Hmmmm...Not really.


Credit by association perhaps, though in the absence of immediately recorded and irrefutable data, then generational data transfer depends wholly upon ongoing word of mouth repetition, which is likely to become embellished and exaggerated into a mythological format...Hence we arrive at a prophetic magician of fantastic birth, accompanied by associated sycophants and gossip spreaders.

SergeantLynch

Hmmmm..."Insuperable"...Good word...I must remember to utilise it.



But yes, currently in terms of logic, spirituality is simply a fanciful product of the internal workings of the human brain.


Though I do think that technology will eventually provide the means to transfer the human database to an alternative storage device...Whether or not such data will be blessed with awareness of a previous human existence, is perhaps currently a less superable thought, but perhaps not an insuperable reality in the long term.

SergeantLynch

Hmmmmm...Bold claim.

Anaesthesia is used as a pain killer. It leaves its own memories behind.


Is there any peer reviewed scientific research to back up such claims.


My own experience of anaesthesia, has never knowingly given rise to specifically related memories.

We are all caught up in the fleeting moment of our own particular existence events, not actually knowing why, or for what purpose...That's if there is a universal purpose of course.


So we are all products of the coal and oil powered industrial revolution that is now so despised by many...Which seems somewhat hypocritical to me...But hey, that's progress I suppose.


Though the human species still keeps churning out more and more users and demanders of energy and consumer products.


Not sure if exacerbating social and environmental problems by increasing demand is a sensible or workable long term model...But hey, perhaps that's all a part of progress too.


And now we introduce AI into the mix, which will surely also progress...Won't it?


Everything towards what, and for what purpose everything.


GOD principle indeed...Please explain.


SergeantLynch

Well, if there were no guns there would be no gun murders.


But yes, we are talking the USA, where no guns has long since been a ridiculous expectation.


So my replies to such discussions also tend to be satire based...Because a proliferation in domestic weaponry will inevitably result in a proliferation in gun murders, so gun murders should be a reasonable social expectation.


Even so, is support for domestic weaponry directly comparable with party political support...I don't know, you tell me Faux.

SergeantLynch

For sure Debs, GOD is a concept that predates Christianity...Magic man was an obvious solution...Though we do know that the 6000 year baloney is baloney.


And for sure, the GOD principle is the BIG BANG, is everything we do and do not know...And maybe one day we will know everything...Though it's likely that Another Alternative Intelligence will work it out first.


In the mean time we still need to do a lot of important sorting out...Like, who can have what and whether or not we should fight over it, and transsexualism and nationalism and which fitted kitchen to go for, sleek modern minimalist or quirky retro...And then there's dentistry and the piano keyboard Cheshire cat look that everyone desires.


Yep, all the important stuff...But hey, we are mostly all wired up to the new global-techno-data GOD...Such is real progress I suppose.

Americans committing murder is an ongoing event...And owned by all Americans.


And illegal is a concept relative to legal, relative to a raft of other concepts.


And for sure, you can air your thoughts wherever you choose to.


It was just that this particular dig at democrats seem somewhat more random than others.


Notwithstanding that randomness is a concept that I do not particularly agree with.


Maybe flippant would be a better word.

SergeantLynch



But unfortunately, certain Americans seem to not mind the bad light...Thriving on their own self importance and self righteousness


Similarly, Israelis are now positively thriving in near darkness...Thriving on their own self importance and self righteousness.


Maybe they are connected in some way.

Well rewriting history is how "The Bible" came to be as it is today...Whereas I am just stating the obvious.


And I've said all along that that "The Bible" is a collection of hand me down folk tales and myths...It's nice to see that you finally agree.


Now I've just got to restate the obvious to convince you that an eyewitness observation from 2000 years ago could not be preserved.

SergeantLynch

Well, after life would be after life...This is a truism...In fact, after life is after life.


Though the majority of what one has done in this life will already have been forgotten in this life...So an afterlife will only confirm a before life...But only if it is confirmable of course.


Though as it stands again, as you cannot prove an afterlife, I do not need to disprove an afterlife...Prove an afterlife and the debate is settled.

SergeantLynch

HaHa...Mantra.


Nope, you cannot maintain an eyewitness account unless you have a film and audio recording of an event.


Perhaps the Romans had CCTV and hidden microphones...GO check with the Vatican.

SergeantLynch

Hmmmm......Well it's the usual conundrum whereby one cannot disprove something that cannot be proved.


Nonetheless as I regularly point out to you, there are no actual eyewitness accounts of anything that the Jesus character might have done...Only later folk tales.


Thing is you buy into these stories, sold to you by the slick theo-political business empire known as RC Inc, and then just repeat the mantra.


So Debs the onus is on you to provide actual proof of the original event...Do that and the debate is settled...But you cannot, because events of 2000 years ago cannot be revisited...So until you have actual proof, I do not have anything to disprove.


Okay, so I too have a mantra...Though a mantra that does actually prove a point...Which is that you cannot substantiate the basis of your theistic obsession.

SergeantLynch

For sure, a while back colonialism was a trend.


And Fortunately you are a well paid Canadian therapist.


Just think what would happen if I went back in time and killed a butterfly.

SergeantLynch

Well, some might suggest that there is a better option.


But for now they can remain tolerant.


The acumen and sensibilities of subsequent dynastic generations will be key to their long term survival.


Whereas, Donald's internal system's decline will be the key to his short term survival.
