It seems like even if this were a god breathed world the universe continues to be indifferent to that desire?(August 30, 2026 at 3:38 pm)The Grand Nudger Wrote: That the universe doesn’t care or notice that I’m hungry doesn’t seem to have any effect on whether or not I do… nor does it seem to have anything to do with gods.

I think you're in denial. I was pretty clear why it's a problem. Again, if some of the rightward-falling dominos have a desire/hunger to go left they will still fall right. Desires are useless/ irrelevant in a domino effect. Reductionistic atheism is therefore an insufficient/unsatisfactory explanation of reality.
Let us all begin with the plausible/satisfactory theories, and debate amongst those, instead of getting bogged down with impossible theories. Just sayin'
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
