Yes, it prevents us from eating rotten food.

You throw away rotten food. Would you throw away another human being?

1. Where did I say I would?
2. Am I the one showing disgust?
3. Am I defending the disgust or am I providing the answer to your question?

PBB, if I could get you to be anything but defensive with me I think you and I would actually get along.

Maybe we can agree on this: Disgust towards any individual human being is corrosive and potentially harmful.

No?

No. Disgust towards rapists and murderers are good for you. It helps you stay safe. Disgust towards sickly people serve the same purpose. As for potentially harmful, you can say that about anything, literally.

Oh and I wasn't being defensive, I'm not the one who avoided questions, like you just did. You just don't know how to form an honest question.

You are trying to form a premise that all disgust is bad, so this video is bad. I'm just not allowing you to form a false premise. It's hardly my problem that you do not understand the advantages and utility of disgust.

As Christian mythology has it, God throws away most human beings.

Good ole Dusty.
"....atheists rule the Internet"
lol.

The internet is what is finally turning the tide against religion, because Christians have no way of controlling either the content or the ability for people to access it. It will only ever get closer to impossible for the religious to successfully indoctrinate children before they will be exposed to, and have the chance to explore, reasons why their parents' religion is outdated and useless. Religion will not maintain its stranglehold over the minds of people when it has to exist in an actual free marketplace of ideas.

The internet is becoming so proliferated with contradictory "truths" that it is having the paradoxical effect of promoting fedeism.

As people become more and more distrustful and skeptical and cynical about all the 'dross' as AC Grayling calls it, why should we believe what atheists say anymore than scientologists?

Citing Wikipedia as a reference source?


With 14.3 trillion pages of internet - as opposed to the relatively few trusted sources of information people previously used to have - many are reverting to trusting their own gut instinct about whether or not
what they are seeing/hearing, (second hand or third hand hearsay news) is actually true. And that is fedeism.

What does A.C. Grayling think about the internet?

...the price we pay for the internet's open democracy is the rubbish it contains...

...its content has to be audited for reliability, and a system of classification introduced...

...Without such expert monitoring, the internet will increasingly be a problem rather than a boon, and limited in educational value..

Lots of "dross" on the internet Mr Grayling? Take it up with the "owners"

It is, for some people. There are people who just want to believe certain things in spite of a real world which continuously contradicts those beliefs, as you yourself demonstrate so well. Religious belief is symptomatic of some critical flaws in human thinking, which is why religion is pervasive even though no individual religion is pervasive. Thing is, that's still a dramatic improvement over the days in which liars and mythologically-blinded religious fools had the power to make sure that everybody learned and internalized their lies from an early age, safe in the knowledge that alternative sources of information could be easily suppressed.

It will likely work out in favor of reason in the end, because when a person can compare so many myths, it is easier to see that they are all myths because they share so many vital similarities.
