What do we think is the definition of "far universe"?

Are we aware that mars and several planetary moons are considered potential hosts of life? Is that near enough for we? Are we aware that exoplanets are now known to be commonplace, massively abundant? That there are many planetary systems all around we?

Top Ten Reasons why Religion Is Bullshit [View all] Warren Stupidity May 2015 OP

While I agree with all of it, why didn't you place it in the atheist section? Hoppy May 2015 #1

Timing is everything. Oh - by the way this is not a news forum. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #8

That explains the recycling of shallow, tired talking points. rug May 2015 #9

I know, right. You would think the faithful would wise up already. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #15

No, I think the faithful on this thread need the constant reassurance. rug May 2015 #16

Yes, Warren, we need to come up with a catchy new meme like 'Gnu Christians'. beam me up scottie May 2015 #11

It was a belittling "we" AlbertCat May 2015 #48

Based on the replies, it looks like I was right. "You", plural, are miffed. rug May 2015 #56

but you said "we" not "you" rug. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #60

Please keep up. You, of all people, should know who is prone to type "we" in a stentorian manner. rug May 2015 #61

no really rug if you meant somebody else you would have said "you". Warren Stupidity May 2015 #64

I do, although I occasionally make an exception when I respond to one of you (plural). rug May 2015 #67

I agree that use of the first person plural is idiotic, and as I suspect you are not an idiot Warren Stupidity May 2015 #68

As long as you don't think edhopper May 2015 #42

I think that atheism, like theism, guillaumeb May 2015 #43

wait, that was subtle? Warren Stupidity May 2015 #45

subtle when compared to the crudity of the original post. eom guillaumeb May 2015 #58

That rebuttal seems to be missing the part that rebuts. gcomeau May 2015 #51

It does not. It was not intended to rebut the original post. guillaumeb May 2015 #59

Is that why you called it a rebuttal? Because it's *not* intended as a rebuttal? -eom gcomeau May 2015 #73

LOL, I wanted to ask about that too. n/t trotsky May 2015 #74

My use of the word "subtle" was intended to be ironic. guillaumeb May 2015 #75

so it was a unsubtle non-rebuttal. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #79

I assumed exactly that. guillaumeb May 2015 #82

Ok, so just so we're clear... gcomeau May 2015 #83

My original Post, #27, was intended to parody the original Post. guillaumeb May 2015 #84

Parody's generally have a purpose. gcomeau May 2015 #85

is the existence of life random chance? DeadEyeDyck May 2015 #52

It is rather likely that life is abundant in the universe. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #53

Unless you think the far universe is materially different from the near universe, it isn't. rug May 2015 #62

I'm sure we think we have made a brilliant point but we haven't. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #65

i don't know about we, but one of us has. rug May 2015 #66

We've failed to define "it" in that screed. Not very coherent of we. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #70

That sounds rather hopeful. rug May 2015 #71

simply the existence of matter was just a minor fluke. DeadEyeDyck May 2015 #72

The fluctuations that result in non-uniformity are not a fluke - they are expected. Warren Stupidity May 2015 #80
