[MD] Metaphysics

[markhsmit]

Hi Arlo,

No, we do not have to trudge through it once you understand it
to be true.  What I hear from you is unquestioning faith.  As if
what you believe could not be wrong.  This is religion to
its extreme.  I can see I will not convince you otherwise.

Some day it will hit you like a diamond bullet.  There is
nothing derogatory about religion except your attitude.
Everything is a system of belief.  No better no worse.

Go ahead, consider yours to be better, just don't go
marching into war, and shoot all those religious
people.

Cheers,
Mark

If science tells you that the sun is a big ball of flame and you believe it 
implicitly without question, without having any evidence other than a holy book 
that says it is so, doesn't that make it a religion?

No. (Do we really need to trudge through the "everything is faith, so science 
is just another religion" nonsense again? Ai yi yi...)
