Modern scientists are evil. According to them, the ancient Greek (Democritus - father of the atom) who philosophized the idea that 'things got smaller and smaller' should have just "shut up", because he couldn't prove shit.

This is an intentional misinterpretation of the atheistic position. Believing that life and can be magical and believing you can convince God to cure your cancer if you ask really nicely are completely different ideas.
>>
>>16695395
Nope. Atheists hate when people claim that magic still exists in the world. I once had a physics professor lose his cool on me for saying “well if you don’t see nature as magical then you don’t truly appreciate nature or science so you?”, and it wasn’t even directed at him.

Yes. There are people out there who see the beauty and mystery and wonder (and thus magic) within nature, and there are those who just cannot. They struggle to. They get angry. Very angry.

It’s the same with theists, and not just the atheists, thobeit. They don’t want to see their god as something.

See right here. They will argue God has no substance, because they see God as bigger than nature. This makes no sense. They’re retarded. They’re arguing that he doesn’t exist!
>>
>>16695395
>Believing that life and can be magical and believing you can convince God to cure your cancer
If that actually happened, it would be a case of a big ass alien just deciding to be nice to you, an ant, for some unknown reason, or purpose, maybe even just to entertain some silly belief system for the lulz. I don’t know. But that’s bedsides the point. Any sort of miracle of such degree will require a greater intelligence to put it into place. Why would ants expect jelly beans any other way? Coincidence? The jelly beans are still made in a factory.

Atheists don’t like to acknowledge that a sufficiently godlike alien being can totally be worshiped as a god or something.

Theists don’t like acknowledging that their god is just a big alien and believing in gods is a variant of believing in aliens.
>>
>>16695395
Triggered atheist spotted. I guarantee you say shit like “it’s not magic”, at one point or another, anyway.

Saying “magic isn’t real” is a lot more apt, but it is nonetheless about as helpful as saying that “cold doesn’t exist”, or “dark doesn’t exist”, or “holes don’t exist”, etc.

What "God" is really all about:

>And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

>And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

What life is really all about:

Aho Mitakuye Oyasin... All my relations. I honor you in this circle of life with me today. I am grateful for this opportunity to acknowledge you in this prayer...

To the Stars, for the ultimate gift of life, I thank you.

To the mineral nation that has built and maintained my bones and all foundations of life experience, I thank you.

To the plant nation that sustains my organs and body and gives me healing herbs for sickness, I thank you.

To the animal nation that feeds me from your own flesh and offers your loyal companionship in this walk of life, I thank you.

To the human nation that shares my path as a soul upon the sacred wheel of Earthly life, I thank you.

To the Story nation that guides me invisibly through the ups and downs of life and for carrying the torch of light through the Ages. I thank you.

To the Four Winds of Change and Growth, I thank you.

You are all my relations, my relatives, without whom I would not live. We are in the circle of life together, co-existing, co-dependent, co-creating our destiny. One, not more important than the other. One nation evolving from the other and yet each dependent upon the one above and the one below. All of us a part of the Great Mystery.

Thank you for this Life.

Not who you replied to, but I'm an atheist.
The history of the universe demonstrates a universal trend towards "increasing complexity," meaning it continually expands the diversity of its possible interactions and thus creative freedom.
The universe grasps beyond its immediate conditions towards novel possibilities.
Life grasps beyond its immediate conditions towards the possibility of sustenance.
Consciousness grasps beyond its immediate conditions of knowledge and experience towards The Unknown.
Creativity is intrinsic to existence by necessity. Otherwise there'd be no time, and thus no existence. Time isn't a "dimension" everything "travels in" but the creative advance of the universe.

Magic is the chemistry in the brain that leads up to "wow it's like magic", you numbskull. Whether something is seen as magic is an opinion. That "awe at the ineffable beauty of nature" is what led up to religion. The ancients looking up to the stars in the night sky and seeing them as gods.

“It’s not magic, it’s X” is just disingenuous. Magic is a feeling. But it’s also the phenomena to reinforce it.

“Magic isn’t real” is about as useful as saying cold isn’t real, or darkness isn’t real, or holes aren’t real, etc.

I think magic is a really interesting concept or word because its very definition is something done without explanation. It's really more of a psychological trick than a real word, because what you're actually doing is saying you don't understand something, yet at the same time you're saying you explained it. It's the same way people sometimes use the word "God", or even "science".

I can't think of another word with that level of fallacious thinking built into the core of its meaning.

Saying the n-word is a curse because it drives people insane, like a mental assault. “Roll for Sanity loss”, as /tg/ puts it. There’s a reason why a spell is called a spell. Why magic is associated with words and speech. Why charisma is the thing that creates cults. Etc.

Yes they would? I can prove it, because what'st rue today and what's true tomorrow might not be the same thing.

>>
>>16730689
>dark matter/energy
Don't have to go that far; they don't even actually understand how it works on Earth.
Science models reproducible patterns. The models can predict how things move in relation to mass based on repeated observation, but they actually have no idea why do things move in relation to mass in such way, i.e. how "gravity" works, and ultimately what it can or cannot do.
This applies to everything in science. It's ultimately a discipline of divination.

Property of equality: For any real number a, it is always true that a=a.

Let a=1.
Then by the reflexive property:
1=1
1=1

1=1 is true by definition and logic, as part of the fundamental axioms of mathematics. Ir's not science's fault you're irredeemably retarded.

Why the declarative statement of 2+2=5? I've seen that being brought up formulating belief rather than pure illogical means. For some things made false has suddenly been fabricating truths. Side note: there's also magic numbers.

This doesn't address the original point at all, which is about the reflexive property of equality. Bringing up 2+2=5 is a non sequitur. it’s not logically connected to the statement 1 = 1. Mathematical truths are derived from formal systems of logic and are not a matter of belief. The reflexive property is a foundational axiom in math. It's universally accepted because it's necessary for coherent reasoning. Introducing irrelevant slogans like 2+2=5 or ambiguous notions of “belief” doesn’t refute this principle. You're just derailing into pseudo-intellectual vagueness. If you want to challenge the axiom, you’d have to reject standard logic systems altogether,and if you do that then you’re no longer engaging in reasoned argument, just incoherent wordplay.

The phrase "2+2=5" is just a well-known symbol used to represent the manipulation of truth and the erosion of objective reality, most famously originating from George Orwell's dystopian novel Nineteen Eighty-Four. And, unfortunately, a guide book for which certain countries deemed it prohibited for the average civilian to read.

How is science not bloody magic?

All scientists are sorcerers to some shade. That's why they seek theories of everything to unify different layers of reality. It's as if scientists believe as-above-so-below and as-within-so-without. Scientists believe in summoning entities that transcend the body like AI and wish to become transhuman themselves. Don't forget scientists' quest for immortality either…and think about their obsession with seeking patterns, their inclination to turn patterns into geometrical representations, and their wish for theory to be beautiful! Scientists might as well wear robes and dissect bodies on altars- no, wait, they're already doing that… Christ, they might as well sacrifice materials in rituals to gain a material back with transcended properties. Oh wait…

Nah, magic is thr chemistry in the brain leading up to “wow magic”. Enchantment. Wonder. Mystery. Horror even. It’s one sided, or it’s a lot closer to an aura, or air, given off. Often the capital-w Wizard won’t see themselves as such. Often the pointy hat is placed on their head by others, not themselves. A time traveller, or an alien, is a veritable wizard.

they only talk shit about it because they lack intuition due to their low level of consciousness and/or intellect. No scientific breakthroughs came from studying data, studying data came AFTER the discoverers intuition told them where to look and what to look for. They know they do not possess and people that do make them seethe uncontrollably because they can never do what what comes to us effortlessly by superior observation and deduction skills. They have spend years experimenting and collating data to verify what we instantly intuited to be the case.
