Yepperoni, thanks for putting this so succinctly.

What would you say to a person who refuses to acknowledge or take into consideration the belief of a religious individual?

I don’t hold belief against people so long as they act appropriately toward others.

I have some positive and negative opinions toward particular religions based on their foundations and practices.

I kinda long for a sense of spiritual community, but I can’t make myself have faith in something I don’t believe, no matter how nice it seems. So that kinda sucks

preach (pun intended)

I am very nice. I could probably be kinder, but I think if I was I’d be letting myself get walked on and stuff, so I don’t think it’s all that good to be too polite.

Being in a relationship gives me a sense confidence in myself.

If you do not hear these people out, you are denying yourself the chance for a better life. By refusing to believe you are capable of what you want, you are making it impossible for you to achieve your goals. Because you won’t try.

Good luck ❤️

That’s a pretty good way of putting it

Did you intend this to be relevant?

Scientific evidence is through experiments using the scientific method, which tries to eliminate bias. The wikipedia article provides both adequate and inadequate experiments. You are biased and you’re “testing” in uncontrolled environments. You could hardly call it evidence.

You are cherry picking and only acknowledging information that supports telepathy. You are ignoring the evidence against it, which takes majority. Why?

The scientific method aims to refine theories based on new and best available evidence. There isn’t compelling scientific evidence supporting telepathy, but the fallibility of human vision is extensively documented. So how come you think it’s 50/50?

that’s cute!

I have a question. Do you truly think it’s more likely that something extraordinary is occurring, rather than concluding humans aren’t built perfect? Or is it more exciting to believe that something cool and magical is happening, and you perhaps choose to pursue that possibility?

And I think it’s a result of our evolutionary trait of being very sensitive to people looking at us. If we see someone out of the corner of our eye looking at us it alerts us. And if we truly can’t see them, we can’t tell at all, but checking to see if they’re looking at you makes them feel stared at, so they’ll look at you back. Is that confusing?

Wikipedia sums it up well. In proper scientific tests, it’s fruitless.

Combined with the human hyper sensitivity of being looked at, probably.

The outcome is yours to decide

That’s a really amazing story

I think I originally checked it out after watching an LTT video on a gaming distro, because i liked computers and I was pretty good at them. Not sure if I was the problem or the distro but it was pretty bad. Still fell in love.

Now I appreciate the open source aspect, but I still like it because I can do more with it and learn in the process.

Whoops, I think they meant software support, like how long the phone is updated for. Hopefully this still helps.

I never quite understood the headphone jack thing. It’s a nifty thing to have but an adapter is a one time purchase. It seems like nowadays lack of headphone jack is just a minor inconvenience.
