Looking at an automobile I can see by its complexity, that it didn't just happen, it was created. Taking into perspective that the Earth alone, not the entire universe, is infinitely more complex; it seems to reason that it must have also been created by an intelligent force. Far more intelligent than us. Just looking at the systems and sub-systems that keep everything in order, we have an ecosystem that is in balance without our inteference obviously. Mathmatical laws can be formulated and results reproduced from these laws.
How can a case be made that there is not an intelligent creator behind all of this? I'm not referring to any God or deity. I'm not using the bible in my argument. Can you give me a case that stands on its own merit that there is no creator?

Contradikshun #100 Was baby Jesus's life threatened in Jerusalem? (a) Yes, so Joseph fled with him to Egypt and stayed there until Herod died (Matthew 2:13 - 23). (b) No. The family fled nowhere. They calmly presented the child at the Jerusalem temple according to the Jewish customs and returned to Galilee (Luke 2:21-40).

Contradikshun #101 When Jesus walked on water how did the disciples respond? (a) They worshiped him, saying, "Truly you are the Son of God" (Matthew 14:33). (b) "They were utterly astounded, for they did not understand about the loaves, but their hearts were hardened" (Mark 6:51-52).

I have the rest of them if your are interested.

How many retard profiles posting retard questions do we need. I thought one was just fine and funny. But 3 is a little much, and is starting to get annoying real fast. Especially when the last 2 arn't even funny. So how many more do we need?

Format should be like this:

1: Name of religion

2: Why you chose it.

3: Information supporting your reasoning



I'll start with mine

1: Atheisticaly Agnostic

2: I don't believe in Angels, Ghosts, and Goblins. Therefore, I don't believe in an institution that proports to "represent" a belief in a faith that supports those who do.

3: Gravity's existance is something I can't see but I can prove exists with phyical tests. So far, I have never seen validation by any organized religion's proof that does demonstrate anything more than faith is required.

Scientologists (Which I am not) believe that Xenu sent souls to a volcano then blew it up with Hydrogen bombs. I think it’s funny and ridiculous.

But why do Christians (Which I am not) poke fun at it? They believe the world was created in 7 days, the world was flooded in 30 days. Who are you to make fun of any religion when you believe there is a Man and his son floating around in a mythical place and his enemy lives in a hot scary place with his minions and lava and such. I think the bible is one of if not the biggest Sci-Fi book I have ever read.

Please help me to understand what makes your beliefs so much better than anyone elses...

A contradiction that really is a contradiction, that is. What could you write in the bible that could not be resolved?

Even if you assume that they all have resolutions, which you do, why are there so many things that NEED resolutions. Why are there so many things that appear to be contradictions?

One person is even portraying himself as retarded. Others feel self confident by posting questions that have nothing to do with spiritual or religion. As you see, SATAN does anything he can to draw your attention away. The book of Revelations talks about an TV, whoops, I meant to say IMAGE, that we would all worship.

Both Jesus AND the Catholic Church have a lot of explaining to do? Pictures don't lie.
