The Official Psychoanalysis GAF Thread

[king of the internet]

Speaking of stinks, there appears to be a new flood of juniors. One of them had a nice little meltdown in the Kamiya thread. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=507443&page=37

I was just reading that. I honestly can't the remember the last time he posted something short or unapologetic, let alone both.

Yeah. I used to find him agreeable in OT threads, but his Nintendo posts are just insufferable. He basically just finds a narrative to spin Nintendo criticism that is plausible speculation at best, and tries to mask what is an otherwise shallow and largely unsupported thesis by writing ten meandering paragraphs that never really reach a satisfying conclusion.

People who tend to seem really agreeable and rational always have that one thing where it goes straight out of the window.

Doesn't he also believe in a closed off earth or whatever the fuck it's called.

[Broseidon]

Yeah, he doesn't seem to understand Thermodynamics. And, IIRC, radio carbon dating. I don't know if he's an actual young-earther but he likes to pop up in threads dealing with creationism and the like.

I would think he's a troll, but I can't imagine any human being being able to argue at such length, over such details and with so much confidence about how the shit he says is not wrong and totally the truth. He must be some sort of experimental forum chatbot running in a basement at MIT or something.

Anyone else find god debates thoroughly annoying from both sides? Everyone is arguing within the narrow ass confines of our limited understanding of life, the universe, etc. I just find it pointless. I mean yes so many debates are pointless arguments but such great minds get stuck on this. At some point who the fuck cares. I dunno, maybe I'm just being an asshole.

Pretty much. I don't believe in god but at this point I don't really want to align myself with self-proclaimed atheists either. When I was younger I was all about telling the world about how I felt, but not anymore. There's nothing wrong with respectful discussions but it seems like they're few and far between, and I have no interest in the never ending cycle of bickering. Leave me alone and I'll leave you alone, that's my religion.

I used to think he was a decent poster, but honestly at this point when I see his posts I just read a few lines, roll my eyes, then scroll past. He seems dead set on proving to the internet that he's the most reasonable guy on the planet but his posts often stink of bias.

what the fuck? he's an admitted furry. of course he's irrational, and of course ninthingery rides sidecar

Despite the "narrow ass confines of our limited understanding of life, the universe," we are able to fully comprehend the claims of religion and the arguments for the existence of god.

Yes the debate is pointless, not because of out tiny ape brains but  because of the unimportance of the subject matter. Any religious person who changes his mind based on a discussion on the Internets was probably never a nutter in need of a conversion.

JoshuaJSlone was trying, till people had to get all jittery over it.

[ToxicAdam]

I'm an atheist to a degree, but I still feel like religion is a necessary and overall positive force in society. That seems to be a minority viewpoint and not one that many people wish to engage on.

[StealthFan]

I think religion is incredibly positive for people at the end of their rope that have nowhere to turn to, like ex-cons, etc.

I am agnostic BTW.

Well that's what I mean by who the fuck cares. No one is being enlightened, it doesn't even affect how we govern or how we think of society. It's just arguing whether or not god exists or arguing over what basis we use to judge existence. It just reminds me of philosophical debates but even more exhausting.

[DCharlieJP]

don't really want to go into it - on a personal level Religion does seem to help people - as an overarching concept like "The Catholic Church" they are utterly evil: protests against sex education and contraception in the Philipines, condemning condom use in AIDS riddled regions of Africa, blaming child fucking priests activity on society, being right up there driving world politics, Gays are below second class people etc etc.

I'm also baffled by the "how do you have a moral compass without religion?!" argument - it always seems to suggest that without religion any single person would be running around raping and pillaging . I'm sure this was useful back in the day - but we've moved on from then.

Well that's what I mean by who the fuck cares. No one is being enlightened, it doesn't even affect how we govern or how we think of society.

huh? I could swear opposition to Gay rights is largely driven by religion - as is stem cell research, use of condoms in AIDS regions, sex education etc etc.

The idea that this isn't affecting society is far of the mark.

Yeah, when I was at Bob Jones University and had de-converted from Christianity in late 2009 the whole atheism vs theism debate was very important to me but now that I'm out and about in the real world I've stopped giving a shit.

I now see that most religious people aren't out of their minds like the religious people I was around during my childhood and during my two years at BJU so I've toned down my anti-religion and anti-theism stance a ton. Now-a-days I consider myself a post-theist or an apatheist.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I turned atheist when I was 12 and stopped giving a shit about debating atheism vs. theism shortly after.

Life's too short and I guess I never felt the need to evangelize.

Those are a specific tenet of a religion and propagated by militant religious folk. I'm purely talking about god's existence extricated from religion. We are running society at this point without him, whether or not he exists affects no one. I just think anyone asserting "facts" regarding the issue is a false prophet, whether they're a theist or atheist. It's of no consequence is it.

Um - those militant folk are holding up rights for a good chunk of people - but anyways. I'm not sure you can extract the existance from the religion - it's the cornerstone - though i agree that even if there was conclusive truth of there being no God that it would little or no effect on religion .

militant atheism isnt causing wars , disrupting governments, passing on miseducation regarding contraception and aiding the spread of AIDS, stopping sex education in several countries etc.

I know the atheits have a slew of arseholes in their ranks - but the Catholic Church is out and out fucking evil at the top level.
 

[archnemesis]

Yesterday 92 people were killed by two bomb blasts in Pakistan. That's militant ideology.

Some of the vocal anti-religion atheists have integrated other philosophies e.g. skepticism and secular humanism, into their belief system and are now offering that as an alternative to people looking for moral guidance. Most atheists really don't care that much about the subject.

Militant CHristians are far more likely to do serious damage to our society, but I find militant atheists more annoying. Probably because I'm an atheist myself and on certain level closer to them.

Well I mean it depends; if you have a good moral code then religious conviction can probably motivate you even more. I think people are inherently good so it sounds like you might have a point.

But I've met several people who will BLINDLY. FOLLOW. ANYTHING. that their preacher/scholar says.
