Religion & Spirituality - 25 August 2006

What does it tell us, as non-fundamentalists, about fundamentalists who say, "see scientists always changing their mind, what does that tell you" similar to the discussion regarding evolution, where fundamentalists say "see, they are changing their mind, and the data/Theory is always changing".

I had a discussion about a dinosaur in instant message, and I explained there was a dinosaur 70 million years ago that had cancer, thus making a literal interpretation of Genesis impossible, since the first homo sapiens don't show up until 300,000 years ago.

I was asked a series of questions, equivalent of "His Noodly Appendage plays with the machine." She said "the water was purer before the fall of man". At that point I realized, this is not a science discussion any more.

What do the views of fundamentalists regarding the ongoing debates within science, that these debates show "they don't know"; teach us about their own world view?

It has to be true because this is what Atheists keep telling us and we know that Atheists are the only ones who have brains. With that being said and admitted, I would like a list of Colleges that were established by Atheists in the U.S. While at it, I would like a list of the greatest inventors and of those who have advanced the medical profession and the field of science the most of whom were Atheists. A list of Hospitals and benevolent institutions that were established by Atheists would also be welcomed. After having done so, lets compare the list with the accomplishments of Christians against those of Atheists. The question is, overall which of the two have been more beneficial to mankind in the above list, Christians or Atheists?

Why then are some children born with deformities through complete randomness? Why do people develop cancers that many are also completely random. There is a huge list of minor imperfections that are natural to our bodies. Also why would we have vestigial organs such as the appendix, or in some peoples' cases, the brain? LOL! Wouldn't these imperfections point towards a non-intelligent method of creation?

We can't see the Big Bang, but we can see it's results. We can't see evolution, but it left it's fingerprints on the DNA of every living thing. It took a while to tell the earth wasn't flat...it took a new perspective and discarding some old ideas to see it. That was fun!

I'm complete christian but there's this sight called monolithgraphics.com that I go to all the time and "The Gothic Tarot"
is an easy way to get a lot of Joseph Vargo's prints but I don't just want it for show. I also want it for fun so I can tell my friends' fortune. You know? So I wonder, is it still satanic?

It started out innocently enough. I began to think at parties now and
then -- just to loosen up. Inevitably, though, one thought led to
another, and soon I was more than just a social thinker. I began to
think alone -- "to relax," I told myself -- but I knew it wasn't true.
Thinking became more and more important to me, and finally I was
thinking all the time.

That was when things began to sour at home. One evening I turned off the TV and asked my wife about the meaning of life. She spent that night at her mother's. I began to think on the job. I knew that thinking and
employment don't mix, but I couldn't help myself.

I began to avoid friends at lunchtime so I could read Thoreau, Muir,
Confucius and Kafka. I would return to the office dizzied and confused, asking, "What is it exactly we are doing here?"

One day the boss called me in. He said, "Listen, I like you, and it
hurts me to say this, but your thinking has become a real problem.

Can you really have the best of both worlds? I know that there are Jews for Jesus. But are there also Muslims who believe that Christ is the son of God and is their Savior?
