Science? It certainly doesn't connect all of the dots (yet), but it provides a great deal more proof than religion does.

Atheism is ignorance? I'd say that comment is ignorant. Religion provides zero evidence aside from a book of fairy tales penned by a bunch of goat herders a couple thousand years ago. They have no answers to how we came to be, so it must be a magic man living in the clouds. Or maybe a magic dragon? Sphagetti monster? Santa Clause? Gotta be some kind of magic for sure.

I'm perfectly willing to admit that I don't know for certain. However, looking at all of the evidence I'm pretty convinced that this isn't the result of some mythical being that has the same story, and birth date of dozens of "gods" prior to the spawning of the Chrisitan version.

You haven done much acid or DMT have you?

Ill never rule out "some sort of magic" knowing that if I thinks it's magical I probably just don't understand the science behind it..

And I understand that I'm just a talking monkey on an organic spaceship hurdling through space and "time" around a nuclear explosion that is so big it's own gravity causes it to re explode it's explosions for a looooooong time while TRILLIONS of planet killers lurk in the darkness just waiting to turn the lights out but a GIGANTIC ball of unknown material that has storms big enough to swallow our planet protects us.... All hail Jupiter...

Does the mayfly understand the seasons? How can we expect to understand how this all really works? For all I know a space dude spent 7 days fucking different animals on this planet and called himself God....unlikely lol but still more plausible then most the current theories.

Check this out.. And buy Graham's book they are talking about, I'm on my second lap with it already it's pretty unreal... It's a fucking mind fuck tho I warn you...

How do you know there isn't a god? It requires just as much faith to say there is no God as it does to say there is a god..

Atheism is ignorance to just how big the universe and our consciousness really is..

The only possible answer is "scio me nescire" or "if I know one thing, it is that I know nothing."



And ps sorry for the delay... Been murdering some cervids

That's such a silly argument. To St0w's point -- there's no way of proving or "knowing" that a community of tiny breakdancing fairies aren't inhabiting some region of the universe either but that doesn't make the notion at all likely or logical in any way.

From the ritualistic burials of Neanderthals to the pyramid texts to polytheism to monotheism to deism, the evolution of religion and the belief in a god are clear -- similar to fairies, the idea originated in the imagination of a fearful ape species terrified of a savage world of which they had no method to understand.

And as boundless as our imaginations seem to be, the universe has proven to transcend the creativity of the human mind -- scientists know this, which is why in the United States, 93 percent of the members of the National Academy of Sciences, one of the most elite and prestigious scientific organizations in the world, do not believe in god (atheism). Furthermore, I think you'd be hard-pressed to find one of these scientists, many of whom are biologists, astronomers, and physicists, who are "ignorant to just how big the universe and our consciousness really is" -- whatever that means.

Did you know there's been 8000 generations of man give or take a couple since the oldest provable fossil remain of a current human being as we stand now.... We went from horses to hover crafts in 3 generations.... Check out this new graham Hancock book "magicians of the gods"


I don't know what God is.. I don't think he's a guy on a cloud with a behind knockin up random middle eastern Virgins... But like I said I have now idea and the day some one tells me "ya this new technology tells the way it is.. Check it out and follow me!!!" Il be just as skeptical.

And as for your scientists being atheist... Ask any of them in depth with more then a multiple choice question and I guarantee you they will overwhelmingly say that they are unsure... And if they don't then they are probably Ben Carson like..... Remember he's a fuckin brain surgeon.

Watch that podcast with graham and Randall and Joe that I linked a post or 2 back and tell me if you don't question a few things lol... It's pretty earth shaking... Literally

Again, in exactly the same way that they would be forced to plead agnosticism regarding the existence of fairies and goblins and other mythical creatures if pressed by someone irrationally splitting hairs, but for all intents and purposes, they're atheists -- they reject the notion of god.

Oh, the "pseudoarcheologist" whose "insubstantial theories" have been soundly rejected by the scientific community. No thanks.

They reject "your" notion of God.

And Randall Carlson is far fro, pseudo anything and I don't know why graham gets called pseudo anything.. He's far from Zachariah sitchen, that's who I would call pseudo..

For real tho this new book is impossible to argue with. It's a revisit of his original "Atlantis" theory which was published in 1995, these last 20 years have brought so much to light graham had to revise his writings and make them bullet proof.

How did he make them bulletproof you might ask? Well cause of everyone like you who called him pseudo he decided to only use the work of the most well respected and intelligent professionals from all over the world. Zero of it is his own scientific work he only looks at the big picture and asks the right questions..

If you don't want to buy the book then watch the podcast it's a great summary of the book minus many of the details but the gyst is in the podcast. Episode 725.

Please feel free to make pseudo arguments after you've heard the evidence. There's literally no holes in the argument. The biggest geologists and archeologist of our time did the ice cores and the archeological digs and he only puts it all into one place.

I don't listen to a lot of country, but sometimes I get in the mood.
I saw Willie Nelson in January at House of Blues in Vegas.
Next month I am going to Vegas during the wrangler rodeo finals. Lots of good concerts then.
We are going to see Reba, Brooks & Dunn one night at Caesars on the Las Vegas strip, then
Merle Haggard at the Golden Nugget downtown.
Should be a great time.

You been practicing your Boot Scootin Boogie??

It's tough cause it's arguable that that's all the same kinda fake outlaw shit sorta that rules country today but all that stuffs so nostalgic to me I like it lol..

Any one remember garths alter ego Chris Gaines? Lolololol

This one always takes me back

Merle Haggard is sick. Show is cancelled. If he's ever gonna make it in this industry he's gonna have to get his shit together. (Jk)

Saw Terri Clark last night at gold nugget. That was actually a pretty good show.
Bummed about Merle though. He's in his 80s he can't have too many more shows in him!

Reba, Brooks & Dunn in Las Vegas.
That was awesome!

nothin better....

Check out Muddy Roots its a label and we have festivals in TN, IN and Belgium. I have been supporting them through my small label Cracker Swamp Productions for years. You guys will really like The Tillers and lots of other artists between MR and Roots Union you will not go wrong.
