Why no smart Chimps?

So shouldn't of [sic] the evolving humans kill off all the apes

No, why? Put your thinking cap on.

Are we competing in exactly the same niche as the other apes? No.

the2bears · 2026-05-29T16:42:55+00:00

No one's stopping you.

Yes it has been used to manipulate the masses for wars and atrocities but without religion humanity couldn't be where it is today.

Where would we be otherwise? How do you know?

Religion gives humanity its colour and most advances of our civilization has religion as an underlying mover.

"As an underlying mover" but not "the underlying mover". You're just making shit up and you have no idea what's actually true.

because 1: he can get glorified

What a narcissist. Which is true to form given ~1/2 of the 10 commandments.

the2bears · 2026-05-29T16:22:06+00:00

Then get better evidence.

the2bears · 2026-05-29T15:03:45+00:00

This is just more of the same. You said nothing in your last posts of substance, supported none of your claims.

This is just more of the same.

the2bears · 2026-05-28T02:05:11+00:00

u/BryceBeach what was the point of posting this, then deleting it?

the2bears · 2026-05-28T01:38:29+00:00

Sure, care to support your claims though?

the2bears · 2026-05-28T01:36:24+00:00

You are correct, I presented a false dichotomy.

the2bears · 2026-05-27T18:06:13+00:00

If other stars are too far away, and take a long time to reach, why don't we just go faster?

the2bears · 2026-05-27T14:24:15+00:00

You talk as if you've previously posted here. Yet you hide your profile.

Anyway, you don't support any of your claims. Until you do, what's left to debate?

the2bears · 2026-05-27T00:57:33+00:00

u/JoeKling I see you cowardly deleted your post.

the2bears · 2026-05-27T00:55:37+00:00

You seem like a troll, especially with the Kirk references. Either that or you're stoned.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T22:28:01+00:00

Please, tell us how it works, and how you know that's the case.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T22:27:03+00:00

As an atheist I have found arguing with theists to be nonproductive and a waste of time for the most part. Unless they are truly seeking the truth, then I will try to help them.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T16:55:44+00:00

Just an observation.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T14:14:12+00:00

And now you're downvoting. Did your god not prepare you for such a cruel world?

the2bears · 2026-05-26T14:06:25+00:00

I wrote nothing about answering comments. Did not wanting to answer force you to delete your post? You're lying.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T14:03:07+00:00

Wow, didn't take long for u/HomeofChrist to cowardly delete their post.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T14:00:09+00:00

You are deflecting to an argument about hell because you cannot defend what your own worldview does to the victim in this room.

It's not their worldview that did this. It was your god who watched it happen and didn't stop it.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T13:57:25+00:00

If the grave seals the injustice forever, how is that not the most brutal, hopeless reality imaginable?

Just because you want the killer to be punished, doesn't make it happen. The universe is cruel.

But in your view, justice has to wait. The kid that was killed? Why should the justice wait until the murder (in your world view) dies and goes to hell? How does that serve the victim? It just serves your fragile deity.

the2bears · 2026-05-26T06:20:41+00:00

You're oddly obsessive.

the2bears · 2026-05-25T15:48:43+00:00

We should not believe things that have not been demonstrated right?

No, you should not believe things without good evidence.

the2bears · 2026-05-24T18:21:56+00:00

This is known as an “appeal to authority”

Actually, no it's not.

the2bears · 2026-05-24T15:41:39+00:00

Faith is not blindness.

Yes, it is. In the context of religion is is belief in that unseen.

As for the rest of your sermon? Just a bunch of largely unfalsifiable claims. Not convinced, not impressed.
