Both believers and non-believers seem to need to put subtle digs at the other side.
Non-believers in WHAT ?
Is there an inherent difference between 'believers' and 'non-believers' ?

I'm noticing people using Jihad in non-religious contexts like

" Nancy Grace was again on her personal jihad in her interview yesterday..."
or
" The people who are elimanating trans fat in resturaunts are just on their personal jihad, next they will try to ban sugar!"

I'm wondering if anyone else noticed this LOL.

I'm an atheist. And sometimes I ask myself what would I do if I found an evidence that God indeed exists. I know I would for sure lost any interest in my life on earth. I would not care about stupid things like going out, dating, work, etc. I'd be spending 100% of my time praying, talking to God. NOT BECAUSE I THINK I'M REQUIRED TO. Simply because that's the only thing I'd be interested in. I mean come on, watching TV or communicating with the creator of the Universe who will give me eternal life full of pleasures nobody can imagine, tough choice! It's like having a choice between watching paint dry and having sex, yeah sure I could watch paint dry... No! And don't give me that "we are just mere mortals" BS, it is just another way of saying "I do not really believe". If you truly believed you would give up everything, and spend every moment of your life praying and thinking about meeting God. I know I would.

Christians believe Jesus said I am the way, the truth and the life. nobody comes to the father but by me.

Most other religions believe only theirs is the correct choice.

Now given the number of religions over the history of the world this leaves a lot more people wrong than what would be right, if any atall was to be 'right'.

So that means theres currently a lot more souls burning away in the bowels of hell than the small number of people who are now residing in heaven.


So my question is, if god loves you so much why does he send most of you to hell?

Do you believe we as people should continue with the Ideas of Survival of the Fittest, and Natural Selection ? Should we close hospitals, put the elderly out to pasture. Are we not, by assisting the weak, poisoning our race ? If you wish to discuss, feel free.


( side note ) If you take a highschool, split them into physically Strongest and weakest (jocks to nerds). It's kind of ironic that the weakest would end up being scientists.

'Archaeologists found that buildings used to bury the dead were burned by a fire that started on the roof.
What would cause every structure in the cemetery to be destroyed in this way? The answer to the mystery is found in the Bible. "Then the Lord rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah -- from the Lord out of the heavens" (Genesis 19:24).'

If all physical evidence of all the religious teachings(books, etc.) disappeared, and all the memory of any religious doctrines were erased from every single person's memory in the same day, how long would it take before a new religion was created?

breasts like fruit; He can't sleep for jealousy. This leads to his downfall." Sutta Nipata 110

A person lust can and will eventually lead to his or her downfall. Buddha would tell us to live with what we have, not craving, and being thankful for what we have, and to share in the joy of others.

What would (your name) do ?

We had Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel et. al. before the Saviour came. Where is it written that Jesus did away with the need for prophets to lead His people?

I've read that if you put bacteria to fungi most will die, but the ones that live produce offspring that resist the bacteria, thus evolution. Before we had animal doctors, if a dog has puppies, all of them were subjected to the same virus' and deseases, the geneticly weaker pups would die while the strong lived, and make stronger pups. Is that evolution, or were the pups that lived just geneticlly stronger? Also if I inherit a stronger tolerance for the effects of alcohol and tabaco from my mother, did I evolve?

Maybe God is a Man like us, but that what is transparent and is all power is the spirit, maybe God Send the HOLY SPIRIT in the form of a dove to Christ.
Proverbs: Chapter 8 verse 22-33:

22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.
23 I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was.
24 When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor athe highest part of the dust of the world.
27 When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
30 Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
32 Now therefore hearken unto me, O ye children: for blessed are they that keep my ways.
33 Hear instruction, and be wise, and refuse it not.
