>>"The Bible is re-written every 100 years to accommodate this."

This is provably false.

"It cannot be too strongly asserted that in substance the text of the Bible is certain: Especially is this the case with the New Testament, of early translations from it, and of quotations from it in the oldest writers of the Church, is so large that it is practically certain that the true reading of every doubtful passage is preserved in some one or other of these ancient authorities. This can be said of no other ancient book in the world."[1]

As an example, the New Testament is 25x more accurately copied across manuscripts than the Iliad [2].

"The variant readings about which any doubt remains among textual critics of the New Testament affect no material question of historic fact or of Christian faith and practice."[3]

I found a good articulation of this here: https://www.thepullrequest.com/p/the-holy-church-of-christ-w...

"Suddenly we’ve got numerical infinities on that ethics spreadsheet, inputs that win out against any finite moral optimization. Where to put the infinities on the spreadsheet is of course the entire point of this metaphysical endeavor. We need the axiomatic moral imperatives, whether they be human life or free speech or something else, to which everything else loses in the moral calculus. The rest is mere arithmetic.

And this is precisely where the rationalist worldview grows mute: there’s simply no way to derive the absolute moral principles that should rule our lives from lab experiments, and any such proposal will necessarily require a faith-based leap--the ‘dignity’ of human life, the sanctity of private property, etc.—not very different than the tzelem Elohim or Imago Dei of Genesis. Science is absolutely mute here. There’s no such thing as a ‘scientific ethics’ or a ‘scientific foreign policy’, and the people who claim as much are precisely the same naifs who treat science as a body of knowledge rather than an epistemology, i.e., those who’ve never actually practiced it."

I prefer Camus personally. The act of rebellion against ...well everything, but in this case against things to worship, against stories that try to hide the absurdity of the universe seems to me a narrative much less likely to be led astray in harmful ways, since it gives you no power or secret insight, only personal despair and personal happiness.

"I don't know whether this world has a meaning that transcends it. But I know that I cannot know that meaning and that it is impossible for me just now to know it. What can a meaning outside my condition mean to me? I can understand only in human terms. What I touch, what resists me — that I understand. And these two certainties — my appetite for the absolute and for unity and the impossibility of reducing this world to a rational and reasonable principle — I also know that I cannot reconcile them. What other truth can I admit without lying, without bringing in a hope I lack and which means nothing within the limits of my conditions?"

The core tenet of the law as seen by Christians today is justice tempered with mercy because of love and the the death of Jesus in payment for that mercy. If you break a windows, society is out the cost of that window. Justice demands payment by the breaker are the expense of something else they could do with the money. Mercy is when the window owner takes that debt theirselves. The debtor walks away free, but the owner must now still pay the price.

“The borrower is slave to the lender.”

While modern societies hold this to be untrue in name, it is very true in principle. Countries that owe large debts do what they’re told. Companies do the same. Even on an individual level something like student loans follow you forever. Even sin is referred to as an unrepayable debt to God. To take debt without repaying would be theft.

Even today, direct theft or deprivation of property or life is grounds for enslaving people for decades in something called prisons. You’re only complaint here is about what debts to people and society are punishable by slavery.

It’s also worth noting that debtors prison and indentured servitude existed over a half century after slavery was ended and slavery as punishment is still explicitly allowed under the US constitution.

To reiterate, the slavery presented in the Bible as a means of repaying debt is actually what we’d call indentured servitude. In contrast, slavery as practiced in the US was absolutely indefensible according to the Bible. The Bible proclaimed the slave traders as worthy of death. All the massive abuses would have immediately led to slaves being released and more than a few slave owners being executed. Finally, with all slaves being freed every 40 years making multigenerational slavery impossible (don’t forget that freed slaves were also to be provided with a means to sustain themselves —- the oldest source of “40 acres and a mule“).

Has society actually improved on this point? At most we’ve replaced it by stealing from every individual and giving that to pay the debt of others, but a group buying a slave’s freedom also existed with the difference that the money was to be volunteered rather than taken by threat of force.

The Bible clearly says enslavement without cause is injustice worthy of death. Once debt is accrued, someone must pay. The old law gives justice at all costs (forgot to mention, but slavery was a court matter). Jesus differed in teaching that while justice was fair, mercy and the self sacrifice of forgiving debt was better. By the way, this argument is rather similar to the one given by the original abolitionists who were almost universally fundamentalist Christian sects.

Now, the burden of proof is on you. Prove without religion that slavery is immoral and indentured servitude is unjust.
Yeah but imagine how distressing it is to make them :) Fixed. Thanks for the heads up.
I'm not a church-goer and now in my late thirties have seen many, including myself, have significant crises ending up therapy of some kind. Thankfully, these crises have all had successful and revelationary outcomes. Crises such as financial, relationship, burn-out, questioning purpose, depression. In all cases it's been a revelation for the people involved because they were simply unequipped to deal with the situation; didn't have the tools in their toolkit.

It dawned on me that as a kid I did go to church as part of school, and there I would receive almost daily "counselling", or at least broaching life issues, challenges and philosophical concepts regularly.

When not a church-goer, where does one get this same level of regular counselling, self-improvement or self-analysis? I'm not advocating religion though I feel like the concept of meeting regularly and talking about big issues is very positive, and I feel overlooked.

I don't see it as apathy. I suspect people are simply choosing to put their time into pursuits other than attending meetings with other people.

In the past 20 years, there's been a large rise in the time the average person spends on the social web. In the past 10 years, with the rise of mobile platforms, that time has gone up even more. In addition, streaming media has become very big, thereby consuming even more of our free time.

That additional time spent online has to come from somewhere. As Sherry Turkle put it, we are increasingly choosing to be "Alone Together" probably at the cost of old school forms of togetherness like church and social clubs.
But if they're required to actually spend money upgrading infrastructure (outside of areas with mean income above $500k), they won't be able to make the same kind of obscene profits they do now.

> You have to insert meaning into Jesus's words because otherwise what he's told you is obviously false

Jesus didn't describe the miracle of the loaves and fishes, he was described as having performed it. Even if one accepts the traditional authorship of the Gospels (which even modern Christian scholarship doesn't consistently), Christ isn't the traditional author, just the subject (a small percentage of each of the Gospels is words attributed by the author of the gospel to Christ, but that's not the description of any miracles, though it's often the takeaway message associated with a described miracle.)

> And yet the bible is filled with miracles both in the old and new testament. Miracles that directly contradict the notion that "Oh, they were speaking metaphorically when they said god would do miracles!"

This is really only a contradiction if you assume that nothing in Bible can itself be metaphorical.
Despite the downvotes, I'm still curious about the problem that this solves.
>
It's a question of whether or not you buy into the set of assumptions. If you do, you can avail yourself of any one several strong, coherent, self-consistent philosophies and world-views, which many of history's great minds have reasoned about and scrutinized. Catholicism, Orthodoxy, Protestantism, Judaism, Islam: all of them spend a lot of time on this stuff.

As an atheist, I do not find[1] those philosophies to be particularly coherent or self-consistent - but obviously, my criticism is only superficial. So, I'll do one better.

A large number of theistic philosophers share my opinion on this - hence the innumerable schisms within Abrahamic religions. Those philosophers looked at their religion, found inconsistencies in it, and forked it.

The problem is that the survivors of those schisms (Catholicism, Eastern orthodoxy, Russian orthodoxy, the Anglican church, Protestantism in its many flavours, Sunni Islam, Shiite Islam, etc, etc, etc) did not survive because of their logical or intellectual rigour, or because they were more consistent or coherent then the parent branch that they splintered off from. They survived because they won political, violent power struggles. They survived because might made right. They survived because some influential autocratic warlord was personally swayed by their ideas, and imposed his will on his subjects and neighbours.

Less successful heresies (that, to me have about as good a claim at providing strong, coherent, self-consistent philosophies and world-views as their parent religions) have gone extinct. Not because their arguments or ideas were bad, but because they didn't have enough spear-tips, sword-points, and gun-muzzles behind them.

This sort of selection process does not seem to be like it leads to accurately determining which of these systems survived because they are actually strong, coherent, self-consistent, and which survived because they were better at killing heretics.

[1] My impression of religion is that it tends to identify its inconsistencies and incoherentness, and neatly package it into a black box that it does not engage with, and expects you to have faith. You get a highly self-consistent system, as long as you don't look inside the box.
Some people in this thread have mentioned that ECT is only considered when doctors have "exhausted all alternatives". Does that include the use of psychedelics? I don't know about you, but before electrocuting my brain I might be willing to try a particular mushroom that humanity has been using for thousands of years to alleviate feelings of despair and meaninglessness, and one which has shown serious promise in that regard in several recent studies. It's really too bad most governments saw fit to make it highly illegal.

How much TV do you watch a day? Buying a couple of seasons of TV a month is going to be about the same price as a couple of subscriptions to streaming TV. And theoretically it gets you exactly the TV you want, something which you need 5 subscriptions or so to do right now.

I think consumers would be better off with the Season Pass model than having to subscribe to a bunch of services, but what really kills it is that it doesn't have all TV, or anywhere close. Season Pass isn't horrendously expensive if that's all you have, but it does get expensive on top of Netflix and/or cable.

As for movies, you can rent them from $1 - $5, so a couple of movies per week can also be cheaper than a couple of streaming services.

The protostomes are a monophyletic group, i.e. they include all the descendants of some animal that lived a short time before the beginning of Cambrian, probably around 550 million years ago.

On the other hand the deuterostomes might be or might not be a monophyletic group, it is not known yet with certainty, so it is still possible that the word "deuterostomes" might be invalid, if there exists no such group.

The name "deuterostomes" is used for the ensemble of 2 groups, the chordates (including us) and a group composed of echinoderms and hemichordates (Ambulacralia).

These 2 groups share one character present in their ancestors, the existence of some openings that connect the pharynx with the exterior (e.g. the ears in humans or the gills in fish).

However, there is a chance that this character also existed in the ancestor of the protostomes, but it was then lost, in which case it would not be a proof of a closer relation between chordates and echinoderms+hemichordates.

The ancestor of the protostomes and the ancestor of the chordates both had a rather complex nervous system, while the ancestor of the echinoderms+hemichordates had a much simpler nervous system, similar to that of many of the cnidarians (but even some jellyfish have a more complex nervous system than that).

If it will be proven in the future that in fact the protostomes are more closely related to the chordates than the echinoderms(+hemichordates), then their common ancestor would already have had a complex nervous system.

In this case, the similarities between octopuses and mammals, while still greatly increased by convergent evolution, would be far less surprising, because there would be much more features of the nervous system that would be inherited from the common ancestor.

While there are many genetic similarities between echinoderms+hemichordates and chordates (i.e. us), most of those are also present in cnidarians, so they must be older than the separation between chordates and protostomes. The chordates retained them but the protostomes lost those features, so they are not a definitive proof of relationship.

Which is the closest relative of the chordates is one of the most important questions of the animal phylogeny and there are chances that the answer that was believed true for more than a century is in fact wrong.

The correct answer to that question has consequences mainly for understanding the evolution of the nervous system and for the applicability of some things that we can learn about the brains of protostomes (like the octopuses) to our own brain.
