So he used magic to get the answer, when he didn't know the question?

Re: Funny anti-religious Internet pics

And when a housemate stops by your room and tells you something he has no idea what it means, and it's the answer to what you asked for?

Interesting. It would be helpful to know whether the answer was something like 2π/5 or whether it was an answer as typically amorphous as a psychic's "reading," allowing it to be seen as the answer to any number of questions.

If I had the experience of a roommate's answer to a question I hadn't asked, I would want to rule out in my own mental processes anything like déjà-vu. The brain doesn't always remember things in the correct order; it sometimes confuses cause and effect, and in the situation you hint at, I would consider the possibility that my mind had found a question that fits the answer, and then failed to accurately perceive the sequence of events, editing it into place after the fact. Déjà vu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Next, if people are in the same environment, they are often exposed either to the same problems, or to each other's problems, entirely inadvertently. Questions and answers are two sides of the coin of a particular problem. It would not surprise me at all that our meat computers would be simultaneously plotting solutions or discerning questions.

Finally I would also be interested in esoteric hypotheses from physics. Is direct brain-to-brain communication possible? Could a question you ponder trigger thinking in the mind of someone else that would lead to him computing a solution? Don't know. Our minds are built on biological frameworks which are really just bits of physics. Maybe some parts of our mind indirectly depend on physics which are subject to some kind of quantum effects or something that would violate our everyday understanding that your mind and my mind are separate isolated systems.

You have admitted yourself that it was not an answer for the housemate: if you find an answer in a tree, it makes no sense to state that the tree knew a question and the answer to it.

Image text : ATHEISM, believing in one less god than you do. Seriously that's all there is to it.

You manage to post a lot of pics that don't show up.

But regarding this one: the difference between one and zero is infinity.

1 - 0 = ∞?

1 = ∞?

I don't see how infinity = god.

Maybe Minus Infinity

-∞ = dog

Re: Funny anti-religious Internet pics

I think such images fuel fundamentalist hatred and don't combat it.

It makes people angry, stubborn, resentful, unreasonable and sectarian.

It's an egregious, personal, offensive insult. It violates the golden rule. The effect is divisive.

What good will come of it?

Re: Funny anti-religious Internet pics

yeah right, religion of peace ?
Every-time anyone say "religion of peace" someone should immediately correct it into "religion of violence".

Housemate #1 had been trying to find something he misplaced. Not knowing about this, housemate #2 came in, looking puzzled, and told him he was supposed to open a certain container. The item was there.

That wasn't quite as chilling as the Sunday evening when I was sitting talking with another guy, and one of our housemates came bounding up the stairs, back from his weekend at home. The moment I saw him, I knew he hadn't gone home, and knew where he had gone and what he'd done.

Huh?

I asked:

See above.a post or two.

From the amount of "truth" in that, I see you're a Romney/Ryan Republican.

It's magical thinking on your behalf to somehow connect two events together in a cause effect relationship and to use this as evidence for the efficacy of prayer.

You should put that in the political cartoons thread.
