Rocky john replied to Adam's discussion 'Do Men have the right to a "financial abortion"'"It does not haveto be contested whether they were used in every case i am sure. And in some of the cases i think that being on the pill is the females medical records not to forget implants are most definitly easily provable. If the condom breaks…"
Rocky john replied to Adam's discussion 'Do Men have the right to a "financial abortion"'"I think one important consideration should be whether preventitive measures where used. If preventitive measures where used and they failed then i think the male should be able to opt out if she decides to keep it. While if no preventitive…"

Rocky john replied to Emily DW's discussion 'What's Your Best Argument For God?'"As far as i understand that does not have to mean any of those infinite multiverses have to contain a god.
Infinity is a strange concept and it turns out you can have infinities of different lengths that are still the same size. For arguments…"
Rocky john replied to Emily DW's discussion 'What's Your Best Argument For God?'"Even if the multiverse theory is true and there are infinite multiverses it does not neccesary mean everything must happen somewhere. An example is if you start at 0 and count upwards in 2's you will have an infinite series that…"
Rocky john replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"Personally i will be perfectly fine to start off with not needing any more proof for god than i would need for proof that my next door neighbor exists"
Rocky john replied to Emily DW's discussion 'What's Your Best Argument For God?'"As far as i am concerned religion has only had one internally consistent and some what convincing argument for belief in god. Fortunately it has fallen out of favor in most civilized countries. The general form of it runs somewhat like this "…"
Rocky john replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"Mercedes you keep on bringing up the bible as proof of god ,so i think it would surprise you to learn that a fair number of the atheists here ,myself included, only became atheists after reading the whole bible through. Personaly i actually find the…"
Rocky john replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"You seem so stuck on the bible. What about the tens of dozens of other holy books, some much older than the bible and most which are alot more internally consistent. Do they prove that that vishnu ,krishna, allah and the tao exist?"

Rocky john replied to Unseen's discussion 'Is justice just a matter of chance?'"Just because something is lawful within a justice system and happens with due process does not mean it is right.

Rocky john replied to Unseen's discussion 'Is justice just a matter of chance?'"Well i am relatively certain that if they where giving the choice between life in prison and death most will choose prison.so atleast from their subjective opinion execution will most often be worse.

- Well at about the age of 15 or so i had a few minor questions regarding my religion and the priests could not answer them to my satisfaction. so i decided to sit dow and read the bible to see gods own word for myself. A few chapters in i already began to have doubts, and a few days later when i had finished reading that damned book i realised i only had 2 possible options that was to either believe what i had read and therefor become a malthiest, or to throw the whole lot out and become an atheist

The most important picture ever taken

It was taken back in 2004 when they pointed the hubble telescope at an apparently empty piece of space ,smaller than a 1 mm-by-1 mm square of paper held 1 meter away, over a period of 4months.

I have tried time and again to explain the sheer magnitude of what it represents, with little luck. I have what most would consider a 'spiritual' experience when I sit and think about what that picture represents. Thank you for sharing it; I haven't looked at it in awhile. :)
