So this crazed madman, for the laugh, let's say he's an athiest democrat (tee hee!) comes into your house and points a gun at your spouse and kids or partner, whatever, someone you love deeply.

Now he's crazy, and he WILL do it, and he threatens to shoot them all (typical american gun culture, tut tut.) if you don't renounce god.

DO you let your family die for the sake of just saying the words "I do not believe in God", even if you don't mean it?

Suppose I talk to a priest who says X, and I talk to a scientist who says Y. The next week, I talk to the priest again, and he says X again; but when I talk to the scientist again, he says Z. Obviously, the scientist was either wrong the first time, wrong the second time, or wrong both times!

With that in mind, doesn't it make more sense to trust the priest, who is either right 100% of the time or wrong 100% of the time, than to trust the scientist whose ideas are always changing based on the evidence?

In other words, isn't someone's trustworthiness based on how often he changes his mind, rather than how much evidence is on his side?

It seems that the Conservative Christian follows Moses, while the Liberal Christian follows Jesus. Moses is focused on the Law, while Jesus is focused on the Spirit. Moses was into punishment, while Jesus was into forgiveness. Moses advocated violence, while Jesus advocated non violence. And so on...

Pro Life people accuse the pro choice people of being murderers every day. Yet the Constitution, Supreme Court and the Bible all say that the pro life side is wrong.
However, when I post proof that the pro life ideal leads to the death of millions of children --- which really could be called murder--- Yahoo does not post the question. This is clearly a case of Yahoo being biased toward the pro life propaganda.
What can we do?

I think the Atheists/Agnostics should be in charge of the schools and libraries, but I kinda hope the Wiccans are in charge of the landscaping. What all would you like to do?

FIRST OFF: I'm not trying to prove anything. If you're going to pick at the logic you'd be doing the very thing the quote talks about.

Tell me your thoughts

"But first consider this. If a person opposes even the possibility of there being a God, then any evidence can be rationalized or explained away. It is like if someone refuses to believe that people have walked on the moon, then no amount of information is going to change their thinking. Photographs of astronauts walking on the moon, interviews with the astronauts, moon rocks...all the evidence would be worthless, because the person has already concluded that people cannot go to the moon."

Is the clouds heaven ?

Some times when I answer a question or as a question that relates to evolution, I use info from several different web sites that show evolution is incorrect.

Often I get a response that says they do not believe the info because it came from a biased site (against evolution).

I am quite sure they say this just because they do not want to admit that evolution is wrong (and God is right).

So my question is - what non-biased sites disprove evolution?

In case my question isn't clear:

If you were to die today, do you think God would accept you into heaven based on the condition of your relationship with him?

A homophobe wrote a question stating that the bible was the truth, the "word of God".

I wrote that she would not know the word of God If He hit her in the head with it, and I pray that He does.

She sent me this e-mail:

"You basically bashed my question, yet you told me that you would pray for me. If you believe in prayer why don't you believe in the Bible? "


So tell me, do only christians have the exclusive right to pray?
