Its like you come into one of our homes and tell us to leave you alone.Back off of what? We have freedom of speech (or typing lol). How about you atheists back off?

I've heard your side of the argument for about 30 years now, I go to church every Christmas Eve and Easter Sunday out of respect for my family. Plus I get to hear quite a bit about it from my wife who is a pasters daughter who after 20 years of having religion drilled into her head decided on her own that it was a bunch of bullshit.
Lol nah, that went by fast haha.
...Philthy, can I call you Philthy? Faith is not so much about saying 'don't worry man, have faith'. It is more structured than you might think. Faith has everything to do with controlling the most potent creative energy known to man. If you'd care to, an esoteric study on 'peter' might help. Or, you can pull one if you'd like to. I will certainly not come into your home if you choose the latter.No, I didnt give up, I had to cook dinner last night, then when I woke there were like 7 new pages to read, mostly of the same stuff. Sorry
I keep seeing the same argument here, this isnt really an argument thread unless its ,"hey, we christians didnt make THAT worse and heres why..."
What I AM seeing though is the same, "you are wrong about christianity being a false religion" without much reason why. We all know, and christians know too, that ultimately you have only faith. But faith, IMO, is just the desire to believe in that which we have no compelling evidence or deffinitive answers to support something. Ultimately your end argument will have to be, "you just gotta have faith man"
And I love seeing christians say they believe in science. Thats like me saying I believe in religion. I believe in many things religions preach much like you believe in many things that science teaches. However, there are a few HUGE factors with religion that I disagree with, such as a divine god that cares about us for example, much like there are a few HUGE factors in science you dont believe in, like carbon dating for example. Much like I cant say I believe in religion if I only believe a few points, you cant really deffend your case for believing in science while discrediting a few huge premises.
^^ I agree with this out of context statement.Faith has everything to do with controlling
...nice! Show me how.^^ I agree with this out of context statement.
I meant I agree with that statement even though I took it out of context of what your wrote...nice! Show me how.
...lol I know I wanted you to show me how faith controls people. I mean, it does, but I wanted to see your answer.I meant I agree with that statement even though I took it out of context of what your wrote
this comment makes this thread worse I am unable to see the nipples in that sagging excuse of ascii artthis thread makes roll it up worse. Lord Jesus rules you. (_Y_) <- kiss here
I can pretty much sum that all up in one word...lol I know I wanted you to show me how faith controls people. I mean, it does, but I wanted to see your answer.
...does not in any way describe faith. It does, however, show how to attain faith.I can pretty much sum that all up in one word
Bible
A set of rules and regulations formed in ancient tongues and interpreted by the masses
A. is a mind f*** and a half lol,i cannot prove A or B,but i cant disprove them either.Just like my stand on Evolution and The Big Bang,theirs some evidence that suggests they couldve happened,but not enough crucial evidence that suggest they did.Charles Darwins theory of Evolution by natural selection,for example,can anybody prove to me that a giraffe with a short neck,over time and many offsprings,will have a long neck?Is their fossilized remains of animals before and after evolution to connect the dots?(serious questions im curious)If the BigBAng did occur,(remember at the begininng of everything supposedly)what possible evidence can scientist collect to prove it or disprove it?have scientist ever witnessed firsthand this miracle?Like I said before, the word theory means something completely different in a scientific context than it does to the layman. I can provide evidence that would lead any rational mind to the same conclusion but your dogma disables you from accepting it. The evidence is there for anyone to see, fundies like oly just refuse to accept it. That is what it comes down to.
Science doesn't prove anything, indeed I (or you) cant 'prove' anything, only disprove things.
To provide you with an example, I encourage you to take up either of these challenges;
A. Prove to me I'm not a brain floating in a lab somewhere being manipulated by electrical impulses to experience what I call life.
B. prove that I don't have an invisible fire breathing dragon in my garage.
Well, when the majority of "christians" define their faith it usually includes faith IN the bible no?...does not in any way describe faith. It does, however, show how to attain faith.

This brings up an excellent point, the need to control ones mind, the avoidance of the knowledge of good and evil, the thought that an attempt at full understanding is of the devils path. (and heph, using these words doenst mean I believe in them, its what you guys believe, so I can say devil or god right?)...Philthy, can I call you Philthy?
