This is a category error, hence the comment about apples and dark matter. Everyone knows about religions- im not aware of any culture without some traditions around what they consider divine. So atheism doesnt exist in a vacuum. It exists in a world where the majority of people are theist and EVERYONE is aware of religion. You're here arguing on the Internet that you don't have a religious position but by rejecting the existence of god(s) youre de-facto rejection religion and that is a position
And you think that the logical fallacy above makes sense. It compares the knowledge of physical things with beliefs and tries to make a point, but fails because of a category error. Comparing apples to dark matter doesnt make any sense. It's like saying that scientists who believe string theory over dark matter to explain observed phenomena don't have a position on whether dark matter is real.
Atheist is the opposite of Theist. A Thiesf believes in the existence of god(s). An Atheist believes that god(s) do not exist (or doss not believe that god(s) exist). Having no definite position is actually neither. Yiu can be either Gnostic or Agnostic either way - it just means that you think its possible to know for sure or not.This is all entirely pedantry, by the way, and should not be taken seriously
Well, my reasoning for calling atheism a religious position is agnostic reasoning. But it remains true that an atheist has a definite position on the existence of gods - that they don't exist.
To be pedantic, atheism is a belief because the existence of the divine is not provable and is thus not disprovable. It takes an explicit position on the existence of the divine - that there are no gods. That said it's both the rational position and the one supported by the (lack of) evidence
Google are building out their data centres so they can provision the ~450 billion backlog they have for cloud services. That does include AI, but it also includes a.lot more than AI and they need to expand to meet actual demand rather than vapour (unlike, say, meta).
Should the US itself REALLY be green?
Standing fire tly in front of it is.. risky. They can attack by leaning back on their tails and striking with their legs
Britain and France declared war on Germany because of that treaty with Poland so im not sure what point you're making
Not shown: dog also psyching out mom in favour of a stick he sawIt was a pretty cool stick tho!
Made. It used to make Iranian leadership shit the bed but now they known it doesnt matter what they say or do so they've acted and it turns out the US can't keep the strait open
#14 all aboard the fail plane! Thats scary, I would have thought the standard inspections would have noticed nose gear that damaged
Its not THEIR territorial waters, tho. That said both piracy and privateers require that it be done by private individuals. This is just state sponsored extortion
Evrn in that stayed of the employer is dumb enough to give you an actionable reason you can due them and can win. It won't necessarily be easy or fast tho
It wasnt insignificant, it was the reason that Egypt got the ball to break. It being reviewed after the goal is not an isolated occurrence, ive seen it happen plenty of times. The goal came directly from that passage of play.
Unremmeber when Oreland got to the quarter final in Italia 90 the absolute scenes of celebration. The country went mad together and its a great feeling. Congratulations Norway!
Weren't they mostly pissed off because lowering the tax on tea was hitting the profits from their smuggling?
The British paid £20 million, which was 40% of the national budget in 1833 and wasnt paid off until 2015. By any measure that's a massive cost to the state.
Lost in the sauce. Tragic, really!
I love Summer Wine, her voice is so distinctive
It was using a digger to drege the riverbed that needed a license, which does not seem excessive
Agree with what you said, but the original quote is "by appealing to the moral sense of the people who are oppressing them." I was just pointing out that its not entirely that grim. Close, but not entirely
The sympathetic people in power were sympathetic for moral reasons. Daniel O'Connell was offered everything he ever wanted for Ireland if he dropped his opposition to slavery but rejected it on moral grounds and was supported by the majority of his electorate.
Some of the wealthy did, but enough of them did not, and rhe electorate out enough pressure on to make it possible for the government to take on the cost of freeing the slaves.Of course, if you define everyone except those who didnt want to end slavery as "not an oppressor" then the statement is a tautology.
The British State took on a massive cost to free the slaves because their citizens came to find abhorrent thabks to a lot of hard work. Its problematic that slave owners made bank, but I was trying to point out that there is some hope
The British Empire banned slavery and bought out the slaves to free them because the British people eventually recognised the horrific wrong they were doing and pressured their government. So while rare it does happen.
Well by and large we don't have air-conditioning. Out houses are designed to keep heat in.
#20 I love that thr agents had a warrant all along but just said "I wanna see where this goes" and let him eat all the sandwiches
This is a complete misreading of the quote by someone trying to make a point. The quote itself wants both gone - killing the black person gets the Irish person killed also. This is not to try and compare the two situations, but pointing out that lad was a cunt
Haha youre totally right, tired as shit and didnt see it
