    It's apparent that you don't have thoughts to convey, just the dogma that your religion allows you.

    The definition of "racist" as "anyone who is white" is itself racist.

    At least that's where the science has led us.

    LOL funny, ain't it?

    The new god is you and me and everything and we aren't even really here.
    Science has proven there is a another relam of reality....a SUPER (superior) Natural (to nature) realm that is responsible (the cause) of the grand effect known as THE PHYSICAL UNIVERSE.

    FYI: Reality can be verified void of observation simply by applying the quantifiable (measurable) effect of any mathematical potential that is demonstrated when that potential is formulated into repeatable and constant formula. Example: The power of the atom.....man can not observe the atom being split, man can only record the potential of that effect that is unobserved (an atomic explosion) Just like we know as a prima facie reality that FUSION can take place that alters the elements of the periodic table...….the observed potential? THE SUN.

    Science has proven that nothing in this reality is "RANDOM"......each and every effect must be the result of a superior CAUSE. The very purpose of applying science is to seek out the CAUSE of the effect under experimentation.

    All superstitious belief is definitionally delusional. Unsurprising people with poor nutrition from gobs of gravy and sopping wet green bean and fried everything
    all of whom watch Fox news all day, then wheel of fortune while Cheeto binging and who join Jebus clubs would all be impaired with that malady.

    Glad to see Myrtle Beach is banning single use grocery bags. The fundies are apoplectic I'm sure. Jebus according to Hannity hates to do what is good.

    It's proof you are.

    Your entire frame of reference for everything is a book of Stone Age fables commissioned for adaptation in 1611 by a barely-literate English King from Scotland.

    Anatta, you really need to chillax because you're contradicting yourself.

    Immutable principles is exactly what dogma is.

    And dogma is rigidity of thought whose adherents are referred to as zealots.

    What a fucking idiot.

    "Immutable" means unchanging over time.

    In other words, rigidity.

    You argue that immutable principles aren't dogmatic when "immutable" literally means unchanging over time.

    What a fucking idiot.

    "Immutable" means unchanging over time.

    In other words, rigidity.
    religious dharma/dogma is immutable - the practice of religion however depend on the sect.

    Conflating dharma with rigidity of thought is stupid. Dharma is immutable as I have said over and over so there is no room for changes - unless some august body of that religion changes the dharma.

    Religious dharma cannot be conflated with rigidity of thought however- rigidity of thought goes to being able to change perspective of incorporate new data.

    So simply saying religious dharma is immutable does not impact on other worldly thinking.
    One can incorporate new ideas into one's perspective on non-religious matters - but still remain faithful to dharma

    You would have to show those who are religious , are also rigid thinker in secular, non-religious matters.
    Nothing in the OP shows that
    I don't know how you were diverted / You were perverted too
    I don't know how you were inverted / No one alerted you

    Wow.

    You've come a long way from saying immutable principles aren't rigidity of thought when one of the synonyms of "immutable" is literally "rigid."

    Practicing a religion that is based in immutable principles.

    I think it's time for you to create another ID now, noise. You seem to have burned through your credibility on this one rather quickly.

    Tell us about the logistics of all those animals on one boat. You know the children’s story. The one where the rainbow was invented.
