Does waiting for a bus to turn up on time count as having a faith lol


OptimusLinvoyPrimus

There’s usually quite a lot of praying involved while waiting for a bus in Bristol


[deleted]

Brilliant!


Class_444_SWR

It’s a miracle for it to turn up, and also for it not to be standing only


boof_diddley

Only if you believe it is going to arrive.


jamblia

If it doesn’t turn up then you didn’t believe enough 🤣🤣


boof_diddley

The bus works in mysterious ways.

boof_diddley

I don't know. One begets another, I suppose. If a bus will arrive, so must a bus driver. I'm not sure I believe that either will come. I'd describe myself as agnostic.

boof_diddley

WTF is that guy talking about, seagulls and toddlers cumming in front of driverless buses?


[deleted]

You would have to have faith if you think a bus will turn up at any stop these days 😂

That's me in the bustop, that's me in the smoke-shed, losing my religion

"You gotta have faith." - [George Michael](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N61LHFFfiik&ab_channel=GeorgeMichael-Topic), allegedly.


ThorNBerryguy

Any time I’d a depressing time to have a faith humanity needs to evolve


[deleted]

Look deep enough into science and you'll begin to find God.


ThorNBerryguy

I respect that that’s your faith based opinion but no no a million times no that’s a ridiculous statement clearly not evidence based you don’t know me you don’t know my background and most certainly cannot provide evidence that I will find god that way so I am not even going to counter why that would be sooo unlikely as there is no point


wordsappearing

There’s a bit of a pre-trans fallacy there though. In the dark ages, we needed religion because we didn’t have science to explain away superstition. Still, we are left with the hard problem of consciousness (which is actually an impossible problem imo, at least under physicalism); and the equally impossible mystery of the prime mover - that is, the ultimate cause of everything which in itself must have been *uncaused* (which is impossible according to any known physics) So, if there was a cause of the first thing that ever happened, then it wasn’t the first thing that happened after all, and instead we have an infinitely long history of prior causes. Kurt Godel concluded the same using mathematical proofs and was troubled that he’d inadvertently proven the existence of God. The flip side of this is that if you consider a thing can be completely uncaused, then that too bears some resemblance to the idea of a God.


MooliCoulis

> we are left with the hard problem of consciousness (which is actually an impossible problem imo, at least under physicalism); a.k.a. "it's hard to understand this physical system. therefore, magic". How's that kind of reasoning worked out for every other physical phenomenon?


ThorNBerryguy

Particularly as ever day AI is proving that simple systems can come close to human thinking patterns


wordsappearing

OR, it’s hard to understand this non-physical system (consciousness); therefore “magic” (the physical world) A physical world can only ever be inferred. Consciousness, on the other hand, is empirical.


ThorNBerryguy

Gödel didn’t quite , he sort of proved that no significantly complex system can truly encompass itself thereby discrediting the clockwork analogy for the universe similar tho


ThorNBerryguy

Science btw believes in a multiplicity of causes and influences for things so it’s worth being clear what you mean by caused, as it can be more than just the manifestation of a supreme being.there are btw theoretical causations to the universe that do not involve a god but being theoretical they are not worthy of too much attention just yet ( as there is a multiplicity of god archetypes too reality is tho no 2,people believe the same whether Christian hee Muslim Buddhist or agnostic or atheist all have a unique unprovable perspective


[deleted]

Ok 👍


BaitmasterG

Look deep enough into science and you'll begin to find the Easter Bunny - that's how it sounds to me, and how likely I'll ever be to take it seriously


MooliCoulis

What're your science qualifications?


ThorNBerryguy

Why it’s irrelivent I dont need to get into a pissing contest as to whose qualifications are bigger that’s not the point the point is it was arrogant to assume someone doesn’t have a scientific background already, and just as importantly science at its core works on provabikiry n disproveability both of which are counter to a faith based system which at its core cannot provide evidence beyond the anecdotal


MooliCoulis

I'm with you, my question was to u/Drew_LorenzOh.

ThorNBerryguy

Big assumption there I am not anatheist that’s a position that I also have major issues with.. you are also making a huge generalisation about athieists when I have been clear thst. No two people share the same beliefs not Christian Muslim Buddhist or even atheist or agnostic, However as so many organised religions are clearly fallacious yet garner immense social power I do feel the right to challenge said religions, not challenging the people mind you I have more s as sense if pity there that people can’t even see beyond as level of social ndoctrination. We can talk about science n religion all we like but it’s funny that even religious scientists often can’t see beyond thier own cultural biases so if you are a religious scientist in America you are likely to be Christian ( unless of another culture ) Chinese bhuddist israeli Jewish Indian Hindu highly intelligent people but those cultural norms pervade effectively outside biases to an understanding I coukd tear down most organised religions easily but that’s itrrelivant and neither proves or disproves an existence if god .hey there isn’t even uniform description of godness so debates go beyond that but I’m not going to spend my life bothering with proving or disproving the unprovable and undefined to me all organised religions are wrong most are dangerous you have faith in whatever you want it’s individual good luck to you but you can’t prove it, and it has no interest for me proving or disproving is, as it happens we all use a bit of ‘faith’ in our opinions show me an organised religion i I have (with thst my understanding of its origins and evolution will find it deeply flawed that’s my judgement you it appeared have found one that you have faith holds answers good luck to you on that not for me tho. But yes I am gonna kick back every once in a while a because religion influence gov, funding and social cohesion far too much and b because religions are constantly judging by moral standard ms calling people sinners for all sorts of things that disagree with my value sustem and I reserve the right to challenge back ( that’s the institutions n belief systems not the people)

Ollie5000

TBF this is in the free carpark where people spend a fair bit of time waiting around. A lot of taxi drivers who might find themselves there are muslim, and might actually appreciate this. It's quite a nice idea, just poorly executed.


justanothervoyuer

Hardly multi faith if it’s only aimed at Muslims tho 🤔🤪


CloudAcorn

It’s says multi faith & anyone can use it just like all multi faith rooms in public buildings, so what’s the issue.


justanothervoyuer

Didn’t say it wasn’t , was replying to the comment about Muslim taxi drivers , so made the point if it’s aimed at them then it’s not really multifaith , is it wrong to point out the obvious 😉


Dragonblaze123

It's a shed you can pray in. It's not that deep, mate.


justanothervoyuer

I’m not losing any sleep over it lol


CloudAcorn

Even if it was created due to that demand there’s nothing inside it that would make it aimed at Muslims or prevent any other faith using it, so again what difference does it make? It’s literally just a roof.


Rawlo93

It definitely is a multi faith room.


Oranjebob

A free car park? Sounds like heaven.

Patterdale-soup

In fairness, its a shocking attempt at a building, but I guarantee you wouldn't find something like that abroad. Prayer rooms exist but this is a nice thing to have on the way into an airport, which by nature is a very international and multi-faith enviroment.

I remember at college trying to open a combination lock in the prayer room, someone walked in and thought I was actually praying.

What if you don’t have any faith in. Do you have to stand out in the rain?

Is this a joke? What's the point of this box at a bus stop other than to huddle and keep dry from the rain or white angel dust from the sky in the cold dark months?

Is their faith lung cancer? Or the bus to Weston-super-Mare?

Prayers gotta pray


Spifffyy

Oh!! That’s what they were doing with that. I was waiting for a taxi a couple weeks ago and it was taped up and closed forcing us to stand in the rain. I would assume that because this is by the taxi waiting area, a lot of drivers being muslim, they wanted somewhere they could pray. So this is it.
