Literally René Descartes, arguably one of the most important mathematicians and philosophers in history, spends most of his meditations trying to prove the existence of God. Religious people can be very logical and believe in their religion for logical reasons, even if you and I disagree with those reasons.
lol. there is literally no way to use logic to infer existence of god.
people believe in religion because they were brainwashed to it, usually at young age when they lacked the rational apparatus to resist such brainwashing.
to be fair, logic and inference are different things. logic helps you build structure around a given set of axioms.
actually pure logic can be horribly unhelpful if you start with axioms that are not aligned with reality. that’s why some really smart people can believe in stupid things.
I like the idea of a technologically literate pope.
As long as he doesn’t end up concluding every sermon with “I use Arch btw”
Certainly not. He uses Pope!_OS
I figured it would have to be temple os
I get the vibe Terry was more of a protestant guy
At the very least he grew up Catholic
And just like that a new meme distro has
been bornbeen ordained.There’s white smoke coming out of my PC. That’s normal for this OS, right?
he has a BS in math. not something you usually associate with the pope 🤷♂️
I’d say he must be very logical except, you know…
