do you consider your clothing a "suit" of armor? :D
I was supposed to be a black-tie knight...
What would you do if you woke up one day and everybody just disappeared all humans were gone.
I would probably be devastated at first... so many people ill never get to meet... but eventually I would probably get over it and treat the world like a giant playground until all of the nuclear plants melted-over and killed me.
If you could get rid of or create one law what would it be?
Probably revoke Marijuana laws. Not because I think smoking pot should be legal but because making it illegal is a huge strain on our system for something that used to grow on the side of the road as a weed.
Why does the moon come out before the sun sets?
It doesn't always. When it's full it comes out well after.
Describe Canada's and the United States relationship
Serviceable
What is a particle accelerator in your opinion?
It's a device designed to fire atomic particles at eat hither and measure the resulting reactions. My opinion is that they're essential.
Is Canada good friends with the UK?
We're part of the UK commonwealth
Pick one thing right now that you want to do with your horse(non sexual please?).
You never answered my question. I know you get a million questions. I am an Atheist and a Grad Student in history, so I am educated. But one question makes me think... Why are there Mathematical Constants in the universe? It does not prove god, but its a good question. I dont believe in god.
Well... we don't know for sure they are constant. We have such a small cross-section of the universe's dance... but our study of physics kinda depends on it. We can only assume they are constant, but we do have good reason to believe it. Why are there constants? Just the way the big-bang made it happen.
Theoretically speaking, Pretend you are an Ultra Conservative Christian who openly supports and promotes young earth creationism? Now give your best argument from that point of view. I know there are no good arguments for YEC but pretend to be one just for me lol thanks Skepty
Ok... I tried for a week to think of an answer... I can't.
now as a young atheist living in a school of mini social justice warriors how should I go about expressing my beliefs without being offensive. now whenever I say religion is a primitive concept I get hounded by a bunch of cant bags, is there really any way or am I screwed
I'm not very good at not being offensive... sometimes the truth is offensive. If you simply don't want to be offensive, don't say things like that. Say you don't agree with it. People will still get offended, but at least not as much.
Do you believe that if someone has a false belief (ie their belief was wrong), but the outcome of that false belief is positive in every way, AND is more positive than having the correct belief, than having the false belief is good? I can offer an example if needed but I'm out of characters...
No, not in "every" way. I know people that are good because of their beliefs, or they do good things, but all that really tells me is that they wouldn't be good if they didn't think an ethereal sky-daddy wasn't watching them. Some prominent theists have said that if it turned out there was no god they would murder people. Mostly, I am sure, they are wrong, but I know there are a few who are closet psychopaths just waiting for an excuse.
Advice, maybe?? One of my best friends has an abusive mother and I keep hearing story after story of how much mental/emotional abuse she's putting her through and I feel really helpless. My friend insists I don't try to get help because "no one will believe [her]." i really dont know what to do.
Emotional abuse is a motherfucker... It's next to impossible to prove without lots of video and voice documentation...
All sorts of music. There is probably at-least one song in every genre that I like. Mostly alternative rock, classic rock, old-school rock. But quite a bit of dance and electronic too.
Hello Skeptic, I'm having problems moving on with my life, I find myself constantly pondering the existence of God, and I find it really hard to just dismiss, or if reality is even real, I get depressed over it, and even want to kill myself sometimes just to know what's on the other side.only300char
Well, I am a skeptic, not a knower. I don't know what is on the "other side." What I do know is that there is no evidence that there is a god and there is no evidence that there is another side. Life is an incredible gift that the universe has bestowed on us. It is worth living out lives out fully because there is probably nothing else after this.
