You need to get out of your bedroom more often. Mud can dry out, and it forms very distinctive crack patterns when it does.

Sybil is just being Sybil. LOL

Notice how he contributed NOTHING to the conversation. Is it because he's a troll or because he doesn't understand the science?

Carbon-14 is total garbage if you are trying to date something for which carbon-14 cannot be used. Did you say that FOOTPRINTS were dated?

Dear Dummy, the mud would have organic material in it that would be tested. Sheesh!

Good catch on the organic matter in the mud, I missed that idiotic comment. Sybil is obviously nothing but a poorly educated troll.

It's sad to see mentally ill people disrupt threads. Have you asked to have him thread banned? Just DM one of the mods.

That's exactly the implication. A lack of free will means everything we do is purely animalistic. We can still have laws for animals who present a danger to the public, but putting them down or any other animal is no worse than turning off a bright light that is shining in our eyes.

We can still have sophisticated social rules, up to and including fatal consequences. Morals are whatever we say they are and people, because they lack free will, are without morals. We'd only have our basic genetic programming, experiences and social conditioning. Those who fall outside social parameters can be eliminated as a waste time, space and food.

That said, I'm still solidly on the side that we have freedom to choose regardless of how limited that may be. Some more than others due to genetic malformity, mental illness, dementia, TBI, etc.

"Prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him."
James 5:16


Just because I often strongly disagree with many JPP members whom I consider to be demented, suffering from a TBI or otherwise cognitively impaired doesn't mean I don't sympathize with their condition.

Even those who have studied behavioral psychology and experienced a career of observing the length, width and breadth of humanity should agree that not all human behavior can be accounted for as a matter of genetics, social conditioning or any other measurable factors.

Call it the X factor. I call it Free Will just like I use the word "God" as a place marker for the creation of the great unknown.

You're way out of my league when it comes to psychology. (y)

I think we have a hard enough time understanding the psychology of the classical Greeks and ancient Egyptians. The psychology of Paleolithic people 30k years ago is just that much harder to fathom.

Agreed on paleolithic people. The Greeks and Egyptians had extensive writings and artifacts which provide insights to their way of thinking. Paleolithic, i.e. Stone Age, left some tools, figurines, burials and evidence of wine making.
 
So what do we do now? Do we quit eating Rice Squares and stick with Bran flakes? This knowledge seems like it's too important to ignore!

But it's really funny to see self-appointed 'armchair scientists' pontificate about wet mud, and mud supposedly not containing organic matter!

The mental illness on display can be funny. Still, booting his ass out of the thread would be like kicking the kids out of the room so the adults can talk.

Neither do you, so why aren't you banned from every thread you jump into?

It's conjecture at this point, not 'science', and t some point some halfwit will use this speculation to infirm us all they don't believe in Jesus n stuff for no reason. lol

I think it's easy to say on paper that nothing is real except the deterministic motions of protons and electrons.

It's harder to actually live that philosophy out in real life. We all want to believe our girlfriends, partners, and spouses freely chose to love us. We all want to believe that friendship, loyalty, and trust are voluntarily given to us by someone with a free moral agency.

But I cannot definitevly prove strict physical materialism is all there is in this life.

this is that fucking stupid serendipity shit again.

nihilistic ass drooling.

The only ones on the thread intelligently talking about the topic were liberals, so obviously this topic interested us.

You aren't liberals, much less intelligent. It's just some Gee Whiz tabloid article that you hope makes you look smart without actually being smart. Think Gomer and Goober Pyle reading Popular Mechanics.

So you concluded my only interests are pornography and Trump, even though I posted this thread and discussed the topic intelligently with like-minded individuals.

You are an oracle of logical deduction!
