It's called opportunity and it's far better than being a NEET
Yes. It teaches students everything they have to know once they step out of the gates.
CreateDebate seems more like a circlejerk now rather than a place for testing knowledge.
But then again, if CD was limited to serious debates only, then it is most likely that we would end up repeating the same issues over and over.
While I am all for having more blood reserves in the hospital, I will have to say that it is a responsibility too big for the current state of the country.
You cannot just gather blood from the masses.
First and foremost, you must ensure that the blood that you received will be stored in a good shelf. The current amount money that blood banks consumes already racks by millions. Now imagine how much would be spent if every single person would donate blood?
Second, think of the maintenance. Supposedly that the state found a way to gather enough money, you must also remember that it takes a lot of manpower to check every single storage. And that's not all. An average pack of blood has an average shelf life of 2 years, which means that people has to donate blood every year to replace all those that cannot be used anymore, which means that more doctors are needed to accommodate the people. We do not even have enough doctors in hospital, let alone add more in blood banks.
I would love to have more blood in our blood banks, but I don't think that we have enough technology to resolve that, yet
I believe not.
Pointless suffering is pointless. But if you have something you want to achieve in exchange for the pain, it's called "sacrifice"
I do not have the link but if I remember it correctly, the Vatican council decided that yes. Anyone who has a kind spirit and walks on the good path, no matter what belief he follows, can enter Heaven.
What else is the purpose of debate when we believe that our answers are unquestionable?
In order for that situation to work, you will have to say that God cannot foretell the future.
Being warned not to procreate is not the same as being condemned.
No. My point is that, why does he discriminate?
I can understand that it would be a wise choice not to spread a genetic disease. However, if that is his only reason for going against incestous relationships, he must also stand against the relationship between people that carries Alzheimer's, anemia, haemophilia, dementia and so on.
Under that logic, you are also condemning everyone who carries a genetic disease.
Same as with most DC superheroes, Batman is a wish-fulfillment Gary Stu meant to give the audience an image to look up to, and not something that they can relate with.
The scientific formula starts with a "Hypothesis". So technically speaking, it starts with an assumption, then tests it.
We pay taxes for soldiers and policemen to kill, but none of them are evil by trade.
Either a meteor strike or when the sun turned into a red giant.
That's a point. God seems angry and surprised. Maybe the idea of him being all knowing is wrong. Maybe he didn't create them knoing they'd do that after all
It's called justice. You can say that the old testament is ridiculous in terms of right and wrong but the point is, justice can only be administered after the act.
Yes yes, I can decide exactly the future I want as long as it is the same that God chose
Sure, I guess.
I have the freedom to do what God predicted. Nothing else.
You have the freedom to choose your life but you cannot escape his sight. That is all
Tell me which of my points that I have put that are incorrect.
Not much. You just made it seem like life is ruled by a dictator.
9) That statement was disproven by the concept of original sin and fall from Eden. Doesn't mean that he knows what you will do doesn't mean you did not choose to do it.
10) Exactly why I said: "The fact that someone knows your next move does not harm your ability to choose in any way"
Freewill is the freedom to choose, not freedom from being predictable
Life is life. If life is a theater for God, we wont notice it. Thus, freewill and fate can coexist.
Please tell me which point is incorrect.
You got rid of point #9 and #10
9) God is all powerful and all knowing but refuses to intervene with your freedom to choose your own life.
10) God made Heaven and Hell and sent down prophets so that people can choose.
This is an easy problem. Why do you insist on making it complicated?
Establish a better trade, build factories in their cities and hire their citizens for manual labor. Give them a chance to earn their own money and work for you. It's an equal trade that would not only benefit US, but also revolutionize Africa's industry
I've shown very clearly that the choices I would make were predetermined
And I've shown very clearly that the fact that someone knows how you will end up does not harm your ability to choose in anyway.
Its clear that God knew chose some people to be good and some to be bad. I never mentioned authoritarian rule.I never mentioned authoritarian rule.
To believe that God chooses everyone's fate without believing that life is not ruled by a dictator is a contradiction.
God chose everything for me.
Apparently not.
Doesn't mean that God is all-powerful and all-knowing doesn't he is obligated to choose for you everytime. Your idea of a predetermined fate is easily disproven by the fact that a Heaven and Hell exists and prophets are sent down to guide men and civilization itself.
And while at it; God limiting his intervention doesn't equate to abandonment.
Yes it does: If you can live your life without restrain, who cares if someone knows how you will end up?
The flaw in your logic is that you keep on insisting that the world revolves around an authoritarian rule, which is quickly disproven by the existence of the concept of good and evil. Stop trying to explain what you cannot understand. Gods business is to give you a start, you continue the rest. A predetermined ending maybe optional for a select few.
Apparently not. Freewill can work out as long as your choices are not intervened. Doesn't you cannot surprise someone, doesn't mean you did not made your own plan.
Fate refers only to a point in life that you cannot avoid, it is not your whole life dictated. I wouldn't say that God has not foreseen the choices that you will make, but he definitely have no qualms about you using your own freewill.
My answer can be interpreted as a yes.
