Human beings are organic robots.
If you believe your soul comes from somewhere, understand that the millisecond-by-millisecond chemical make-up of your brain can wildly deviate the initial personality.

Scott Adams actually takes it completely down the fate route, not recognizing that Emergent Order is the only way such complex systems can operate, which can’t be predicted.

Re: Time is Racist
Your soul is just the animation of your body. Humans are essentially organic robots, running on evolutionary behavior and hormones. Your mind provides you with some freedom of action within those constraints, but not as much as many imagine.

StA ain't so bad when he isn't commenting on topics that he isn't so emotionally invested in, he can be insightful on occasion, like in the post above, just not when an emotional connection to a topic turns him into a SIFCLF.

Just look how history repeats itself: individuals may vary dramatically but statistically, evolutionary pressures bring humans back to the mean.Speaker to Animals wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 7:06 pmYour soul is just the animation of your body.

The Enlightenment, personal autonomy, liberty, actually deviated from the norm, but notice how modern politics are overwhelming this fleeting aberration.

Re: Time is Racist
The core of Marxism: from those according to their ability, to those according to their need; is actually many 1000s of years old; it even appears in The New Testament. The crux is to reverse control from the Winners to the Losers. Eventually Winners climb back into control, then the process repeats itself.
