I live in Massachusetts, I love surfing, hate the cold, and love tropical things, and I want to live in Hawaii, but I'm also white so I am worried about racism in Hawaii.

what you do in this life if you believe there is no after life why you would follow the rules, if it didn't matter wouldn't you go crazy and do everything.

The Bible, Qur'an, and other classical documents are full of contradictions and factual errors. They were written by human beings in ancient civilizations, expressing the scientific and moral speculations of their day. They do not convey the eternal word of God, but rather the yearnings of ancient tribes based on oral legends and received doctrines; as such, they are hardly relevant to all cultures and times. The Old and New Testaments are not accurate accounts of historical events. The reliability of the Old Testament is highly questionable in the events and personages it depicts; Moses, Abraham, Joseph, etc. are largely uncorroborated by historical evidence. As for the New Testament, scholarship has shown that none of its authors knew Jesus directly. The four Gospels were not written by eyewitnesses but are products of oral tradition and hearsay. There is but flimsy and contradictory evidence for the virgin birth, the healings of Jesus, and the Resurrection.

What do you think of the point he made about repression leading to objectionable behavior, using religious fundamentalists and conservatives as examples? Do you think repressing ones true self in the name of whatever will come back to bite you in the a55, so to speak?

I think God is egotistical and controlling. I do not like the feeling of being threatened that if I don't accept God I will go to hell.

judges by your religious affiliation and not by your deeds? That kind of god seems unkind and overly judgemental. That is why I as an Atheist see no real incentive to join any religion. The only one that comes close to judgement by character is Buddhism.

So anyways, to the real question, why would you want to spend your time in heaven with a god like that?

If God was as wonderful, as religious people preach, surely he would rise above being so judgmental.

Do you think that they are modern day Demon Possession, people are just not being self-controlled, or that people have true sickness? Maybe it's a balance of all three sometimes? Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

about him, etc. Why didn't he give irrefutabel evidence of his existence so that the skeptic can know?


Is skepticism a handicap since it hinders faith?

Can I get a disabled parking permit for it?

Or would that make too much sense?

do you look at the section "We have found similar questions:"? I do - and if there is a similar question I simply do not post. Is this special thing only on my system or does everyone have it for use? Because some questions are posted and reposted and reposted.

NOTE: I am not talking about LOG & FASKING questions :-)
