  1. I believe it would be the human race disappearing What would it be in your opinion? I imagine someday, someone, or a group of people, wiping us, it would be kinda sad, but i guess we can't deny that it would be for the good of our host and its other guests I guess that achieving that would be wisdom, and not doing it would be egoism One could say that achieving this would be like giving up*, betraying the others *But giving up on what? On more discoveries? entertainment? enjoyment? I guess by posting this thread, i kinda hope someone would change my mind, but i guess this is just how it is I will always prefer to be sad and afraid than lying to myself, i hope
  2. These moments must have made him kinda hate people sometimes
  3. If by type you mean lacking knowledge then I confirm, that's why i opened this thread If you meant state of mind: when i imagine an animal suffering because of humans, that kills me, so i think i would be very motivated to act, maybe even happy, or maybe i would be too much afraid to make things worst
  4. I'm not sure you understood my line of thinking I was wondering if I see a dog hit by a car, slowly dying in agony I'm on foot, no tool nothing, how to make his pain stop as fast as possible @npts2020 i wasn't thinking about this, thank you
  5. @Phi for All I should ask them yes @zapatos Thank you for sharing It seems the most accessible and efficient method in my case would be to carry a knife, for bleeding And if I have none for whatever reason, i don't know what i should do, if it's like a big dog, what about kicks in the back of the neck? It might be very scary for the animal, and painful, but if it takes 4 seconds, is it better than bleeding to death for 4 minutes? I don't pretend i would have the guts to do these actions, but if i prepare myself in case that would happen, i guess if i'm confident i have the knowledge to do it, that could give me some courage to act
  6. @iNow What about if i have no knife/gun? @CharonY What about cervical dislocation if it's the size of a dog? By learning theory, could that allow to manage to complete the act at first try if i have to do it someday? Or it's very complicated and requires a lot of practicing? (and how would you practice such thing anyway...) I don't want to make the pain worst, except maybe if it's to reduce the duration a lot... I can't have a gun, and i'm not sure i want to carry a knife because i'm afraid that if i do, in case i get attacked, i would then get the reflex to count on it by priority, and i'm not sure that would be good But if carrying one could shorten a smashed animal suffering, i guess i will carry one, although i would still prefer to know how to do without, in case i forgot my knife etc ignore below, website bug, can remove this part (gonna report the bug):
  7. Hi I live in france, if i see an animal that got hit by a car, suffering to death on the road, i would like to shorten its suffering (if i see it's completely smashed and will die for sure) I don't even think there is a service of the government to call in such situation*, that could come fast to try to save the animal Could you please recommend a way to kill the animal so it's as fast as possible ? or slower if it's less painful, i hope you understand. Without knife/rocks, in case i have nothing. Regards *last time there was a dog, it seems he had a broken leg, i called the firefighters, 20 minutes after, still nothing, the guy on the phone said he sent people but i think he lied. Then a man from the SPA saw us and took the dog
  8. I think mine is like the majority of people but I was wondering if there is some way to make it naturally more protected But now i understand that the spine is the/a protector of the spinal cord I guess if there was muscle over it, we would struggle too much to e.g. grab stuff on the floor... ^^
  9. Ok thank you guys So it's normal that no muscle grow over the spine? I mean that you can directly feel it by touch... 😱
  10. Hello I don't do any power lifting, neither have a physical job, is it the reason i can feel my spinal cord bones so easily by finger touch? I'm not sure but it seems to me it's just how the human body is made I'm surprised it seems that much exposed, is there some way to make it less exposed? It's scary imo
  11. raphaelh42 posted a topic in Religion
    Hi Seems to me we always think god is someone nice etc, i propose we think things differently, maybe to have some fun but mostly to try to evolve about this subject Personally, if god / a god exists, i see it as a conscious living being, who created universe, for an experiment, to see how things would go in, maybe just to be curious/for fun, or maybe for a future job Anyway.... -> What if god was a jerk? What if god was dead?
  12. Hi, I ask this because it seems to me that randomness doesn't exist, I don't know what science/scientists think about this, and sorry for not having searched Google before posting E.g., when you throw dices, I believe 0% of the result is based on randomness, I believe 100% of the result has reasons, such as maybe the way the dices have been thrown, maybe the temperature of the room, the distance to the impact surface, its density... Is there some experiment that proves randomness exists?
  13. Hello I thought that eating meat and lentils did provide the same proteins and same effects, then I heard about PDCAAS Could you please suggest some mix/alliance of vegetable proteins to obtain the same result/quality of animals proteins? Regards
  14. But does it sounds logic anyway to you? and if not, why?
  15. I don't have a god, and to answer your second question, i would prefer my children to accept he is sad and afraid, so he fights to get some moments of true happiness and feelings of security, rather than he would just believe everything will be ok because he trusts in some god and prays. And I would ensure my children's priority is not to live a comfortable life, but to try to improve the world, according to his personal opinions. Imo, worst thing you can do is lie to yourself, and nothing is more important than the truth Meds can help you to lower the pressure for some time, to get some strength back, because in the end, you need to understand and fight the cause of the problem, not just hide the effects (imo.....) My person doesn't matter, i just try to bring more positivity than negativity to the life, so my time on Earth would have been more positive than negative, this is how i want to go through life, and this is what makes me happy, how do you want to go through life? Comfortably? ------------- @Phi for All Creating a religion because i don't like existing ones, is for me like creating a car because i don't like existing ones, or a chewing gum brand But I agree it's the concept i don't like in the end, and as i said in msg No.8 I deleted the religion I created This topic has some toxic flavor so I plan to stop debating about this, I just hope it has hurt some people but for positive effects
  16. That can make life easier yes I think if there is really a god, he would be proud of people who don't trade fear and sadness for hope And the devil would use the hope of the others to manipulate them | | Would you feel more proud of yourself if accepting fear and sadness, or trading them for hope?
  17. when saying i believe free will doesn't exist, i meant i believe you never take a decision/feel something only because of you, 100% of you but like it's all just a chain of events maybe we were not talking about the same thing | | no free will = no reason to feel proud neither i was not taking about instincts/reflexes
  18. I don't remember any specific experiences, this is just my feeling, I feel they are either brainwashed, by their parents since childhood, or by some friends, or even by themselves I feel religion is about trading fear and sadness for hope, would god be proud of you for doing that? I think no, but it would be useful for the devil | | I'm afraid and I'm sad*, i could convince myself that I believe in some god of some religion, then i would have hope, i would believe everything will be ok, but i prefer to remain honest with myself *i know things that makes me happy and not afraid | | Btw i'm surprised, i thought everyone on science forums were logically not religious
  19. i would have preferred to be able to edit first post instead of bumping thread ftr i deleted the religion i created because i don't like the practice of needing to have foundations written down it makes things kinda static and prevents evolution in my opinion was an interesting experience tho
  20. Pascal's wager seems to be just about to suggest to believe in god, so if it/he/she exists, then you will get rewarded because you did believed in it, practiced rituals etc sound like a coward practice to me like not listening to what you think, but just act by the book, and hope the person who created universe will be nice with you if it exists how can you really believe if the idea is "if it exists", this is contradictory imo | | | Anyway i enjoyed sharing my thoughts with you guys, as always
  21. I did read a bit the definition and it seemed to me a synonym could be relation, link... After thinking again it seems to me what you meant is that Pascal’s wager says free will exists and controls everything you do, and what i said is that it doesn't exist and it's the fatalism that controls everything you do Please let me know if i still don't get it i see it this way: external factors > your brain > act/think So i get what you mean, think/mind listening = listen to external factors I would say your mind/brain orders/filters external factors, depending on other external factors ---------- Excuse me but it seems to me that having no conscience means not being conscious and means being dead You meant sociopaths have no regrets maybe Maybe when they miss an opportunity to hurt someone, they regret having missed it? Maybe when they miss the bus they regret not having wake up early? Not feeling guilty doesn't have to mean you don't feel regrets E.g. "it's not my fault but i wish i didn't do it" ----- Hmm for real not for me, i really believe 100% of things that i think and do, have a reason, they are just not coming purely "from me"* I believe when you born you are like an empty box, some are bigger boxes than others, some are thicker Then life puts stuff into this box, then the box will react, according to what life did put into the box I think the good and the bad the box will do, is not caused by the cardboard, although it is acting The question is why it is acting like this -> i shared my opinion above *but yes i guess i understand, you meant e.g if you drop a glass = oops sorry my bad (reflex) But why did you drop it... i mean reflexes can change | | | Anyway it seems to me it's obvious that if you don't believe in free will, you "should" believe that you shouldn't feel guilt (doesn't mean you (manage to) don't feel it in the end) I mean it's pure logic to me......
