Being evil proves you`re not a brain

Don't you believe the world is flat?

​

Not only flat but stationary with a sun, moon and stars moving above the earth to give light to the earth.

Wow...

 

[Chesterton]

Chesterton sounds like an idiot. The doctrine involves having sin because of something done long ago and not in the paper. No crime, no matter how awful, reported in the paper is "original sin".

People who are not idiots have the ability to recognize humor, and your error is compounded by the fact that I put a smiley face at the end of the sentence to indicate that it's supposed to be humor. Huge swing and miss, but thanks for playing.

The lack of basic biological knowledge in this thread should be astounding.

It is. Nothing in this thread has to do with the topical area it is posted in.

But here we are.

And I am out of here.

 

[Herman Hedning]

The heart, or center, of a human being is what controls all the rest of the human being. If the heart stops feeding blood to the rest, the rest will die. The brain is something that allows us to distinguish one thing from another. But the brain needs the heart in order to survive. Everything therefore relies on the heart.
The only one who can change the heart is God.

And by the same token...

The stomach, or center, of a human being is what controls all the rest of the human being. If the stomach stops digesting food for the rest, the rest will die. The brain is something that allows us to distinguish one thing from another. But the brain needs the stomach in order to survive. Everything therefore relies on the stomach.

And the same argument can be made for most organs.

There's an exit? No one told me there was an exit!

And the same argument can be made for most organs.

I'd like to see your reasoning for fingernails. Some people say they cannot see the point of fingernails, but that is because they are not filing them correctly.

 

[Jipsah]

the soul is actually the brain-stem,

And all this time I thought it was actually the gizzard.

and the brain is for something else entirely

Ballast?

Chesterton sounds like an idiot.

Far from it.

The doctrine involves having sin because of something done long ago and not in the paper.

Context would have helped, but the net effect is that we're all inclined to do Bad Things, an idea that appears to me to be irrefutable.

No crime, no matter how awful, reported in the paper is "original sin".

Symptoms thereof. And the gist of what Chesterton was saying is that the human tendency to Do Bad Things is inherent in all of us. Call it what you will, the fact seems to me undeniable.

 

[Jipsah]

And for once we are in complete agreement.
