    If you raise your kids to believe in Allah you are setting up your grandchildren to live like this. Oppose religion, wherever you see it.

      You can’t just equate religion with fascism. Not that I think religion is ethical or even separable from fascism, but they aren’t the same. Plenty of people practice religion without resorting to extremism.

        I don’t think I did. Cancer and heart disease are not the same despite both having very similar results given enough time.

            If I did I am sorry. There is no way I can make a claim like that. If nothing else the world could end long before the process finished. There is a link between the two but it does not mean that a society with monotheism will have to, 100% of the time with no exceptions, eventually become a fascist one.

      Well that’s pretty reductionist, and bigoted. If you’re going to judge Muslims by their extremists then you can’t leave out the Christians and Jews. Hell Jewish extremists in Israel are committing genocide as we speak.

                  Oh God, that’s the laugh I needed.

                  Especially because there’s still 10-20 percent depending on your country. And you’re just falling into the propaganda created by the extremists among them.

            But the Muslim, Christian, and Jewish god is the same deity. So “Allah” refers to the god of all 3 religions.

          Then don’t specifically mention Allah. It’s one of the older propaganda methods. We don’t like the general group but fuck those guys specifically.

          Funny how all the commenter needs to do to clear things up is edit their post. Instead you guys are all trying to make excuses.

        It would be equally as effective as praying to an electron as it is to pray to skydaddy. Also you are very unlikely to send a country back to the dark ages by praising the wave function.

        Fine, I tentatively approve of this religion. You have my blessing. Go with photon my son.

        Did you know that, mathematically, there can be a three-dimensional universe that closes in on itself? If you went in a straight line, you would always end up coming back to the same place.
        Believe in math! Or more specifically, with whoever says they understand math!

          Yeah but not always and besides whose to say that we are requesting the past, or whether we’re really just experiencing an increase in empathy beyond our usual limits? Maybe this is our evolution that we’re experiencing, just like COVID may have been China’s black death…

            What do you mean covid may have been China’s black death? China experienced yersinia pestis back when it was plaguing Europe, so black death was already China’s black death, maybe even before it was Europe’s black death.

          What? There have been hundreds of experiments confirming many different hypotheses of quantum physics…

          The photoelectric effect you have seen nearly every day (have you every used a modern camera with auto-iris? What about solar power?)

          The double-slit experiment proves that subatomic particles can act as both a particle and a wave, which is pretty instrumental in further theories of QM.

          Freedman-Clause verified quantum entagnlement.

          Usage of Nuclear energy for both bombs and generating electrical power…

          Superconductors and Cooper-pairs.

          Even the other poster joking about the Copenhagen interpretation - Copenhagen lead to discoveries in Qubit measurement (read up on Quantum State Tomography).

          Quantum physics isn’t one single, independent theory… And it keeps evolving as our understanding changes.
