Why Prayers Aren't Answered.

It's a big improv!!! I figure the script is set, we jus can improvise as it goes. I don't know that I believe in time travel, I figure God knows how we will probably behave, he just hopes we'll do better all the same.

Its not difficult to isolate behaviorla patterns in people.

Nope, that it is not 😉 That's why I agree with the behavior analytic approach in psychology. Plus we're the second closest branch of psychology to the hard sciences 😄

No it's not............it's all brain biological chemistry and predetermined patterned, genetics, and cognitive thinking, but there is more.............ya think maybe???. *peeking to see who is looking out of the box*

😱 cognitive *shudders*

with you on everything up to the cognitive thinking 😉 research out behavioral psychology, ignoring references to cognitive-behavioral (that's just a term to make us behavioral folk look a little nicer at cognitive psychology.)

He he.......cognitive thinking is only programing to what we've been exposed to or conditioned to over and over again that can be changed...........

I didn't know your box was inside of mine 😱

I keep telling you, I don't have a box........ 😎

But I've peeked in yours.......It needs a little work in there........kinda slobby....lol

It's also very unnecessary to speak in terms of cognitive thought. It's just an internal bi product that is a result of the brain responding to various stimuli, and may not happen in nearly the same way in any two given individuals.

who said we were created?

Agreed, No one knows if we were actually created or evolved. Saying that you know the answer to that is like me saying I know what is the true religion of man. No one knows these things...

...but facts certainly point in only one direction.

Correct but there isn't any set facts apon the evolution or creation of man. It's still beliefs. beliefs are not facts.

You must not read much science papers. There are lots of facts.

Yeah well "science" papers have also once said "Ciggerettes Are Good For You!" back before my time, and now "Science" papers are saying ciggerettes are bad for you. Seems to me that the statements are on opposite sides, or am I missing something? 😑

Yes, science has been wrong in the past, and may be wrong now. But to say that all science is bad, because of a few bad apples, is like saying that all Christian Churches are cults because of one or two that were cults in the past, and some still are.

Yes. First of all, I'd like to see such scientific published papers. 🙂

Secondly... evolution is a fact. Natural selection is one of the most supported and well documented theories ever in science. No belief necessary.
