mircea_popescu: holy shit this is a brilliant idea
danielpbarron: jborkl: the Jesus Christ of the Bible (see: http://atruechurch.info/ )
jborkl: what God is the correct one, I need to make sure to pick correctly- kinda important.
danielpbarron: often enough to know that most catholics don't even believe their own false dogma, let alone the real Gospel
tg2: I married a catholic and didn't get married in a church, does that make me OK?
the20year2: how often do you talk to them about catholicism?
tg2: none, they are all hethens
the20year2: I'm curious, how many catholics do you personally know and talk to daniel?
danielpbarron: I hope he repents of course; it's not too late
tg2: somebody ask assbot what he thinks on the matter
danielpbarron: Luke-Jr is on his way to hell; catholicism is a false religion
the20year2: You were talking about it yesterday
the20year2: mircea_popescu: you've paid attention to this whole HFT thing, right?
danielpbarron: but that is not inherent in His role as master
mircea_popescu: luke's like gonna read this log and fall over.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron well so there you go, your master can make you make a choice. qed.
tg2: where was it assumed that god can cause the choice to be made?
danielpbarron: to Jesus and to the United States of America Corporation
rithm: does god exist everywhere or not. I mean this whole omnipresence thing just makes me think I'm god.....
truffles: danielpbarron id agree with that
tg2: so that he could judge him
mircea_popescu: like that it works.
danielpbarron: a master can make a slave WISH he made a certain choice; God can literally cause the choice to be made
mike_c: no, you are not saying it makes sense. but you are saying that it would make sense if we were god's slaves. there may be other explanations, but that is one possibility that makes sense. i'm pretty sure you said that.
mircea_popescu: danielpbarron tell that to the slave.
danielpbarron: the master cannot neccessarily cause the slave to make choices; God can
rithm: oic this is your fanciful game, not theirs
truffles: well i think i brought up the religion thing
mircea_popescu: rithm because i am evil and they are easily tempted.
rithm: why the fuck.
rithm: r u guys talking about christianity
mircea_popescu: mike_c im not saying it makes sense, i'm merely saying thaty your proposed explanation of why it wouldn't make sense is a description of what you didn't understand of it and nothing more.
mike_c: ok. so you are saying that chapter in genesis makes sense if we are god's slaves. i can accept that.
rithm: or the romanian belongs to someone
tg2: is too heavily written
the20year2: all the words look funny
the20year2: what silly language is that in?
mircea_popescu: tg2 http://trilema.com/2010/test-de-cultura-vizuala-8/ there, just for you.
truffles: Someone made the discussion about themself, why he is like God to his slave because he locks her up etc..
tg2: and then, unto his followers, he said, "scroll, and all shall become clear".
mircea_popescu: it's not accessible from their frame.
the20year2: and tank girls?
mircea_popescu: ok. ascribing a purpose to my actions is what frustrates the slavegirls, too.
tg2: too lazy to scroll up, what are we arguing about
mike_c: i am aware there is a distinction.
mircea_popescu: mike_c you familiar with the cause/purpose distinction ?
SatoshiJack: I believe the Son of God rocks for sure -- No one could kick Hercules's ass !
the20year2: For those of you that live in europe, what does home insurance run?
mike_c: but you do those things for a reason. so unless god had a reason, the parallel is not there. i can not imagine what you are saying god's reason is.
tg2: ITT god trolls #bitocin-assets
truffles: u dont know her thoughts at all times for 1
mircea_popescu: well... it can't be that.
mircea_popescu: i am saying that what you propose about god is within my own personal experience, and in the experience of people i know. this has factually happened.
the20year2: A local landlord here hired a liquidation company for a few of her properties, in the end she got way more than I would have ever predicted
mircea_popescu: i am not saying that.
mike_c: well, then you are saying the slave is doing something useful. what are we doing that is useful for god?
truffles: mike_c i dont think God needs to do that, thats what ppl like mp are for
mircea_popescu: mike_c you ascribe tho. slavery is not necessarily or even much about power tripping.
the20year2: I've already contacted a liquidation specialist, and our corp atty to see what needs to be done, granted in real estate I've done it before plenty of times. That way if i was to get run over by a bus, die from too much blow, ect there'd be an automatic liquidation process that would go through
mike_c: so god is just fucking with us so he can play out a power trip. hm.
mircea_popescu: the20year2 just make sure it doesn't turn into a novel way to "sorry lost all the coins".
the20year2: I posted on BTCtalk, but i'm thinking in light of what's going on with N&B and danny that we (RS) elect a special POA in case I disappear
mircea_popescu: truffles not more than you can fly at any time.
mircea_popescu: that flows from the role definition, not much argument even.
truffles: she can stab u at any time
mircea_popescu: but in the context of a slavegirl and her universe, the master is both.
mircea_popescu: mike_c you're familiar with frame of reference. it can readily be argued that in that context, i am actually both.
danielpbarron: you are saying what Christ should have done; who are you to reply against God?
the20year2: Just quoting it from the book
danielpbarron: the20year2: you are adding to the word; you don't know what God should or shouldn't have done
mike_c: mircea_popescu: yes, humans (not omnipotent, not omniscient) do things like this.
benkay: you too!
the20year2: He told them to come to him who are weary, burdened, ect so they could believe in Him, so they could be changed. If it wasn't a choice ,Christ would have never said ' come to me', he would have just done it to those whom he was speaking to.
truffles: whatd did she do that she didnt already do that caused banishment??
danielpbarron: mike_c: we don't know that someone told Eve she was naked
mike_c: 1) He made eve eat the apple. 2) He knew who told eve she was nekked. 3) He had a conversation about it with her anyway, already knowing the answers, the outcome of the conversation, and everything that would happen before and after.
danielpbarron: the20year2: no, He doesn't say why He asked that question
mircea_popescu: much to [noob] slavegirl frustration.
jborkl: mircea, is -pr still banished from the forum?
mircea_popescu: <mike_c> he's just asking random questions for no reason because he already knew and he made eve do it anyway? << i actually do this.
mike_c: DON'T YOU SEE THIS MAKES NO SENSE.
the20year2: If choice doesn't exist, then why does Christ say "Come to me all who are weary"
mike_c: oh geez. biblical determinism. then why did god ask who told they were nekked??
danielpbarron: that doesn't mean man choose to make the offering, God caused the choice
mircea_popescu: i guess kansas counts as southern for this purpose.
danielpbarron: the Bible mentions "free will offerings" which are animal sacrifices that do not coresond to a sin having been committed
truffles: not at this moment
danielpbarron: show me, truffles
truffles: in some english translation its there
danielpbarron: truffles: that is not true; the concept of "free will" has no Biblical foundation
mircea_popescu: apparently their office is abandoned, employees unpaid went home.
truffles: for a believer danielpbarron has a weird view of things
the20year2: truffles: that's the gist of the story
truffles: acutally eating that apple was the beginning most likely
the20year2: i saw that mircea_popescu. I was curious if anyone had actually stopped by their offices in Cyprus?
truffles: <danielpbarron> He's an all powerful God; if He didn't cause evil (and evil exists) then He is not all powerful >>>> my understanding was God made His creations and left them to freewill which amounted to this widespread evil
mircea_popescu: the20year2 there was some article earlier, apparently they're bein investigated for fraud by cyprus police now.
jborkl: well now that is gross, you know what is on the floor?
mircea_popescu: jborkl i think that's a fetish.
jborkl: she needs to wash her nasty feet
