'Thank you for sharing your experience. I relate in the sense that I have attended church and interpreted the Bible not so literally, but had the desire to educate myself and believe that using it...
I like your blatant misrepresentation of what I said. I'm not going to waste my time with you anymore.
I apologize for my brevity but I actually see your point with the first thing. And I want to clarify that my belief is a loose one, and I don't preach it as definitely true. I do think it's possible...
You're an ironically angry Christian, has anyone ever told you that? Or are you only playing some sort of hothead character because you think it makes you look tough? Ah, so, because an atheist does...
It seems as though you're unintentionally implying that because it is not known, it can not possibly be know, which is of course irrational. That, or you believe that you already have knowledge of...
This may be a bit unrelated but as much as I disagree I find this kind of cynicism attractive. My girlfriend is also markedly cynical in this aspect. I believe that people can believe in God for...
It seems you're avoiding the actual question. All I asked was why you thought life would be meaningless without a God, or as you say, under an atheist paradigm. But you continuously fall back on...
Although I am not an encyclopedia, I had assumed you'd know or be clever enough to look up what satanism is. Satanists worship themselves, in short. It seemed a lot more likely to be the intention of...
Aww, it's sad to see a wilted, cynical ENTP. So, if I am understanding correctly, you seem to believe that people are completely self-interested. Overall, I actually agree. However, it still fails to...
Can you please explain for me why morality can't exist if God doesn't exist? Why does the nonexistence of a God necessitate that love isn't real, and what is it about chemical stuff in the brain...
Let's clarify what a straw man is. In attempt to defeat an opponent's argument, one will create a representation of the argument which is not accurate to the intentions of the arguer being...
Satanism sure is sexy, but don't you care in the event that there is an actual God (creator of the universe)?
Hi, OP is back. I just saw your post after reading the chain of new ones preceding it, and if you look at my most recent responses, you'll see that I answered your question recently, in response to...
A question can not be valid or invalid, as they do not have truth values. It is only statements which attempt to answer questions which can be either, so your nice little rant was a waste of time.
So do you mean to tell me that we can not be sure that 2+2=4 due to a lack of absolute knowledge of all things?
Fallacy of equivocation. The way in which you use God here is different from the way in which I intended. Allow me to clarify: A creator of the universe.
What is it that leads you to be so sure you can't know? Curious on your thought process.
I'm sure there's some degree of merit to NLP, but your repeated displays of spite towards anyone who disagrees are not helping you convince anyone of that!
While I agree with the second premise of NLP: , the conclusion that true knowledge/certainty about objective reality can't be attained, I believe, is false. It's pretty hard to argue that...
To add onto this, my speech professor said to us that all communication is persuasion.
Written by Chris Langan who allegedly has one of the highest I.Q.'s ever recorded and claims to have never met anyone he thought was smarter than him, he summarized in an interview by saying that we...
There's not enough information out there to be able to accurately assess her MBTI without knowing her personally.
Def. like the Japanese standards for men. Guys look best with long hair and girls with short hair! <3
Can you please post the recipe you used? :D That looks splendid!
I'm an ENTP and it's completely accurate except I'm probably more like 40% sexual and 40% lovable, 20% romantic. But the capacity for sexuality, romance, and lovability (which I assume is raw...
Hello, my dear, intelligent glimmer of self-awareness amongst a sea of misguided fools with tragically stifled potential. You sound very much like my younger self, so I like you. Here's my...
I agree, truth is definitely by definition not relative. I said most! I think some of the people who voted truth actually tend to be more relative, but of the people who voted relative they're...
Of course most people will vote truth- no one wants to admit that their personal beliefs may not align with reality!
I'm an ENTP who is predominantly read-write/visual, but I'm auditory when it comes to reading complex essays, (it helps to hear or say it aloud,) and I'm visual & kinesthetic when I'm learning to do...
Childish is exactly right. There is no excuse for allowing one's self to get mad over a differing opinion. Anger is a petty emotion, and I think we are capable of controlling not only how we respond...

: ) Lol! Sorry, I'm monogamous! :P
lol why would I delete my account just because someone challenges me? Anyone is free to be wrong, but it's not going to bother me! Besides, what would be the point of discussions if people ALWAYS...
Careful, you might be sounding a little too typist for their liking. Also, out there- just taken. By a girl. lol.
You're welcome to argue with yourself if you'd like, though. That goes for anyone else who got offended.
Or maybe people just shouldn't be triggered by different opinions. We have control of our actions. I'm tired of this discussion, though.
Ah, well. It's a good thing that I have yet to meet such people, if they do exist. Yet something tells me you assumed I made those broad assumptions despite that I said nothing of the sort. Oh well.
I realized that high-functioning cognition=intelligence, but refrained from saying it lest I be berated more for being pretentious. Ahh I see what you meant, thanks for clarifying.
Ohh you meant generalizations about each type, such as the one I made regarding depth of thought, correct?
I actually agree with you and thank you for providing this insight. I only said it in one post but I actually apologized for my initial wording at one point in how I used the term shallow, but it was...
Most people don't like to consider the possibility that they might be wrong. That's why they stay wrong, more often than not. I am not afraid of being wrong, because I know that I can never be right...
You're right that a lot of premises are missing. That's because they're implied. How does value imply meaning? The answer is tautological: it's in the definition of value.
If people have intrinsic value, then at least one thing in this universe has meaning. In order for something to have meaning, it's true that it has to be assigned by an outside entity. So, the only...
I was actually thinking about this last night- perfection can't be possible for a lot of reasons, but I found it funny how I find the idea of a perfect world boring- which creates a contradiction...
Me too.
tbh it would be quite ironic, wouldn't it?
I really don't have anything to concede on. I think every that can be said has been.
Concede that I am a typist, meaning I apparently think some types are superior to others? If I agreed with all of you on that, I would be lying. And even if I did, you will still all remain...
I'm actually terrible at genetics because the detailed part of genetics, or chemistry, just bore me to no end. I get your point of view but you're really not listening to what I've said in total. You...
Every S-type I have known, when I would talk to them about certain topics, it was like hitting a wall after a certain point b/c the type of thinking I was doing just didn't interest them. On the flip...'
