That’s a different skill, my hands don’t have to coordination draw from reference.

Attention is a big part for me to remember a thing. I never remember actor faces, even less so — names.
Names are hard for me in general. Unless I see it in chat or use the name for sufficient amount of time, there’s no chance I’ll remember it. That’s one of my problems with movies: I never remember actors or directors, I remember characters and scenario.

I think I’m 1, but there’s no way to know for sure. I find it easier to call out sounds rather than visuals. I can’t “hear” a voice or a sound if I want to. Visuals seem to require more will for the same fidelity.

Yes, a god is unnecessary. However, discussing religion and faith is inseparable from discussing God. Especially when we’re discussing whether it is good, evil or even exist.
My point is more that you cannot argue a god doesn’t exist with logic and Occam’s razor and whatnot when the other side of the discussion doesn’t operate on logic alone. If you’re arguing faith you have to reject it on the same basis, i. e. faith.
My personal belief is that there is no god. Humanity made up religion as tool for control, morality, education, etc. I see no proof that god should exist and on the premise that it could exist (neither claim is provable) I reject it.

TL;DR
I not so much claim God doesn’t exist as I reject it. If God can only be “proven” by faith, then it equaly can be “disproven” the same way.
That’s why I have a different (although, in a very minor way) position.
From experience I see that God would be at best indifferent to people. Given the choice to believe in such God I see no logical reason to do so.
Either it exists and need to jump through hoops to get into heaven (especially if our concept of good is not the same) or it doesn’t exist I loose nothing by not believing. I don’t even want to go to heaven, I want to just live with my loved ones and then die. I hate the concept of eternal life, there is no part of me that would want it.Now looking at christian God I not so much as disprove its existence as reject it. If God can only be believed in then it cannot really be disproven, so the next step for me is just to reject the concept the same way I am required to accept it. If God’s and my human moralities do not align, I do not need such God. Morality, by itself, does not require God or punishment to exist.
Moreover, I don’t want a God that requires belief for a reward. In no way I see it as fair and if God is not fair it’s no god of mine. - Comment on Pow-- 4 weeks ago:
Listen, I get that you’re just trolling, so this is more directed to anyone that can be convinced by your comment.
USSR saved no one. They took over other nations and killed a lot of people in the process. They ripped families apart and took them to their own concentration camps in Siberia. Most of these people were worked to death and died starving.
Before WWII Soviet regime decided that Ukrainians don’t deserve to exist and killed millions in Holodomor (Ukrainian famine).
In history they we’re never saviors, they were just another occupant and an unfortunate ally in WWII. What they brought to my country was repressions and deficits. I guess planned economy doesn’t really work.
The life my parents lived under Soviets was shit and it only improved after we regained independence.
Hero washing USSR only serves as propaganda. They were not heroes, they were winners. It doesn’t make them any better than the other side.

Did USSR help defeat Nazi Germany? Yes. Were USSR just as bad? Oh, most definitely yes.

Fact check me, but isn’t honey just bee vomit? Like it’s a little bit digested nectar, no? So knowing that bees was is not spit or puke equivalent is less gross to me.

From my understanding blue and red shifting is mostly related to movement. Like when a firetruck run past you with sirens on, you can hear change in pitch when compared it moving towards you vs away from you.
It’s a similar effect with galaxies, red shifting means that after the light was emitted the space between us has increased and the light kind of stretched out to longer wave.Now anyone with more knowledge on the subject, please correct me.
