@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi "Uhhhh yeah?"

Not in my room - publicly. Outside nature resorts, outside your house, everywhere Churches are currently exempt to do so.

If that's your honest position, you're insane.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi Like I said, where's the line? It's a serious question.

Should I be allowed to blast screamo 24/7 as part of my religion?

Religious freedom has limits.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi "I am living proof right in front of you."

Did I say every Christian behaves this way?

I fully respect Christians/Muslims who keep their faith to themselves. I'm not complaining about them.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi Chill out man.

We're just having a debate, nobody's being raped.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi Cool.

How about if I set up my own atheist church and blast screamo music each hour and claim it's my "religious right"?

Tell me, where's the line?

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi "You decided to comment at me."

You decided to ask the question?

"No one shoved it in your face."

Are you seriously implying Christians don't make it their mission to spread the word of Jesus to non-believers?

Christianity simply wouldn't exist if that were the case.

[Will @xtz39]

@StonerEri @gzgz73959188567 @athiestboi "you brought up the headache"

Quote me, where did I mention headaches?

I said nature is where I go for peace and quiet, which is hardly unreasonable.

No religion should be entitled to blast noise at 100 decibels near nature resorts.

[Will @xtz39]

@StonerEri @gzgz73959188567 @athiestboi "You can’t decide how they sound either."

Okay cool. I take it your fine listening to daily Islamic call to prayer then.

I'm sure Muslims consider that to be "harmonious with nature" too.

[Will @xtz39]

@StonerEri @gzgz73959188567 @athiestboi "Is it exhausting being an atheist who talks about God 24/7?"

As as an atheist who talks about religion frequently, I answered the questions with "yes".

We shouldn't NEED to talk about it at all - but again, you shove it on society.

[Will @xtz39]

@StonerEri @gzgz73959188567 @athiestboi No, they don't "sing harmoniously with nature", and you don't get to decide that for me.

I find they drown out nature, they drown out the peaceful sound of birds, and they disturb peace and quiet.

I walk for a feeling of tranquility, not to listen to your bullshit religion.

[Will @xtz39]

@StonerEri @gzgz73959188567 @athiestboi No, I didn't start the conversation, the conversation is just complaining about people such as myself.

This has literally nothing to do with "headaches". It's about the people's right to not have religion shoved in their faces.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi And not that you care, but I have mental health problems, including misophonia.

Listening to nature is how I cope with that. Church bells ringing loudly for a full hour limit when I can find that relief.

So no, it doesn't affect me as much as rape, but it does affect me.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi People shouldn't HAVE to put up with it.

"Just ignore it" is turning a blind eye to inappropriate behaviour. Nobody should be knocking on your door trying to convert your faith, period.

I respect your right to believe what you want, but it shouldn't be shoved in my face daily.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi "ignore those people lmao"

I do my best. Noise cancelling headphones to drown out the church bells, and going out of my way to avoid religious lunies who think they're entitled to spread the word of Jesus.

How often do people knock on your door trying to sell you atheism?

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi I don't care if you believe me, I'm simply explaining that it's not self-inflicted.

I can tell you precisely where: Lymm Dam

It's a beautiful lake with a church close by, not far from where I live. And yes, it's a VERY frequent occurrence. Especially Thursdays around 8-9pm.

[Will @xtz39]

@gzgz73959188567 @StonerEri @athiestboi I try to go for a quiet walk through nature, instead loud church bells ring incessantly for an entire hour and I get heckled by preachers asking if I'll hear the gospel of Jesus.

I get home, people knock on my door trying to sell me Christianity yet again.

Yes, it's exhausting.

[Will @xtz39]

@Clearpath__ You're the one "assuming". I'm simply pointing out that you're viewing these concepts with a very human bias.

A multiverse + survivorship bias better explains why OUR universe appears fine-tuned.

HOW that multiverse came to be is a mystery, but you've yet to prove it's "magic".

[Will @xtz39]

@Clearpath__ That's the point. Infinite noise is *guaranteed* to eventually produce a sequence that appears unnoisy (an emergent simulation for example).

We simply don't know, and I don't pretend to - unlike preachers boldly screaming "JESUS CREATED EVERYTHING".

[Will @xtz39]

@Clearpath__ I didn't say the universe IS the Mandelbrot set, I said it demonstrates emergent localized rules which would LOOK fine-tuned to someone zoomed in.

In a universe where "nothing" isn't the default state you imagine it is, how do you know how "Infinity" could manifest itself?
