The seventh day adventist who knocked on my door the other day was quite adamant that there's a vertical petrified tree that rises vertically through the rockface of the Grand Canyon and that it's proof the world is only 6000 years old.

He also claimed all fossils were fakes, put there to trick us because he said flesh can't fossiled.

And of course he came up with their old argument saying that radio carbon dating claims something 5 years old is 100 million years old.

Why do churches fed these poor guys with such nonsense?

Can't they arm these guys with better arguments?

Ok, according to some christian churches(including the catholic church) the bread and wine actually become the body and blood of christ. Cannibalism is illegal. Should those who believe this be arrested after accepting communion? Or do we need to pump someone's stomach afterwards and test the contents to see if transubstantiation actually occurs first?

If they aren't considered a sinner, why not? How is killing a person by lethal injection or other forms of professional execution different to a person taking a gun and killing someone on the street?
Is legal killing of someone who is deemed for whatever reason to warrant the death sentence allowed and ok in God's eye, or do they go to hell for killing others?
Surely the killing of another individual is wrong no matter if its legal or "in cold blood" - ultimately whats the difference between the 2 and does God separate them?

Since we are all equal in the eyes of God. Was Jesus' suffering more important and significant than your own? If you say we have inherited sin then you can also say so did Jesus through his mother, and support this with the disrespect he showed in the temple when driving out the traders and when he said to his mohter another time something about the only parent I have is my father in heaven. A very hurtful and disrespectful remark I thought, or the incident of running away as a child and being found preaching to the people on the steps of the temple, what a selfish and disrespectul thing to do to your parents from a child wise enough to draw the attention of a crowd.

The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an
invoice,
so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He
called
her into his office and said, "You graduated from the University of
Georgia
and I need some help. If I were to give you $20,000, minus 14%, how
much
would you take off?"

The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, "Everything but my
earrings."

You gotta love those Georgia women.

********************************************************
Alabama :

A group of Alabama friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for
the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering
under
the weight of an eight-point buck. "Where's Henry?" the others asked..
"
Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the
trail,"
the successful hunter replied.

"You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they
inquired.

"A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to
steal
Henry!"


********************************************************************
Louisiana:

A senior at Louisiana was overheard saying... "When the end of the
world
comes I hope to be in Louisiana." When asked why, he replied he'd
rather
be in Louisiana because everything happens in Louisiana 20 years later
than in the rest of the civilized world.


****************************************************************
South Carolina:

The young man from South Carolina came running into the store and said
to
his buddy, "Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the
parking
lot!"

Bubba replied, "Did you see who it was?

"The young man answered, "I couldn't tell but I got the license
number."


****************************************************************
Tennessee:

A Tennessee State trooper pulled over a pickup on I-65. The trooper
asked,
"Got any ID?" The driver replied, "Bout whut?"


****************************************************************
North Carolina:

A man in North Carolina had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the
road
and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and one
behind
it. Then he got back in the car to wait. A passerby studied the
scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went back.
He asked the fellow what the problem was.

The man replied, "I have a flat tire."

The passerby asked, "But what's with the flowers?"

The man responded, "When you break down they tell you to put flares in
the
front and flares in the back! I never did understand it neither."

I am giong to spend time with my 12 year old daughter and nephews. I am going to pay some bills( big bills) and maybe go out to dinner with my sister and my younger nephew who is almost 8. My daugher and I love to look in pet shops. I cannot believe for a little puppy they charge about $800 or more for a little pup. But they are cute to look at. So what are your plans for this weekend?

I mean, I've been on this thing for a while now and the only answers I've gotten back from these religious people are either "FAITH!" (the polar opposite to proof), "I'M HERE!" (So? So am I), and various irrelevant quotes from the Bible (Yes, I actually read them, the rather excessive lenght doesn't put me off). None of these actaully qualify as proofs however. I've also gotten responses like "God bless you", and "You will go to Hell". Once again, not proofs, except pehaps an indication of a lack of proof. And don't say you've been "touched" by God either, whatever that implies. It's mildly unsettling, but not a proof. Yes, by the way, I have proof AGAINST gods existing. What is it? The fact that there's no proof for his/her/their existence, and no need for him/her/them to exist. The fact that the idea of a monotheistic god was first devised by a greek philosopher that called himself Plato isn't exatly a good sign either. Well, this is your chance to proove me wrong, go ahead:

That the mosque or Church that terrorist attended from should be destroyed. That way it will send a message to any other delusional person that if they want their "religions" to thrive they will start acting like normal rational human beings? Almost like treat the whole group like children. Almost saying to the moderates, "sorry they ruined it for the rest of you, now we are going to take all your toys away".
