    Do You Agree?

    Religion is inexorably entwined with morality. My county's police are the largest/population and most highly paid. Responding to grafitti, they say "what can I do about it?" They get paid to do something about it, not just ignore all crime and eat donuts. When homeless people are caught...

    Who Made Religion?

    God said: No war. . . "thou shalt not kill." President W. Bush (defying God) said "fighting the Axis of Evil." Theists believe without proof. That makes them perfect patsies for Satan. Tell them that we need to defy God by fighting wars (Iraq, Afghanistan, attempted war in Niger (Google...

    Do atheists believe in magnetism?

    Atheists "can" believe in magnetism based on its effects. Atheists don't feel that there are affects that can only be attributed to God. Once could argue that a man named Atlas is holding up the world. But that begs the question, what is holding up Atlas. The answer is that he is standing on...

    Can humans truly understand God?

    I think that it is possible to create something greater than one's self. For example, I have difficulty, in my mind, without the use of a computer, taking the cube root of 340987. But, we can build a computer to easily do it. This doesn't mean that it is better than we are in all aspects...

    Can humans truly understand God?

    Perhaps, in this random world, stability is not the goal?

    Can humans truly understand God?

    It helps to seek the solitude of a high mountain retreat. There, we can meditate about why we went to such a cold place, a place difficult to get to, and a place that is difficult to come back from. Is it, perhaps, to seek the knowledge of a high guru? If so, why would he be there? The Incas...

    Can humans truly understand God?

    Perhaps wasting time is the best use of time?

    Can humans truly understand God?

    I don't want to argue about whether or not this is an argument, or I might lose the argument.

    Can humans truly understand God?

    What Gods are? What God is? If you believe in the trinity, is that plural or singular or both? Can God understand humans? Can God grasp the concept that He made flawed humans, then blames humans for being flawed, and tortures their poor souls for eternity if they don't turn out any better...

    Questions that believers cannot answer

    The bible says "judge not lest ye be judged." But, if we can't judge Satan, we might make the mistake of following him. If we lack the capacity to judge God (perhaps because God is so magnificent that we cannot grasp Him), then we lack the capacity to judge anyone or anything. We must be able...

    Questions that believers cannot answer

    When someone dies, a carnation is put in their lapel. If the carnation blooms again, they wake up and they are fine (re-carnation).

    Questions that believers cannot answer

    Trailblazer: "why did God create a world in which He knew some people would suffer so much more than others, many people hardly suffering at all? How is that fair?" Jews were: 1. starved to stick figures, 2. had their skin peeled off without anesthetics, live to make lamp shades 3...

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    There is no science to back up my statement. But, I wonder if the universe keeps expanding until it forms the big bang (back in time to the beginning). That is, the beginning (alpha) might be the end (omega)?

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    Lol. God punishes man for being imperfect (as He made us). He made us with genitals than frowns on us using them. He made us curious, then kicked us out for tasting the forbidden fruit. He imposed original sin on us, for the actions of our ancestors, yet aren't we all responsible for only...

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    It's not the nose that bothers me. Many people bump along, oblivious to the world around them, and blissfully uninformed. The New Testament bible makes it clear that we must be informed about the bible. It is like Mr. Magoo mistaking obvious signs of Global Warming, signs of evolution, and...

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    Greedy, self-serving, obsequious people "earn" their way into eternal bliss by believing. But, perhaps generous atheists, who have no ulterior motive to help, are more deserving to ascend the throne of heaven. Ostensibly, religion should motivate improvement and goodness. Rather, it is a...

    “In the beginning God created man in His own image, and man has been trying to repay the favor ever since.” (Voltaire)

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    Perhaps the atheist, whose kind deeds serve God inadvertently, is more worthy of heaven than the most greedy self-serving pretender to the throne of heaven?

    God convinced me he doesn't exist. What did he do to to convince you he does or doesn't exist??

    Historically, Jesus did exist, and a few people wrote about Him and His miracles. However, it is a stretch to say that He is the son of God or that He is God (or both). Jewish prophecy said that a Messiah would come from the House of David. Though Joseph was of the House of David, Joseph was...
