Always enjoyed Dilbert back when I got the paper and worked with engineers in an office. He nailed it.

[Barrister]

I am sorry to hear this, it is a horrible disease.

He had a podcast "Real Coffee with Scott Adams" that was quite good.

 

He would use a persuasion lens to try to get you to see his point of view.

[Victoria Watcher]

He really only rise to particularly prominence when he was one if the few that predicted quite clearly a Trump win in 2016.

So he was better in the summer but he has taken a downtown this week. He asked Trump to approve him for an experimental drug this week. Trump gave him the aithorizatiin.

For some reason, I thought he died about a year ago. Mandela effect? Or was it just me…

'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams says his chances of cancer recovery are 'essentially zero'

 

 

 

Scott Adams, the 68-year-old creator of the long-running comic strip “Dilbert,” shared a grim health update about his prostate cancer diagnosis.

 

During a livestream of his show “Real Coffee with Scott Adams” on Thursday, Adams shared details from a conversation he had with his radiologist the day before.

 

“It’s all bad news,” Adams said. “The odds of me recovering are essentially zero.”

 

“I’ll give you any updates if that changes, but it won’t,” he added.

 

Adams told fans that January will likely be a “month of transition,” adding that he will continue livestreaming for “as long as it makes sense.”

 

“I like doing it,” Adams said. “Keeps me busy.”

 

“I will probably write down some closing thoughts today just so I have them,” he went on to say.

Dilbert was a great strip. It was the one I read for years.

[Victoria Watcher]

He looked pretty awful yesterday.

He has taken Pascal’s Wager.

It could be just a few days.

Good choice Scott.

Belief in God is a metaphor for simply how you live IMO. You can’t pronounce a belief on a podcast to get into heaven. Or maybe you can who knows.
I think Scott has gifted people with his humour and eventual humility enough to get a pass in without having to say anything. I do admire that he publicly admitted he was wrong. That’s a heavenly move.

He's taking a risk/reward stance.  Can't hurt.  He is going to die anyway.

[max.bravo]

If the Bible is true (it is) then the thief on the cross is the example Scott is following. You can absolutely get into heaven at the last minute. That is the grace of God.
Scott sounds like he is on the right track. The angels in heaven are rejoicing.

Belief is God is much more than a metaphor for how you live life. It’s all about the person of Jesus. He is alive.

[dasmo]

There are many stories and theologies of God. Many that believe theirs is the one true God, including atheism and scientism. I respect your belief, I just don't share it. If I was to subscribe to a theory in this regard, it would be the Hermetic principles. That we are "within the mind of the all" the all being personified as God. and that being within it we can only observe it's laws but we can never be outside of it to truly see what it is. So I guess I can accept that Jesus lives in all of us. As a metaphor not a literal statement. 

 

Also, one of my takes from the bible was that the relationship with God is personal?
