Creationism is a mental illness (Page 7)

lori100: and the mind?what happens to it?

BAD_WOLF__: God did it

Nicotina: The brain decomposes.

lori100: what if out of body experiences and encounters with God are real? some military remote viewers were shocked to find out many of the apparitions of the Virgin Mary were real events...

lori100: what section of the brain is the mind in? no section of the brain is labeled 'mind'....

BAD_WOLF__: What if it's a load of shit and this construct of God you have is a self fabricated illusion?

Nicotina: I'm not sure what you mean then lori.

lori100: look at any diagram of the brain...no part of it says 'mind'...

lori100: would be sad wolf...but not so...

Nicotina: What do you mean by "mind"?

lori100: consciousness....people are fully conscious when out of the body....no dependence on the brain...

BAD_WOLF__: It isn't so because you dont want it to be. As an agnostic I can admit the possibility of an omnipotent being. I need absolute proof though. You however are trapped in your way of thinking, unable to admit the possibility that you're wrong and this God you've made is your own construct. That is why you'll never convince a competent mind, your dogmatic beliefs chain you down

ghostgeek: When a machine "thinks", we will be one stage closer to understanding the mind.

lori100: what type of proof would convince you wolf?

lori100: a machine is not a person...

ghostgeek: What is a machine, in contrast to a person?

Nicotina: Consciousness ends at death.

BAD_WOLF__: Tangible evidence, something physical that proves beyond a doubt. Something I can touch, see, smell, taste or hear. Something that I can have before my very eyes that in no uncertain terms says "This is God, this is what it looks like"

lori100: people out of body haven't seen God, but have heard God telling them they must finish their life on Earth....

lori100: is consciousness energy?

lori100: Einstein ---
“Everyone who is seriously committed to the cultivation of science becomes convinced that in all the laws of the universe is manifest a spirit vastly superior to man, and to which we with our powers must feel humble" ......was Einstein a competent mind?

ghostgeek: An opinion is not a statement of fact.

lori100: true but many scientists believe in God

BAD_WOLF__: How is this evidence? That one man may believe in a vague higher power is your proof? Also the fact that they believe isn't proof either Lori. Any competent scientist will tell you that.
