While I do agree with this argument to some extent, I feel like it contains a groundless assumptions that the laws, physics, working of our world was present in the world before big bang. How can we be so sure?
I usually have a problem with explaining this point clearly due to my lack of...
I'd give my personal opinion in detail on the topic later on as I have to take a nap for now, but I'd like to talk about one thing before going:
Although I am not a Christian, so I don't know if my view counts. However, I'd like to point out that there are many who don't want to receive...
Your seeing is limited. You are a short-sighted human beings, just like me. Human beings are short-sighted, imperfect and full of flaws. There are so many times we can't even correctly diagnose other [sick] human beings who are in front of us who are observable and testable. There are many...
Well, I personally feel he [and all of us] needs to ask for forgiveness both to God and to God's creatures he has wronged. When it comes to seeking forgiveness, I don't think it's necessarily for one's own self, but rather, those who have been wronged. We need to ask for God's Forgiveness as...
I think so. Let's take an example of some of the most unrepentant butchers in history to elaborate my point. Let's take Carl Panzram. Now, those who read about the guy knows that [according to historians] he didn't any forgiveness for all the horrible things he did [to say the least]. Is this...
Considering human beings are bound to inherently flawed, imperfect nature and brain, I think we do need forgiveness for mistakes are bound to happen due to this. Not sure which God, though. Whether it is Christian God and/or some other God, I do feel we need a power superior to us to make up for...
Welcome to the forum, my brother. I can assure, everyone here is a top-notch individuals. Not only will you find top-notch thinkers here like ChristineM, Sunstone, Left Coast, Polymath, Rival, danieldemol, Evangelicalhumanist, KAT-KAT, Shadow Wolf and many, MANY OTHERS, but you will find all of...

As for why you never met any man of such opinion, tell me something --- Would a crocodile let fresh meat out of it's mouth? It's all about power, dominance in my humble opinion.
It's very common, unfortunately. I don't know anyone who isn't possessive either. And I feel like it's a negative sign. To me it seems like that we are still hanging onto medieval patriarchal mentality. That women are commodity that we possess, own that our forefathers during hunter gatherers...
Exactly! I can't understand why people can't outgrow it. I, too, don't have jealousy and other childish urges. However, whenever my ex talked about her fantasy, there was extreme excitement [sort of like the ending of the movie Monamour]. Hell, I can go as far as saying I am HOPING my future...
Nah. This may come off as weird as hell to you and others [maybe?], but I don't have such feelings at all. I used to have that when I was a teen, but I grew out of them just like I grew out of lot of things which are absurd in my humble opinion. Now, rather than jealousy, I feel [like Christine...
Are you into Slender Man?
Jokes asides, I don't think there's anything wrong with it. This is coming from a guy who have a history with a religion far, FAR stricter than Christianity can ever be. My ex had a fantasy of getting it on with multiple men on a beach on a rainy day, and I loved her...
Great game and probably the best gaming series ever.
I think the problem here is Muslims, and their ignorance, irrationality and arrogance. They can't put 2 and 2 together and come to the conclusion that all they are getting from Hadiths are bunch of hearsays, and as such, not reliable [and...
Are you seriously taking Hadith as a reliable source of information? I mean, really? Do you think bunch of unconfirmed hearsays which started out centuries after the death of Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. and has been passed on from one person to another for even more centuries ... can be trusted as...
