"Consider more closely the puddle’s reasoning. Let’s name our puddle Doug. He has noticed a precise match between two things: 1) his shape and 2) the shape of the hole in which he lives. Doug is amazed! What Doug doesn’t know is that, given A) the fluidity of water, B) the solidity of the hole, and C) the constant downward force of gravity, he will always take the same shape as his hole. If the hole had been different, his shape would adjust to match it. Any hole will do for a puddle. This is precisely where the analogy fails: any universe will not do for life. Life is not a fluid. It will not adjust to any old universe. There could have been a completely dead universe: perhaps one that lasts for 1 second before recollapsing or is so sparse that no two particles ever interact in the entire history of the universe. Think about the real explanation to Doug’s observation: A (fluid water) + B (solid hole) + C (gravity). If the puddle analogy applies to fine-tuning, what corresponds to A+B+C? What explains the match between what our universe does and what life requires? The puddle analogy doesn’t say. Invoking the puddle against fine-tuning is essentially saying “perhaps a solution exists.” Well, OK, sure, thanks for that, but what could that solution be?"

(and ain't it interesting - without the hole there would be no Doug the puddle. A hole itself is a formation with specific parameters. Even if life was fluid, it still does need a hole, not a hill or a plato (and all three of them can be made of the same materials), to exist.

"When you tolerate something, you agree to respectfully endure something you don’t believe or like. It means to recognize and respect another’s beliefs and practices without agreeing with them. You don’t tolerate things you agree with. You don’t tolerate things you approve of. You can only truly tolerate something you do not support."

"Despite a century of conservation science, advocacy and education, extinction rates and habitat loss have increased greatly. Current extinction rates are about 1,000 times higher than estimated background rates,[6] leading some scientists to speak of ‘defaunation’[7] caused by humanity’s impact within a new geological era labelled the ‘anthropocene’.[8]

At the heart of the crisis within biodiversity conservation is a simple question which divides the global conservation movement: What gives nature its value? Is conservation’s raison d’être purely instrumental, preserving habitats and species because of the ‘ecosystem services’[9] they provide for human thriving, or can we speak of intrinsic or inherent values within species and ecosystems and, if so, on what are these values based?"

This is my coffee song
I'm gonna drink it all day long
I'll make you a cup
So you can drink along

"Several decades ago, Ernest Becker wrote a very challenging book called The Denial of Death. He showed how society works to create hero-systems and elaborate ways of suppressing or altogether avoiding the reality of death. Woody Allen adds degree of humor to the problem: "It's not that I'm afraid to die, I just don't want to be there when it happens.""

Vakar lasīju Ījaba grāmatu, šis kaut kā mani aizķēra par (aktuālo) tēmu: padomdošana sociālajos tīklos
"Kā tu nu esi palīdzējis tam, kam pašam nav spēka, kā esi atbalstījis to, kā elkonis ir vājš! Kādu padomu tu nu esi sniedzis tam, kam nav paša gudrības, un cik lielā pārpilnībā tu viņam esi cēlis priekšā savas zināšanas! Kā priekšā tu esi uzstājies ar pamācīgu runu, un kā gars ir runājis no tevis?

"In contrast, critical theory is associated with a metanarrative that runs from oppression to liberation: We are members either of a dominant group or of a marginalized group with respect to a given identity marker. As such, we either need to divest ourselves of power and seek to liberate others, or we need to acquire power and liberate ourselves by dismantling all structures and institutions that subjugate and oppress. In critical theory, the greatest sin is oppression, and the greatest virtue is the pursuit of liberation."

"He asked a few fellow physicists who were also Christians about it and they told him there was nothing to worry about, and that it was people in the arts and humanities who were struggling to reconcile their faith with their studies. Indeed, when Russell eventually started lecturing in the Cambridge physics department, he attended an annual dinner that his church held for members who were also university faculty. There were 23 faculty at the dinner and 22 of them were scientists - with "one very worried-looking historian!"
Far from being incompatible, from Russell's point of view, his faith and his science go hand-in-hand:

"Some people view faith as being one explanation of the world and science as another. It's a turf war...But I don't believe they're competing explanations, I think they're parallel explanations."

Indeed, rather than squeezing God out, Russell sees advances in scientific knowledge as magnifying God's glory: "Understanding more of science doesn't make God smaller. It allows us to see His creative activity in more detail." (See Russell's TEDx talk on Nanotechnology, Creation and God.)"
