What a Truly weak claim to make; ' Some matter in the human head is what 'we' call 'intent' '.

Who cares what some people only call some thing? Do you have any proof that lol 'some matter', only within the human head, 'has intent' or not?

If you do not, then, again, who cares what just 'some of you' 'call intent'?

Also, of course, if 'some of you' call 'some matter, in the human head, 'intent', then obviously I could never prove otherwise. Oh, and by the way, I would never have even considered to, let alone wanted to.

Which means if you want to 'call some thing' by one or another name/s, then by all means 'just do it'.

Furthermore, how you are 'trying to' deflect, and twist and distort things around here, once again, is not going unnoticed, at all.



And this is a PRIME example of WHY these adult human beings took so, so long to 'move forward'.

1. I have never said absolutely anything like this, and this is proved True from what I have actually said and written in this forum.

2. If you cannot distinguish 'matter', itself, then so be it.


Once again, this one is completely and utterly LOST in regards to what I have said and claimed not just in this thread but also throughout this whole forum.

Who claims that they are a so-called "nondualist" here "atla"?

Lest 'us' 'see' if you will, at least, answer and clarify this question?

The evidence we have shows that only some organisms exhibit behaviours, that we associate with intent. So intent is probably certain configurations of certain matter, found in some organisms but not found in other things like rocks.

Did I really have to type that down? Again, the idea that the whole universe has intent is one of the oldest ideas in the book, and many of us have pondered it including me, are you really so stupid and clueless again that you didn't know that?

But you have to prove it, which you just said you are incapable of. Therefore I've still every reason to view you as just a delusional liar, nothing more. Why don't you try harder for once?

you, once again, "atla" have attempted to twist and distort things around here, again because you could not refute anything I actual said, wrote, and meant here. See, what you did here "atla" was to say and write the sentences, 'Unless you can prove that all matter in the universe has intent. Good luck.'

Which had absolutely nothing at all whatsoever to do with absolutely anything that I said nor wrote here.

So, all you are doing here is just trying to deflect, once again, and in doing so trying to deceive the readers here, once more.

Even in this reply you go on and on about 'intent', which, again, was absolutely nothing that I was talking about at all.

you even, so stupidly, made the remark and comment that I claim I was incapable of proving 'it', which is absolutely False, Wrong, and Incorrect, as well. The amount of times you try to deflect and deceive the readers, the way you have deceive "yourself" is Truly amazing "atla". you speak and write here as though the readers cannot think nor see for "themselves".

Again zero proof for anything. Not terribly unexpexted though.

No. you are absolutely free to think and do absolutely any thing of your choosing.

Also, why are you so held up in and with 'intent' here?

Obviously, I never used that word in the opening post here. And, just as obvious you introduced the 'intent' word as a so-called 'red herring' to try to deflect away from the irrefutable fact that you did not counter nor refute absolutely anything that I actually said, wrote, and meant here.

Which, by the way, is a very strong signal that you cannot even counter nor refute, once again, anything that I have actually said, wrote, and meant here.

Atla wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 4:06 pm It's just infinite luck?

Once again, you make a statement and claim, but with a question mark at the end of it.

Which, by the way, is a signal of one's beliefs and/or presumptions.

Also, and by the way, since it was you alone "atla" who introduced the 'intent' word here, and you alone who seems to be solely focused on the 'intent' word here, let 'us' remind the readers that it is you "atla" who has still not yet answered and clarified, among many others the question, 'Do you want to claim that there are some physical things that 'have intent'?'

So, until you are OPEN and Honest here and just answer and clarify this question, then any talk of 'intent' remains with you alone.

Atla wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2024 4:06 pm You're acting even stupider than usual.

And that you have failed, once again, to actually refute or counter any of what I have provided here just shows what you are, exactly.

No I was not. And, this can be clearly seen and proved True by the actual words that I have used and presented here.

Also, do not forget that what you presume another is talking about can be absolutely False and Wrong.

I will, once again, suggest to you "atla" to only read the actual words that I use here, and do not presume absolutely any thing at all. That way you will not be so Wrong, as often as you have so far been.

you have a common habit of introducing your own presumptions of what the other is talking about, even when the other has never been talking about what you say and claim they have. This thread is another prime example of you doing this here.

Now, not that you ever will but would you like to explain to the readers here why the so-called 'my creation' and 'my evolution' has, supposedly, nothing at all to do with 'creation' and with 'evolution', themselves?

In fact, would you have the courage to even begin to tell the readers here what the actual 'creation' and actual 'evolution' is, exactly?

Lol "atla", when and where, exactly, have I ever used, supposed, 'deceptive words' for anything at all?

Also, 'evolution' nor 'creation' are never just called, in any language, 'cause and effect, causality'. Unless, of course, you have some written proof, or sound recorded proof, of and for this somewhere.

Furthermore, that the Universe, Itself, is one Thing that is creating Itself, through and by evolution, itself, continually-always is something that you just do not like to admit and accept. And, especially more so because it was 'I' who said and wrote this.

Okay, fair enough.

This might be another sign of how when people assume things, and when asked for specific clarification and they actually 'think about it', then what they were assuming may not well be, exactly, what is True and Right.

We will just have to wait, to see.
