I think those who BELIEVE in Extraterrestrial life do so because of their partial/complete belief in Evolution.

LOL. True, up until Science disagrees with itself over some years/decades. :p

You reminded me of this book: http://www.thomaslfriedman.com/bookshelf/the-world-is-flat
(A pretty interesting read, specially for IT related guys).

Nobody is claiming to know everything. Presumptions lead to disaster. If you're not willing to listen or understand, why should we waste our time & effort in trying to enlighten you. First, try to open you narrow mind, ask the questions you've never asked before, or are too afraid to ask. Secondly, you still didn't answer my question about the age of the earth. Kindly shed some of your expert opinion on it.

ist of all am i denying anything u say but ur denying everything i say as u said Presumptions lead to disaster ... y ur presuming i m not ready to listen or understand ... ap nay abhe tak kuch bataya he nahe mujay ... har sawal pay keh rahe ho jao khud parho ;p
and what reference should i give to u ... i just have a religious versions which is not allowed to discuss ... n these religious books references also dnt exactly date the age of earth ... its a further human interpretation of that raw information ... But if u insist to ask me i will try my best to not hint any religious thing into it n u also try to read my post just like a reference from any other book ... Can u read it with a neutral mind also ... 'JUST SHOW ME SOME LOVE' ;p
Okay ... No heavenly book categorically says age of man is 6000 yrs its a human interpretation ... bibile gives u timelines of prophets n various other incidents of history which people like us added up n stated bibile says adam came 4000 before bible ... similarly Quran also doesnt say specifically about the age of earth. It says that God made the Earth and the Universe in 6 'Yaums'. Now it depends on the tranlator/interpreter/mufassir what this word YAUM means. It means PERIODS. The period can be days, months, years, centuries, millineums or billion years etc ... So it's choice of interpreter how wana read it ... if u allow me more ... me being an interpreter of quran can even do the maths jugglery n even comeup with 18.6 billions yes age of universe n around 6 billion years age of earth ...
2ndly if u read my posts i am continuously reading with a much open mind these theories but i need some answers to 'ORGANIZE THE DISORDERED INFORMATION FROM MAN N GOD'... so what more u expect me to do ... cant u be nice n address me with patience ...

If you are refering to religion as blind faith and scinece as questioning mind, I completely disagree with you. A religious mind can be a questioning one and not everyone believes in religion on bases of blind faith. The way,generally and unfortunately, religion is taught is "ask no questions" and complete submission without any argument attitude, which in my opinion is opposite to what the aim of a religion should be. It should be able to provide spiritual enlightenment without suppressing other elements.

in my personal opinion ... science n religion can live in perfect harmony provided both have patience for each-other ... if i dnt have patience to listen to my opponents questions how can i answer them ...

waisay this rigid attitude is not at all true representation of any religion i think ... no religion n i mean 'no religion' is as such ... people, a man, who controls those religious positions make portray them as such ... dnt we see an under-qualified teacher banishing students for asking difficult questions ... same is the case with these religious 'THEKEDAARS'
2ndly ... we inherited out respective religions so we dnt know how a religion is preached ... or how some one converts to or from a religion ...
every thing requires an argument to make an impact ... when a man cant accept other man's simple theory without getting any evidence how can a religion be accepted by same man ... even if ur following any religion u have a right to do ur research ... find answers ... dnt confuse our cultural attitude with a religious attitude ... unfortunately this attitude is more pronounced in subcontinent ...

well even our religion tells to look, observe and question so that the realization can dawn on you. i dont think there is anything wrong in questioning or being inquisitive. the way religion is taut in our country i.e. 'no questions asked', 'molvi sahab nay kaha tha', 'kehtay hain' etc is wrong

Who stopped u from asking???
N what exactly were u asking ur molvi???
Yar most people will agree with me that most molviz are those who couldn't become anything else in life n chose teaching religion same like our most school teachers teaching us maths, science n especially geography :)
How many people around us choose teaching or becoming molvi/priest etc as a profession Or dream about it from their childhood??? May it be teaching science or spirituality ... N a typical molvi very much falls in the same category or may be even below them ...

O koi meray sawalon ka b jawab day day ... lol [MENTION=26483]JKhan[/MENTION] [MENTION=22411]kalmati14[/MENTION] n [MENTION=2177]Nauman 360[/MENTION] ...

ist read this ...
Do the unbelievers not realize that the heaven and the earth used to be one solid mass that we exploded into existence? And from water we made all living things. Would they believe?
n just imagine that this statement is more than 1400 yrs old ...

    They could have shipped all these SP sequels on PC as well. But they wanted a piece of the PC market AND the live service market at the same time. I think that turned out a bit too much for them.

    Aside from this, Sony and PS5 could have been great even with sequels to existing games like Ghost of Tsushima, Uncharted, GOW, TLOU, Infamous, LBP/Sackboy, maybe dead ones like Resistance, Jak, etc. It seems that they've been trying to focus on the live service model instead at the cost of SP games and exclusivity. It hasn't worked out well (except for Helldivers 2) and most of this gen is over. I don't see the point of this divergence from their established brand and strategy, especially at the cost of new SP games, few of which will now see the light of day this gen.

  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Sure, big shots like RDR2 and Elden Ring are also great and I love them as much as the next person but at some level, I feel like I can get something close to that in movies and TV. There's something unique about great platformers in terms of stress-free/joyful interactivity and immersion that a heavy story or challenging gameplay doesn't have. Again, the latter is great too but the former more accurately defines gaming for me.

  • SolitarySoldier SolitarySoldier:
    Astro Bot will redeem PS5 for me. Ratchet and Astro Playroom did it as well. I may have a preference for platformers but this kind of pure fun games is what gaming started out as and what remains the most enjoyable part of it for me.

    Yeah, Concord & Suicide Squad were utter failures due to being woke as hell. These western devs keep digging their own graves. They don't get the message that the masses don't want woke nonsense in games (or any other entertainment medium for that matter). Japanese games are less woke than American ones, but they're still not completely woke-free because they mostly target American audience. If you want truly unwoke content, try Chinese & Korean games. Black Myth: Wukong & Steller Blade are two of the biggest hits in gaming recently, and they came from China & Korea respectively. They're all the rage these days & completely free from this woke nonsense. I reckon American studios have no future in gaming unless they change their ways. Asian studios on the other hand are on the path to success. Not only is this great for gamers in general. It is also great for us Asians. :cool:

    Also, it's not just Capcom. Almost all Japanese devs are doing a stellar job and keeping the gaming world alive - FromSoft, Namco, and Nintendo. American/European developers have turned a blind eye to what gamers want and solely focus on squeezing maximum amount from gamers. They suck!
    Link
  • L LegacyGamerGuy:
    I believe Sony America should shut down and converted to Sony Japan. Then we can expect good quality games and not woke propaganda. One of the reasons for failure of Concord as per Reddit comments is woke/gay characters with they/them pronouns. Same is the reason Overwatch 2 has been a failure - they are targeting the wrong target market.
