If you dont feel like reading this extra s**t just skip to the bold part. I dont blame yah.

I started a giveaway in the chatterbox where I gave everyone who posted on the forum a item. I love blowing peoples minds so all of the items I gave where the s**t. It got really popular for about 4 days and people just stopped posting. I guess it was because I was so busy giving out stuff I couldnt really hold a conversation with the people talking to me. And I want to try again so here I am.

I saw how not that many people where active on this guild anymore, and saw how many people like getting free stuff so im going to help get this guild back up to!

The owners of this guild are perfect, so they need members to back em up.

In the 4 days I had the giveaway in the chatterbox I gave away over 60Mil in items and gold to 17 pages worth of people.

Im going to start a lot slower now though.

To receive gold I want you to help me learn. Ill be changing the topic every now and then after giving out gold to people who give me an insight that actually makes me think. I am very philosophical, and would ******** s**t up for a good phsychology book so please give me anything and everything you think you should tell me pertaining to the topic.

I will not be giving gold to everyone who answers, just the ones that make me think. When i get more than 100Mil, I will have moments of super generousity and help everyone. But for now, I want to give away 500k to people. My gold will last longer. Sorry.


Topic: I want to know what the most important thing to you is. Knowledge wise. Heres an example "My most important thing is learning about human beings, understanding how people think and react to certain situations so i can teach people that no matter what people will misunderstand you depending on how you say something, the situation there in, so on so forth."

I walk a line between agnosticism and deism, depending how tight my tinfoil hat is on; my ideas usually follow a sort of "I see therefore most likely." Simple thinking for a simple man. As dumb as this will make me sound, the simple complexities of fire astound me: such rapid changing of microscopic elements and a seemingly epic expulsion of energy for such little workers is the ******** bee knee's, man, never mind the seemingly endless and random concoctions humans have come up with just seems too well put together. Why is this arrangement of protons and electrons hovering around this nucleus so different than this one? I will be the first to say that "I don't know, therefore God" is a house made out of spit and toothpicks, and a philosophy I don't even fully subscribe to myself. To help spark a conversation I will say that I openly reject the idea of an Abrahamic God, and if it turns out that a God does truly exist and it is the salt-breathing prima donna dickbag everyone knows and loves...

Well, I have high hopes that Hell truly ain't a bad place, after all the only descriptions we have of Hell are by a guy who has shown, documented, and demands being praised for being a lying murderer who has killed every living thing on Earth because it's a Tuesday multiple times; even, no, ESPECIALLY those who did jackshit other than follow his word. Someone I wouldn't invite over to dinner.

I believe god exist.. why do u feel that why ? cause i believe that way... god exist cause people believe and vise-versa
PostPosted: Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:19 pm


I think God does exist. I look at everything around me, and I just cannot believe all of this just happened on its own. There are so many intricate things, an example being the way plants work, or the complex systems that make up the human body, etc.

Just looking at how vast space is...how huge the universe is...I just cannot accept that what we see is all there is to everything, and everything just happened by chance.

I don't beleive in a specific god but I do know humans are made of energy and we even emit a small amount of light and energy Cannot naturally be created or destroyed so once we die I feel like our energy goes somewhere, where?, I'm not sure.But I think religion was created to give people hope, to answer the questions that can't be answerd by logic. Sorry if this is just a bunch of words thrown together I'm quite tired.

god(s) do not exist.

1. the concept was created by peasants thousands of years ago, to help them cope with the massive death rate of their lives and their children's lives.

2. it was encouraged by the higher ups, to keep the peasants in line- that if you did not listen to them, you would go to a horrible place after you die *after they sentenced you to death for disobeying them. This would scare the peasants into submission, thus creating life easier for the rich bastards with all the money.

3. god was also created to explain what could not be scientifically explained at the time. "Why is the sky blue?" because god made it that way. "Why are we here?" Because God created us for a greater purpose, so that we must do our job as good subjects and work our selves to death so we can have a happy after life. "What is that giant bright orb in the sky that gives us light and warmth?" Up there is heaven, that is where God is. He is looking down on us, keeping us safe from the harm of the bandits that want to raid our village every night, blah blah blah.


I could really go on.
God does not exist. The proof of that is the fact that there is no physical proof, and that the only 'proof' that is said to exist, is that created by man, thousands of years ago, and has been warped so much over time, to fit the different eras and the people that ruled them, that there is little to nothing left that was originally believed in.

I think he does exist since we had to have come from something other than our birth parents and they came from something. Man's existence had to come from something. Their two sides, the evolution from primates and how Adam was created from dust. Or it could be we ourselves were essences of energy that spontaneously formed hollow shells and became solid forms.
Well they say that we are created in God's image. I usually think whenever I hear that, 'His' image is a glowing figure of light. That he doesn't have a physical body but, an enigma substance of light energy so we look how he chooses to 'design' us. Kind of like how we 'design' our character avatars. This is what I think. If I had a chance to go back in time it would be to see how 'God' created the earth and world.

I think there is a God. At the very least, some form of higher being with a penchant for beauty and unbelievable coincidences. While I learn more about the Big Bang theory and how Earth developed over time, I just find myself marvelling at how specific conditions just happened to work out so perfectly for us.

Things like the Earth being a habitable distance from the Sun, our (relatively) large moon, the magnetic fields surrounding Earth, having liquid water, the 23.5 degree tilt of Earth's rotation, etc. To me, it's just really fascinating how so many factors just worked out so perfectly, and the chance of all these things happening in just the right conditions seems slim.

It is possible that everything worked out just fine without an other-wordly influence, and if that's your opinion, I'll respect it.

I cant say I believe in god, but I do believe there is a higher power
that keep the world working and everything in its place etc
PostPosted: Mon Mar 24, 2014 8:48 pm


I don't think God exists. nobody in my family is religious so I grew up with that thinking. and now that im older and have thought about it I cant find any really reason to believe in it. I mean, if there really was a God out there that was all-powerful and stuff why hasn't he stopped some of the crap that's happened? out of all the disasters and things that have happened in the world you would think that if a god did exist he would have done something about it. I don't believe in anything like heaven and stuff, but I do kind of hope. I havnt seen anything that should make me believe, but part of me kind of hopes that im wrong so that when I die I wont really be gone completely. but honestly I don't think that will happen.

I was raised Protestant Christian. I was taught that there was a God. But now, I am not so sure. I think that if there is some form of higher being, it wouldn't be just a God, but also a Goddess. This stems from the idea of duality and neutrality. With one, there would have to be the other. A balance. Otherwise, without the balance, everything would be out of wack. Sort of like the world today, where it is primarily a patriarchal type of society that exist throughout the world (there does exist a matriarchal society, but since again one sex is held over the other, imbalance). Other reason exist as to why everything is out of balance, but that is getting off topic.

This is very theological subject and must be tackled from various angles. I started by coming at it from the point where I was raised, a Protestant Christian. But the question could be just as well approached from another angle. You could ask if god exists and this could right away imply another form of religion. A follower of the Torah/Judaism or Koran/Islam would definitely say that there must be a god, that is of course if they have no doubts about their own beliefs. A follow of a nature based religion could say that there is not one god, but many (whether it be Wiccan or Druidic). And it could come from other angles.

So, sticking with the angle from a Protestant Christian, I believe that if a higher being does exist that it must come in a pair: a god and a goddess. I am not a real follower of any religion, but more of a spiritualist (of a sort) more than anything (what some would call a Cafeteria Catholic). This stems from from the idea that I believe that organised religion might be wrong and that what the truth might be is that each person must discover it on their own, not get it from a congregation (and possibly wind up with a mixed message). I come to the idea of there being a possibility of a duality of deities by approaching religion as something that contains both truths and falsehoods and that it up to the individual to figure them out, not someone preaching from a pulpit. This view is also stemming from studying not only Christianity, but other religions as well. As well as branching out beyond religion to other areas, including the Paranormal.

If any of this gives you for thought, I would like very much to hear you take on what I've just posted. Please keep in mind that this just a blip on the whole subject and I could probably go on for several more paragraphs, which I don't I should do as I'll probably bore or offend somebody eventually.

Topic: Do you think a god exists, and if you do explain everything you feel like explaining about why you believe he,she,it exists and how do you think you became to think that way about the god.

Well, i dont really see how one can exsist, i mean theres a mix between "science" and "god" in my eyes. I dont really believe in god, for i havent seen anything come from the praying ive done. I try really hard to try and see how he can be real, but i just cant.

I never really wen to church and my mom never enforced the "godly/ heavanly word on me" i had my own choice i guess. Im along the lines of why should i belive in something that is so jealous and almighty that it will send me to a place to forever suffer if i dont do what he tells me.

I dont see the point in that, how do we know if heaven and hell are even real? Theres perfect explainations to debunk those who claim to have seen heaven. Im just not sure i guess....... rolleyes

I do believe there is a high power, but I believe the stories in the bible and old testament were just tales to teach others a lesson.

Think about it, how can a man fit two of every single species of animals in one boat when we still haven't discovered every single animal yet.

I do believe the figures of angels are actually another species from another galaxy. You see them coming down from the sky, where our space is. The creatures we see in old art and described as angels came to our older time to help us grow an manifest.

How could humans create the great pyramids by their selves? We wouldn't be able to create those structures by their selves without our technology used today? Someone must have helped them that knew more than we do. Maybe the high power or maybe another superior species? Either way, we couldn't do it by ourselves.

Plus, on how people interpret the bible which was created by MAN is controversial. People believe that the bible says it's wrong to be gay, but if it's so wrong to be gay, why would god create a gay child, it says every one of god's creations are perfect. So is being gay actually wrong? It also gives hints that Saint John has a gay relationship with another male.

People say there is evidence to what the bible, old testament, etc. have to offer, but I believe it's science. People thought the world was flat for a while, did god tell them otherwise? NO! They figured it out for themselves.

You know how back then people speak to god and see him, talk to him? These days if you saw that, you would probably be diagnosed as a schizophrenic or have a gods complex.

Plus, people had major health problems back then and did not have the proper treatment like they do now, so people could've been hallucinating back then and seeing what they thought to be god. Look at Albert Fish, he thought god was talking to him and saw hallucinations of Jesus, but in the end he had religious schizophrenia.

As to major health issues, the bible said people lived more than hundreds of years, but in scientific data people were lucky to live to 40 and didn't have the appropriate hygiene back then to live very long. People even died of broken legs and back then they had hard labor, so there must've been a ton of broken bones back then.

It's nice that you are opening up to other's opinions and I hope my comment helped you think a bit.
