TBh, Woppit’s comment on the architecture thread just made him look a bit of a Silly Billy really. I think it was just ‘ooh look other people are enjoying themselves and I’m feeling left out I know I’ll go and be nasty’.
I met a particularly obnoxious forumite at a MX race meeting once. We were both racing. There was the opportunity to do him considerable damage. Which had crossed my mind.
He met me before the start and presented me with a bag of chocolate buttons.
I’m having a night in. I found the religion threads interesting.. why sunsets are beautiful is a good q. Carl sagan suggested that man was ‘the matter of the universe, contemplating itself’. But science is a religion in the eyes of some. Simply thinking clearly is good enough for me.
I mean, we don’t need to find them beautiful, do we? Serves no ‘purpose’ for us to take pleasure in enjoying a natural phenomenon, surely?
A genetic predisposition to vivid colours might serve a purpose, it may just be that we don’t know what that purpose is (or maybe it is known, but just not by the people on this forum), or it might be like male nipples and just a by product of something else.
Enjoying natural phenomenon serves a purpose among those who enjoy them – we question the meaning of it and it leads to further understanding. Perhaps leading what some would call enlightenment, of some kind.
I still find it funny that Woppit can so viciously put down other peoples’ illogical and baseless beliefs but at the same time believes the stupid hifi claims about interconnects, speaker cabling and so on 😀
Probably but I’ll bet he does it in a particular way that makes it sound fundamentally better. Probably has to tie their hands the right way to to avoid induction interference or something.
Thanks Chewkw; I might have a watch of that later, or download it actually.
I just hope that all those who have watched the programme don’t go around demanding her to be burnt alive or beheaded, simply because her evidence actually damned the notion of one god or creator god.
