I would rather live in a house with air conditioning and Diet Coke in the fridge than live in a garden full of animals. Better yet, I would rather live in a Caribbean resort with air conditioning and Diet Coke.

"then he [Samson] found a fresh jawbone of a donkey...and with it he killed a thousand men," (Judges 15:15). People are always pointing to religion as a source of violence, but I think asses are the real culprit...

I hear that most Africans call evolution the white man's joke.

What are your thoughts on this?

(keep in mind that many of the tribes in Kenya claim to see dinosaurs but on a smaller scale as would have happened after the flood)

I though that what ever you do God will always forgive you then why can't he forgive Satan.

And how easy do you think it is forgive a evil person and do you think you have to forgive?

I can tell you when I met the drunk criminal who killed my 17 yr old brother years ago in his car, my human reaction at first was to hope he would die a painful death asap, but when I finally met him and he said he was sorry, it was only the love I could pull from GOD who forgives me, and allows me to forgive other's as well as the man who killed my brother..

Is it your opinion that human beings just naturally love? if we evolved as many of you think, I would say that belief would have a human biengs will, FIRST to survive (Just like in the animal kingdom) and everything else would be secondary to genetics and DNA...

Whether your Christian, Jewish, or Muslim--- what do you think happens to you right after death--- that is during the period right after you die and before judgement day?

there is alot of evidence that shows he is not real and not a whole lot that says he is real. i guess everybody needs something to believe in but why be so ignorant about it? my favorite thing to prove he is non existent is " if god created everything why are there no dinosaurs being mentioned in the bible?" and i mean that like good descriptions and not from some revised bible or a rewritten bible by some dumb church.

Humans control their own lives. How foolish is it to give up control of your life to some deity that doesn't exist?

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt." (Daniel 12:1-2)

something like, "Raaaaaaaawk!! There is no God. Raaaaaaaaawk"?

I expect more from free thinkers than childish copycatting, or the same answers over and over again. I do not answer with "Because the Bible says so." I try to explain my answers. Can't they do the same?

don't need to look them up: "And Jesus answering said, A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, which stripped him of his raiment, and wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.
31 And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.
32 And likewise a Levite, when he was at the place, came and looked on him, and passed by on the other side.
33 But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,
34 And went to him, and bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine, and set him on his own beast, and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.
35 And on the morrow when he departed, he took out two pence, and gave them to the host, and said unto him, Take care of him; and whatsoever thou spendest more, when I come again, I will repay thee.

…Only To Stifle/Prevent Their Voices and Opinions On YOUR OWN QUESTIONS By 'Blocking'?

THEN WHY BE ON R&S?
WHY ASK THEM QUESTIONS?
WHY NOT MOVE TO N. KOREA?
WHY NOT HIDE UNDER YOUR BED?
ARE YOU A HATER OF THE FREE WORLD?
ARE YOU *THAT* UNSURE OF YOUR BELIEFS?
IS YOU ENTIRE LIFE SO NARROW YOU CLOSE YOUR EARS?
WOULD YOU RATHER WARP TO THE SPANISH INQUISITION?

Are You A Murderer of the Mind?
… a Squelcher of the Senses?
… Theistic thought police like… Sean, Dave777 and 4 Star?
SEAN just asked a ‘very serious, very important questions for atheists” – I wonder how many he’s stifled… *sigh *

In the Gospels Mat 24-29 24-30 24-34
Jesus Christ says something like this "... Truly I tell you. this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place..."
Any one who has read the Bible knows what Jesus is talking about. so no need for me to explain. What I need you to explain is why the things that he was talking about did not take place... ??? To me here one has to read this passage as it comes literally. Otherwise we have this sort of "I dont say what I mean and I dont mean what I say. and you have to guess ,if you can, the meaning that I am intending." The sad part is that God (if it was really God who wrote the Bible) is playing some sort of Baccarat En Baccarat we play for money. but in the Bible we play for our eternal bliss or eternal suffering. Who said that gambling was bad?
