Doesn't mean anything since Christianity is nothing more than a Jewish cult created to undermine the Roman Empire.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_Christian#Jewish_origin_of_Christianity

You weren't allowed to be a Christian for the first 150 years unless you were born into a family with Jewish roots.

The bible is nothing more that Jewish lies and propaganda.

The reason a great portion of humanity follows Catholicism or Christianity is because those two are the most moral of any of the other religions and provides the best explanation as to humankind's purpose and origins.

That's no longer true, unless you live in some shithole like the US.

Christianity, and religion altogether, are on their way out in many countries.

In my province for example, 60% of the populace are atheist/agnostic/deist/humanist, and it's been increasing by 10-15% every decade since the 1960s.

Humanity is 5-10 years away from introducing therapies and drugs to double human life-spans to around 150+ years, and it will be the beginning of recursive improvement in life-extension technology--we'll be essentially immortal.

I will maintain a healthy amount of skepticism and assume we are still a couple hundred years behind reaching that point.

I mean, people in the 70s said with a very serious face that we were very close to flying cars by the 90s and sentient machines by 2k. I still keep the "yearly science book" my grandpa used to buy somewhere.

I'm also incredibly skeptical of a 5-10 year promise for miraculous drugs, but I suspect that a reasonable increase in lifespan might be possible even in this century, but probably through gradual increase in medical capability/availability and other improvements through new knowledge, like proper eating habits and such.

>people in the 70s said with a very serious face that we were very close to flying cars by the 90s and sentient machines by 2k
I don't think anyone ever said that, and even if someone did they were most likely not experts in their fields. People who know their shit are always more careful, reasonable and wise, and generally try to avoid making predictions, especially miraculous ones happening in a short timeframe.

Those people were your blue-collar working-class grandparents repeating the garbage they were being told on the evening news show.

Try watching the video I posted. This stuff is actual research, by actual scientists, with actual results.

Also, we're a decade away from having human-level intelligence on large-scale supercomputers, through human-brain simulation to start with. What's required is exascale computing. The Human Brain Project should have their software techniques for cat level brains worked out by 2015, and then it's just a matter of scaling things up.

It has been proven that secret government organizations (why not throw in a little /x/ while we're at it?) keep the public around 50-60 years behind of actual technology.

Cars that run on water? We had these back in the 60s. The only reason they're not out is because it would kill the oil cartels. The majority of the reasons we are being held back is for money.

Prototype. This is a haunting word. It means that the product is not even close to completion, and is only capable of a shadow of what it promises to do.

I guess you weren't around the time.

Robotics used to be hyped real hard from the 80s-90s. As in really, really hyped. Despite considerable funding, researches could only create moderate clumsy robots, which were in no way useful for the tasks the investors had in mind, after the bubble broke, the whole thing went to Hell.

Yes, it's a prototype. It's currently in early-stage animal trials. It works, but there are some problems, but they are solvable.

The reason robotics failed was because it was too early. The computing power and power systems just weren't there. The industry has advanced considerably since then. Investors are skeptical, yes, but that doesn't mean it's still centuries away.

Beware of TED. There's this atmosphere of inexperience to it.

As an example, I was watching a lot of people there discussing various things related to space exploration, things that sound smart. But they're actually all so naive and they don't seem to grasp the actual inner workings of the space industry or even spaceflight itself. There's a HUGE contrast between the stuff on TED and those hour long talks with ~500 views on youtube held by ex-NASA administrators and experienced engineers. It might be good entry-level information, but I don't really take what is said on TED as something representative of whatever they're trying to promote anymore.

And hey, Gauss has barely 80 years since he did his work. The people I am talking about did their research when knowledge wasn't as readily available or even had the tools. They were the precursors, and it is because of them that the basics of science were set.

The catholic church became a menace to society and science as whole when it banned any sort f questioning, specially religious dogma, to the point of banning the bible itself, but they were not the source of this stagnation.

People stopped taking baths because they believed what the greek masters wrote, thus the common peasant was a mess of diseases and rot, due to believing human waste to be a natural part of humanity yet nobody wondered if this was wrong.

Do you know why the world hates the US ? Well actually no they just hate anyone that thinks they are the center of the world. I am a Buddhist that borderlines on atheism, but I still know enough to know what you are saying is B U L L S H I T.

Moral my ass. Christianity teaches you to feel guilty about your existence (I don't even know how people accept that shit), hateful towards those that the religion disapproves of, and that hell is for eternity. The Bible itself is filled with gruesome language and calls for violence. Well guess what ? No one is taught to feel guilty in Buddhism. No one should be killed, whether they are witches, pagans or allies of Satan. No hell is for eternity. You're taught to be forever grateful to anyone that does as little as giving you a night's shelter from the rain, never to harm a soul, be it animals or insects... In short, you can NEVER use Buddhism to justify anything like the Crusades or the existence of the terrorist state that is Israel.

I'm sure there are other wonderful religions too. But it's not anything Abrahamic. Frankly, from my point of view, the Bible is for barbarians.
