    Chuck the god(s)

    People's imaginations of God (however accurate they may be) have had a profound and lasting effect on reality. I don't know any better way to judge what does or does not exist. After all, something like capitalism has never existed outside the imagination and yet we don't really think of it as...

    When You Meet God

    To answer the OP, yes. But probably just to see the look on my face. Then god'll be like, "Just kidding! Remember that thread?"

    When You Meet God

    And he sounds just like James Mason.

    Why does God not talk to us?

    Tell better jokes. God talks to me all the time. Because I'm hilarious.

    What are the prime motives of religious people?

    Certainly, it would be nice if power came with a compass if any kind. But it doesn't. Naturally, I have encountered plenty of morals and ethics. It's a good thing that power comes to us all. I'm not really saying we're all motivated by power, I'd say most people rarely get to the comfort level...

    Religion and Compliance

    Idealy, as long as someone's idea of 'individual freedom' doesn't include removing it from someone else, then 'sin' should be mostly ignored if it isn't your own. Absolutely not. Forcing an ideal on someone is probably the quickest way to ensure disobedience. We punish ourselves for our own...

    What are the prime motives of religious people?

    I don't really know what 'taking it seriously' actually means unless we're talking about extremists. This topic that we all love to discuss seems (in my experience) to be mostly confined to the internet. The average human being I encounter would much rather avoid the subject. This includes...

    Why I shouldn't be astonished for those why deny a creator for such elaborated universe

    Warning labels are meant to be obnoxious.

    What are the prime motives of religious people?

    Not to sound too smug, but I would say it motivates more people than anything you have listed. By a long shot.

    What are the prime motives of religious people?

    In which case you have left out tacos. Tacos are a possible motivation for anyone.

    Master Theory on Morality

    It appears you have misspelled the word 'mysterious' as 'master'.

    What are the prime motives of religious people?

    So when you say 'prime' you mean... 'possible'

    What are the prime motives of secular people?

    To confirm with bias!

    Why I shouldn't be astonished for those why deny a creator for such elaborated universe

    Agreed, but I only meant to speak for myself. This is more or less what I was saying about clouds though. Clouds and dragons are similar in this respect. If people don't call them clouds (or at least think of them as clouds) then they aren't clouds. The point being I create the dragons myself as...

    Religious Evidence, Scientific Evidence?

    No. They both read books written by dead people and believe them. Different books. Yes, one is far more entertaining. Obviously. One uses repetition. The other uses... umm, never mind they are the same.

    Chuck the god(s)

    I'm fond of saying that existence is a given. If you can think about it, it exists. Its only what it is that's ever really in question. The airplane was nothing but imagination at some point, for example. Now, instead of being only imagination it is now a super-amazing flying machine. Consider...

    Why I shouldn't be astonished for those why deny a creator for such elaborated universe

    If I have to give it to someONE as opposed to someTHING then I'm only going to blame myself. I see dragons because I want to. I actively seek out clouds that look like dragons and point them out to people. That's obviously my fault. Clouds are what they are regardless of what I call them, but...

    How Many People Here Are Religious, And How Many Not?

    It was meant jokingly, of course. I love everyone. Even douchebags! In the 'real' world I rarely discuss the topic as it is often a hot button in my current environment. I do a lot of smiling and nodding when it comes to religion. I enjoy this place and I've missed it.

    Are there verses in the bible that have been proven to be scientifically true after the writing?

    Once again...? That's the only post I made... For example? Can you direct me to some dire consequences suffered by someone fact-checking the Bible say... 500 years ago? Charles Darwin: 1809-1882. Council of Nicea: 325 Darwin was fairly new at birth by comparison to the Bible. I stick by my...
