What if there is no God?
Andromedus
are you humans going to do then?
Finding yourself eternally reincarnating and back on Earth
once again, except each time things are worse?
Or do you think you will merely self destruct upon death and
that's the end of it. Bingo, gone for ever, no point or
reason whatsoever for having existed at all?
Or do you think miraculously there is some proverbial
wonderful place that you can go to, providing this or
providing that, depending on which religion you subscribe
to, although no one knows and no one can be sure as to what
on earth anyone should do, although a good does of prejudice
and hatred and downright ugliness are obvious requirements?
Don't you think you should take things into your own hands
"just in case" instead of depending on some pixie in the
sky, some Jesus or Allah or whoever, full of hate and
prejudice to come and "save" you, and conveniently fix your
problems and your mistakes and conveniently eliminate your
enemies as if you believe in some weapon of mass destruction
who conveniently is only on your side or your side or his
side or their side or whoever's side depending on which
religion you subscribe to and which particular hatred or
prejudice you have?
Do you think that is what intelligent people do?
Do you think that is the answer?
Each different religion with different sets of hatred and
imperfections and nastiness.
Each causing their own peculiar ugliness in the human
people.
SCIENCE can give you eternal life. SCIENCE can give you
paradise. SCIENCE can give you eternal youth, good health,
improved sight and hearing, a Global Brain, connectivity,
mind and thought reading, visual and thought transference,
invisibility, reliable computers, bionic limbs and eyes and
ears, hugely improved sight and hearing, cures for all
ills, long distance space travel, reliable computers, and
indeed SCIENCE can overcome death.
And you sit around on your asses and PRAY?
What you get in this Universe, you WORK for and get
yourselves.
If you are not prepared to do the work, then we are not
prepared to speak to you.
We offered to teach you all those things, you think WE did
not have to work and use our intelligence and ingenuity and
drive and ambition and energy and testosterone to have all
the things we had? To learn and know all the things we did?
You think we sat on our asses and prayed in order to achieve
all we did?
You think we became the most Advance and most Intelligent
and most Powerful force in existence by sitting on our asses
and praying?
You think we became that way by wasting our time with women
or domesticity and breeding or by waging war and killing
each other?
If you human men want to breed and spend your time doing
what the ladies want and feeding baby and wiping baby's
bottom, then you just ain't gonna make it in Science.
And if you want to spend your time praying to various absurd
figures who could not possibly exist, then you ain't gonna
make it in this Universe.
If you are not prepared to do the work, then do not expect
to achieve the results.
You can pray for ever, and you will never get any results,
or you can work and achieve all you want and all you desire
the same way we did.
You can bet on a sure thing.
Or you can take a risk that some ridiculous pixie in the sky
does exist. Albeit horribly imperfect and with whatever
hate or prejudice suits.
Intelligence is the answer.
Science is the answer.
A passion and a desire for a perfect existence free of
suffering for all the people is the answer, and you get that
by your own hard work.
And that hard work is a sure thing.
For that is the only way you will achieve anything.

A surrogate 'god' presents every instant!
The 'laws' of Physics and the fact of existence,
are always with 'us'. They are, in effect, God.
In that context, information structures, such as
'humans', support virtual realities that include
many 'representations'. Some virtual realities may
include personification stories about the mysteries
of existence. 'Humans' thus, 'do', by behaving as the
dictates of the situation 'are'. Such as neurotheology.

Exactly, the implications of global warming is that the weather allows
more food to grow and the population on earth explodes with
believers... Once global warming subsides, the children or
grandchildren of believers will starve or die in wars... Everybody
knows it... Live for today is the religious persons motto.

Science is eternally optimistic but the reality may be that science is
on vacation until the end of the next ice age.
