    individuals and groups about blasphemy laws and defends freedom
    of expression, especially the open criticism of religion which is
    criminalized in many countries”.

    nice. so are you a pious person?

    Why do you ask? It wouldn't affect the accuracy of my
    comment either way.


    i have no qualms with its accuracy. i am curious and want to know
    the kind of views believers and non-believers espouse.

    Hopefully, both "espouse" the same reality, the facts of
    which are not subject to belief or disbelief.


    that's a nice dream.

    Isn't it, though?

    Have a nice day, and try to expand beyond your parochialism
    WRT the relevance of religion; the world isn't identical to
    your social circle.

    relevant to helping people navigate life in 2020s and post.

    It's relevant if you live anywhere in the Islamic controlled
    world, and
    many other places as well.

    Yep. The answer to which you replied is hopelessly
    parochial; "it's irrelevant to my immediate social circle,
    therefore it's irrelevant for everyone and everywhere".


    i would regard religious people as fundamentally wrong, being on
    the wrong side of history. being wrong also means it provides no
    benefit to its adherents. they are choosing to become obsolete.




    The closest to a religion I'd believe would be
    synchronicity+pansichysm, but far from
    any judeo-christian/islamic sect or dogma.


    there might be something to synchronicity, but panpsychism.... ehhh
    dont think so.


    No one's saying there's synchronicity jojo.

    you are saying it, you are saying there is panpsychism.


    I don't know what that is.

    nice. so are you a pious person?

    Why do you ask? It wouldn't affect the accuracy of my
    comment either way.


    i have no qualms with its accuracy. i am curious and want to know
    the kind of views believers and non-believers espouse.

    Hopefully, both "espouse" the same reality, the facts of
    which are not subject to belief or disbelief.


    that's a nice dream.

    Isn't it, though?

    Have a nice day, and try to expand beyond your parochialism
    WRT the relevance of religion; the world isn't identical to
    your social circle.


    Hey Bob,

    Heads up about Jojo -- Mom needs to take his (her?) Internet away, and
    until that happens, discretion is advised.

    I don't think a ban is necessary. He is fixed in his atheism. Utter
    sacrilege and blasphemy. Blasphemy is a victimless crime.

    The closest to a religion I'd believe would be
    synchronicity+pansichysm, but far from
    any judeo-christian/islamic sect or dogma.


    there might be something to synchronicity, but panpsychism.... ehhh
    dont think so.


    No one's saying there's synchronicity jojo.

    you are saying it, you are saying there is panpsychism.


    I don't know what that is.

    it means you are connected with everyone and everything in the universe through some substrate.

    And your mind is a Spearmint wrapper. With boiling kettle of Bud weisr.

    I can't remember if I've take a pohoto of m' penis.

    Proof:
    If he can't remember if he tok a photo of his penis then consider if he
    held a sweet ass puss. Every day he would judge whether he haf token a
    photo of his penis and by day 53, the conclusion that he has never taken
    phjoto of his penis settles in for the seventh or ninth time depending
    on how studly Ed the Talking Horse was.

    relevant to helping people navigate life in 2020s

    It's relevant if you live anywhere in the Islamic

    I don't think a ban is necessary.  He is fixed in his atheism.
    Utter sacrilege and blasphemy.   Blasphemy is a victimless crime.

    (her?) Internet away, and until that happens,
    discretion is advised.

    think about it, i have never taken its pic...

    you dont think she is being totally unfair to me? i will go mad
