What a strange statement.

Why?

Do you consider there is a personal god who actually gives a rats arse
out there who loves you to bits?

Or perhaps you think that Corbyn and chums actually give a ****?


I care not for religion, but believe in morals. My family mean a lot to
me, as it does for all families.
You sound weird saying that no lives matter.

So what does matter mean in this context.
if an astroid of sufficint size hits the Earth human life will be pretty much be over does it matter ? or who does it mattee too enough to stop it happening ?

So you don't care about anybody then?

That has nothing to do with it. It doesn't matter how much I care I can't stop an astroid hiting the Earth.
This reminds me of when my mother told me she stopped believing in God.
It was after the aberfan disaster.

We are NOT talking about caring but whether things matter or not.

Did God care about those children ? did those children matter to God.

Life on the planet matters to most people.

And it matters to all animals, bacteria, plants and just about anything else decribed as living.

Most people would say it's a good idea to make a system to repel asteroids.

Most people never think about it, how much have you invested in an asteroid repeler doesn;t that show you what a good idea it is. How can you say this matters to you if you don;t do anything about it ?
