A question and answer forum much like this. We were a rather close knit community and I miss it. If you answer this, please tell your Yahoo friends about this question because I really want to find people who remember KnowPost. If you remember it, what memories do you have of it? Any memories of the founder clay?

If we live in a vast multiverse populated with enumerable universes that contain no life and only a handful that do, would not this be evidence that there is no intelligent designer?

If an intelligent designer did exist wouldn't he have just made one universe that had everything contained in the multiverse without the unpopulated universes that exist in the multiverse?

Isn't it amazing how many so called Christians in here claim they are going to heaven to be with Christ , when in most of their questions and answers their tongue is full of hate , bitterness and outright lies about others , which proves a bad heart condition.

Luke 6:45 New American Standard Bible (©1995)
"The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth what is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure brings forth what is evil; for his mouth speaks from that which fills his heart.


The question is :

Do you really think Jesus would want you guys around ?

Are you really so mislead that you think there can be a reward like that for people like you ?

I have read Saint Augustine and many philosophers concerning their views on free will. I am not looking for any biblical answers for free will unless it has its basis in logic. I have a profound argument against free will but I am reluctant to share it with readers because of what harm it may cause for some people who have fragile belief systems.

Is it not lonely and empty to feel as though you're just an accident and completely unimportant to this life. We all need boundaries as you know, especially children otherwise they turned into thugs and criminals. So is it not true if you chose not to believe in our Creator that you have no boundaries and do whatever your instincts tells you to do? Isn't it sad?

This morning I received the first card I've had since Christmas 2001 ! What a lovely surprise !! From a caring and kind Canadian dragon, a special person (I know we arent allowed to post names)

My relatives in Norway used to send beautiful cards, now they email - and I realized I dont even have addresses anymore for them, or for any of my friends. Just email addresses.

I know everyone is busy at this time of the year, but I think our society has lost something meaningful. I know my friend in Washington spends a lot of time picking out her email card, and she even buys them ! Most of us make do with the free ones, and its nice to get them too, but its still not the same is it?

Myth
1. a traditional or legendary story, usually concerning some being or hero or event, with or without a determinable basis of fact or a natural explanation, esp. one that is concerned with deities or demigods and explains some practice, rite, or phenomenon of nature.
2. stories or matter of this kind: realm of myth.
3. any invented story, idea, or concept: His account of the event is pure myth.
4. an imaginary or fictitious thing or person.
5. an unproved or false collective belief that is used to justify a social institution

The bible 100% fits this description. My question to you is I'm sure what the Greeks believed in seems silly to you as it does to me. Why is your story the truth and theirs fake? What proof do you have that they're not right and your story is? Please no bible passages or stupid short answers praising god because that just makes you look like a ignorant person and will further prove my point. My Christian GF and I discussed this last night

I find that many religious people seem unable to detatch the idea of morality from the teachings/rules of their religious faith.
Why is it so hard to believe that some people can be decent and in fact very moral without the bribery of 'heaven' or salvation or something like that. My question is - is there something in the bible that distinctly tells them that you can't be moral if you don't believe in god?

Just wondering because I often see a knee-jerk reaction from very religious people that automatically equates atheism with immorality. It stinks! Many non-believers are just as giving, kind, decent and "christian-acting" as those who hypocritically go to church but never do a good deed in their lives.
Anyone want to share thoughts on the matter?

Symbols and motifs associated with the modern Christmas are derived from traditional pagan Yule celebrations. Burning the Yule log, decorating Christmas trees, eating of ham, hanging of boughs, holly, mistletoe, etc. are all historically practices associated with Yule. When the Christianization of the pagans began, missionaries found it convenient to provide a Christian reinterpretation of popular pagan holidays such as Yule and allow the celebrations themselves to go on largely unchanged, versus trying to confront and suppress them.

Pope Gregory suggested that converting "heathens" would go easier if they were allowed to retain the outward forms of their traditional pagan practices and traditions, while recasting those traditions spiritually towards the Christian God instead of to their pagan "devils".

Why do Christians persist in denying the historical facts that this is in fact a pagan holiday?

My company is going through some restructuring, and some people are losing their jobs. There are some metros in my office, but none of them are affected.

Are they protected by HR laws? When the time comes to give a promotion, is it possible that I will get passed over by somebody who is no more qualified than me, just because they are a metrosexual and it would look better for my company's diversity profile?
