@MisterChris
You might have met people who refer to themselves as satanists....Just another bunch of people with fantasy concepts in their heads.
And any associated activity is just typically contrived, ritualistic baloney.
No extra-terrestrial, super-natural, fantasy beings actually required.....Just wild imagination.

Nope. These are very usual and very typical puzzles that follow a standard puzzle format...... And as I stated, and ardent puzzler would solve them in a few minutes.
it's the same with anything that requires the application of intelligence...One either possesses the know how or one doesn't.....Hence, why I questioned the validity of Intelligence Quotient.....One must acquire puzzle solving data before one can apply it confidently.....In this respect I would suggest that the human computer is little different to it's electronic cousin....I would further suggest that the quality of the mechanism is a separate issue.

Culture has changed.....Perhaps not to your liking....But that's just tough.
You've either got to run with it, or continue to live in the memories of your halcyon past and ignore the rest.

Was that was just argument for the sake of argument?
Or are you implying that it is mature to dictate to and suppress people who do not fit with your stereotype of a good guy?

Perhaps.....Exactly.
Who said?....Exactly
Nice to see a logical approach.
And it only requires eleven words, one full stop and a question mark.

Hey Mikey...The greasy nipples and the hearty bottom, showering off.....And the worst brats are down the high street for sure...On the job and the sails are sizzling and it feels good Mikey...It feels good....And the Camry's a rite Mikey, the Camry's a rite without a doubt.....That's the porpoise Mikey.......Can you see the wood for the tree now?

I just think that expecting the rest of the World to be exactly as we want it to be, is unreasonable.

I'm not sure what "lively" represents for you.... Probably a personal expectation, perhaps shared with group of similarly conditioned people.....But out there, are millions of others who don't quite share the same worldview.....Some peoples degenerate is now a lot of peoples normal....Perhaps you are getting old... You certainly sound like my dad.

I suppose one enjoys doing puzzles or one doesn't....I do, and quite honestly I could have cracked these two simple puzzles, in a couple of minutes, as would any ardent puzzle solver..... They follow the basic format of of simple word and number puzzles.....No tricks involved.

How come you wrote "tolded" and then got "exactly" right..... And "allivator" sounds nothing like elevator..... And why "base meant" and not basemeant.
Just curious.

We will always discriminate where there is a perceivable difference..... But I would suggest that these days, we are tending to discriminate more on the perceivable differences of wealth and intellect....And nationalism as always, of course.
And so I suppose that wealth and intellect can be as LEFT as they can be RIGHT.....Especially If we look at the political divisions in the U.S. for example.

You have child drag queen story time in free thinking America.
Which has got to be better that religiously oppressed America.
And how can you be certain that all drag queens are atheists?....Isn't that just another theist assumption?

50% isn't a majority it's stalemate....
And the majority of Kantian philosophy is twaddle.......He was too privileged to have to worry about reality......A bit like Marx.
I would suggest that, everyone is the same but also unique...And I would further suggest that "Universalism" is either 100% or not at all.
It would be real easy peasy being paid to sit about and think up nonsense.
So my advice would be.... If such jobs exist then go for it.

@fauxlaw
Your overriding bias defeats your objective in the first sentence.
The good sensible people of the U.S.A simply voted to get rid of the most inept and intellectually challenged President we have seen in recent times.
Next time select yourselves a candidate who can at least string together a coherent sentence...And for goodness sake don't reselect Buffoon Boy.

A wild, sweeping and unsubstantiated interjection Doc.....It's what you're good at.

@janesix
That's just it.....Things are as they are and accepting that is just as good as accepting the assumption of a GOD.
Happiness is found in contentment, and is not necessarily found in an archaic creation hypothesis.
Because some people have been programmed to accept a GOD, and some people have not.....That's only the real difference between Theism and Atheism.

@ethang5
But...I would suggest and in no particular order.
You are bleating the Republican and Christian message.
And you've never seen a man born with one leg...That would be an exception to the rule....LOL....Think about it....His poor Mum.
And religion isn't a creation of man?
And semantics is semantics and therefore as I see it love is a metaphor and sex is sex.
And as an exception to my normal rule, I did in fact vote against Brexit...But I would rather that those in charge would just get on with it now. It won't stop my enjoyment of the Tour de France.
And sometimes we agree and sometimes we don't, that's the fun of it....Debateart would be boring otherwise.

PARANOIA...Defo.
And in no particular order
Have you never seen a tattooed right wing thug.
And you worship the pseudo science of the bible.
And love is a metaphor and sex is sex.
And we are all descended from migrants
And I metaphorically love the U.K.
And abortion is currently a legally permissible procedure...Just like bombing the f**k out of Jonny Foreigner.
And are you admitting that you do not think freely?

Science is the application of intelligence and knowledge to a question or problem...Currently still the preserve of humanity...Well only just.
Do you think that Alternative Intelligence will be purely logical.....If so, then I suggest that A.I. will not consider the illogic of human morality, Mr Spock....You Vulcan softie.

Bloviate...Nice word.....I bloviate, you bloviate, they all like to bloviate.
I don't care because I am British and also because I have a trust in human nature.....If you remember I posted a forum at the start of Trumps tenure where I stated that I had high hopes for his presidency....Sadly he just didn't live up to expectation....There's far more to the job than managing the domestic budget.
And the real U.S. power brokers would never allow a war to start with either Russia or North Korea....Too costly on all fronts.
And in the Middle East one mans peace is another mans desolation.....Same old Israeli led self preservation politics.....Smile for the cameras Mr T.
And for a person so widely travelled you have seemingly gained no insight at all, into the lives of the real, ordinary, aspirational people that exist all over the World.
So, grab your guns and your banjo and run for the hills, because they're all out to get ya.....Because you are suffering from what is known as PARANOIA......I would suggest.

I would suggest that free thinkers are probably those more likely to consider a world view.
But I would agree that free thinkers are less likely to conform with an archaic belief system....That's herd mentality.

@3RU7AL
You said nope....Then almost immediately went on to say that the concept of nothing isn't actually nothing.
I would suggest that true nothingness is impossible to conceptualize.
Big-Bang theorists propose no space.....But have you ever tried to imagine no space.....No space is always surrounded by space.
Space is something even if it is void.
