Being alive is divine. It doesn't matter if you understand it or not. It's a beautiful thing to have a consciousness in this world, and to have the ability to create, to love. It takes a huge intellectual effort to try to trick yourself out of believing something so intuitive as that.
- avmich 8mo agoThere are many examples when scientists strongly believed something to be obviously impossible and yet being wrong - Poisson spot or heavier-than-air flight machines coming to mind. So what you believe might be intuitive - that doesn't preclude it from potentially being wrong, unless you proved the impossibility.
- javier123454321 8mo agoI wish you happiness.
- pluralmonad 8mo agoWhat is intuitive to you, may not be to others. Might you be engaging in intellectual self trickery?
- javier123454321 8mo agoI guess there is people that are willing to die over the hill that there is nothing sacred or divine about being alive. I'm not very interested in playing that game.
- buzzerbetrayed 8mo agoNo, you’re the one playing the definition game. You took a word out of a sentence GP said, completely changed what the word meant, and then argued against the new definition. Never mind that you need to learn about the god of the gaps. But what you’re doing here isn’t even relevant to GPs main point.
- donkeybeer 8mo agoIt takes immense hubris to believe only you are divine. You are a physical system, if one physical system can be divine, so can others. Or do you believe in the supernatural soul nonsense?
- javier123454321 8mo agoI agree, it's not exclusive.
