We might make it. A huge die off in the transition is what I’m talking about as well.
I like Kurzweil too. He’s fun but he gets really carried away. From what you’re saying you and I both think it’s going to be a rockier path than Ray.

Atheism is one thing, the rejection of the god claim. Anything else is on the individual. Your misrepresentations are funny

ok yeah - I meant “some” atheists
The way you scratch and claw for tiny little holes to poke at is the funny thing
and then Chula pulled the same maneuver on you and you’re off on that bit of pointless minutiae
