I don't see not being christian as a risk, i see it as a choice.
It appears you can't include religion in anythnig without offending someone, which kinda sucks. People should be open minded and not get jumpy unless there's a direct attack on their religion.
You werent attacking my relegion by saying I cant prove Gods real... Radix wasnt attacking either when he said the bible is a book of faiy tales. You just believe what you want Im tired of talking to lost hopeless souls.
Sheesh, you guys are really going at it. Some people go have a thing called sleep and lives you know.
Yami:
Your the retard cussing then sayin to read the bible. You read the bible!
Stop cussing and saying the bible in the same sentence.
You sound like an anti-christ and a hypocrite. You should follow your own advise.
So I break a few rules you jackass. Nobody is perfect. At least I do the christian thing and admit that I make mistakes. Now, your obviously sticking your foot in your mouth, hold on.
Yami: A book of fairy tales!
How are you gonna sit here and tell me that I shouldn't swear, and your calling the whole thing just one big fairy tale? It's called history smart guy.
EvisceratoR:I think it's pretty flawed to say the men who wrote the bible had their info directly from god when you can't prove it.
The way Yami says it sounds wrong. A basic christian belief is that The bible was written by god trough man. Sounds a little odd, but how would man predict the future? Read through the bible, and 100% of all predictions have come true, such as the prediction of credit cards in revelation.
Radix: Take fish. Take noah's flood. It's generally agreed that noah couldn't have taken two of every fish aboard (not only is there no mention of it; it would have been technologically impossible for him), so it's taken that all the fish in the world survived the flood because hey, they're fish, right? Fishies looove water.
However, he have both freshwater and saltwater fish. While some species can survive varying salinity, not all can. If there was a flood, we should not have any fish today that can't survive in both salt and fresh water.
Say what you want about it, but this event actually happend. Even if you aren't christian, look at all other text and they all have a flood story. Even some Native American writings and African and all sorts of stuff. Pretty well known for a fairy tale huh?
EvisceratoR:i think it's funny how you say god exists and that what's in the bible is what he said when you can't prove it.
He's got a point there. Christians have a thing called faith. But most of the major reseachers that research the evolutionary theory end up in the end having to be created by something. Well lets see, humans came from monkeys, monkeys came from an ameoba, and an ameoba came from...? Where? The big bang? You have more of a chance of a torando going through a junkyard and making a perfectly constructed airplane than of that happening.
Radix:There are thousands of species of fish. If I kill all the whiting, then a hundred years later there still will not be any whiting. If all the fish that cannot survive varying salinity levels are exposed to a flood of homogeneous water, all these fish will die. There should therefore not be any such fish today. Yet there are.
Compare these things to humans. We call different colors and styles species of fish, but then we have the same thing in humans. Blacks, Whites, Asians, Red Heads, Blonds.
Nattress:let him have his silly beliefs and leave it be.
Just wondering, what do you believe in?
Yami:Heh, Im stupid Radix... Tell me this what if my fairy tale is right and when you die and go to hell. Why would anyone take a risk not to be a Christian. Simply because a man said a theory that you could fathem more. Your the retarded fool doomed and damned to a devils hell. No matter how smart you think you are.
You tell me swearing is bad. At least I'm not telling all of them to go to hell.
EvisceratoR:It appears you can't include religion in anythnig without offending someone, which kinda sucks. People should be open minded and not get jumpy unless there's a direct attack on their religion.
Yeah I got kinda jumpy before, but like I said, I don't like it being compared with brainwashing. But don't talk about open mindedness. People are open and close minded in many sorts of ways so you can't call anyone open or close minded.
Anyways, back to brainwashing. People seem to think that christians are brainwashing everyone, but thats simply not true. Go do some research on subliminal messages and see how much are geared towards satanism and stuff. So how do you know that if your opinions are really your own? It's kinda creepy.
DUDE GILGA READ THE WHOLE STORY RADIX CALLED THE BIBLE A BOOK OF FAIRY TALES I WAS SAYIN THAT AND TRYING TO PROVING HIM WRONG. AND IF YOU DONT BELIEVE IN GOD THEN YOU ARE GOIN TO HELL THATS JUST THE TRUTH IM NOT TELLING HIM TO GO TO HELL. I TOLD THE TRUTH SAYIN THATS WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THEY DONT WAKE UP.
You shouldn't try to scare people into the religeon, sheesh. What are you, catholic? If your trying to tell people about the religeon, the last thing you want to say is "Your going to hell!"
If your trying to prove him wrong, don't go and say "Yeah, in my book of fairy tales..." You need to let us actually know that's not what you believe. On the internet, we are robbed of basic speach techniques, such as speed, tone, pauses, and spellcheck. How was I supposed to know you were being sarcastic.
Your obviously trying to convert these two, but your going at it all wrong. From what you are saying, I wouldn't listen to you either, so your obviously taking a step backwards. Let's just calm down, and give it a rest. I'm sure that if you were a good christian, you would realize that God will handle it, and that right now your trying to do it for yourself, not God. So can we all get along now?
on page 6
Radix said "My 'problem' is that I would rather trust the sum of human knowledge than kicking civilisation back four hundred years because an ancient book of fairytales tells us to."
So if it was a book that only exists because the people who wrote it wanted to create a religion, so they could believe that they will live after death, it would be alright?
You will not convert anyone TALKING LIKE THIS! Your religion is not needed here. Oh, and if I'm going to hell, at least I won't be in the same place as you fovever...
i believe that if i eventually end up having to face up to god, he'll appreciate the fact that i spent my life trying to be a good person and fair to others, and his creations (i call them his creations cuz if i was facing up to him, that would mean he exists) more than how much i believed in him. Besides, if god is such a loving person (Jesus supposedly loves us all, so god must do so too), he would forgive me for not believing in him.
First off, I didn't know this would lead into nine pages!
In response to those people from page 6: I feel that there is a God. The Exosist (spelled wrong, I know, shut up) is a true story. The only thing that protected that kid (who was really a boy, not a girl ) was a priest, a Bible, and a cross. My Priest filmed an exosisem (shut up), and it was really creepy. Again, a Priest, a Bible, and a Cross protected this lady.
TO THE JINGLE JAIL WITH THE NON BELIVER!
Fine Garbage since 2003.
CURRENT PROJECT:
-Paying off a massive amount of debt in college loans.
-Working in television.
i personally think it was the belief in getting the patient well that helped, and something in the prist's mind helped. Not a cross and whatever.
Actually i believe in god, in my own strange way. I don't believe there's some entity who's the controller of stuff. I think that maybe an alien race thought it would be fun to create a little experiment so they created the planets n stuff which resulted in lots of things, and eventually humans.
I've always dreamed of making a computer program that would have single celled organisms to begin with, and then make them evolve and see what happens.
So in conclusion, i think humans (and every other species) is a kind of a robot because living things are too complicated to have come out of nothing.
Jesus loves everyone if you dont love him he wont forgive you. If you dont repent. Plus if everybody repent when they died no one would go to hell. You can be a good person ,but if you dont believe in God why would he forgive someone who turn his back to his face. I didnt mean to be mean but when someone spits at God I wont let them get away with it without saying something.
Jesus answered, " I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.
John 3:5
I think that mankind is a freak happening, that we only exist because on this one planet, the things needed to create life happened by pure luck.

"You have more of a chance of a torando going through a junkyard and making a perfectly constructed airplane than of that happening."
are you a Critchon fan!?
someone asked me what i believe in. the answer is nothing. i'm comfortable with mortality and i don't need farty beliefs to cushion the harsh fact that i'm going to die. something else: if, as a Christian, you use the "well what made the Amoeba then?!" argument, you're just digging yourself a hole, because we can ask the samre thing of God: where did God come from? to which i always get some bollocks like "God is infinite", or "God transcends time". what was he doing before he made the universe then? sat on his arse playing marbles?
yami, you're an idiot. i like Eviscerator's argument - if we live our lives as good people, is God going to give a shit if we didn't believe in him? as he is supposed to be all-loving, i reckon i stand a good chance of being forgiven in the unlikely event that i'm proven wrong. and even if i'm not forgiven, hell doesn't sound like such a bad place. at least there won't be any Christians there.
