How to debate time efficiently?

@Lair77
The reason why I don't debate here.

Far too time consuming to research and do a proper job.

A totally blind person functions without light receptors and therefore makes no internal assessments relative to light.

For sure, totally blind people use other functioning sensory receptors to compensate for their loss of sight.

Nonetheless it is not possible to actually detect light with via ones ears, nose or skin.

I exist day to day and an essential part of the process is making data assessments.

One would assume that the concept of slave inevitably means that the enslaved can be utilised in any which way, irrespective of the slave's former ideological position.

Master... What are you doing Slave?

Slave... I'm praying to my GOD.

Master... Get on with your work and don't be impudent.

Sort of thing.

Do photon detection machines for blind people provide a braille print out, or voice output. Or do blind people rely upon a third party to tell them the truth.

Nonetheless, light waves within the visible range,  are obviously apparent to a person with functioning receptors.

Procreational sex is what it is.

Recreational sex is the alternative.

Both stem from the same basic instinct.

Which is not something that we cannot control.

We can attempt to suppress it.

But it will out eventually.

Bill Maher says being trans is trendy

@PREZ-HILTON
For sure.

Trans is bang on trend.

Plain gay became boring. Even dressing it up as cosmetically adapted men in skirts and women in a suit and tie, awash with tattoos is now  run of the mill.

We now need the frisson of not knowing if there's a dick or not under the knickers to make it exciting. 

How will the sexual trend setters get their kicks next?

Endless Ukraine war

@Greyparrot
Putin's objective was never peace.

Putin's assumption was an immediate Ukrainian capitulation in the face of overwhelming odds.

But he underestimated the courage and solidarity of the Ukrainian people.

Now he's between a rock and a hard place.


So.

Not sure where your downer on the U.K. stems from. But you do seem to have a tendency to want to blame everyone but the real culprit. 

Maybe you have a thing for bad guys.

I’ve Started The Keto Diet Within The Past Week.

@PREZ-HILTON


I simply point out the known fact that most attempts at lifestyle and dietary change are short term and whimsical.

So a few people will make and sustain a change of behaviour....But only a few.

So YES the objective is a permanent lifestyle change.


Perhaps there are a lot of people out there who are unable to make sensible choices for themselves.

But everyone out there with a modicum of common sense should know what it takes to be fit and healthy. It's doing it that is the stumbling block.


Remind me to ask Reece101 how he's getting on in 6 months time.

Though eating a pork belly wasn't a good start.

No apology necessary, as my initial definition was perfectly correct.

A diet.....What one consumes

Or to diet.....Restrictive or specialized food intake, for medical reasons or an attempt to loose weight.

Dieting is a common enough concept, so what's your problem?

Eating a healthy diet needs to be a regular and permanent lifestyle choice, rather than something one does every now and then when self esteem is low.

And as I keep saying, a healthy body is as much about exercise as it is about diet.

How do you actually test a vaccine without actually testing the vaccine?

To truly test/know the long term effects of a vaccine, one would need a time machine.

I think Eve evolved first.

GOD only evolved 2 or 3 thousand years ago...The Abrahamic one that is

Though obviously, until there was a human that could perform more complex data processing tasks, there would have been no GOD.

My money is on the Sun GOD being the first, which is actually much nearer the mark in terms of both logic and realism.

Diet or to diet?

Relative of course.

In a plentiful, affluent society the base instinct for nutrition is often overfed.

Therefore one needs to think sensibly and positively about ones nutritional intake. 

Similarly in a plentiful and affluent society, the essential need for bodily exercise is often overlooked.

The sum total of laziness and an unnecessary and unbalanced level of food intake will inevitably lead to physical and mental health problems.

Dieting, as in temporary faddy eating regimes, is proven time and time again to be ineffective as a long term solution.

More often than not such lifestyle behaviour will tend to exacerbate associated physical and mental health problems in the long term.

Poor formative education/conditioning in regard to nutrition and exercise will also help to lay the foundations for poor health in later life.

Feed your kids fatty, stodgy processed fast food and they will grow up craving the stuff.

Similarly, allow your kids to sit on their backsides in their rooms all day and that is what they will get used to.


An ongoing  balanced diet, coupled with regular exercise is all one needs to stay positive and fit.

The story of Adam and Eve is a story of Adam and Eve.

A sort of very naive creation hypothesis with references to human sexuality thrown in.

All written by naive scholars back in the day when scholars knew a lot less than they do now.

And in short, unless the concieved zygote posesses a specific SRY gene it will develop into a female.

So fundamentally we are all the same, but sex is nonetheless determined at conception.

People cluster.

It's a survival strategy.

Ideology provides an excuse to cluster.

Though why would GODDO wear clothes.

Prior to human bashfulness, weren't clothes a temperature related thing?

OK. So maybe it gets cold in heaven.

I'm guessing a very high cut, paisley patterned Y front.

And sandals with socks.

@TWS1405
Everyone perceives difference and internally discriminates.

Output will vary relative to how we have been conditioned to consolidate data preferences.

Also....Maybe sub-conscious signalling is stronger in some ethnic groups.

Nature over nurture as it were.

After all, species evolution is a slow process, and the amalgamation of sub-groups is a relatively recent phenomena.

Anyone can study the Bible.

And it's fair to say that most who would label as theist, have probably never studied the bible, or even read it from cover to cover.

Whereas, both ardent theists and ardent atheists will undoubtedly have studied the bible.....See Stephen.

My knowledge of the bible is probably as good as a basic theists would be.

Notwithstanding that the whole tree of knowledge thing is all about the human fascination with sexuality.

Well, there is theistic data and we can all share it and conclude variously.

And some conclusions are labelled as atheist.

Which leads to contention.

And one would hope that contention in a discussion forum would also lead to two way fun.

1. You are human and a machine/device will be what it is, you will not necessarily have the same emotional requirements.

     The point of existence may be greater than an individual human's internal need for a purpose greater than it's necessary purpose.


2. The idea of a direct download of human consciousness from brain to device has been around for quite a while, and I see no reason why this will not be feasible.

All depends upon "GODS"

1. Magical floaty about blokes?

2. Or a potential relative to intelligence, that gives creation and universal evolution a purpose?

From my viewpoint one of these is more logical than the other.

And also from my viewpoint a sing song  on a Sunday morning is completely unnecessary.

Am I an Atheist?
