It's the same coin, it's only insidious bc of the pernicious nature of value...😉

This is imagration problem writ large "they took our job's" . The otherside of that coin is, not enough people were clever enough to solve the problem... Well, that's karma for you... 🙄 Something trolls know very little about,,,

Fued is to strong a word to use for someone I'd love to share a beer with, while we shoot the, metaphorical, shit... 😇

As @iNow point's this is two different questions: 1/ The advantage of God's starts by trying to teach children the advantages of not taking more than they need, for instance, we need to chop down tree's to build our home's so we create a God of the tree's that we thank for providing our home's, but will be angered if we take a tree that we don't need and will strike down in some way that is fearful; when we forget that lesson we get Easter Island 2/ The advantages of religiosity, started because someone has a good idea that makes sense (at the time) and works to make thing's better for most people, it spreads because of that and the powerful teaching tool that's God. The problem we have now is that we 'know' there's no god of the tree's, is the, so called, sofistication of the 'science' of politics; the Trump's of this world are very good at making a specious idea seem like it's good and it spreads through all the children that know there's no bogie man to make them think twice.

Did you stop learning when your teacher stopped teaching? 3 thousand years of yesterday is but an excuse for tomorrow

Who said the world needs saving?

Why were the Beatles so popular?

Indeed, but it could have set us back a few year's, if when the apple fell he said "therefore magic happens"... 🧐 I think you're thinking of Neitzche... 😉

Neither, A Single Death Is a Tragedy; A Million Deaths Is a Statistic, this statement isn't as harsh as it seems to be, whomsoever said it; we can't predict the action of a single human, but we can, with some precision, predict the actions of the average human; which is just as true today as when Assimov ventured his idea of psycohistory.

As it relates to the topic and my interlocutor @Moontanman this best describes the situation, My karma ran over your dogma. All I was trying to do is explain the value of acceptance in a balanced 'world view' and by extention a more philosophical approach to life. IOW my moment of awe (doesn't match other's), which for me happened when I said to my dog, who was obviously disapointed when we walked past the turning of her favorite route, "you wouldn't be so disapointed, if you didn't expect to go that way.". Unfortunately, I don't speak dog either... 😣 Apologies, it's a habit of mine to automatically add an at when referring to the members of our little club. 🙏

But that's not the nine o'clock news

I'm happy to defend my supposed stupid, you just want to revel in it; but I can tolerate your version... I could be argueing in my spare time...😉

OK, I'll try again; oh what's the point... I won't get any farther than @Mordred did in the nuke discussion, your right because you say so. He didn't assert "that nukes are bad, mkay" and I didn't ask a question "mkay"... Your only making yourself look stupid...

There's some lovely filth down here...

There's none so blind as those who don't want to see.

Exactly, Jesus Christ do I actually have to spell it out for you... 🙄

That's my point, jeez...

OK, what aphorism is your philosophy? But we both know that you're being deliberately obtuse, FFS.

Let's assume nothing, before we assume that god wrote the bible...

No, I made a statement that you failed to address; pedantry is but a parlour game in our quest for answers...😉

That's your privaledge not an answer...

Tolerance is not conditional, but hate is...

And that's your flawed, world view; what ism sums it up for you? Nihilism, perchance? While other's call it murder:

So, you won't tollerate them, because they won't tollerate you; Don't you see the problem with that? What has god got to do with it?

Being tolerant, doesn't mean you have to like their brand of stupid... 😉
