does anyone honestly think he would know anything about god or any other kind of modern god today? Say the person somehow survives and we are somehow able to communicate with him, do you think he'll know about god and all his miracles?

No, so thats why I say people are only religious because their parents are.

No you say? so if you were born into an Atheist family would you still belive in god? No

edit* Stop being pissants and actually try to formulate a real answer, unlike one being, "god is everywhere you tool."

I want a real answer from you people. Really think deep down, if you can. You proabably cant though.

Being smarter than 99% of the world sucks. They dont give real answers.

Serious answers, please. And no quoting the Bible! Circular logic does not work with me.

if you were never taught about god, or Jesus or Allah or whoever, do you think you would have come up with the idea on your own?

and in doing so, preserve Jesus' real teachings.

You go to any big-name divinity school, like Harvard or Yale, you won't find any theologians who will defend creationism. Even the Vatican supports evolution. Most theologians consider most of the Old Testament "mythish", but it's taken literally by a lot of everyday Christians.

To a certain extent, I think the fundamentalist theology is more accurate with regard to the Bible. If you're into the Bible, that is.

But why is there such a big difference between Christians you meet on the street and their leaders? It seems like the academic theologians are far more liberal.

god is a term used by many cultures but is used to represent many different beings. So by saying "I beleive in God" means that you beleive in Odin, Allah, Yahweh, Jah, Ngai, Vishnu or Shiva, Buddha and countless others.

Does your god have a name or do you beleive it is the same god that other religions praise?

I'm completely non-religious and, in fact, I don't have any type of "faith." As a scientist, I value doubt more than conviction and I'm always asking more questions than I can answer.

I don't believe in anything, not even in the "reality" around me. And not even in mathematics (no one has ever proven logically that 1 + 0 = 1). I don't trust my senses, and I wouldn't follow my instincts (they are nothing but fluctuations of the chemicals in my body).

The idea that people can believe in things for which they have absolutely no proof baffles me. I must say I think most religious people must be pretending. I just cannot fathom such a thing as "belief" or "faith."

I don't understand "hope" either. I can assess a trend to have possible positive consequences to a certain point, but the final analysis of all future branches goes beyond human capabilities. Saving a child from starving may, in the end, cause a world war.

I've noticed this makes it hard for people to be my friends.

O ye people! Fear your Lord who created you from a single soul and of its kind created its mate, and from them twain spread many men and women; and fear Allah, in Whose name you appeal to one another, and fear him particularly respecting ties of kinship. Verily, Allah watches over you.

And He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in accordance with the requirements of wisdom; and on the day when He will say, 'Be', it will be. His word is the truth, and His will be the Kingdom on the day when the trumpet will be blown. He is the Knower of the unseen and the seen. And He is the Wise, the All-Aware.

'Or created matter of any kind which appears hardest in your minds, even then shall you be raised up.' Then will they ask, 'Who shall restore us to life?' Say, 'He who created you the first time.' Still they will shake their heads at thee and say, ''When will it be?' Say, 'May be, it is nigh

Some people say God must exist, because someone had to create the universe and all matter, and the chances of life 'just happening' are slim. Well, if something had to create us, then something had to create God too, right? Or if God was 'always there'/'always in existence', then why cant you consider the fact that the universe and all matter, could also have been 'always there'/'always in existence'?

Genocide, natural disasters, war, child abuse - all these things, he ignores. Yet, he apparently busies himself working small 'miracles' - such as successful surgery and the like - for believers.

Does that make sense to you?

The Ayatollah said this on his website:

2497. It is recommended that the wet-nurse, whose services are obtained for a child, should be Shia Ithna-Asheri, sane, chaste, and good looking; and it is Makrooh for a wet-nurse to be a non-Shia Ithna-Asheri or ugly, ill-humoured or illegitimate. It is also Makrooh to entrust the child to a wet-nurse who has given birth to an illegitimate child.

So who is the one judging the woman's ugliness? The husband, the wife, the Ayatollah or maybe the baby? And what if the BABY is ugly? Can an ugly baby be breast fed by a good looking woman? Can an ugly woman breast feed her own baby? This decree from the Ayatollah raises so many questions doesn't it?
