Hm, weird, pretty sure I did that to another post of mine recently and it worked, but thanks for trying.
Y no Shrek ‘n cheese?
For me it's mostly the brown goop that turns me off but it sounds like you made the right decision
I apologize in advance but you made me do this:
Consider it a commentary on rainbow crapitalism.
So would you say that a belief system is more correctly described as a narrative about how the universe came into being and eventually lead to exactly to where you are right at this very moment?
If so, then isn't that narrative sort of a God-construct, because it explains who and why you are and why you do what you do? Because I would argue that this narrative then IS your God, as that is what created the world YOU live in, and determines everything that you do. You are therefore functionally behaving like a theist, whether or not you deny it makes no difference to me.
science is not a religion, because religion relies on belief. science relies on reproducible data.
Science is the belief in the scientific method as the best tool to determine the truth. And it could certainly be said to fit the definition of religion if you go by Cicero's explanation of its etymology, which says that religiō comes from relegere: re (meaning "again") + lego (meaning "read"), where lego is in the sense of "go over", "choose", or "consider carefully" — all of which are certainly required in order to correctly do science.
Where did you get the idea that those are assertions? Did you miss the question marks or something?
how would being atheist require you to give up self will?
That question was based on the previous commenter's assertion that "atheism is [...] the assumption that life is simply the result of natural processes existing without will."
Can confirm. This is what they look like:
Thanks for delivering, but my God, it's worse than I expected. Why is there brown sauce on top?
Did you ever try it? Was it any good?
Protip: not all Lemmy clients can properly show URL previews, but if you change the post URL to the actual image it should show up properly everywhere.
Clever idea BTW
Makes sense to me
De verdad
