Who believes in the bible - that's like comparing the whole Bible with all of Science - absolutists are absolutely mad - I believe in 96% Science and 4% Bible. Believing it's one or the other is only for people who see things in either B or W.

Are you saying anyone who believes in the Commandment to not kill other people are just Bible thumpers? Call me crazy, but I think it's a pretty good thing.

I think it's a terrible thing.

The bible says - 'Thou shalt not kill'. But what if someone is trying to kill you? What if they're trying to kill other people? What does the bible's moral absolutism have to offer us?

Morality is not black and white and the majority of the bible is immoral as fuck. Not even following it's own rules.

In truth it's 'Thou shalt not kill... unless it's a woman who has sex with men she isn't married to, a woman who dares to teach, a child who disobeys it's parents, anyone of a different religion, anyone of no religion, etcetcetc.' The list goes on.

There are times when the moral decision must be to kill someone. The bible is useless as a moral guide.

I think even in the eyes of the Law, your allowed to defend yourself, and i dont think that law opposes anything written in any religion..

Well you're wrong.

In the eyes of the law, execution is perfectly legal. In the eyes of Buddhism - killing anything is wrong. In the eyes of Christianity? Who the fuck knows. It depends which sect you belong to but if you're to take the bible literally the words are 'do not kill'... except in all the circumstances where God says it's ok to kill but never once for self defence. Only as a punishment or a command from God.

If the idea is based on attraction though Magnetism, it sounds much more credible. But after watching the video - he explains his determination is from Einstein theory of General relativity combined with the coriolis effect.

But the coriolis effect is also mostly myth.

Also many in quantum mechanics and string theory have serious issues with Einstein's theory - This is why i maintain that FE has little to do with Religion or being anti science - it's just not assuming all science is 100% correct, it's the search for an explanation of our reality, knowing the difference between fantastical answers all while always looking for and accepting there might still be a better truth.



Thankfully North American Law makes more sense than some ancient Buddhist beliefs on this one, if someone breaks into my house and intends to kill me - i'll shot his ass like 12 times and wont feel an ounce of guilt or serve one day in jail and ill think that way until God himself come down and claims self defense is a mortal sin. Don't Buddhist believe in reincarnation? So I'm just karmically helping him achieve his next life. #ringthegong

normally people base flat earth off of the bible, like qodosh and the videos/forums you copy paste from

this is just categorically false, educate yourself on general relativity and astronomy

string theory isn't a tested field of science, its theoretical physics and not something to be used to contradict a well accepted fact like gravity. What problems does quantum mechanics have with general relativity, in your words?
to believe in F.E. you have to assume 100% of the words leading scientists are absolutely incompetent and incapable of understanding basic physics, math, and geometry and that you know better than them all.

OSsloth is where it's at bro

are you retarded?
