    Your right this time we aren't going to agree.

    Hell will freeze over before Jesus returns. That man died crucified. He didn't rise from the dead. The machine is an I.D. thief and simply impersonating him.

    Is it common, in such a superior culture, for people to be aware of when resentment has threatened to replace thinking in their own approach?
    Ohh - kaaaay. I'm beginning to wonder where you came by even the term "secular humanism". Aside from Chomsky, you seem completely unfamiliar with anything related to the philosophy or ideology or whatever it is. Barring the personal resentments you often express, that is.

    For the record, she is talking about the writings of Alan Watts and Gregory Bateson, and has not been acquainted with the nature of my "admiration" for their philosophies.

    Its not a superior culture, just a more pragmatic one, you don't need to pick a side here to be relevant.

    It's "pragmatic" that non-believers are "Losers" that will roast in a lake of fire.

    Indeed.

    People who believe in prayer should recognize it is the way to use voice activated software.

    Of course. Anyone who rejects the truth is condemned to live with the consequences. Wouldn't you agree?

    Are you now talking about reality or the magical world of Islam?

    Maybe not, but it doesn't usually matter. There are too many other things to do than pander to resentment.

    Depends on your version of "reality"

    After all, you seem to be quite fanatical in the dissemination of your own truths.

    Yes, you've made that vacuous statement before in order to divert. Another pathetic tactic on your part.

    That's actually quite funny coming from one who lives and breathes deluded truths.

    So, thinking has been given in to more important matters like praying five times a day?

    God can't do magical things?

    Does it matter in discussions like this one?

    Only insofar as one should learn from experience when an enterprise is generally pointless.

    Just for kicks I checked out both your examples:

    The one who was left to the mercy of his parents expectations after a public fraternal suicide and the other who could not find a Buddhist teacher who accepted his version of Buddhism.

    So it wasn't very far off my expectations, at least.

    We are not that far apart. Faith healers believe in their hocus pocus remedies. They use magic words such as "in the name of Jesus".

    Yes, there is, it's called being intellectually honest. You like to lie a lot.
