Apollo to continue going. That’s it.

Holy cow, I forgot about that extension. That was cool

Saw this notification yesterday when I opened the App. I guess I’m deleting my Reddit account that day. It really is a shame—it was such a good app, and the developer seems like such a chill person.

I opened Apollo yesterday and got the notification it was going to be shutting down on the 30th. It was such a bummer—I really don’t plan on going back to Reddit now. Treat it like Quora, at best.

Logic is used in the court of law and it’s completely reliant on evidence missing to prove innocence.

Hence, “there is zero evidence that the defendant was in the location at the time of the crime which proves their innocence.”

Adding: I mean, the biggest evidence some people have is that something can’t come from nothing. We have no proof of where our something started or came from (for all we know it’s a game of marbles), so their theory is just as valid as anyone else’s until proven otherwise.

There is a huge different between “god doesn’t exist” and “proven there is no need for a god.”

Depending who you ask, there is plenty of evidence. And you don’t even need to ask the Ken Ham’s of the world—there’s literally dedicated fields of study in philosophy arguing this.

The whole “one bad apple spoils the bunch” comes from a series Descartes’ essays trying to figure out if God can be real.

Plus, everyday people have experiences that they interpret as religious events. Coincidence, whatever, that could apply—you can’t, with 100% certainty prove them wrong. You can only assume based off the information you have and your preconceived notions of the world.

Religion is complicated. People’s faith makes it even moreso.

Or would join it like Cartman and Cthulhu.

I agree. Robert Putnam has some great points in “Bowling Alone” in that, we need that socialization—something to bridge the gap. And the human, as an animal, in us needs the socialization just because that’s how we are as a species.

Face to face is key, in my opinion.

I’m on Beehaw and so far it’s been a pretty chill place. They encourage “Be nice” and “safe space” without coming across as in your face with any actual political ideology.

It’d be rad if Christian could somehow migrate the Apollo app over. I know absolutely nothing about that kind of thing so, so idk how doable that is.

r/outside. That place is such a needed mental break.

Ah, this feels… nice. Good to be here!
