Blondin replied to Joli's discussion 'Abortion'"Excellent points, Strega.
"Can you imagine a society where the more intelligent or better off element decides not to have children but the poorer and less educated have them all the time? Er, not looking good, is it?"
This is the premise…"
Blondin replied to Joli's discussion 'Abortion'"Your story brought a tear to my eye, Jennifer. Thanks for relating it.
I don't know any person or group that is advocating on-demand 3rd trimester abortions for non-medical reasons. When it becomes a question of risking the mother's life…"
Blondin replied to Citizen Atheist's discussion 'Is reality subjective?'"What Reggie said.
To quote Philip K Dick: Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.
The scientific method helps us to asymptotically approach the truth about reality. New data could always cast doubt on or…"
Blondin replied to Nate Warnock's discussion 'Dealing with the inevitable'"I think everything I was going to say has already been expressed by others in this thread so I just want to contribute a little poem by the Digital Cuttlefish called "Worms Go In":
When we are dead, we’ll feed the wormsAnd other…"
Blondin replied to M.B.'s discussion 'Define God'"That's kind of a trick question. As Noam Chomsky once said, "...I can't even call myself an "atheist" because it is not at all clear what I'm being asked to deny."
How does one define something one…"
Blondin replied to Kim Roder's discussion 'How much "better" is atheism really?'"I would like to add that if Jewelz hadn't posted that xkcd comic I was going to.
Kim, you are talking hyperbolic nonsense. Atheism is no a basis for any kind of belief system or world view. It is merely one result of thinking clearly and…"
Blondin commented on Bobby Rutgers's blog post 'Religious guy tried to convert me and a few friends in a Tim Hortons parking lot - very annoying.'"I get into a lot of discussions like this. I'm an amateur astronomer and my friends & I often set up our scopes for public outreach sessions. It's not just religion but astrology, UFOs, chemtrails, Apollo moon hoax and a number of…"
Blondin replied to Ronbun Kontan's discussion 'The fear of death'"I agree.
I have softened my stance on this subject. I used to say that I really didn't want any kind of funeral or service - that if they really wanted to respect my wishes they would do as little as possible in that regard. However, about five…"
Blondin commented on Gaytor's blog post 'Thank God for the Destruction of the Parthenon'"Lovely. I've just returned from Turkey where I learned similar histories about places like the Aya Sophia, Heirapolis, Apollo's Temple, Aphrodisias, etc. Those Romans left a lot of ruins laying around."
Blondin commented on Loren's blog post 'I hate that you've given up.'"I would say that people who reject science, doubt and questioning are the ones who have "given up". Isaac Newton gave up when he used a god-of-the-gaps argument to explain diversity and complexity in the universe. If it weren't for…"
Blondin replied to Ronbun Kontan's discussion 'The fear of death'"The Worms Go In
-- The Digital Cuttlefish
When we are dead, we’ll feed the wormsAnd other stuff that writhes and squirmsAnd if you cannot come to termsWith that—well, use your head!There are no ifs nor ands nor buts:Bacteria within our…"
Blondin replied to AntiChristianLeague's discussion 'Is it possible to sue this asshole, or get him thrown in jail?'"According to this new article from last week WalMart and Bradlee Dean had a "falling out" and his people shouldn't be soliciting funds at WalMart stores any more."
