Atheist and Satanist are Actually On The Same Side Working Together.

My opponent is totally off subject. Facts are facts. The idea of God is engraved in history. Through religion. However religion is not the subject. My opponent posted! No. During the australopitheciine age, religion wasn't yet introduced. This is alsoo before Christ was born. (NOTE: Some atheists do indeed attack all claims of a monotheistic, christian God (Hence, "Ad Hominem"). However, the usual atheist doesn't. He/She simply openly establish their supposed evidence that they believe either supports their claim or validly follows the conclusion that their claim is true) My last comment is all your argument is babbling on? While you ignore the rest relevant part of my post. I said that to support the fact that Atheist and Satanist are working to be accepted as normal. I refute your argument because this debate is not about religion. Please answer why Atheist want to have church? https://www.google.com... https://www.google.com... have church
Atheist and Satanist are Actually On The Same Side Working Together.

Rebuttals "However I must refute your rebuttal and opening presentation. Totally irrelevant to the subject presented. Please tell me when did I ever say that Satanist and Atheist where the same thing? I did not! You falsely asserted that! I refute your assumption that I am ignorant of the differences between Atheist and Satanist."No! Your assertion is that Atheists and Satanists work on the same side. But, they don't. An atheist doesn't believe in a god/gods until evidence is provided to support the claims, as a Satanist believes there IS a monotheistic, christian god, but doesn't advocate him, but rather completely dissaprove of him."I suggest that you educate yourself on the topic! I said that: the two are working together. And common sense agree's! One thing that Satanist and Atheist have in common is: They both build a case against Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Also both are built on, diverse ideological, philosophical beliefs,"No, no, and no! Although, gladly, you aren't a coward; you place your views in public scrutiny and don't ignore scrutiny/criticism and still claim what you deem true, your arguments are heavily flawed:An atheist doesn't believe in ANY god until evidence is provided to support the claims, as Satanists believe that a monotheistic, christian god exists, but don't advocate him, but rather completely abolish him. Atheists openly establish evidence, in which they believe either supports their claim, or validly follows to a conclusion that their claim is true, as Satanists abolish him; Insulting, etc."Both want to remove God from public society."No! Satanists may, but Atheists don't; They simply don't believe that he exists until evidence is provided to either support their claim, or to validly follow the conclusion that their claim is true."I find it interesting that religion and God has been around forever!"No. During the australopitheciine age, religion wasn't yet introduced.

Also both are built on, diverse ideological, philosophical beliefs, however Satanist do admire and love Satan for defying God. Both want to remove God from public society. Example: Both fund groups to remove God from schools, pledge of allegiance from public events, monuments of the ten commandments, nativity scenes from public places, etc. , and both are working to become equal with mainstream religious majority! I find it interesting that religion and God has been around forever! I personally believe the bible is true. And 99.9 of all religions are wrong about the bible they use to control mankind! So I understand the other side. I personally have no religion, I simply stand on the Word of God! Here is and example of Satanist and Atheist supporting each other. 'Atheists smug as Hindus join Satanists to demand display at Oklahoma Statehouse' Meanwhile, atheists are watching with a degree of glee. . https://www.google.com...

Atheist and Satanist are Actually On The Same Side Working Together.

Both rebuttals and my presentation "Atheist declare there is NO GOD, and we evolved over a long period of time. Why is Atheist a new idea in relationship to mankind!" Satanists actually believe that there is a monotheistic God (Christian God). However, Atheists, on the other hand, declare there is NO GOD WHATSOEVER, thus not advocating Satanism either. They don't even believe that there is Satan."Atheist have just lately advocated for their own monument. I say that is copycat, and wanting to be like God who put churches everywhere! So are Atheist actually serving Satan just like the Christian Church?" What? NO!! Atheists advocate the claim that there is NO GOD WHATSOEVER, thus not believing there is a Satan! Also, you really need to provide evidence that Atheists are really just copying the "Christian God" model and type."If Atheist were correct why is there so many Temples to gods? Why is Atheist the last religion/practice/belief to finally get it together and organize themselves? And just coping religions who think they are serving God?"I apologize, but this argument really made me cringe; THIS IS A FALLACIOUS ARGUMENT! Just because maybe most believe in a Christian (Monotheistic) God, that doesn't mean that their religious belief is a fact! And I will remind/notify you again: THEY AREN'T ORGANIZING THEIR RELIGION FOR THEIR OWN GOD! Like said, they don't believe in a god at all!I await my opponent's next set of arguments.

Stop Google+ Integration with YouTube

Even though the debate is to stop something, my opponent is clearly taking what would be the pro side to this, and therefore I will be arguing that Google+ should stay integrated with YouTube. "Decrease viewers and subscribers" How so? Where is your evidence for this? "bad comment system" What do you mean by 'bad'? What about it is 'bad'? "comment spamming" I fail to see your point here, as the only comment spamming that I have witnessed since the integration of Google+ with YouTube is the "Bob's Army" spam that has only some into existence as a protest against the integration [1]. This isn't inherently the fault of Google, but rather certain peoples resistance to change. "comment links What about the comment links? "infinite characters" I fail to see why this is a bad thing. Infinite characters allows a user to write out their entire comment in its entirety without having to write multiple comments in order to accomplish the same task. This is very beneficial if you are in an informal debate with someone on the site, and require a lot of characters to assert your argument. That is why the limits on this site can go as high as 10,000 characters, as people need that much space to write their full rebuttal. "force G+ account" It's a free account that does no harm to you. All you have to do is take a few minutes of your life to fill out the form and that is all. Nothing bad about that. "and many more issues" Like what? 1. http://www.youtube.com... (The evidence is in the comment section of many of the videos)
The Big Bang, which began Evolution, was caused by a renovation in the west wing of God's Mansion.

*sighs* Pro, Pro, Pro. Have I been with you so long . . . ! And yet you still persist in your materialistic falacies. In the light of your continued and unabetted ignorance, I will make only one more attempt to set your inner Mississippi steamboat in the right direction. (That is, North.) God is outside of time and space. Hence, he cannot have wings (and he can't even eat them unless in human form, I think). God DOESN'T LIVE IN THE UNIVERSE!! Making such an assumption is equivelant to believing that an author lives inside the book he wrote. God lives OUTSIDE of the universe, which is why (even if we someday rule every galaxy) we will never find Our Heavenly Father living in a galaxy far, far, away. Anyway, the universe is expanding by itself. The angels aren't involved. Besides, the universe was actuated at the time of the Big Bang. You can't say God was planning a NEW solar system when the old one hadn't even been invented yet. Okay: If God's West Wing (assuming he even has one, which I have already disproven) exists, then either it existed Before the Big Bang or After the Big Bang. If it existed before, then it wouldn't have been material and as a result couldn't be renovated. If it existed afterwards, it couldn't have caused the Big Bang. Which is why lizards are green and, while constituting 3/5 of Uganda's navy, don't do very well in high seas (or D's, or E's, or even F's. The only letter they actually enjoy is Kk). You have no evidence, while I have Danburry, the greatest philosopher to ever live. I feel so sorry for you (as well as for those poor little neurons you mentioned earlier, not to be condescending). No, when the Higgs Bosun decomposes into a sub-atomic party everything will go crazy and tiny and mass chaos will erupt. This has been scientifically evidenced by the high-seas tale of Bradshaw Blackbeard. When Higgs, his bosun, decomposed, he become most upset as he had been planning on giving him a proper burial at sea, and, as a result, he shrank and finally committed suicide in a glass of rum. Teacher: "Kids,what does the chicken give you?" Student: "Meat!" Teacher: "Very good! Now what does the pig give you?" Student: "Bacon!" Teacher: "Great! And what does the fat cow give you?" Student: "Homework!" By the way, what's fuzzy, green, and could kill you if it feel out of a tree? | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Give up? It's a pool table. Thanks for the debate. I've noticed you have one thing in common with Phil Mickelson: You're consistently under par. Tell your neurons goodbye. It was fun exciting them. And take care of yourself, especially when traversing the vertice between your right second toe and your elbow in teh 5th dimension.
The Big Bang, which began Evolution, was caused by a renovation in the west wing of God's Mansion.

The Pearly Gates are only but a small entrance to God's vast estate. God's Mansion undergoes continuous redshifts by numerous development angels, performing the arduous task of expanding the Universe. During the Big Bang, God requested that his development angels expand the west wing in order to grow for a new solar system around spectral class G2, luminosity class V. Once again, I state, no worries, when the Higgs Boson particle decomposes into a new sub-atomic particle, all will be forgiven, peace and understanding will be the ultimate reward.

It is extraordinary regrettable that Pro's neural synapses were excited. Although I do feel rather sorry for them, as they probably don't get excited very often, living where they do. Pro's comments on mutations are very interesting. Gamma rays are indeed a lethal and dangerous force, and they cannot be stopped without a large bribe constructed of thick nickels. In fact, if you fall into their tank they will likely tear you apart and then eat the tears too. Mutations is derived from the Latin root "mut" "to change," and the Idahoian root "tat" meaning "potato." (The "tion" part is irrelevant as it has something to do with the aquariums the Romans were famous for.) The true meaning is "to change potatoes." As the 4th dimension is time, we would have to wait for very long before that realization Pro is talking about. See, once time gets taken off the tracks it can take a bit of while to get it going again. However, thyme is much quicker. I cannot understand how self-realization could be practiced for millennia. I tried it myself, and no matter how many times I gave it a go I could never traverse between my vertices. Getting from one finger to another was the hardest. I don't know how you do it. Pope Francis may be a great man, although his name doesn't help him out. France is what? Cheesy? Pentogramatic? But he has nothing on Reginald Danburry. I suggest you buy all twelve volumes of his Third Exhaustive, Unabridged, and Unintelligible Dissertation Upon the Heavenly Aspects of Actuality and Potentiality, Leading Logically to a Discussion of the Finer Relevance to Natural Causality. It was dropped by Books No One Still Wants Publishing House (they didn't have enough paper) and is now being published by Beautiful Books for the Boring Blind.

Thank you for your opinion good sir, however I'm having difficulty rebutting that which you and I are unfortunately cognitively incapable of comprehending without greatly increased excitation within the neural synapses contained within the nervous system. Such a great excitation is only achievable from an electrostatic discharge of approximately 30 kA, which very few have been able to survive. There are, however, additional means of understanding truth behind the truth about the big bang theory which has caused so much evolutionary progress. For instance, prolonged cerebral exposure to gamma rays in some case can mutate cells in such a manner that increased level of understanding may be induced, however, if performed incorrectly undesired mutations may be observed. Another method is to briefly suspend the circulatory system to the precise instance that fourth dimension realization has occurred. The method has been utilized and documented for many centuries, but must also be executed with exact precision, or else you will be executing the subject seeking further understanding. The final path to understanding is through self-realization, realization is likely the shortest path between two vertices. Said forms of greater understanding have been practiced by many societies for millenniums. This manner of profound development does not require decades of thoughtful study, seeking the truth simply requires the ability to seek knowledge introspectively and project that knowledge beyond visible light waves. The Higgs Boson particle is the sawdust that remains from the expansion in the West Wing of God's Mansion. Decomposition will someday occur to this amazing particle and all will see the truth that what so many already understand. The stability of Higgs Boson is unknown and the half-life is unable to be measured through carbon dating or through particle acceleration. Finally, I will leave you a link to the words of the great Pope Francis, though I do not follow this great man's spiritual persuasion, he holds immense understanding about that which us mere sheep do not yet fully accept and can not completely comprehend. Reaching for truths that which his predecessors struggled to wholly possess. - Pope Francis speaks about the Big Bang Theory and God.

My opponents second photo was really well done. I especially like the colors displayed and the soft morning light. The filter you applied to your photo was a nice touch, however, there are some areas where the colors seems blown or over exposed. For instance, the sky seems unnaturally brighter than it should be as well as some of the window glares. The overall composition of this photo is very well done, though. Here is the link to my third photo: http://www.debate.org... This next photo was taken in Berrien Springs, Michigan. It is a photo I took of a cow inside a dairy farm. I especially enjoyed the lighting that the ceiling gave off and I took advantage of this. The cows were very easy to shoot and I was able to get one drinking water. In photoshop I boosted the colors and increased the clarity to give it more of a grunge feel.

My opponent's second photo would, I think, be improved by inuding objects --perhaps some greenery-- that show the size of the fungi and how the fungi fits into it's environment. The composition is weighted heavily to the upper left and might be better if focused on the point one-third down one-third in. It is sharp and has fine shadow detail.My next photo was taken in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. Carmel is the upscale town where Clint Eastwwod was once mayor. You can tell they are upscale by the hyphenated name. The photo is supposed to answer the question, "What's it like?" http://www.debate.org...The photo was run through a Photoshop filter to produce the vaguely-European-impressionist effect. It shows my preference for having a lot going on in a scene, so that the viewer takes some time to figure it all out.I think our photos are showing that there is no accounting for taste in photography.

It was much appreciated. As for adding filters to your photos, you may do that if you please. The photo you selected for R1 was very interesting. The photo shows narrative since there are people watching the peacefulness of the garden. The overall photo, though, seems very gray and doesn't seem to have a sense of depth of field. Also, maybe you should try cropping off the sides a little bit. There are some distracting elements. Here is the link to my second photo: . http://www.debate.org... This is a photo of tree mushrooms in a park. It was taken in Ontario, Canada. I achieved this with a macro lens to get the fine details in the mushrooms. The original photo was very flat. In order to fix this I dodged and burned in Photoshop, which made the colors pop out some more and become more noticeable. I also played around with the brightness and contrast.

Wow, another photo smackdown! I can't resist. I hope our photos and discussion will encourage other DDO members to take more photos.I am interpreting Pro's Photoshop[tm] adjustment rule to exclude the insertion or deletion of objects, but allowing virtually any other tweak or modification. For example, a filter that adds texture would be allowed. Pro can clarify if that's not what he had in mind. I'll go with whatever.My opponent's R1 photo is superb. "Adjusting the curve" means making sure the blacks are pure black and the whites are bright. He did that right. An important feature is including the man to give scale to the sculpture. Without that it would to tell from being a closer photo of a smaller object. My opponent not only owns a tripod, but uses it. That's a sign of the top 1% right there.The only tweak I might have tried is to remove some of the perspective distortion, but I'm not sure that would really be an improvement.My photo for this round is posted here; http://www.flickr.com...The picture was taken of the Zen garden at the Ryoan-ji Temple in Kyoto, Japan. The dry style garden is considered one of the best examples of the type. So is it boring or not? One of my objectives is to take photos where here is a lot going on. This photo shows the garden, the season, the gray day, and tourists interacting with the attraction.It's nearly a straight photo, with some enhancement of shadow detail and contrast. I considered cropping it lower, but decided the roof line helped frame the subject.

This is not really a debate. I would just like to show off my photography and look at someone's photography and we will critique each other. Rules: -Each round you will post a photo that you have taken. -The photos can't be changed(such as removing a sign or pole)in post-photo programs. -You can, however, conduct minor Photoshop changes, such as brightness and contrast, levels, and curves, etc. You can also crop. -Each time you post a photo, you would critique the photo I previously posted and I the same. -In the last round we will not post any photos, but talk about our photography skills in general. Here is the link to my first photo: http://www.debate.org... In this photo I took a picture of "The Bean" in Millennium Park Located in Chicago, Illinois. I took the picture against the night sky with a very slow shutter speed and wide aperture, which gave me the starry lights. In Photoshop I adjusted the curves to give it a more "night life" affect.

Thanks to Pro for putting up the challenge. It was a fun discussion, and I enjoyed seeing Pro's photos. He's got a great future ahead in photography.I worry that our discussion was like the commentary in a golf match -- of enormous interest to golf enthusiasts but not so much to anyone else. If so, it suffices to just look at the photos and judge what you like. It's always interesting to hear comments. People often don't like what you think they ought to, and do like what you don't expect. Everyone, however, will like Pro's first photo. I do.I think the theme of being in the right place at the right time, having a camera, and not screwing up comes through. All the photos have some of that. Non-photographers should understand that they have every bit as many fortunate encounters with interesting things; they just don't have pictures of them.

My opponents fourth photo is amazing. The sky and cloud formation is a really good capture. The idea for this landscape is really good and I enjoy it. In this photo, however, I wish there was more sky since the land section is kind of dull. The horizon as you said is in the dead center and don't know what you could have done about that. Also, you should try to boost the colors in the sky just slightly to make it more magnificent. I want to thank my opponent for taking on this debate with me. I really enjoyed your photos. I have taken time to look through your photo blog. We are obviously two different photographers and this can be seen here. You work more with nature and landscape, while my work is more close-ups. I also work a lot with portraits, photographing people, but I couldn't post any of those for various reasons. Overall, I think you are a great photographer and the work you do has a nice aesthetic quality to it.
