I have a thing against overly long posts.

I get half way down and my brain rebels.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

I don't even bother anymore.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Yeah - if I haven't found a point by sentence three, I skip it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

It does not take a genius to get far into any bad claim to realize it is crap. I can only give apologists credit for vivid imaginations. I find the easiest way to frustrate them is to remind them other people with other clubs and god claims do the same thing. When they cant debunk science they attempt to co opt it.

Three sentences? Astounding! You are an intellectual marathoner.

My lot, we're lucky to still be awake midway through the first sentence .. and that's assuming it is first thing in the morning and I've had me coffee.

It's sort of a discipline I picked up from screenwriting. Basically, you might as well not bother to write those epic car chases and gripping dramatic scenes in the second act if you can't grab the reader's attention in the first few pages, because they're never going to get to them. Give me a hook, something to make me want to turn the virtual page.

Hold on, If my mind exists outside time, then it didn't begin to exist, therefore doesn't have a cause.

Arriving at that conclusion is only valid if you're on LSD at the time.
