Many theists cannot comprehend a person having a valid system of morality that was not handed to them by a religious group or holy text.
Millions of atheists worldwide are evidence that this notion is falacy.
I don`t too much anymore as my time is pretty scarce with three kids a job and life to take care of.YmirGF said:Have you ever done any kind of mediation?
My meditation pretty much consisted of sitting on an old rock pier about a 100 yards out into the Guf of Mexico late at night just pondering the world around me while watching the the stars in the sky and the sharks circling at my feet.
It was only 100 yards from shore but late at night it seemed as if I were sitting alone in the midst of the sea.
Haven`t been able to get there in awhile.
Not since I was a kid, when I was 12-13 I was into Tae Kwan DoHave you ever done any form of martial arts training?
I`d make more time, there never seems to be enough time.If there was one thing you could change in your life, what would it be?
I voted for Kerry but I really felt like I had no real choices at all.c0da2006 said:Now back to the actual topic of the post! Who did you vote for in the US presidential elections? Kerry or Bush? And (yes, this is sort of about Linwood's atheism), was your decision influenced by Bushes comment about "god telling him to invade Iraq"?
I don`t like Kerry, he was simply the least of two evils.
Honestly I don`t see any "real" choices for me in either party at this time.
It`s depressing.
Yes, George Bushes repeated statements about how his faith guides his decisions is one of a plethora of reasons I voted against him.
I think the past 6 years is a good example of how wrong a leader can go when he`s led by his faith and not his own thoughts, whether that is faith in god or a faith in those around him.
