Humanoid Aliens?
Define head? For instance, a human head is the center of our intelligence, while a squid head is only, roughly, the center of it's body. As for the topic, humanoid alien's are a human concept/conceit; the chance that equivelent intelligent life is our doppelganger, is astronomically (pun intended) small...

What is the nature of our existence?
Some time's more word's lead to less understanding, unless your seriously suggesting that a rock has time to think about it??? 🙄 If that made sense, it would be on a bumper already... 🧐

Evidence of NO design
Which bit is tripping you up? The word's??? This is another double edged sword; for instance, in your culture it's easier to scoff at people your teacher's don't understand, than to investigate their claims. IOW, what Neitzche said... What word is tripping you up?

Antimatter falls like matter
Well, that makes gravity easier/harder to understand.

What is the nature of our existence?
Please correct me if I'm wrong but your theory/hypothesis is, the nature of our existence is subjective... A rock exists, it just doesn't think about it... 😉

Evidence of NO design
I'm sorry I had to cancel that +1 because you're not making any sense, let alone a serious critique of religions. Your just poking fun at people who haven't had your advantaged view, from the shoulder's of people you trust but don't understand, I'm not suggesting that we shouldn't take the piss out of people who choose to ignore the evidence. This sort of argument ignores the rest of the book, because someone said "I don't know, maybe god did it." (due to a lack of evidence, to the contrary); that's like saying the American constitution is not valid because someone once said "I need my slaves". Essentially you're making the same mistake as those who demand a God is real, you both focus on the wrong message.

Evidence of NO design
Does it though? Revenge is a fantasy, much like my sex life; it's only real in my head... 😇

Evidence of NO design
Intelligent design is seen in every anthill and bee hive, it takes a conscious being to make it illogical... 😉

Evidence of NO design
Imagine if you were a victim of Jimmy Saville, hell is the only place he'd face justice; imagining that he was turned into a human centipede, his mouth sewn to his own arse, so he'd have to taste the shit from the cum of a garlic and vindaloo eating, well endowed child as the devil plugged up the other end. Why would you deny him/her that smile of satisfaction? Or!!! Those who inspire religions design their offerings, so that people don't have to rely on hell to bring a smile to their face... 🙏

What makes you think your so much better, because you have a smart phone, that you don't understand???

Evidence of NO design
Exactly, how we relate too...

Evidence of NO design
Much like gravity is an apparent force?

Evidence of NO design
Evidence of no design, would be a featureless desert; evolution just designs by accident...😉
-
Evidence of NO design
No!!! It's a critique of the notion of a designer; different question... 🙄

Evidence of NO design
This is just an excuse to poke fun at people who don't think like you; it's not a serious critique of religion. That's a double edged sword. 😉

Free Markets Fantasy
Nope, everyone has a boss; for the free market, it's people with money. It would be like the world of the Cherokee, for example, they had no word for ownership... One of the interesting aspects of the Cherokee language is that it does not have a word for ownership. This reflects the Cherokee worldview that everything belongs to the Creator and that humans are only stewards of the land and its resources

Real is what we can detect and interpret with our 5 senses (split from Picture of an atom. What is it?)
So, how do you explain balance?

BBC2 Series 'Earth'
Yes it is, and it's informative, a tricky thing to do. But I'm with @studiot, the timeline issue confused rather than informed because, unlike "Pulp Fiction", the narrative didn't help to link to the story/entertainment. In this context, I don't see a difference TBH. I enjoyed it. I wonder if it was because of overlapping (as in a Venn), a contiguous timeline would just add to much complication for the average viewer.

Was the war on drugs harmful to us as a society?
The war on anything is a futile gesture, as history shows; for instance, if all the money we spend on war's, was spent on avoiding war's, then no one would feel the need to take drugs... 😉

Consciousness 'theory'?
I think they're just trying to ride the gravy train.

Evidence Of Design
OK, so what is the benefit of your god? How to not care if god is real... 😉 Nietzche would disagree.

Artificial Consciousness Is Impossible
Two thing's: 1. The question I asked is, how does this support your topic thesis? 2. Everything that work's is by design, from the ant to the human, for instance, the antill is designed by ant's unconsciously; why is that any different to a loom or a planet?

Evidence Of Design
Why do you need a creator? The bible isn't tellin a story of god, it's "self help" publication.

What are the benefits of God?
For me this is the difference between a tax and a tythe, people are happy to pay a tythe, even if they have no intention of being benevolent; just in case. Perchance he for whom this bell tolls may be so ill, as that he knows not it tolls for him; and perchance I may think myself so much better than I am.... -John Donne.
