Hi Bod,I admire your attempt to see the good in most things, but I thought that you believed that God (Allah) was the cause of everything that happens. Especially every natural occurance, like storms.

Quote (t8 @ Dec. 16 2012,20:03)It is at least somewhat interesting observing how easy delusion sets in when a person cannot free themselves from bias and hence are not open to truth.That is very interesting indeed.Ti

Quote (terraricca @ Dec. 11 2012,18:35)It is like a traveler man who make up his road map as he his traveling,and changes as the road ends,A much better idea than just sitting there the rest of your life and make apologies for the road ending.Tim

Quote (terraricca @ Dec. 09 2012,02:58)but true believers really do not care wen the end comesHi T, you sly ol' fox, I have never seen anyone try hold on to life as tenaciously as a “true believer”. Don't kid yourself, they care.Tim

Quote (t8 @ Dec. 08 2012,12:05)Science will not save your soul, no matter how much faith you put in it.Nor will belief in anything.If there is a soul to be saved, and it can be, then it will be.If not, we have no control over the outcome.Tim

Hey T8, you look like you are smiling.

Hi Stu,There is one thing that I have never quite understood concerning the theory of evolution.Do gene mutations occur only because of selection pressure that would drive such a development. Or do gene mutations occur and then just hang around until there is some need for that change, and if no need ever presents itself then the plant or animal…[Read more]

Quote (Stu @ Dec. 01 2012,05:45)You might not have to worry about your nephew but maybe worry about the reaction of his mother, judging by this in the Huffington Post.StuartThat was an interesting study stu.I also liked the video at the bottom by Neil deGrasse Tyson.Tim

Better than I deserve Seeking.Thanks for asking.Tim

You guys realize that you are only reinforcing the absurdity of what you believe to be true, don't you?Tim

That sort of thing really disturbs me for many reasons. I have a nephew with autism, and he takes everything literally.His mother is very religious and doesn't understand what some of her teachings could do to this child.Tim

T8 and lightenup,I truly do appreciate both of you , in your own way, reaching out to help.I am fine now.Tim

T8 and seekingtruth are showing a pattern of pretending that stu does not exist. This must come from an aptitude of pretending that other things do exist.Tim

Sorry AWHN, I got your name wrong.That wasn't intentional.Tim

Hi Ed,It was actually David that brought up the video, not stu.And I think David was practicing a little reverse psychology by cautioning no one else except Tim watch the video.That almost insured that other people would.Tim

Thank you All,I didn't tell my story in order to get sympathy. The video stirred up lingering resentment for faith healing charlatans in me, and the response seemed to just pour out.I am quite happy now. I remarried after a couple of years to my present wife of 30 years.Ironically I remained a Christian even after God threw me another curve ball…[Read more]
