Well, for now, the possibility of the existence of living matter not based on carbon is unknown. Silicon is not so active.
Yes, but what bothers me most about "silicon organisms" is not even that, but the fact that silicon oxide is sand: a substance that is not gaseous, unlike carbon dioxide, moreover, it is solid and even insoluble in water! It is completely unclear how silicon organisms should remove this very waste silicon from their bodies. I just don't quite understand how this is related to Imaris's statement, but whatever.
Let's discuss the Fermi paradox instead.
Well, there are basically two options. Either we were really, really, really lucky with our planet (I think that's the case), or no one has been able to travel at superluminal speeds, and all sorts of radio waves and other attributes of civilizations, spreading at sub-light and light speeds, have not yet reached us, because civilizations have reached a sufficient level of development for this relatively recently in cosmic terms. ------
If not, give me counterarguments, in what cases has Christianity really helped people.
The whole world we see now looks this way mainly because of Christianity, as it was a defining factor in the cultural development of all of Europe, which in turn exported its culture to almost the entire rest of the globe.
Well, it has happened many times in European history when politics were masked by religion, that's true. But politics can be masked by anything, and Europeans certainly weren't shy about using any means to achieve their goals. For example, Americans are now masking their politics with democracy, which is also a good approach.
Lords, what do I need to say to make you understand a simple fact: not everyone thinks the same way you do? Some people value money more than science. Some believe that money will save them from death.
Well, of course, there are always more noobs and lolcats than smart people like me. But immortality won't be available to everyone, will it?
One Bible is not enough; there are also scientific works. Have you heard of a science called religious studies?
Pfft, of course. Especially for people like you and Menti, so that God can somehow be scientifically justified.
And here's something else to think about: if Christianity never helps people in any way, then why does it still exist in the world, why are there so many Christians?
Just a bunch of simpletons.
Are you stupid? I'm discussing the topic.
You've been off-topic for a long time; you're somewhere in your clown fantasies
Смысла нет, но вы держитесь там. Удачи, здоровья, хорошего настроения! И пока в кармане пачка милкиуэйев - значит все не так уж плохо на сегодняшний день

Whoever has the money will get it.
Pfft, of course. Especially for people like you and Menti, so that the existence of God can be somehow scientifically justified.
Religious studies do not justify the existence of God. It deals with the study of the development of religions in history, the influence of religion on humanity, the relationship between religion and the world, etc. It is a purely scientific view of religion, not asserting whether there is a God (or gods) or not. And you are confusing religious studies with theology.
Trash talker
That was a good one, I'll put it in my quote collection. Can you argue your point? ^_^
You've been out of the loop for a long time, and you're somewhere in your clown fantasies.
Maybe you should write posts on the topic instead of this?
