False equivalency fallacy.Sports takes no intelligence.It takes emotional and intellectual intelligence to be good in bed.Besides, women do not prefer overtly big...here's the authentic women's penis size chart.
Well, it depends on what sport we talk about. Sports that involves strategy take some sort of intelligence.
As to the size, according to the chart the ideal dick size is already big, around 7 or 8 inches. Evidently, bigger than that is unconfortable for women.

@Kaitlyn
Do you have any data for this? How have you classified "sexually superior?"
Well, the penis size is the best indicator for sexual superiority. If you see all the statistcs about that shown in a map, you'll see that the color representing the biggest size are painted in most part of Africa, and also in Central and South America where blacks migrated as slaves.
Also, blacks have more sexual stamina. I mean if blacks are the best in sports, why not consider them the best in the bed.
There are papers that consider this as a myth, but we have to understand that the superiority is not based on the average but on the maximums, and this is where blacks stand out.

Yeah, I know woke community is trying to fix it the wrong way, but you can't deny the racism against blacks. I've just seen in the news that a black boy was shot in the head by a white old man just for knocking his door.
I also know there are towns where blacks are not welcomed. I've never seen that in Latinamerica.

Human beings developed different capabilities because they adapted to different environments and contexts.
So, you can find creative people in all races, but asians would outperform the other races on this matter, I don't know why. There are other situations in which asians would be outperformed, though, like in sports.
Black people, for example, are physically outstanding. No wonder they thrive in almost all the sports, like athletics, martial arts, boxing, basketball, soccer, etc. They are also sexually superior which allow them to be ubiquitious in the porn industry.

Its like promoting immorality and consumerism didnt exactly pay off for South Korea.
Inmorality has nothing to do with the subject. In fact, be too moral is the problem in South korea for the low birth rate, You are too much conservatives. As far as I know, being a single parent is frowned upon in the South korean society. If you were more flexible in that respect, single women could have children.

What I'm trying to say is that China is using a different approach to dominate the world. The US has long been opening a lot of military bases to bring "democracy" around the world, which in my opinion is not necessary anymore because things have changed a lot since the cold war. Maybe it's necessary for particular cases like the Russia of Putin, but in general the world understands that war is not the best way to solve conflicts.
China has increased the trade and investments in Africa, but the africans are totally unaware that China is going to intervene more in their political affairs, and they won't be able to do anything because China is their best partner. It's not a matter of money, by the way, because China is investing strategically, thinking in a possible world war and their potential enemies like the US or India, that's why they invest in sea ports or power plants.

The problem of the US is to think that domination relies on military power, which is wrong because we're in a different context.
I don't see the US as a threat but China. China is using the economy as a mean for domination, investing vast amounts of money in Africa, Latinamerica and any needed country. The goal of China is to make the world depend on them.

The same happened to Afghanistan, Irak, and in general the whole middle east and Africa (I guess Latinamerica can be included here too).
It doesn't matter how much money the US provide , these countries will never thrive because of the rampant corruption of their political and military elites. They are helpless.

The animal sacrifice was part of the Old Testament of the Bible.When people made God angry, to make peace with God they offered an animal sacrifice.
This is what I said but in other words. I don't know what your point is.

Posted in:
I once heard from Christians that Jesus' sacrifice was meant to stop the jewish ritual of animal sacrifice that aims to forgive one's sins. So if you want to be forgiven you don't need to kill a noble animal anymore because Jesus already did the job for you.
It makes sense to me. But I wish Jesus had done his sacrifice in Maya civilization, these fucking savage people used to sacrifice humans.

Well, I think you just identified the problem.
What if you ban the political party funding or regulate it a bit more so corporates don't put their dirty money, and instead is the federal government that finances the campaigns of republicans and democrats. Political parties wouldnt be conpromised with corporates in this way.

Neither of them. The God of the Christians is just a human being, like all of us, because sometimes he's happy, other times he's in a so bad mood that wants to fuck everyone up, but most of the time he just doesnt give a shit what happen to the world.
This is Jehova, the God of Christians, so human as the ones who wrote the bible. 😆

that doesn't mean that God doesn't exist.
Estearn beliefs dont deny God, they just define God slightly different from Christianity. I think the main similarity is that God is love. The main difference is that for Christianity God is a particular almighty being separated from humanity while new age defines God as the whole universe that involves everything incluiding humanity. So, when Jesus said I'm God, he was right according to the eastern beliefs. And so are we, we're God, we are the creator of this reality which means our future depends only on us.

@Tradesecret
What does that even mean? Can you think of one religion or one political party or one movement - that isn't aiming to improve people's lives? Even - and now I am invoking the extreme - the Nazi Party thought that they were improving people's lives.
No. Christianity doesnt aim to improve peoples lives but forgive people's sins so that they go to heaven. And I don't say that, Jesus said it.
But it's good you come up with this subject because christianity is the religion that praise the pain, like the pain Jesus felt when he got nailed to the cross. Your faith are based on a sentiment of suffering, which is pathological to me.
Open your mind" - mindfulness, it's all part of the same basic philosophy. Ignoring the brain and the mind - and relying predominantly on feelings and emotions. Hence, why you can identify however you feel? Ignoring the science.
I ask again, what are you talking about? Mindfulness is quite the opposite from what you just said. Meditation aims to get us disconnected from reality, meaning that we get rid of emotions and feelings, especially the negative, which is good for our mental and physical health.
I don't understand why someone can be opposed to it. Even the science confirmed the benefits of meditation, which is quite similar to praying.

You mean elitism? This would say that anyone believing otherwise is not educated or reasonable. Sure, that would make sense in the political and social climate of today.
In all seriuosness, I'm fed up with stupid people. I tolerate them, but I think we should improve our genes so to increase our IQ because most of the time we have to pay for what the schmucks do during the elections. And we're not that far from it, there are great advances in genetics.
I'm not sure if you realize that I am just as capable as you in understanding. You choose to see the ego talking to Jesus, I choose to see an actual being trying to ruin the plan of God. That doesn't make me uneducated or unreasonable, but it sure does make you sound elitist since I don't believe like you.
no, I don't have doubts about that, otherwise I wouldnt have replied. Though, I believe you're too inmersed in your gai

When you say the Christian narrative doesn't work anymore, what do you mean? You stated that America was happier when they espoused to those beliefs. Why not go back to what made them happy instead of introducing something new? Not broke, don't fix it kind of thing.
The only possible way for people to come back to chrsitianity is that you introduce the Holy Inquisition in the US, like in the middle ages. Lol.
The narrative that I was talking about could be seen in the movie of Mel Gibson. It's really powerful, I think Gibson did a favour to christianity showing Jesus as a dude that sacrifice himself to save people from their sins.
To say that Newage is based on logic is "lol-able" because ALL humans base their decisions on emotion. NOBODY is completely logical. I understand that Newage may "work" for some and not others, but it is only working because it will mirror biblical principles.
This is a serious problem that we should deal with not only in relgions but in politics. That explains why there are several sects around the world that makes money at the expense of uneducated people. All in all, I would agree that new age is just for educated and reasonable people.
AND this still has nothing to do with my main point, Christian churches are failing because the people don't want God. The people want someone to pat them on the back and tell them there is nothing wrong with them. Again, it will all meld into one big happy religious cake for everyone to eat. Yay!
Don't take it as a threat. The new age movement just tries to make sense of christianity. You can be christian and practice the new age principles at the same time. I understand you want to stand for your faith, but we have to be prepared for changes because things change over time and we have to accept it.
For example, that story of Jesus in the desert, it's ridiculous because snakes don't speak. But with new age beliefs, you understand that the devil is not a being by itself but part of our nature, something that in psychology is called "the ego". It is well known that the ego comes out any time we're in pain or need. Because of the ego we can even kill people that bother us, but for religions it's the devil that tempt us to do bad things. We do that because we don't want to recognize our evil nature, so we project our evil outwards -it's called psychology projection-, that's how the devil appears. So, going back to the story, Jesus wasn't talking with "a devil" but with himself. He was in pain because he didn't eat for days, so the ego started to show up. Jesus questioned himself why he was fastening. It's not that an evil spirit came down to Jesus to offer him all the wealth, what really happened is that Jesus knew he was capable to get all what he wants and started to think it was not necessary to go through pain, because the ego doesn't like the pain. Now, the story makes sense. You see?

If you are talking about the West, ok. If you are talking about Christianity globally, you are incorrect. Globally, Christianity is still increasing exponentially, in China, In Asia, In Africa and in South America. True, Europe is declining but so is pretty much everything as they die out. Even the Muslims are taking a hit in Europe. In the West it is declining, but I think there is another side to this. As the West becomes more secular, those who were nominally religious are becoming more consistent. Those who are serious have become more committed. For me this is a purifying situation and a necessary thing. Mind you, I also hold to the view that we are in a pre-Christian age, not a post Christian age.
Yeah, christianity is growing in some undeveloped countries like the Africans, I don't see the merit to be honest.
On the other hand, I find them intuitively going to send us into nuts land. Take the whole idea of postmodernism,. that is new age. There is no truth - there are no absolutes. You can be anything you identify as - whether it's a fact or not. That is the essence of it. relativism. no truth but subjective truth. That's why Christianity is at odds with much of the West now. Christianity still teaches ABSOLUTE truth. That is almost considered an anathema.
What are you talking about? new age movement doesn't pretend anything since it is just a collection of eastern beliefs that aim to improve people's lives. I would put it as a practical guideline that revolves around meditation, it has nothing to do with postmodernism or any shit like that.

Yes and many other things that are considered immoral. Many vices that is against the biblical view.
Lol. You should have started saying you're religious. I won't waste my time trying to convince you otherwise.
My point is the Christian system is moving from it's doctrinal tenants because the American people are moving away from them. But since they still think they can believe in God and not do what the Bible says, then they have to change their tenants. Therefore, more and more churches are allowing homosexuals, adultery, fornication, drunkenness, smoking, drug use, promiscuity, etc in the congregations. They lower the bar because they don't want God or the bible but still want the "Christian" image. You will see ecumenical churches more and more and a huge rift between hard-noses and the ecumenical movement. There will soon be no "in between".
Which proves christianity is not suitable to our times any longer. If you see it as the civilized and educated person you're supossed to be, there is no way to believe in a book that is outdated for our standards.
Stuff like "if you don't obey you'll burn in hell", or "Jesus was conceived by an invisible being" is ridiculous to say the least. It reminds me of the communist system in which the communist party is the "God" and the people are the "believers" that should obey the communist guidelines so to have a good live, otherwise they get punished. I've got to check where I read this comparative between the narratives used in christianity and communism, they are quite similar. While communism offers "social justice", christianity offers "love, compassion, and sacrifice" which appeals the ignorant masses. Unfortunately people are moved by narratives and emotions, not logic, so christianity nailed it in this way.
would disagree on this point above. People's happiness can be increased through the obedience of God's word. God created humankind and gave us a manual (the bible). If we follow the directions, things should work. The problem is that people are not following the directions. Just like a car, you can't put oil in the gas tank and then wonder why it doesn't run. Since the Newage beliefs are not the biblical ones (not all, but many), then mankind still will have a deeper form of depression than if they followed biblical principles.
I'm going to ignore what I highlighted because it's just the nonsense I was referring to before.
As I said, the christian narrative doesn't work anymore. Maybe for some people, but not for most of us.
I think new age beliefs are meant to be experienced rather than be just followed. And it doesn't resort to emotions but logic, that is why I believe it's suitable for our times.
"New age" believers practice meditation and they stick to it because it works, and by doing so they are better persons because meditation demands a healthy physical life, meaning no drugs, no alcohol, no bad eating habits, and so on. But even better, as they believe we're all one God, they help other people. So I don't see any bad in "new age" movement.

As for why, Best Korea is on the right track. Look at the immorality of human kind. Nobody wants to be told what to do and that they are wrong. It makes it easier to soothe the conscience if there is no line set except for the easiest one to step over. So lower the bar for everything that way all kinds of terrible things can be considered acceptable and nobody has to bother with conflict.
Afraid I've got to dissent.
I would like to know what you mean with inmorality. Is it homosexuality what you refer to as inmoral?
There's always been depravation in the world, but according to the experts, western society is pretty much safe compared to other times and that is what counts, which doesn't mean there is no more to do because half the world is still in a state of savagery. If there are people doing "inmoral" things behind closed doors, it's none of our business as long as they don't hurt other people.
What we should worry about, as I said, is people's mental health. It's well known religions have a deep influence in people's wellbeing. So, as christianity is on the decline, we will see a decrease in the number of happy people. That's why I think "new age" beliefs could help fill the void christianity is leaving.

@Melcharaz
I think the problem of Melcharaz and all the christian zealots is that they utterly disregard the history of christianity and humanity. Just let's see what he says here:
this is an established precept known throughout thousands of years, there is nothing new under the sun. just a different name from what history may tell us.
Melcharaz ignores that religion evolves as human beings do. We are in an ongoing adaptation to our context so we can't pretend everything should keep immutable as though it were a scientific fact.
Do you know, Melcharaz, that early christians believed in reincarnation? You don't, do ya? Lol.
The Romans took christianity as their official religion not because they were inspired by God, but because they want stability for the Empire. And along the way, the first emperors and popes made some changes to the original scripture, getting rid of some unsuable books so to have a suitable religion for their needs. There have been a lot of changes, so you can't say it was the same as in the past.
Christianity should either evolve as it did once upon a time or die being displaced by other beliefs.

A familiar adage is that Agnostics are just Atheists without balls!
You can't be more wrong. At least you should have read the articles I posted so not to embarass yourself. The article says agnostics are open to "new age" beliefs, as I am, while atheists aren't. I think the difference is clear, atheists are so insanely reluctant to new viewpoints that they are considered a religion by itself.
We the agnostics are not obtuse like atheists, we are just cautious about new information.

Thats because you dont see homosexuality and mass abortions and rape.
See, you have no clue about it. Homosexuality was intense in ancient Greece, for example. Raping was quite the norm in the past. As to the abortion, it was quite rare since in the past it was desireble to have more children to work the field. Abortion is a modern issue because of the overpopulation.
So, I really don't know what you're talking about.

Decline of Christianity = rise of sodomy and other evils
Christianity has been declining since a long time ago and I don't see yet any sodomy or evil around, at least not in advanced and not so advanced societies of the western world.
In fact, I can tell you we're living the most peaceful times ever, even now that we're in the verge of a nuclear war.
What it's true, though, is that there is more depression and anxiety among people in advanced societies where religiousity is low and atheism/agnosticism is high. That's why I put this subject up for discussion. I consider the new age movement as an ideal replacement for christianity. Religions are supposed to fulfill certain needs of people, especially concerning meaning of life, but Christianity is not suitable anymore for this society in which knowledge has surpassed the superstitions that build up christianity.

Let's debate here.
Created:
Firstable, I would like to remark I'm not a believer nor an atheist, but an agnostic, and as such I am open minded to any teaching that really makes sense. You all might understand then why I criticize christianity so fiercely, because it doesnt make sense at all nowadays. So, having that cleared up, let's get down to business.
According to the latest research, Christianity is severely on the decline as it is depicted in the following link.
On the other side, new age movement seems to be gaining more followers around the world thanks to the internet and of course to christian flaws and nonsense found in the bible. By the way, the new age movement is not a religion but a set of beliefs based on eastern religions like budhism or hinduism, which teach stuff like meditation, yoga, karma, reincarnation, and the like. If you check the following link, you'll see these beliefs are embraced by believers as well as non-believers, which is very telling.
As far as I'm concerned, these new age beliefs make more sense than christianity. In fact, I think some of these beliefs do make sense of christianity itself since it has been theorized that Jesus went to the middle east to learn about spirituality. So, what there is in the new testament -and perhaps the OT as well- is very likely a misinterpretation of what Jesus really taught to their disciples.
Then, I ask: Do you think christianity is going to be displaced by this movement or this movement is going to reshape christianity so it gets more sensical?
