^^ good user name
The chances of a thing cease to matter after it's happened, unless you're trying to replicate it
What are the odds that life would exist the way it currently does? 100% lol. Of course it exists the way we see it
It also operates on the basis that everything was entirely random, which, ???
Nobody made that claim

so racist.
hating on indians.
native fucking americans!
what did they ever do to you huh?
@Beemann Why would it not be the case? We, as you stated, evolved to have religious beliefs.
Your point on probability is post hoc. The chances to get to where we are are phenomenal. Write a model to predict that. Lol
what are the odds that 2+2 would equal 4????? out of how many numbers? such wow!
what makes you think 2+2=4?
Because religious beliefs can be beneficial and not true? Again, we're tribal as a species, and seek answers. We used to have shitty predictive models
thas the definition of our mathematical structure
@Bayesed nice strawman. Lol
We thought the earth was a fucking disc
oh, semantics, i see.
@Beemann so?
yes
So we believed a lot of shit that wasn't true. That we got to that point isn't proof that it was
nothing is.
so my current statement wasnt?
you have already contradicted yourself
paradoxically
have i?
Our knowledge base has evolved over time
so semantics(implied my statement was semantics) nothjing is semantics
nothing is something and everything is something, so i was just agreeing, yo.
@Beemann you are using the God of the gaps fallacy lol
No I'm not
How are you reversing all of this?
"God of the gaps" is a theological perspective in which gaps in scientific knowledge are taken to be evidence or proof of God's existence. "
all this talk about the existence of god sure brings back memories, to like 10 years ago, when it was agreed upon that god does indeed not exist (at least in any sense described with religion)
I'm saying gaps are not proof
I didn't agree.
i was mostly being facetious
I am doing the *opposite* of the God of the gaps
i know many still disagree and i respect that
I mean hard to agree when the claimm isn't even defined.
