11:00:13 | White_Fox | lol |
11:00:19 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme rings the starting bell |
11:00:37 | Lucifer | someone was supposed to PM someone when we start? |
11:00:50 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme: I did. |
11:00:54 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme: kafaka. |
11:00:57 | SLacker | Earl Enzyme: however, clickable links are only available in your regular chat pgm I believe |
11:01:11 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: OK, thanks to all for coming to the first CoV cross-world chat :) |
11:01:24 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme applauds wildly |
11:01:26 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Mo was correct, this is a bit of an experiment |
11:01:50 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: to see how well SLacker works to bridge the gap between SL and IRC |
11:01:54 | WW | * WW whistles and cheers |
11:02:15 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: The topic today is "Rational strategies for irrationality" |
11:02:34 | SLacker | Earl Enzyme slaps Mo siwwy |
11:02:36 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: by that I mean how to deal with irrationality in a rational manner |
11:02:42 | kafaka | like in conventional propagated religions? |
11:02:58 | kafaka | Imean, the abrahamic ones |
11:03:03 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: kafaka, yes or wherever irrationality arises |
11:03:14 | kafaka | and their conservative and anti-innovation memes |
11:03:16 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: it is rather pervasive in my experience |
11:03:39 | kafaka | what does "pervasive" mean? |
11:03:43 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: I did leave one aspect of the topic ambiguous on purpose |
11:03:47 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme: first off, I think a certain amount of irrationality is inevitable. The human mind is attracted to supernaturalisms as a side effect of our ability to think abstractly |
11:04:04 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: pervasive means it is everywhere you look |
11:04:05 | kafaka | Mo has a goodpoint there |
11:04:09 | White_Fox | Having the quality or tendency to pervade or permeate |
11:04:16 | kafaka | understood, luc |
11:04:23 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow nods to Mo |
11:04:27 | kafaka | yes,I am portuguese |
11:04:41 | kafaka | so, you must forguive my rudimentar use of english |
11:04:52 | SLacker | Mo Enzyme: Kafaka, Pascal Boyer posited this in his book, Religion explained. |
