OK, so you believe one of those 2 (no God) options and you laugh at the people who believe in God.Is that a fair conclusion?And you admit that to believe either of those 2 (no God) options requires belief?

Quote (kejonn @ Sep. 12 2008,12:10)Why don't people here ignore people like Stu and I? We can't go into the “Believer's Section”.I agree that people could and should in some cases ignore you and that would even serve a better purpose if they did. But I personally am not offended by you guys and so will debate/talk from time to time. Most of the…[Read more]

KJ, there is a difference between mocking and testing or challenging. For that reason the teachings will stay.Mocking involves making fun of God or those that believe in him. Testing and challenging involves looking at proof whether that be scientific, scriptural, or whatever else proof there may be.It's not even a fine line because the defining…[Read more]

I take slides and have a high end scanner at home.I license my images and they have been used quite extensively.I see them in the most unlikely of places sometimes.Yes New Zealand is beautiful, but I have a soft spot for Australia too.A few years ago I wanted to go to Alice Springs and I had already booked a ticket to Sydney. But Ansett went out…[Read more]

Quote (kejonn @ Sep. 12 2008,09:35)Odd, but I do those things. Sadly, you see challenges against the bible as personal affronts. It is a book and not your god.KJ, there is a difference between mocking and challenging. A big difference.

Sorry KJ, but anyone who goes to someone's place and persecutes their beliefs and gets satisfaction in doing so has a problem inside. Outward signs only show what is in the heart.

Ha, your logic is as follows: That something came from nothing, or that something has always existed in various forms with the latest iteration being the cosmos.This is your logic Stu. Correct me if I am wrong.Which one is it?

Quote (Stu @ Sep. 12 2008,07:09)Your assertion about intelligence is not supported there. Can you reference any research for it?It is not hard to observe.You will in your everyday life meet people who believe in God and those who don't. They range in all shapes and sizes, IQs, and job descriptions from labourers to CEOs.You can observe such…[Read more]

I did a walk at night once under a full moon to the top of a volcano in New Zealand.I slept for a few hours at the top and woke up freezing and covered in volcanic sand. But it was worth it coz I got this pic fist thing in the morning. It clouded over less then one hour later.I slept near the edge of the lake.I also did the same walk in Spring…[Read more]

I have a question Stu.What must I believe in order to be converted to atheism. Will believing that something can come from nothing qualify? Or will believing that  an inanimate something has always existed but has been transforming for all eternity with the latest phase becoming the cosmos including galaxies, atoms, and bananas, do it?Just…[Read more]

Quote (WorshippingJesus @ Sep. 11 2008,22:59)Yeshua taught men to believe in the scriptures and in his words. Men will always reject and criticize the written scriptures.

Quote (kejonn @ Sep. 10 2008,02:37)Who cares what you think of me? I don't. You aren't the first Christian who has thought poorly of me for “leaving the faith” nor will you be the last. If I cared about what you thought about me, I'd come back to the fold. Too bad such tactics don't work with people who have been set free from close-minded, blind…[Read more]

Even if Einsteins God didn't roll dice, nor did Newtons. But Newtons God was personal.So if 2 brilliant persons can have differing opinions on God, then what does that prove?It proves that intelligence is not at play here. Rather it is insight.Insight is the ability to see within. Not all have it. Some of the most brilliant minds can also be…[Read more]
