    Lightning occurs in this natural world and observed, studied, predicted, explained and recreated. That means it is NOT supernatural.
    I'm not claiming "lightning" is supernatural. I'm claiming that I don't see astronomers/scientists discovering the forces that produce lightning.

      Have you looked for research and not found any? The discovery of "sprites" is fairly recent. Take a look at that.

        We can't look for a 'political force' behind every single scientific development, can we? The 'political force' behind science and religion can be true only to a degree and in some cases...

        The best way would be to have a foot in Armenia.

Many have become self centered and have put material/money/status over human/friendship. Much like the lifestyle that the rest of the "civilized" world is adopting.
        Okay, I thought you were complaining about your personal life, as for people around you that's the case everywhere in the world except that its manifestation is in a different way depending on cultures and how developped a country is.

          That will just bring you back to the "what came first, the chicken or the egg?". The world is entirely linked, everything is dependent on something else and we're in perfect equilibrium. If the first domino were to fall, the rest would go down with it.

            Well, I have come to find that these arguments are at their peak during "election" time .

            But yeah, I wasn't implying every religious and scientific force is untrue

            Why do I need a foot, isn't a heart enough?

            I was, but that's also tied to this retarded society that has formed around me.

              Come again? You complained that it's not being studied. Then upon seeing that is is, you say it's pointless?

                Not pointless, it will just open new doors.... the learning is never ending, its an endless cycle.

                  That's not the same as a chicken or the egg (directionality/causality) quandary.

                  You know you type words, but you really aren't saying anything.

                    That's because I don't talk when I type. And you can't relate one thing to another unless its the exact same subject.

                    If you're walking through a series of rooms, and in each room is a piece of knowledge and once you acquire that knowledge, a new key is given to you to open the door to the next room. The gauntlet is endless. The chicken and the egg in the same way is an endless argument. This doesn't mean that it's pointless, this means that we are naturally inclined to learn and grow and the only thing that impedes progress is those that don't want others to attain the knowledge that certain people already have. Knowledge is power and not everything is going to be revealed to the general population. The reason why you say that I'm not saying anything is because you find philosophy, politics, religion among many other studies pointless.

                      Enlighten me then and show me the connection which I failed to see.
