Which god are you talking about? after all 1 in 4 people in the world are muslim. There are many different belief systems and interpretations of whom god is? So seems like since you don't even go to church you subscribe to one major religion can we agree on that? I still think it is funny you christians must come to this thread and try and convince and others that you believe what is right. Then your contention is that man needs god to survive? LOL how could you possibly prove such an absurd statement? I bet you believe every time a cell divides it is gods hand lol unreal. Hey CJ a quadruple poster is calling you self involved lol. HAHA babs determined to "prove" his point in case you don't know how science works that usually the desired effect at the end of your research. Maybe our kids can go to school and say i don't have to show my experimentation logs or prove that hypothesis is correct god said it is imagine how far western medicine would have come with that logic. Example: This man has terminal cancer stage 4 lets anoint his head with oil and say a prayer chemo is for the secular. astonishing the way you think babs Every time you post and people like you that are not only blind faithfuls but uninformed to your own beliefs. you drive more and more people away from believing. Now how is jesus gonna afford his giant churches if you scare away that much tithing.

I like the concept of rational anarchy myself, but I know that it's not something that could be realistically put to practice. But the concept is admirable.

If we're godless communists, does that make you a religious fascist?

im proud to be a godless heathen! capitalism is just as corrupted all it takes is money and lobbyist just like now. by the time a bill passes through all the greedy fucks it's a watered down hey we tried half ass peice of toilet paper. much like the healthcare bill.
And you're concerned about how many times I post? I have something to say, I post....sue me.
If you can speak like that which you wipe yourself with, don't complain if I speak at all.

I don't think they have proof. They think science will prove God doesn't exisit, but I tell you the truth it will only prove the opposite. I don't understand why people haven't figured it out. Believing in God isn't just about believing in God, but it is a way of living!

You're a little confused. Science doesn't need to prove God doesn't exist.
You need to prove that he does.

Otherwise it's just another scheme for collecting money and pliable followers.

Nobel winner slams Bible as 'handbook of bad morals'

LISBON (AFP) - A row broke out in Portugal on Monday after a Nobel Prize-winning author denounced the Bible as a "handbook of bad morals". [SIZE=-2][/SIZE]

Speaking at the launch of his new book "Cain", Jose Saramago, who won the 1998 Nobel Prize for Literature, said society would probably be better off without the Bible.
Roman Catholic Church leaders accused the 86-year-old of a publicity stunt.
The book is an ironic retelling of the Biblical story of Cain, Adam and Eve's son who killed his younger brother Abel.
At the launch event in the northern Portuguese town of Penafiel on Sunday, Saramago said he did not think the book would offend Catholics "because they do not read the Bible".
"The Bible is a manual of bad morals (which) has a powerful influence on our culture and even our way of life. Without the Bible, we would be different, and probably better people," he was quoted as saying by the news agency Lusa.
Saramago attacked "a cruel, jealous and unbearable God (who) exists only in our heads" and said he did not think his book would cause problems for the Catholic Church "because Catholics do not read the Bible.
"It might offend Jews, but that doesn't really matter to me," he added.
Father Manuel Marujao, the spokesman for the Portuguese conference of bishops, said he thought the remarks were a publicity stunt.
"A writer of Jose Saramago's standing can criticise, (but) insults do no-one any good, particularly a Nobel Prize winner," the priest said.
Rabbi Elieze Martino, spokesman for the Jewish community in Lisbon, said the Jewish world would not be shocked by the writings of Saramago or anyone else.
"Saramago does not know the Bible," the rabbi said, "he has only superficial understanding of it."
The author caused a scandal in Portugal in 1992 with "The Gospel According to Jesus Christ."
The book depicted Jesus losing his virginity to Mary Magdalene and being used by God to control the world.
Saramago quit Portugal at the time and moved to Lanzarote, in the Spanish Canary Islands.

Weird that Darwin is in the Atheism poster, since he was devoutly religious. I guess he's not wanted in that camp any more, and we get to keep him

Not thats of any relevance... but I share a birthday with both of the men in the middle of that poster.

I tell you the truth many people are very confused on what God is. It is a state of being, it is a way to live. God is found in people. People are the ones that choose the path to suffering, we can also choose the path to happiness. God leads people to true happiness. I do not need to prove God exists, when I already know He exists in myself. Before you judge me judge yourself. Look and see how your actions effect other people. Actually think about it. Believing in God is a state of consciousness. When I say man needs God to survive I mean man as a whole. Look at the world. Look how people act. Man certainty cannot survive the direction he is headed. We were given intelligence, we were given thought. We can choose to make the right choices. For thousands of years people have been killing people. No one wants to die. So why would anyone kill another person? They don't truly understand how valuable life is. All people have is this one life. I only have one life and you only have one life. We only get one chance. We are all flesh and blood. If people truly valued and cared about their life they would stop doing the same things that lead them to suffering and stop causing suffering on other people. If we all believe in God we will be united as one. Unfortunately many people do not really believe in God. Instead of putting God as number one in their life, they value other things such as money or a piece of stupid dirt that has been fought over for thousands of years. These things do not bring real happiness.

Well if G*D is inside all of us, there is no need for churches of any kind. We can ban all organized religions too. what's the point of all that if it's redundant?

LOL, you guys seriously crack me up. Now atheists claim to fame is Darwin is religous? So, it MUST have relevance NOW, hehe.
Picking and choosing......all about convenience, sound familiar?

Not that there's any relevance, but the person who started this thread and is nowhere to be found bears my grandfather's name.

<<<playing theme song from Twilight Zone>>>>>>
HAHAHAHAHA, but it is true.

Braz, EXCELLENT videos.

I've always been on the fence on this , I'd rather go atheist than be associated with babs, or people who have a mightier than thou attitude

Reminds me of a Dung Beetle Robert.... truly.

way too closed minded not willing to think outside there realm of reality

It isn't easy convincing ppl of a myth in a modern world.... desperation is evident.

As religion becomes more and more shoved aside for true personal responsibility... look for violence to break out from the ones who claim to be "tolerant".
