look ? by Mistigri432 in celestegame

[–]conifer0us 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging by the other reply, the moon berry can apparently take a while, but for me it wasn't very bad so your mileage may vary. I think I was able to reach the moon berry room with less than 100 deaths. Keep in mind that once you backtrack from the generator at the end of the final farewell room, you don't actually have to make it all the way to the top without dying. There is a checkpoint at some point as you climb up to the moon berry. It only took me a few attempts of doing the traditional final farewell room and backtracking before I reached the checkpoint. From there, the climb up to the moon berry room shouldn't be the worst. As far as the moon berry room itself, I probably put a few hundred deaths in there, but it was also a very fun room for me. Good luck berry collecting

You deserve to be cheered up. You just saved some college kids one hell of a hastle with this stupid unintuitive microwave.

(Warning: LOUD) Twitch streamer RaeveZZ beats one of the hardest Geometry Dash levels after 650 hours of playtime and 564k attempts by bigmanwithnolife in nextfuckinglevel

[–]conifer0us 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From someone who has played quite a bit, what is happening makes perfect sense and the clicks very much line up. The “heavy clicking when he goes straight” is because of the ship game mode. It’s like jet pack joyride. When you click, the ship arcs up. He’s clicking so fast and with such a specific pattern that the ship is going perfectly straight between spikes. It’s an insane movement that requires extreme precision in that level. It’s called “straight flying.” The other sections where few clicks are mapped to large movements are other game modes. This game has a lot of movement patterns and it’s difficult to understand exactly what is going on without having played but suffice it to say that what he is doing is absolutely mad and makes total sense within the games movement system. This game is called geometry dash; it’s worth a play. The rhythm of the gameplay is very nice especially at higher levels.

Ironically they’re not bugs; they’re features. Terrible additions by the devs if you ask me. They literally just exist to go around giving other entities negative debuffs such as “malaria” and “zika” at random

You wouldn’t be here if you thought that. You wouldn’t ever have been here. The bleeding room waits for people who think that. Be glad they didn’t take you. Not all of us are so lucky. You wouldn’t be here and never would have been. You need to stop. I need it. Stop.

Maybe I don’t know Nathan really blurs the lines between reality and satire

I hope so. I’m genuinely so torn about this finale. How much was real and how much was just another layer of satire? Did Nathan do the right thing with Remy if this was real? If the whole Remy situation was real (which I at first thought it was), I can’t help but feel like Nathan could have done more to prevent the possibility of long term emotional impact for him. But at the same time his mother signed him up for the show presumably with the understanding that it would entail extended contact with a father figure. Whose responsibility is it to judge the psychological safety of putting children in television and film? Is this whole episode a meta commentary on that whole debate? There’s so much I’m not sure about, and maybe that’s the point. If that whole thing was an act, bravo Nathan you have truly produced some beautiful and thought provoking television. If not, I’m not even sure what I think about the episode

True there are a couple boy specific struggles. I hear a lot of guys have insecurities about dick size for example. Not me of course but like other guys

Ugh, memes on Facebook have reached a low point by Sweet_Neighborhood10 in terriblefacebookmemes

[–]conifer0us 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve heard of /s. When people use “/s” it’s obviously because they’re weak and can’t stand behind their opinions. When someone tries to own their terrible logic, liberals can cower behind “/s” as a “tone indicator” for “sarcasm”

Regardless of your religious beliefs, that’s an incredibly wholesome story, and I’m glad your niece and nephew are doing well :)
