There are a lot of uninhibited places (forests mainly) in Brazil if you have the guts to deal with the possibility of being kidnapped

Feel free to explore a desert though, closest thing you will get to mars

Though I know people like you, you just want a comfortable videogame experience

It heavily depends on the context, there is a lot of legislation about when you aren't punished for killing someone, if you kill a home breaker at day for example you are will be judged for murder, but not if you kill him at night

>or other's lives
I don't think so, see above

>religion
Wrong too, unless they agreed to it beforehand (by being and staying part of the tribe israelites knew what was the punishment for idolatry) or it's a holy war

>or freedom
Wrong, Moses didn't free his brothers by himself. The people need to repent and make an appeal.

But why would you go out of your way to fuck everything up? To create this "strong AI", you'd have to first make a powerful general AI, and then go through the extra step of programming some ground objectives into it.

Okay, but the humanity-destroying capabilities of strong AI have been discussed ad nauseam in the most dramatic and fear-mongering terms imaginable, yet pop-sci figures and their fans still discuss it as if it were an inevitability that stems from the power and generality of a sufficiently advanced AI, rather than from the bizarre and active mistake of programming desires into the system.

Your desire is based on your mistaken sense of superiority, which stems from your overinflated ego. A machine without an ego would never have the desire to destroy less intelligent beings.

Why do physicists claim that the standard model based on QFT and general relativity are the most accurate theories when they not only contradict eachother, but also have internal inconsistancies like bullshit infinities showing up everywhere in calculuations?
>But that happens classically aswell :(
Yes, but classical field theory and mechanics doesn't claim to be valid in the domains where problems show up, problems in QFT and general relativity show up in their supposed domain of application.

So that this isn't taken as a religion vs. science thread (fuck you, mods), can you tell me if there are any flaws, non-religious people point out in the theory? Two I've heard are these:

1. There's no proof macroevolution exists. You can't turn a fly into a human.
2. Out of place fossils.

You don't understand what intelligence means. Intelligence is just your ability of problem-solving, that's it. Very intelligent people can argue for almost any ridiculous claim and believe it if they have a strong bias. In this case, my uncle made some claims I was unable to refute because I never took the time to listen to the "best" arguments against evolution.

Evolution as a method to improve a set of genes works in Computer Science. Evolutionary algorithms are used in conjunction with Deep Learning and they provide better results. It's hard to deny that evolution works. That being said, it doesn't mean that humans got to where we are through evolution. It's our only rational explanation that fits the complexity of the world, but there might be more. One stumbling block in the theory of evolution is consciousness. Where did it come from? Do animals have consciousness? Trees? Bacteria? Atoms?

What about plants? Many plants have been selectively bred to become very different from what their wild versions are. Humans created an environment where differently fit plants from the same species survived and prospered.

Brassica oleracea is a species of plant. It is also known as wild cabbage. This one species of plant is all of the following: cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, Brussels sprouts, collard greens, Savoy cabbage, kohlrabi, and gai lan.

This obviously raises questions about what defines a species. Is a cabbage different from Brussels sprouts? We don't consider them to be different, but if a person had run into them a few hundred years ago they would consider them to be different species of plants.

Yeah, but then a "skeptic" would argue that part of macroevolution doesn't exist because we haven't shown something like a bacteria evolving into a butterfly or something.
