    zakira, are you saying that God made BLACKLAC's computer?

    BLACKLAC dude you've been holding out on us. To think that all these years they've been looking for The Holy Grail and there you've been clacking away quietly on The Holy PC. HAL 9000 eat your heart out. Shang is pissed. I bet that mutherfucker could open Star Wars 986,397 times without frame rate loss. Ebay that shit!

    Things move other things. The movement and the things themselves are of the same stuff. That stuff is everywhere in everything & connected. Call it God if you want.

    Hmm... a lot of people seem to be spouting off their pie in the sky beliefs and ideals. I see it every day, and it gets more and more old every time I see it. I got news for you guys, none of it means anything. Humans are inherently self-centered creatures, even at our most altruistic. When you get down to it, no one does anything for anyone besides themselves. And if they did, they would just be fulfilling the ambitions of someone else, or simply doing things for no reason at all.

    Altruism: Making yourself feel good by embracing the selfishness of others.

    If you realize this simple truth, you will inevitably come to the conclusion that things which benefit others over the self (and institutions that promote said things) are as meaningless as anything else.

    All things lack inherent meaning. They simply exist, or do not. Good/bad, right/wrong, all lie in your perception of the world, and nowhere else.

    Before anyone responds, I'd like to clarify that this is not directed at anyone in particular, and you should not take it personally. I'm just trying to promote a general sense of awareness that life is meaningless. It's neither a good or bad thing. But it is a thing which I accept is true, and am happier having accepted. But what do I know? I'm just some douche spreading his worthless opinion on an internet forum.

    0_o really? lets forget the fact that if I really wanted to I could go track down the people who made it and talk to them, about the meaning of... the computer?

    Look, I'm not trying to push anything on anyone, I just found it funny that someone would be "bemused" about a person not believing in god when they themselves have no idea if there is a god.

    But to answer your question Toshiba made my computer, I know this because when I did the research on what computer I wanted Toshiba in the end had what I wanted in the 700$ price range. When I do the research on the idea of "god" I get nothing, no brand, no spec, so why bother wasting my time thinking there is a god? faith? faith is naive.

    @BLACKLAC,

    Listen, I'm not here to convince you that there is a god or anything. I always say if a person wants to be convinced he will be convinced otherwise it wont happen. And to be honest I don't feel like you want to strike a good discussion. Whatever I will say you will make a joke out of it without answering in a very sensible matter.

    So if you are serious and not the kind of person whom I think you are right now, you can answer my questions first than we can move on to a better discussion. If not, please ignore the whole thing. I don't want to waste my time. I have better things to do.

    I know for sure god exists or at least existed at some point but of course i've got no idea how everything got put into place, one day science might prove how it all began and then we'd know for sure what god was/is.

    Denying god existed makes about much sense as saying that everything here right know doesn't exist, maybe i'm stupid though... meh.

    It's best to just drop it, it isn't like I'm going to hear anything new on the argument anyway, Just agree to disagree I guess.


    I don't think you're stupid. For the record I'm Agnostic

    Here's a tip. Whenever anyone asks you if you think God exists, the correct answer is: "I don't care." Because regardless of if God exists or not, the universe just keeps on being what it is, and what it always has been. So it really doesn't matter what you believe, does it?

    Believe in the thoughts you're having right now, as that's all you can trust. [​IMG]

    I saw on 1 programme some scientists who couldn't explain how everything came to be believed it all came from nothing. What was there before the big bang (theory)? Nothing existed not even time so how can everything come from nothing?

    You joke but some people given the right circumstances will actually believe you. I'm planning on doing a documentary called "What does it take to start a religion?" I think it's going to be pure hell bent comedy.

    On the philosophy side of things if god created everything, what created god? Of course the general answer to this is "God has always been there." If that is the answer to who created god, why couldn't the same thing be said about the universe?

    If time is infinite isn't there a lot of time in essence for numerous shit to just line up eventually? Like I don't know....life? Magic? Maybe even BooBerry cereal.

    If you think how miraculous it is that Booberry was ever created I can see how you can have a strict religious faith...I mean come on. It's Booberry.

    Time isn't infinite according to popular science as far as i know.

    I watched that Dane Cook vid and couldn't find it funny. I really didn't understand why people were laughing.

    Faith is a truly interesting thing if you think about it and we all have some in some way or another. It's just sad when people use it to get people to do things they might not normally do. [​IMG]

    If god is going to send me to hell just for not believing in him, then I don't want to hang with him anyways. He sounds like a dick.

    Hmm... as long as we're talking philosophy, here's an interesting philosophical question to keep you up at night. How do we know that we exist in a persistent reality? In other words, that we don't exist in a grossly unlikely, but nevertheless possible, fleeting pocket of reality. One that actually briefly makes it seem as if we are living in a universe that makes sense and is logical, but will shortly descend into a sea of chaos. Or to put it more simply, how do you know the entire universe isn't going to start melting five seconds from now?

    Dane is a hack, George Carlin is the truth. I would say RIP but that would be sacrilegious. He's not resting, he's feeding worms. The energy has dispersed, he's no longer George Carlin anymore.

    He's worm poop and so shall we all be. Just before the great passage through the slimey rectum we should all try and be the best bodies of water we can be.

    But some of us need some motivation. So for all the would be murderers, thieves, Jezebels, and lovers of the twilight movie franchise; the invisible man.......may be watching.
