Society & Culture - 7 July 2006

Atheists, as I said before, what if the doctors said that you or someone you loved had a horrible disease and you only had a few days left to live---what would you do? Would you seriously just sit back and think "Gee, I guess there's nothing to do about it"? You seriously would not be praying to God, the One who created you, to heal you? What a sad way to live thinking there is no hope and nobody to help you in your problems.

Everything else that I can think of has some fundamental and observable basis for its belief. If not for reasoning, more people would still believe that some fat jolly guys plummets down their chimney every winter. So why do fundamental theists still believe the God story with absolutely no evidence?

I think it's called "Plank chit" or something. I want to know if anyone has called spirits by using a sequence of coins and candles or something like that.

I would love to learn about it. If you know of any authentic resources which provide information about the same, I would be glad.

I am so sick of turning on the T.V. and seeing people getting killed by stray bullets.My best friend got killed in 94 and I think it sucks for someone to walk up to you put a bullet in your head & you die and they are free.Why would God give these monsters that joy and power to kill & be free doing all the things the person they killed should have the right to do.

lest they become like us, was he just kidding around or did he not mean that he didn't want humans to become gods?

Now according to their religion their god gave man free will over the planet and whatnot. So now that there is more evidence than a stack of a thousand Bibles that man has used his free will to decimate the planet and cause the calamity of global warming, but the "religious right" refuses to believe it. Why wouldn't these people want to use their free will to do something about it? Wouldn't it be a sin to not try to help stop global warming from potentially killing millions of people?

So this so called creator made the universe in 6 god days, but is a god day the same as an earth day, or is it a universe day, or is it a multiverse day? A multiverse day would take billions of earth years to complete. Suppose that god created the rules of science and created the multiverse to follow the rules. Why would he create an evolving multiverse and have one species that didn't have evolutionary traits? After all if evolution isn't true, then how does a christian explain viral mutation?

I've been told that there is a God because if there wasn't, how could things exist? Why can't people accept that perhaps existence itself does not require a creator or an origin?

If China and N. Korea attacked us, this could be the end for us. Hopefully Christianity will be banned and gay people will be murdered. That would be great. Dont you think? Just joking. No i'm not. Yes, I am. No I'm not. Yes I am

Now I don't just mean the HBO series. What do I mean is, can polygamy be a functional model for marriage? Not only do I believe it is possible to love more than one person at once but I believe it is also possible to be faithful within the group as well as to co-share financial responsibility. Obviously there are complications that could arise such as jealousies and the splitting up assets if any do divorce the group. But how can we bar what we do not understand? Most of us have grown up being taught polygamy is wrong. We might not agree or chose to live in a different manner, but shouldn't it at least be legally allowed, else we are only legislating morality? As long as no ones rights are being violated I say, let it be tolerated.

My fiance and I have decided to change our lives and be born again. We are now both living for GOD, (a saved life) I know when you convert your life to Christ you're supposed to follow the 10 commandments. One being thall shall not fornicate!!!! It is so hard for the both of us, everytime we slip up we both feel guilty and there we are again praying to GOD for forgiveness. We don't live together, and we always say what we must stop doing in order for this to stop but we won't follow what we say we must do. We're not getting married until a year from now, I just don't want to keep letting GOD down. Please Give Us Some Advice...

No disrespect but please only believers respond, as this is a serious matter!!!
