That is deeply delusional.

That website is comprised of roughly 2 million words which disclose topics such as psychology, mathematics, science, religion, epistemology, philosophy, etc in a rational attempt to explain the meaning of life.
How is the greatest website on the web delusional?

The site is full of misunderstanding and bad logic.
Quote: It appears that Dawkins didn't realise what he was doing since he is firmly opposed to teleological arguments. However, in his "weasel" example to demonstrate the power and speed of evolution, he uses a definite end (telos) to direct the entire process. Unlike Dawkins, we would never assert that a known end-point directs evolution. It is bizarre that an atheist biologist chooses such an argument to illustrate his case.
This is a complete misunderstanding of what Dawkins was saying. This is a toy example to show the power of accumulated change, nothing more.
Quote:What happened to Pythagoras's mysterious secret society (whose roots extend far back to the dawn of human civilisation and whose ancient adepts included Solomon the Apostate, the genius who heroically tried to kill Jehovah, the monstrous Torture God)? It became known as the Illuminati - the enlightened ones - and it has survived to this day, despite relentless Abrahamic persecution. Mithraism, alchemy, hermeticism, the Gnostic religion of the medieval Cathar heretics, the outlawed Knights Templar and the original anti-establishment Freemasonry (nothing like pro-establishment modern WASP Freemasonry) were all guises of the Illuminati.
Mathematics doesn't rule the universe - mathematics is bounded by the laws of physics. There are no mystical, magical numbers.
And on and on. Mystical hogwash.

Then why come the laws of physics go haywire when it comes to black holes? Also, imaginary numbers.

Haywire? We don't have the physics or the math for the inside of a black hole because there is no basis to form them, that is, no data.
Imaginary numbers are used in quantum mechanics, so no haywire there.

Worth reading for bad logic, poor understanding, and outright crazy ideas.

Do the words "The last post in this thread was made over 30 days ago. Please consider starting a new thread." mean anything to you?
