Hey Wylted.
For sure, Welsh culture is there to be proud of.
Shagging sheep was a right of passage for the Methodist upland farmer.

What are the odds for a prayer being answered.

So what do think that you will be, that is worthy of "something" status?
In fact, what constitutes such an achievement.
Is being a lie abed chicken fancier the pinnacle of success?

Hey the blokes dead and babes on heat will always spread their legs for fame and fortune.
And then they will happily sue for fame and fortune, whilst continuing to spread their legs elsewhere.
Same old shit, that will never cease to fascinate media and public alike.
And if Musk stood for President, dumbasses would vote for him.
We know this, because they voted for Trump.

Undoubtedly.
Hypochondriacs are very well versed in matters biological, medical and surgical.

And never will.
It is estimated to have taken 4 billion years for prokaryotes to develop into multicellular intellectual organisms.
And about 40000 years for hominids to intellectually evolve to the point at which they have conceived and embarked upon the development of an alternative intelligence.
I therefore think it a tad naive to write off AI, after only a decade or so.

Interesting comment at the end there.
I work in the pharmacy industry, And it's quite apparent that a niche group of clients have a morbid obsession with ill health.
And overstretched GP's just throw pills at them, which just exacerbates their problems.
Hypochondria, is a mental health issue that should be taken seriously.

So, we vote A and nothing changes.
And so we vote B.
And nothing changes.
And so.
We will eventually vote A again.
Simply because people always want more than is available.
And testosterone fuelled device fiddlers on a lowbrow website ain't going to to make diddly squat of a difference.
But if it achieves orgasm.
The roll over and go to sleep.
And in the morning, piss, shower and breakfast.
Before repeating the same old mundane chores that facilitate survival on a daily basis.
OK...So WW3 might spice things up a bit.
The irony is, that we might die from natural causes beforehand.
Though as I always say...Everything that occurs is naturally occurring.
SO death by WW3, should rightly be classified as death from natural causes.
As King Arthur would say...Fuck you Guinevere.

Every general debate website that I have visited is essentially the same as you described.
From which I conclude, that such activity has a limited audience and limited interest.
Which when you also consider the day to day demands on a person's time, is probably to be expected.
So out of a potential audience of X billion, there will only ever be Y% of takers.
Expecting otherwise, is a bit like expecting everyone to be a graduate philosopher.

In terms of base function, a pig is pre-programmed very similarly.
Though what it can achieve is obviously different.
And in terms of making sense, theism only makes sense as an inevitable outcome of an evolving intellect.
Whereas creation and existence, as in something from nothing, makes no sense at all.
Though creation and existence by it's very nature, is deterministic...Which makes sense.
Which isn't to say that an Interventionist Super-Intelligence isn't a reasonable hypothesis, and therefore does not make sense.

@AdaptableRatman
The fact that we are not consciously pre-programmed and consequently, consciously conditioned.
Is another indication of the absence of an omniscient creator.
Rather, we are the product of a Universal evolutionary process, wherein intellect inevitably develops without assistance.
I would refer to this as the GOD principle.
MANGOD too, is an inevitable development of a developing Universal intellect.
The individual thinking unit is affected by outside influences which to a large extent, define how it will behave.
Which isn't to suggest that the developed unit is not be subject to it's own governance.

Intolerance of race or religion?
I would suggest that the word has become suitably developed and will therefore incorporate both.

@AdaptableRatman
So what made it?
For sure.
So what made what?
Because, if in one chosen instance of existence isn't reliant upon creation, then why would any instance of existence be reliant upon creation.
The MANGOD hypothesis cannot overcome this issue.
The logical answer is infinite existence.
Though this doesn't seem logical at all.
So, infinite universes is the best bet, and disregard the idea of a beginning.
But this will never appease the mind.

Fascism is as fascism does.
And by modern definition, suitably endorses the intolerance of either individuals or collectives towards a chosen opponent.
Though was originally symbolic of magisterial power.
Such is how we develop language by corruption, and ideas by imagination.

The universe is a mysterious place sometimes ;)
Sure is a fact and no joke.
The Universe is a mystery.
Though we might begin to understand elements of it's functionality.
The Earth is a speck of dust.
As for us...We are our greatest mystery.
And relative to universal time, a nanosecond ago someone came up with the idea of a MANGOD.
And people buzzed with excitement.
Then, less than a nanosecond later.
We created a successor and named it Information Technology.

As I stated elsewhere.
The chief requirement for moderation is moderacy.
Unfortunately, in their current guise, RM is far from moderate.
I'm guessing that ethics wasn't really a decisive factor in the moderation teams decision.
Just good old common sense.
Nonetheless, I hope that RM stays and continues to provide something for us ideological alternatives to get our teeth into.
It's what free critical discussion is all about.

Eat sensibly exercise more. Simple.
Or just move more.
I think that people who do the new fat pill thing will just create another addiction.
It won't encourage them to lead healthier lives.
Same with the vape craze.
Just an alternative chemical addiction.

@yachilviveyachali
I was asking the questions within the context of Judean society 2000 Years ago, and not within the context of latter day mythology and theistic/deistic hypotheses.
When Joseph and Mary were just ordinary folk, and when Mary was pregnant out of wedlock, and the Father was not Joseph.
All this beatification stuff, went on a lot later, after the Christian myth had become established.

Well, I'm not sure that RM is a prime example of your run of the mill Catholic.
More of a newly newly converted, over zealous type Catholic.
All the Catholics I know, go to church occasionally and then come home again and would rather talk about the weather or football. (Soccer)

@AdaptableRatman
I asked you three simple, honest, non-blasphemic, questions, concerning social attitudes 2000 or so years ago.
Your inability to reply, therefore leads me to the following conclusions:
A. You regard pregnancy outside marriage, as reasonable behaviour.
B. You regard cheating on a betrothed partner with stranger, as reasonable behaviour.
C. If your wife to be slept with another man and became pregnant, you would regard this as reasonable and forgivable behaviour.
Just seems like a whole lot of contradiction to me .

Nope Ratman.
I am an agnostic atheist, and if this is a free thinking debate site, then you must accept the fact that I do not regard Middle Eastern folk tales in the same way that you do.
Though if you wish to turn this site into an autocratic theistic love club, then best of luck.

8 billion to one are long odds but worth a pound of any ones money.
Though oddly, these sort of things never make global headlines.
But can make a lot of money for the Roman Catholic Church.
And fraudulent hypochondria, is as difficult to diagnose as it's sudden recovery is.
And Roman Catholic doctors are likely to be a tad biased, as are their Roman Catholic patients.
Notwithstanding the power of positivity on physiological systems.
Nor what poor gullible people will do for money.
Or in fact, what not so poor people will do for more money.

@AdaptableRatman
You just replied.
And my comment, though somewhat satirical, was a perfectly reasonable interpretation of an old Jewish folk tale.
A young woman becomes pregnant after an illicit tryst with an unknown lothario.
The male issue of said illicit tryst, after a brief spell as a carpentry apprentice to his stepdad, then decides to become a wandering story teller.
But doves and bows still elude me.
And blasphemy is the remit of the pious mind.
So pregnancy out of wedlock was not frowned upon back in the day?
Nor was a young woman who cheated on her betrothed, regarded as more than promiscuous?
And would weak men who forgave adultery, not have been regarded as dopey?
