You don't need to believe evolution. It's not a ideology, it's not a religion, it's a scientific proof. Please don't tell me you are a creationist. Please.
I'm not going to get into the evolution debate since this is not the place for it and we will not change each others minds over a iThing game. I will say that, regardless if evolution is true or not, we are real people with real lives and whether you think the human race is harmful or not doesn't change the fact that we are here. So, why not do the best we can for the furtherance of good? Why succumb the wickedness and harm?
Oh my god this thread. Micro evolution is real. Macro evolution is a somewhat reasonable theory. To deny micro evolution would be equal to being anti-vaccine, just idiotic. To blindly believe in macro would be religious. Other than the idiotic part, that is not an opinion. That is what we can say with 100% certainty going by our definitions of the words used. Please, nobody ever say they don't "believe in" evolution as a whole. It makes you look extremely ignorant. Accepting micro evolution does not go against any religion in any way. I am not agreeing with either of you, but I just wanted to point out that "evolution" is an extremely general term that should never be used by itself in a normal conversation or argument.
I understand evolution and the different parts of it. I studied it in college. When talking about evolution, he was referring to macro... As do most people when they speak of evolution. Obviously micro evolution is scientific fact and I would argue with that. It's a huge stretch to say macro evolution is fact. But, again... Please don't bring this debate in this thread.
That's exactly the point. We are here. We have developed a self consciousness way above any other species. Cogito ergo sum, Descartes says it all. It's because we think that we overcome all natures capabilities and principles from now on. The fastest way to realize that is to look outside, what's happening ? Do you know the first person you'll meet in the subway ? Most likely, no. And on the same side, that one person you'll meet won't know you, and won't give a **** about you because it's all about him. We all believe there's a "me", an "I". But it's not so difficult to understand that we are insignificant, we are nobody, just as the plant on your balcony is no one. We live and die, just as time is death. That's why there will be no other solution than extinction to all our mores issues.
But that won't happen anytime soon. So, the only plausible answer would be for each individual to do whatever good they can.
Jim, you're arguing a philosophical idea. That in itself makes no sense at all, and is contradicting. There's no point in arguing an idea that basically boils down to the meaning of life. Nobody wins and nobody is right. It's all opinions.
It happens more here cause of the anonymity. If they say all those vulgar words in rl, then good luck
The meaning of life ? There's always a meaning of life, even in what I said. Biologically no one wants to die, but indirectly, thinking for about 5 minutes about our existence brings you to wonder what if we didn't exist ? Well nothing. It's simple, not a single thing in the universe is influenced by us, we are the little lucky dust that was able to live on a little rock in a little gathering of booking Suns. Doesn't take a genius to know that the meaning of life is superficial. I love my life, most of here sure love their lives. But living with the conscience we have means to live with a lot of imperfections, and the one OP is talking about in this thread is only one out of thousands more issues.
Not sure if that's reciprocal with all the things I can see. But that debate doesn't have place here, it's never gonna end.
Well you're free to think and say whatever you want, it's your rights. Just know that you're trying to place a personal and unprovable conviction on a game forum.
Really, both theories are unprovable on a game forum. Really, those discussions are best done in person. No one will change through a forum.
I didn't talk about religions so I didn't put any of these talks in place. That's why I told that person not to. Let's avoid unnecessary messes. And no need to put a religious perspective in philosophy, even if the philosophy talk is about religion, the best way to discuss it is to consider it with its spiritual aspect.
This is ridiculous honestly. You call yourself a Christian but yet here's a whole thread basically judging people. Your faith may be Christian beliefs but you in no way are representing that. It certainly is not your job to point out peoples problems or mistakes especially on a GAME. Your threads are ridiculous and only mention what's already been mentioned in the countless other threads. I fail to see how any of them are "saving the forums" when its just making it worse.just saying
Well what you're saying makes sense. However we all judge to evaluate ourselves from others. We need that to feel superior, human nature. Let's not blame him too much for something we all do without thinking, judging others. On the other hand, yeah, pointing out these things on a forum is only making it worse but I admit I had fun talking philosophy ****
