So typical of the mindset of the 'believer,' misrepresent any and all criticism of your position as a desire to prove you wrong. Where in my post did I insinuate that was my intended goal? Why can't you just man up and answer the questions like what specifically about Hawking do you dislike...

I wonder if we will ever hear from the OP on how this worked out 5 years ago. I guess since he hasn't been on this site since 2010, we will never get closure. :sad:

Yea, I'm sure it's too much trouble to actually learn something new. Much more fun to wallow in ignorance

That's okay. I know people are constantly misunderstanding the difference between addiction and chemical dependency. Part of the problem is that even professionals in the field will often use these two terms interchangeably. I agree that cannabis does not create the same physical dependency...

You should post this on Kickstarter....

A guardian angel from a debutante makes love to an amorously darling ruffian. Unlike so many gonads who have made their placid trombone abhorrent to us, dilettantes remain rapacious. Mitzi and I took a cigar (with a lowly widow, a mirror, a few widows, and the self-actualized curse) to arrive at...

Not exactly. You make a comment about life energy, about where it goes. Someone points out your comment is based on misunderstanding of energy. You continue to insist that the energy you are talking about is different than what he is. I am merely demonstrating there is nothing about energy...

Your bombardment of quotes did not show ONE that INSISTED any certainty with regard to gods. Railing against superstition and specific instances of religious bullshit is NOT supportive of your claim that atheists are making positive claims against the reality of a god. I will just have to...

ad·dic·tion [uh-dik-shuhn] Show IPA nounthe state of being enslaved to a habit or practice or to something that is psychologically or physically habit-forming, as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/addiction You...

such as? I have no idea what bi location is - I assume you are referring to quantum entanglement here. So how does this relate to what happens to energy when the body/cell dies?

I was quoting Thomas Henry Huxley, the person that coined the term agnostic. Many self-identified agnostics also happen to be atheists. Their position on knowledge has no bearing on whether or not they believe. That's the mental hurdle you seem to have such trouble getting over. Still waiting...

The energy in your body is either chemical or electric. It all originates from an external source, our food. Our current understanding of biology is pretty extensive and we understand how our cells (and plants) operate and the use of energy -- ATP -->ADP , TCA cycle, electron transport chain...

Continuing to insist that this is the case does not make it true. Since the vast majority of self-identified atheists do not use your definition, you will constantly be creating straw men to argue against. As someone that is familiar with debate, you should know that the first goal in any...

Actually one of the definitions of death is that the body is no longer capable of producing electrical impulses. If there is none being produced, there is none to dissipate.

Yet you cannot even seem to get these 'simple' meanings correct Atheism and Agnosticism are discussion two different ontological questions. No. You are partially correct. You have the root words correct but you are combining them incorrect. Agnostic is about whether or not one can have knowledge...

No need to be insulting. The reason I mentioned it is because I am more interested in what the individual people here have to say rather than what videos they like. The use of videos to support a point is not my issue, it is that it seems that's all you bring to the table sometimes. If I skip...

Sounds like special pleading combined with begging the question to me. "oh, you just can't understand that's why you think I'm spouting bullshit, but in reality, if you were enlightened, you would understand how to become enlightened." Your capitalizing "Truth" implies unique and special...

You know. I really wish you would participate in discussions once in awhile rather than try to have youtube videos speak for you. Most of the time the links don't even seem relevant to the conversation and feels like spamming. You have to take into consideration that not everyone has time to...

Well, of course you can both ignore the difference between seeing heat through a thin plastic tarp and through walls or roof with double walls and air/insulation between them. Heat is transmitted to surfaces, no one disputes that. The difference is that most people have their grow op separated...

This is utter bullshit. Atheism is one thing, a lack of belief in any deities. The reason one is an atheist is inconsequential, whether it is through skeptical reasoning or mere naive atheism, where one hasn't been introduced to the god concept. They can have the exact same magical thinking as...
