Buzz killingtons? It's been really pleasant so far, every one's just been putting forward their ideas. To be honest, with a response like "What the fuck does it matter?" I'm guessing your input would not be of much value. What you don't understand, is that seeing something in person raises other fundamental questions, like, is this real? How can you trust your own senses so surely? Not that I expect you to give an intelligent reply.
I suspect I am one of the Buzz Killingtons (if not THE one). I think Ernie gets upset because I insist on a rational explanation for everything.
If i can bring one person to the world of science, skepticism and critical thinking, to me it is worth all the flaming trolls. Besides, it is mental gymnastics, you never know who is pounding away at the keyboard.
No you won't get an intelligent reply from me on this subject. I'm crazy...everything I say is a work of fiction and cannot be believed. Who the fuck are you to judge me anyway? You don't know shit about me. I say what the fuck does it matter because what the fuck does it matter? If you found out the true meaning of life right this fuckin second, what would you gain? You would still go to work every single day, and pay your taxes just like the next schmoe. I've wasted half my life trying to figure out "why we're here" and ya know what, evertime I DO post something REMOTELY intelligent, there are 10 other people showing up to prove me wrong. Sorry if I brought down your thread dude, but I'm just over it. Fuck it all.
out.
Thank you...at least someone gets it.

I always knew you were the 'One' lol

I'm not out to prove anyone wrong. I am out to encourage looking for a rational and naturalistic explanations for everything (yes, everything). So given the choice between - an "ancient martian race carved the face on mars" and "it is a trick of the light on a regular rock" - well i'm sure you can take a guess at which explanation I believe. But that doesn't mean it is the right explanation - just the most reasonable and the most likely. My question is - why would someone choose the unreasonable and less-likely explanation? There are lot of reasons both good and bad. Some good reasons would be they never heard conflicting evidence or like Ernie, believe evidence that they've reviewed. Some bad reasons for believing would be blind faith, a "need" to believe whatever it is and like Ernie, believing bad evidence in the face of more compelling (or at least more scientifically-based evidence).
what am i thinking right now?I would add that if anyone wants to have a supernatural thread where they discuss ESP, aliens, out-of-body stuff, psychics, homeopathy, etc... and want NO critics or skeptical input - i will not force my views.
There are some threads i would admittedly enjoy tearing into but reading the posts i sense (must be my ESP) that i would be an unwelcome intruder on their fragile world. I do not try to shake up their world to get my jollies.
But if you welcome me to your thread then beware what you're getting.
that you wish i would just shut the fuck up and you'd like to smoke a fatty.what am i thinking right now?
