My favorite part about some posters on here is they decide some other posters they perceive as being "other" are playing a game that has "goalpsts" and then dismiss "them" for moving the goalposts. So they don't have to engage
My second favorite part is how some posters refuse to engage unless posts are couched"correctly." Thus never needing to engage.
It is all like filling out a form online that keeps booting you out for not formatting correctly.

Biological evolution is survival of the fittest. How lovely that fittest is "being good."

This competition-based survival of the fittest is a myth. Nature demands both competition AND cooperation. But it sure fits the patriarchal narrative so bros can feel good about themselves.

It all depends how you define god. You are only using your sophomoric understanding of "a god".

Ok. How do you define “god”?

I looked up syllogisms. That's the all A is B, some B are C, therefore all A is C FALLACY stuff since it's really only some A might be B. Or whatever.

I think interpreting my question as a syllogism is questionable since I just asked if A and B were equivalent.

But if you just want to shut me down kewl Job Done as George said

It's just a way of structuring your argument. But it need not be in that form.

It seemed to me that your question "Explain relationship to extraterrestrial intelligence given current evidence?" , which was preceded by a statement "Atheists on here often say they sre rational and believe in science".

So yes, it appears that your question was related to the assertion about atheists, which is rejected. No one is trying to "shut you down" lol, just responding by saying the premise is flawed.

Do you understand that?

And I did not intend to be sexist, I meant "dick" as a synonym for "jerk", which would have been a slightly better choice and I mea culpa on that one. Apologies there.

My favorite part about religion is how everyone just moves the goalposts however they want to justify their beliefs.

Your use of the idiom “move the goal posts doesn’t fit here” .

Everybody defines God differently.

In your post you find God is a woo supernatural, that’s not everybody’s definition.

So you’re using the definition of Islam and/or Calvinist?

Aliens = feasible in the natural world

You are confusing posters.

Gods don’t exist. Only in people’s minds as some magic sky fairy with special powers.

Personally, I will withhold belief or even a position on life in space until there is evidence.

However, there is a TON of evidence that the building blocks of life exist all throughout our vast universe

https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasas-asteroid-bennu-sample-reveals-mix-of-lifes-ingredients/

https://theconversation.com/crucial-building-blocks-of-life-on-earth-can-more-easily-form-in-outer-space-new-research-228044

There are many more but I won't grey wall here. Check out videos by Forrest Valkai if you want things like this explained.

Given the difficult-to-grasp size of our universe, plus the variable of time, I can understand how some educated people feel that there is a good chance that it could exist elsewhere.

But I don't know of educated scientist who says it absolutely does.

And certainly none that run their lives around what those other life forms think, legislate based on those ideas, or go to worship those extraterrestrials on Sundays.

It's a stupid, apples to oranges comparison, clearly.

Please stop.

My definition is "A power that created the universe including but not limited to Earth or humans."
