Not really. You brain forms complex neural structures necessary for quite a few things.

By your logic, soldering wires randomly to a motherboard will turbo boost your computer

There are no Marxist circle jerk threads on /lit/.

Also, we talk about authors, not retarded /pol/tards

If you really have a superiority complex, you should enter an arena where intellectual discussions happen, i.e. not /lit/

>>5833532
You're right, I totally shitposted in regard of a post I didn't understand the context for.

/lit/ isn't for quality discussion, so I have no regrets.

No, all that argument proves is that you're fucking retarded.

That's not a bad thing. The best mathematician of history, Paul Erdos, took amphetamines his whole life. He was challenged not to for one month, was successful, but claimed doing so "set back mathematics by a month".

A secularist, atheist professor and defener of the science religion was teaching a class on Dawkins, a known persecutor.

"Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship The God Delusion and accept it's wisdom as absolute truth!"

At this moment a brave young Christian and student of Theological studies, who had converted over 1500 lost souls and understood how the problem of evil was nonexistent, stood up ALONE and held up a well-read, note-filled and deeply-annotated bible.
"How can you prove God doesn't exist?"

The cackling, strident and smug professor laughed his condescending laugh now,and smugly replied "Science has proved it so."

"Wrong. Philosophy has proved science to be a lie. For God so loved the world."

The professor was visibly shaken, dropped his copy of On the Origin of Species and blurted many blasphemies. He stormed out of the room crying those false, lying atheist tears.

The students applauded and were all converted to the correct religion that day, as well as holding a baptizing party in the university pool.

The professor lost his tenure and was prayed for the next day. He died of a car accident during a Newsboys concert and was converted just before his death. Hallelujah.

The student's name - Albert Einstein.

Lol, get out

Does evil exist?

Dawkins challenged his students with this question. Did God create everything that exists? A student bravely replied, "Yes, he did!"

"God created everything? Dawkins asked.

"Yes sir", the student replied.

Dawkins answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who we are then God is evil". The student became quiet before such an answer. Dawkins was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students that he had proven once more that the Christian faith was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, "Sir, can I ask you a question?"

"Of course", replied Dawkins.

The student stood up and asked, "Sir, does cold exist?"

"What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never been cold?" The students snickered at the young man's question.

The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is the absence of heat. Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-460 degrees F) is the total absence of heat; all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature. Cold does not exist. We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat."

The student continued, "Sir, does darkness exist?"

Dawkins responded, "Of course it does."

The student replied, "Once again you are wrong sir, darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact we can use Newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is? You measure the amount of light present. Isn't this correct? Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is no light present."

Finally the young man asked: "Sir, does evil exist?"

Now uncertain, Dawkins responded, "Of course as I have already said. We see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil."

To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not like faith, or love that exist just as does light and heat. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light."

Dawkins sat down.

The young man's name — Albert Einstein.

Uh, someone doesn't have to say "I'm a Christian" for me to have confidence that they are. They post their theological ideas in threads regularly.
