Astrobotics moon mission not going great

[VonBonfire]

I personally don’t see the benefit of praying for something that simple human actions can prevent just the same

You should look into science research on prayer. It might surprise you but the reality is even science can't convince most people.

Molecular? rapid antigen? antibody? PCR vs Multiplex PCR? Do you have a preference?

I have no preference, but the testing I have access to is molecular

If I believed prayer could manifest a desired result, I’m not sure I would pray for something that I can largely control myself.

It's not the same thing as magick.

 

[Dan Gleesak]

It's not the same thing as magick.

I’m saying I wouldn’t feel comfortable praying for something that I can accomplish with my own actions

 

[Bad Brain]

lol well I didn’t design the machine, so sure, you can I have “faith” that it works property if that is how you chose to think

How do you choose to think about it?

 

[Dan Gleesak]

How do you choose to think about it?

That if I put a sample in a covid testing machine it will accurately test for covid

Cool, how long does it take to get results?

 

[VonBonfire]

I’m saying I wouldn’t feel comfortable praying for something that I can accomplish with my own actions

So then what about things you can't accomplish on your own?

 

[Dan Gleesak]

Cool, how long does it take to get results?

Like 20 minutes maybe. Or as I time it, as long as it takes me to check out the hvac system, walk some mechanical rooms and pour a cup of coffee

 

[Bad Brain]

That if I put a sample in a covid testing machine it will accurately test for covid

Oh boy. I mean how do you choose to think about why that is so?

 

[Dan Gleesak]

So then what about things you can't accomplish on your own?

Then I probably don’t need them

 

[Dan Gleesak]

Oh boy. I mean how do you choose to think about why that is so?

I have no idea wtf you are asking

 

[VonBonfire]

Then I probably don’t need them

What about when you are older and can no longer accomplish what you can today?

 

[Dan Gleesak]

What about when you are older and can no longer accomplish what you can today?

Viagra?

 

[VonBonfire]

Viagra?

LIke a loved one who is not responding to medical treatments.

 

[Bad Brain]

I have no idea wtf you are asking

I asked why you believe the test can identify the virus and and you responded, "I didn’t design the machine, so sure, you can [say] I have “faith” that it works property if that is how you chose to think." I followed up asking how you thought about, and you can't seem to give an answer. My question is what makes you believe that the machine does what it is claimed to do, if not "faith"?

I also have a genome sequencer. It sits right next to my fei dualbeam fib em and particle collider. Unfortunately, it's one of those old 2022 models that takes several days to get results.

LIke a loved one who is not responding to medical treatments.

As you know I take most things at face value, so I honestly have trouble grasping the intricacies between prayer and accepting God’s plan.

Because I don’t think science is based on faith.
