God Exists?!!1

http://www.godlessgeeks.com/LINKS/GodProof.htm ?

Seriously. This guy.


According to the use of Gibberish, God, exists.

At first glance, you'd think to yourself 'holy physical shit, is this guy serious?' Each and every proof, is infact - ridiculous. Codswallop.


1. TRANSCENDENTAL ARGUMENT, a.k.a. PRESUPPOSITIONALIST (I)


(1) If reason exists then God exists.

(2) Reason exists.

(3) Therefore, God exists.


Mega Fail.

I disagree with this 'proof.' I don't mean to be offensive, (un)fortunately I will be. If you are religious or if the Transcendental Argument makes any sense to you, what-so-ever, you are are actually a moron. It is impossible to use reason to prove God. Infact i would like to see you try, i may even hold a competition with prizes for the winner, and the ones which make me laugh.

If you dont know how to start, examine the argument below. And prove it.





















667 ARGUMENT FROM BEAUTY, a.k.a. DESIGN/TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT


1. Isn't that baby/sunset/flower/tree/unfortunate being beautiful?

2. Only God could have made them so beautiful.

3. Therefore, God exists.

...
Can't do it? I thought as much.

I don't know, am i missing something here?

ARGUMENT FROM INTELLIGENT DESIGN


1. The material universe resembles the intelligent productions of human beings in that it exhibits design.

2. The design in any human artifact is the effect of having been made by an intelligent being.

3. Like effects have like causes.

4. Therefore, the design in the material universe is the effect of having been made by an intelligent creator. (the cause)


... really? are you sure this is the case...


"we are so complicated, it's obvious were designed by some intelligent being."

Sorry for the sarcasm here.
It seems quite paradoxical that this intelligent being created such UNintelligent beings, especially those who babble crazy "intelligent design" ideas.

Go read a book or something.

On a more serious note.

Why would god create flawed beings with blind spots in their eye?

To put it another way:

God is ridiculously powerful.

Sick Shit Still Happens.


Let me rephrase that for those of you who missed the picture above..

God loves us all.


But damns to hell whatever arbitrary religion he isn't being advertised in.

Ontological arguement V.s. ... Youtube Reform
... urrr..

Finally, i thinks it's safe to say, if you believe in god you must surrender rationality or reason or "proof" as a defence... rely on faith and belief. In fact... all religious people aka theists should only be allowed to call themselves believers (as whatever they believe it seems obscure to me) or fideists.



**James looks at KC** Wow. God got pwn'ed.

My shame.

Nothing has disturbed me more throughout my life than obligation. The words, "have" to, you "must", "need" to. These words don't ring true in my liberal lexicon. I feel unsafe next to them, like they themselves are an obligation. I believe in the idea of, "want" to, you "can" and "should" do (which is a value judgement of obligation - we are all entitled to our own opinions).

I think we all like to believe we're free. In fact, apparently: we know we are free...

You know, we have spending power... we have a voice. We can leave the country. We have rights. We have "government by the people".

In fact, I'm sure I've heard the phrase "it's a free country"
As to the above, if you think that, i will not even present a coherent argument, your just STUPID.

I have choice, I wrote this. I'm looking at universities. I'm going to go out and do something tomorrow.

However, freedom comes at a price (pun). You must pay for it. You must buy your freedom. in fact, I'm quite sure it seems reasonable to say, you pay for a level of freedom. Thus, some people are more free than others.

It's important that we realise that we cannot escape our system of money. it's a climate, a climate that's changed. We are able to afford such a greater freedom than we could, both because of technology and widening availability of jobs.

Once it's sunk in. That we are sucked in.

Take a moment and wonder how the system works?
Or, using the greatest, most free and beautiful thing on this planet, (the internet,) research it.

In a blog, it isn't reasonable to mobilize a complicated and ideologically motivated argument. Nor is it possible to sit one down and explain everything, for clarity.
But there are two arguments, against the system of money which are only too easy to explain and too logical to follow. Thus it would be silly not to express them.

Within a society it is an absolute obligation, it is a necessity, that we have a division of labour.
Quite simply, we MUST have people at the bottom slaving away on low wages and we must have people at the top. E.g. in a car company, we have people helping assemble the car. They don't get paid much because their job isn't as complex. We also have people designing them, getting paid more because they're more specialized.
Do you see what i mean. Someone has to work somewhere.

the second point is much harder to reconcile.

Profit.
Interesting word. Funnily enough. Profit actually implies obligation. If all companies need profit to pay back their loans in interest... If all companies want to expand.
Profit is what drives our money system.
You could call it greed. But that's just semantics. Not to mention, rhetoric. Persuasive language.

The profit model is very efficient, it powers innovation and competition. When it gets sticky is where we ask... what about the ethical stuff.
So...
Briefly and logically because i'm getting restless. As you might be able to tell by the increasing speed by which i tap the enter key.

It does not suit profit to protect the environment. Fish and animals are profitable. it is cheaper to dump waste rather than store it. etc.

In healthcare (more so in the usa), it is more profitable to be faster than efficient. As the social engineer fresco put it, Does the doctor think i have a bad kidney, or does he need a new yacht.

Oh, just thought. Create a virus, and a cure. release the virus and then auction the cure.
Why?
profit.

why pay worker a high wage when it is more profitable for the company to pay a low wage.
Profit
Asian sweatshops are an example of this.

The modern history of man depicts his attempt, through politics, to make money ethical.

I hope we grow up one day.

The Awesomeness of Spontaneity (and irony)

So you wake up one day and decide "i want to write about life!" or whatever preference your creative tendencies have.
You have your individualized drink, may it be tea, coffee or coke.. (god forbid). Any other commodity which seems to extend your concentration, or susceptibility to "the creative aura" and sit there, taut, pressed up against the screen, fingers nimble at the keyboard.

But Alas.

You have nothing to write.

It is an awfully beautiful irony, when you want to write but cant. When you try to write you can't. But when you just take it easy, open your mind - it hits you. Anything.

This for instance, is purely written because Mr Holy Towel a.k.a James, in front of me just can't pull it off.
He wants to. The boy huffs, flicks his head and slaps on the keyboard in frustration. Shame.

And it almost makes grin to say, ironically, again, his apparent "creative block" is my inspiration.

Haha. Loser.

*note: If a post appears above this one, then e has got his act together.

A lavish horde

Ok, so the Bar Lavish is having an "end of summer" party (is party the right word?).
These hyperactive promotions over face book have resulted in currently "488" maybe attending and "771" awaiting reply and "1007" confirmed guests... Let me please put this into perspective. However nice lavish is, very nice colours and an authentic feel -the situation is about as feasible as pushing an egg, or "1007 eggs" through a small sieve. If this metaphor confuses you, the egg may as well be trying to permeate the walls of lavish by osmosis.

I'm attending, i'll be the one on the table, squashed against the wall with my hand in the air trying to get served amid a horde of students.
I'm only 5"6

and that translates as FTW!


The words: Critical Mass
come to mind-
In fact,

If I fall over, I would possibly dissaperate (yes, like they do in the magical world of harry potter).

... and i need I.D..
Just to top it off.

Look forward to the event - see you guys there.
All of you..

All possible 2000 odd.

Wait, so if the total amount of sent invites exceeds 2000... then the people who organised it were relying on a low response rate!? I think they should have done their homework.
Only kidding.
