If you're producing word salad, you can't be refuted. But you also aren't countering anything. Phrases should have meaning, but you use phrases without meaning while at the same time trying to attribute meaning to natural phenomena, who don't have it. Quite ironic.

What a bunch of horseshit. He superimposes his modern views on the text. He ignores what it actually says. He ignores the historical context in which it was written and pretends we have to take the "wisdom" he interprets into the text as given, because of it's antiquity. He is a bigger threat to Christianity than outspoken anti-theists like me, because he undermines the religion.

>the catastrophic denial of the subject in the science as worldview formulation There is no such denial. >There is no more pressing issue in terms of species survival. I don't see humans as endangered. And you don't give any concrete danger to "species survival". >"[Humanity is] to be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape." I get it that wise sayings and literature and quotes are more fun than equations and algorithms, but the former are simply not useful to understand anything really complex or novel. They are not that deep.

@julioalonzo1383 "Materialist physicalists" don't say that there is only matter. Matter is a form of energy. It behaves according to certain universal principles. Your metaphysics is a thousand years out of date.

@TheClassicWorld If you can't even accomplish a simple epistemic task like getting over your belief in gods, the rest of philosophy is really completely wasted on you. You are reasoning towards a goal, not trying to gain clarity.

@M P He's an atheist and he undermines your entire religion.
