THINGS DO NOT "MAGICALLY" APPEAR OUT OF NOWHERE.

...except in the spiritual realm

1.- You don't must to take all that bible says so literally, the bible is a hard text and is kinda hard to understand.

2.- Free will man, free will.

Yeah, when reading bible you have to pray for understanding to the parts which you can't figure out on your own.

Why did he create worms that specifically live in your eyes and blind you?

Leandro?

 

[Swabs]

You have the answers to everything don't you

Not dinosaurs. Oh.... Thats right, they "didn't exist"

Sorry, but you believe a man walked on water, shared a few fish with thousands of people AND rose from dead. Yet you're talking about "magic" ?

NOBODY can truely say they know how the universe came to be. But I would much rather believe in theorys based on science and evidence than "oh, a magical god made it all in 6 days hooray!"

The beauty of religious mania is that it has the power to explain everything. Once God (or Satan) is accepted as the first cause of everything which happens in the mortal world, nothing is left to chance...logic can be happily tossed out the window

 

[Virtuoosi]

God gives them to me. He sometimes doesn't want to answer so that you have to do it on your own to get the answer. The most important thing is to try to live by his word.

 

[SteveAwesome]

damnit, its completely possible to balance science and faith (in completely OBVIOUS ways)...people who are one sided just CANNOT make a convincing argument.

That's called faith.

 

[Virtuoosi]

No body asked me about the dinosaurs. But I think that they did exist.

 

[Undefined]

What are your views about Jehovah's Witnesses or Mormons?


Also, this is just for fun:

It is worse than I thought!

That's right

 

[Swabs]

That's called faith.

Or hypocrisy.

Oh and this so called "balancing of science and religion" is a laughing stock. The way that christians nowadays are having to alter their beliefs to fit in with science "Oh, there were other poeple outside the garden of eden... yeah... that sounds about right"

I was referring to how atheists don't believe in magic, when "energy" is merely another name for "magic"

Please, he doesn't want to give out answers just like that if you don't believe at him at atll. If you really wanna know, you ask him yourself.

 

[The Poona of Peshwa]

Did dinosaurs exist 6,000 years ago, or 65,000,000?

 

[The Nerevarine]

Or hypocrisy.

So it be.

I worship at the church of Shadeg

who the fuck really knows? Man's "dating" techniques were based off a numerical system that *they* created. So who really knows how accurate they are.

1.- You don't must to take all that bible says so literally, the bible is a hard text and is kinda hard to understand.

2.- Free will man, free will.

1. Because he made everything he wanted to. Bible just says that he used the 7th day to rest, and look on everything that he created. It wasn't about the NEED to rest.

2.It's your own choise whether you want to believe or not. Hes not a tyran soo..
He lets you do what you want, and loves you. Only by then when you do against his word and do not regret it.

Cool. That indeed gave me some insight.
