Society & Culture - 17 July 2006

The only proof of gods are beliefs and books written based on beliefs. There is no definitive evidence of the supernatural. If there were, then there would be no such thing as an atheist. So how do you help believers understand what you already know?

Does the fact that your knowledge is based only on belief bother you?

I keep getting asked why do I care what other people believe, just let them believe. I'm trying to open some minds to the atheist way of thinking or at least help people to understand where we're coming from. The only thing that would stop me is if my U.S government would honor the complete seperation of church and state including closing the loophole that says that endorsing a god is different than endorsing a religion. Take "In god we trust" off our money, "Under god" out of our pledge for a start. Then end Bush's faith based initiative which uses my tax dollars to fund church social programs.

The burden of proof is on the claimant, believers make the claims

I'm a blond, and I want to to date Ramon who has brown hair, but my pastor says it is wrong because it is miscegenation.
He says that people with different hair colors shouldn't free-mix., and that I am letting down the master race.

Is that true? Will I go to hell?

Do you really beleive that Ghandi (not a Christian, but a compassionate, peace loving man) go to hell while a cold blooded murderer who might whisper the name Jesus in his last hour go to heaven? Is this what you beleive? Are there any Christians out there who don't beleive this?

That God created the Universe just for our tiny planet and it's human beings. That no other life in the Universe matters, even if it's everywhere. Doesn't that seem ignorant and even arrogant?

(and don't quote the Bible. Answer this on your own with your own mind)

The full text of John 1:18 reads, "No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him."

Some Christians claim that Jesus was god, and he sure seemed visible most of the time in the gospel mythologies.
Also, A number of Bible passages indicate that prophets saw God (Genesis 17:1; 18:1; 26:2; Genesis 32:30; 48:3; Genesis 33:11; Exodus 24:9-11; Joshua 5:13-15; Isaiah 6:1; Matthew 11:27; John 220:28; Acts 7:55-56; 1 Corinthians 15:1-8; 3 John 11; Revelation 1:17-18).

So which part of the bible is gospel truth?

I am asking for my boyfriend. He has heard that Corrie Ten Boone pointed to Northwest Arkansas and asked Billy Graham where that was. She said she saw a light coming out of it like a revival would happen there.

I was sitting in my living room watching TV and I got very thirsty. I got up to get a glass of water and on my way back to the livingroom I saw a naked midget run across the hallway to another room. I was very confused at what I saw and and with my full glass of water in hand I went to the room i saw the midget run into. when I looked in the room I saw nothing out of the ordinary, everything seemed perfectly normal. Except a few things, well in the corner of the room there was a naked midget standing there and he looked like he was all lathered up from my shaving cream. the midget stood there holding a baseball bat and he had a coach's whistle in his mouth. he started to blow the whistle as hard as he could and he started to run at me with the bat. I got very scared and when I tried to leave the room I was abruptly stopped by 2 more midgets on horseback, these midgets were dress up like rodeo clowns and spoke only Japanese to me.. god I was scared so I pulled out a pair
