Where is Hope if folks 'wimp-out' with respect to Truth?
PF:-
Don't read this reply if it you can't take being challenged by having concepts as philosophically plain and potent as "SHITS", "CURSES", and "AEVASIVE" put in your way! Sincerely!
---
Peoples' hopes =are= -- or can be understood -- as 'hops/jumps/by-passings' done primarily within brains, and for a unifying -- "ambi-advantageous" -- reason.
This reason (termed so by me) consists of the adaptive advantage of being able to take whatever opportunity or opportunities is/are to be taken, AND of the very common adaptive advantage of being roughly simultaneously capable of coping with (by 'AEVASIVE style' self-regulation) externally and internally impacting physically *inescapable* environmental adversity and/or *past internalized* such adversity (normally automatically as if "put" into the brain as the type of long-term "memory states" that I alternatively defined/labeled as "CURSES").
This AEVASIVE (for "ambiadvantageously evolved...etc.) capability is *hugely elaborately* evolved in us humans.
The same acronym, by its 'terminologically tucked-away-inside' thorough definition, also refers to (and is an important means of generally, but also precisely and poignantly, explaining) all the events in phylogeny by which every single ambi-advantageous ('ambi-advantageously phenotyping') mutation -- i.e. mutations that immediately or eventually specifically result in "*ambi-advantageously adaptive* functures and behaviours" (i.e., a mutant possessing and capable of such)-- emerged.
The capacity for and tendencity towards relegious hopes/beliefs, *amongst much else*, is, accordingly, an AEVASIVE adaptation and an manifestation of the 'AEVASIVE subprinciple' (loosely put) of the principle of "Natural Selection".
That it for now!
Take care!
Peter
Anyway, that's where I stand.
It seems you can't get enough of 'walking me out on this plank', but please, it 'hurts', Peter.
If we 'move' in opposite-directions, we 'move' in opposite-directions.
I'm not 'trying-to-'convert' folks.
I'm only not 'moving away from' Truth, on my own behalf, because, if one 'moves away from' Truth, one 'moves away from' all that matters.
I don't do such.
Period.
So, if you want to continue 'berating' me because I Refuse to 'deny' Jesus' Priority, change your approach.
Show me anything that I've posted that's not-True.
You can't.
No one can.
All anyone can do, in that direction, is 'move away from' Truth, simultaneously, inviting Savagery into the midst of Humanity.
"Ho hum"?
I go against the 'coersed consensus' - the Prejudice - of 'science'.
I understand the 'costs', and Accept them.
I've 'scars'-enough, Peter. Put down the lash, take up Reason... Please.
Show me anything that I've posted that's not-True.
