You're so confused that you don't even know what you are quoting or what it says.
Quote:Why should I reach a consensus with anyone?You've described the problem in a nutshell. People are indeed free to believe what they want. But if they want to actually know what is true, they need to stop acting like children and so some work. And when they do that work without preconceived biases and "what they like the most" horseshit they tend to work towards a consensus. Why should you reach a consensus with anyone? Because otherwise your claims are just that-- claims. And you can't back them up.
People are free to believe in what they like most.
Quote:As far as you say that a supernatural entity is all bull I will have to say that is not because yoga works and yoga is all about reducing the distance that separate me from such an entity.Ah yes, god is real because you can "feel the separation between you and him reduced every day." In other words... bullshit. Get back to me when everyone who claims this stuff agrees on who and what it is.
By feeling that the separation is reduced day by day I automatically know that this entity is real.
Quote:Now however you shift the topic on a previous point that I already explained of how the blood to the brain is relevant.You made the claim, I asked how it was relevant to what we were discussing, and you went off on these bizarre tangents. Your inability to focus or comprehend are not my problem. And once again, you claim that I said something that I didn't say and the quote you use PROVES IT. Are you trying to sound like an idiot?
Quote:That is why I mention the blood in order to correct you when in a previous comment you only mention the oxygen.This is so stupid. I mentioned that the cause of NDEs is oxygen deprivation to the brain, and you make a point that blood also flows to the brain. I agreed by pointing out that it is the blood that brings oxygen to the brain. In other words, my mention of oxygen also implied a lack of blood flow. You seemed to think that mentioning blood was significant, as if it meant anything other than the cause of the lack of oxygen. Honestly, Rik... what the hell is wrong with you? How are you unable to keep up with such simple concepts, so that you wind up making them complicated?
Quote:I am talking about logic Ton.Stop stalling and prove what you're claiming, otherwise, it's just another claim.
Quote:Progress come when the positive is not affected by the negative.Like I said, we went through this before and your current effort is just as poor as the last one. You spew word salad that is either nonsensical or stupid as if you're hoping that there might be a kernel of truth somewhere in there. There isn't. You're making this stuff up as you go along and you're bad at it.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
