I think the existence of worthless body parts like wisdom teeth, and also some elements of human psychology really hang a lot of things up

Also, you can live without an appendix

Seem more like "leftovers" than intentionally placed there

@HisNameisBrentonTarrant

What is hanging things up?

No dictionary had a good definition to meet your phrase

@The Big Oof I think this was confusion

what happens when you hang a phone up

I believe in evolution

I'm not a Abrahamic Creationist

I just don't think evolution disproves god or a supernatural force necessarily

I didn't say you couldn't believe in evolution

I don't have any faith in a supernatural being really

It's a really weird grammatical flex

I only leave open the possibility and wonder why there is something rather than nothing

Believing in evolution that occurred through a divine process means that those pieces were planned to have been there, and that the process occurred through divine planning/intervention

Are divers omniscient under this theory?

*divine

They're often seen as contradictory positions

One belief set is denied in favor of the other

Evolutions as a creation process seems pointless and not efficient tho.

yeah, which is what i'm leading into

And also, leaving in those extra pieces like wisdom teeth doesn't really make sense and is directly a negative physical trait

I’m gay

my internet cut out

You know, an atheist doesn’t say there is no God, just that there isn’t enough evidence to support that there is a God.

I’m an atheist, and until I get some real good evidence that there is a God, I will remain an atheist.

Sup

@Cheepskipper I don't view humans as logical agents

We're animals, and thus we are driven by animal instincts

People believe all kinds of things without evidence. It is cute to think that we can have a completely consistent rational view of the universe that explains everything but that's silly. We're animals flailing about, fumbling with our convoluted thinking, desperately seeking survival

@snakeeater I know. That’s maybe why I love science so much. The scientific ways are made so that we won’t fall in the trap of our flawed human brains illusions. Humans feel the need to know how things work. When we don’t know, we usally find a explanation that isn’t true. Example: Thor with lightning. But by using scientific methods, we have found out that this isn’t true. Like you said, we humans are just flawed animals as we have evolved from a common ancestor like all the other animals and plants.

@Cheepskipper you're missing my point. Logic is overrated

@snakeeater How is logic overrated? Can you explain in more detail what you are trying to say?

My own expansion on the topic would be that empirical deduction is limited to factual claims and does not infringe on the realm of motivation.... to the contrary... motivation often infringes on the empirical deduction resulting in biased perception of empirical claims.

@Cheepskipper sure, why do you value logic?
