That's not true and that wouldn't make logic subjective. What makes it subjective is that we must chose axioms and rules of inference. The most obvious example would be the law of the excluded middle. Intuitively, it appears to make sense at first, but the certainty of it really seems to melt down especially with developments of the 20th century. Anyway, I'm between C and D. I act on the hypothesis of there being no God, but I admit the non-zero probability that it exists. |

I suppose that I did, but my comment still stands about the Turing Machine.

Used to be quite anti-religious. Warming to it again as the journey moves along. I've had some personal experiences in the last year which have helped me see things a bit clearer. But I've never claimed to "know" what the truth is and I never will. I'll believe what brings me peace and not sweat the details.

I believe there is nothing worth calling God. Nothing anywhere near resembling an all-powerful being pulling strings and all that. There may be some weird, deeper level to the universe, and maybe that can or cannot be understood by humans. The real issue is is there anything out there worth worshiping, sacrificing to, appeasing, pretending like you give a sh*t about church for, or anything even sort of worth believing through faith based on shaky evidence? And that answer is no.

Actually, the success of D here shouldn't be so surprising in hindsight. Prog fans tend to be on the intellectual side and intellectuals tend to be less religious.
(Note: This is not the silly "religious people are stupid" argument and shouldn't be responded to as such. Intellectual is not the same thing as intelligent.)

Also, it's the internet. The only holy name on here is Richard Dawkins, lol. Jesus hasn't figured out how to use computers yet, but he's a 2000 year old Jew, so I wouldn't expect that to be forhtcoming, lol

Wait, Jesus DOES know how to use a computer: he has a blog! Filled with cute kitten!
Well, at least, that's what Hikaru Nakamura says in his mangas... |

Used to be D, have slowly moved into B territory, where I am today, and where I think I'll stay. Okay.

All religion post-1979 lacks the production values to make it worthy of listening to. Pre-1980 religion is where it is at.
And C for me.

Failcore: Yeah, the internet *hates* religion. Which is probably why religion is doomed, I don't think they can get around that.
