xxmia If you start worrying too much about proof and the apocolypse, you'll never have a true life. Exactly.
You're my hero. heart

xxmia I hate it when this is made into a big deal. Its something religious. I myself believe in God, but you might be offending others. Try keeping this stuff to yourself, or in less public places. If you start worrying too much about proof and the apocolypse, you'll never have a true life. Christians are suppose to be like salt: Salt adds flavor to food and can irritate if enters the eye or open wound. We add flavor to the world by going out a preaching the word of God. We irritate by telling the word to the closed minded.

We irritate by telling the word to the closed minded. We're not close minded because we don't beleive in the same religion as you. I personally am Agnostic. I do not deny that yes, there may be a 'God' but I choose not to beleive in anything written by someone using basic rules of how to get about in life...two thousand years ago. My beleifs are my own, based on my own personal experience.

Zytokira Which, in some way, does actually prove the non-existance of God. Other than that, we were doing something about this in R.E. last week (and forgive me if the words are misspelt). A God must be: - All powerful (omnipotent) - All loving (benevolent) - All seeing/knowing (omniscient) 1. If God loves us but cannot see evil, he is not omniscient, ergo, he is not a God. 2. If God can see evil and can stop it but choses not to, he is not benevolent, ergo, he is not a God. 3. If God can see evil and wants to stop it but can't, then he is not omnipotent, ergo, he is not a God. And there you go the Philosophical "Problem of Evil" in the proof of the existence of God that men like Descartes and Leibniz have been trying to work around with goofy notions like "I think therefore I am (oh BTW the rest of you could be cogniscient robots, but WTHever dude, I EXIST!)" and "oh see the way it is, is God makes you both want to drink the water and moves your hand at the same time, EVERYTHING is predetermined like this!"

I do no such thing. I beleive in no religion, just a scattered assortment of morals and whatnot that have helped me through life before. To me, that is all I need. I don't need a 'God' to lean on, or pray to, or to excuse the wrongs and rights of others. Others may need to, however.

My mind works in such a way that everything must have a reason. When I boil down to the bone, God is logical. I'm not infallibal, I might have over looked a thing or two. But until I find out on my own God isn't real, I have no other choice but to beleive.

I'm just thinking of a possible way for that mentality to fit in with someone who perhaps believes in physicalism... is that possible?

Megami-sama Littlespirit You are all a bunch of idiots. Do you not see that God is our Lord? I'll give you proof- There are beleivers! how about some proof in Jesus Christ, and how he came back from the dead? They've found cloth with Jesus' blood, and a statement made by the guards that there was an earthquake, and 'Flashes of brilliant White lightning' before the rock opened, and the angel sat there! So how's THAT for proof?! They found Blood on the cloth that Jesus left in his tomb, and they haven't a clue what the blood type is- because it's holy!! For other religonious people, If you worship someone who has a figure, a shape in which to call it's own, You have been fooled. Your parents and your grandparents have been fooled. The LORD is the only god- there is no other! If you worship an unknown figure, then that figure of worship is unreal. God made man in his own image. Therefore, God has a figure- not one we know of though. God has three parts, The father- the LORD almighty, The Son- Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit(Ghost)- Who combines them together. Think of him this way, God is a necklace, earrings, and a bracelet. the LORD is the earrings, creater of all things, higher than power itself; Jesis Christ is the Bracelet, changing it's form when moved from one arm to the next - or changing from a holy being to a human figure; The Holy Spirit as the necklace, making it a set, combining it to make it jewelry. Without any of these peices it is only a part, a fragment of GOD. Without faith we are as soulless as a dog. Be a friend, Be a unworthy comrade. Love god with all your strenght, and he will love back. As for the Evolution theory, How many million years could it be on earth in one simple day in heaven? God created man on the 6th day, and stayed to relax with them on the 7th. Seeing as he is God, the Devine Creater, he could live with Adam+Eve for their entire lives on earth, yet still return to heaven and live there... A special plus- No jetlag. Like I said, watch the video: ]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3593866248238036452&q=a+hepful+hand]

Just because a man who may or may not have been named Jesus Christ existed, does not mean he was the son of God.
A pet theory of mine is that Mary had an illegitimate child, and to get herself off the hook, told everyone he was the son of God. Little Jesus grew up believing this, and then got crucified when he was 30, all because his mother wanted to avoid being stoned.

That's a fairly morbid, but not so unheard of theory. The baptists believe something similar, though Jesus is still the son of God, according to them. Joseph wanted to divorce Mary for her obvious 'discrepancy'.
