Re: If you can remove one thing from the world

Men..... But if I remove men, then I would have to remove women. So then I would need to remove the whole of the human race. But then the oposite to humans are apes, so I'll have to remove them, if I then remove apes then I would have to remove monkeys. So my question is: what is the oposite of monkeys, wouldn't that be apes. Which wouldn't exsist because I've already removed them?

But even if you did remove athesism there will still be science. So you'll still have science, you just wouldn't have religion. And a world without religion would be the greatest place ever. But my name wouldn't be Bastet.

Crime, therefore religion too, because of terrorists. When there is no crime, there is no need for guns. When there is no religion, there is no need for temples, churches and stuff.
But i think when u remove something, then u'll have to remove everything, because all the things are connected in the world But i cant remove anything.

This's the first time i heard ape is the opposite of human...
Now here is the question: define "opposite"

Religion gives ppl hope, a leap faith. When the time comes, for example when your gf/bf suffer a car accident and is in hospital. The doctor says he/she is in a comma, etc... I'm sure that's the time you are hoping for miracles and you'll eventually go to the church even if you are a skeptic. Just only science doesn't help you in the world of sentimental.

UnbeatableDevil wrote:So according to silo, if you remove religion, you are removing athesism too?

"religion" and "atheism" would be removed from the dictionary. "Science" still exists, it's just that humans don't know their position between religion and atheism. Supposedly ppl in that time believe that the universe is created from the Big Bang. Because there are ppl who believe in the Big Bang, by definition, there will be ppl who don't believe in the it, which create a new wave of religion. This new wave of religion, instead of believing in God, they believe in smt else, for example, which could explain the origin of the universe.
Religion removed, linked words such as "God, hope, faith, Jesus (the calendar is shifted as well coz Jesus birth date has no value), holidays, church, marriage, ceremony, etc.." will be also removed (and its opposite as well)

Yeah I read it lol. :3
Just saying, when some women say they want to remove men I see a big flaw in that logic.

Jesus is born 33 years before year 0...anyway
I would remove nuclear logic because there is no opposite :D

Of course an ape is the opposite of us or we're the opposite of an ape. We evolved from apes and monkeys, so our opposite must me an ape.

If we evolved from apes then aren't we more similar then opposite.

But then again human and animal, and taking a step in the opposite direction in evolution.



Can organisms really even have opposites anyway?

But the opposite of this thread is a good thread. So you'll have to delete a good thread as well.

Atheism isn't about being a militant against religion; it's about logic over tradition and truth over dogma.

And that is where the absence of believe in deities comes from. Good post!

Religion exists because the origin of human and the universe are still unclear. Isn't what we know till know are simply "theory"? It's not like ppl can see with their own eyes. And because the logic of theories are not strong enough, still holding lots of mystery around, that's why religion still exists.

NoNoNo. Nuclear, Religion doesn't give hope, hope has meaning. It gives false hope, and a false sense of security, that is used to opiate the masses, and was made thousands of years ago, by people that didn't have the technology we had. It was written in the bible that wearing clothes that had two different colors in it, meant you were going to hell. So I mean, it really is pretty clear that it doesn't exist, so yeah I would get rid of that. But this topic is silly, because if you get rid of something, that doesn't mean you lose it's opposite??? If I get rid of all violence, it doesn't mean I get rid of non-violence, it means I just change the standard of violence into nothing, thereby creating a world with no violence. So you have no warrant for your logic or anything, and when something is dissipated, it's opposite isn't. Let's say I get rid of religion, we don't get rid of atheism, but the idea of atheism is rid, but is the only idea in existence, so it would just be the norm.

scientific theory - To scientists, a theory provides a coherent explanation that holds true for a large number of facts and observations about the natural world. It has to be internally consistent, based upon evidence, tested against a wide range of phenomena and demonstrate problem solving.

Nothing in there about making shit up.

Einstein's Theory of Relativity is "simply a theory"...
