Heres a religion thread that will piss a lot of you hippies off

[MikeofTulsa Moderator]

I think religion is pointless.
A lot of religious people spent so much time praying and going to church and then, on top of that, they give THOUSANDS of dollars to their church!!!!

PEOPLE, if there WAS a GOD, HE or SHE would want you to LIVE your **** LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have three main reasons why I dont believe in any "god." If you are religious you may not want to read.

1. Its fiction. I know a lot of religious people who say that Christianity is the only "real" religion. Islam, Hinduism, etc. is all fake. Well, which one is real? How do you even KNOW Jesus existed? Jesus could be a fairytale charachter thought up by some marijuana using hippy who just so happened to write it down. Wouldnt that just be funny?

2. Priests raping boys. I dont think any explanation is needed.

3. I believe in science. If you saw the Hubble Deep Field (yes, look it up) I bet your religious beliefs will be dampened. In a square area, 1/5 the size of the moon, the Hubble telescope absorbed all of the light it could from only that area for many days. It generated an imaghe that contained thousands of galaxies. In each one of those galaxies, there are hundreds of thousands of solar systems. In each solar system, there are planets just like ours. If there was a god, why would he or she even give a shit about our little worhtless planet? And where would "god" come from? Thats just coming up with an answer to life that poses another question.

If you agree with me, great. If you dont, go give your church more money.

1. there is proof throughout history prooving he existed

2. apparantly you dont know the difference in catholicism(sp?) and christianity, but what does some priest's supidity and immoral acts have to do with prooving there is no God?

3. not really sure what your 3rd point was?

ohh well, i havent read all 9 pages of this yet. so im sure someone has made these points already

8But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! 9As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!

Mormanism and Islam = pwnt.

1. Umm.... history proves he was alive, as well as u being alive today... Ungrateful good for nothing ****** //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

2. Catholicism isn't real Christianity...?? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif ...........//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif it diverged. See the history of Christianity. WHO persecuted the "Christians" ... the Catholic church... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

3. Ok.... science is discovering whats already here.... created by God obviously. Dont give me some crap that this all came to be by evolution or some random act.

IF u were a true science person, u'd see that even at the molecular level things don't go willy-nilly, there is strict order and things happen a certain way. For example when a cell replicates its DNA making tRNA and mRNA, the transcription is flawless [except during rare mutations] and every part of the cell does what its supposed to do at a certain time....

Check that... its crazy cool. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

EDIT::: Evolution is like saying this: "A literature book was created by a sack-full of toy letters that was randomly throw about for about 6 million years"

your last point doesnt work though, becuase in evolution there are failures, and those failures dont survive. natural selection

2/3 is better that ur 1/3... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

Nooo seriously, natural selection is the only part of what I really think is true, but ... soo what about it... We all know that only the ones who adapt are able to survive... soo what? Where did this creature that adapted come from? Nothing? What? From a fish?

Im about to pulll my 900 page Bio book on ya. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

EDIT:::

Oh and the adaptations u speak of are not gonna be anywhere in the range of going from one creature to another or from water to land..... totally different thing [read:Impossible] When a certain organism is chemically, molecularly, and [damn word escaped me: their physical buildup] well... chances of that ever changing drastically are pretty much zero.

Thats like saying we're gonna adapt into... I dunno what to use as an example.. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

I disagree, Im atheist and I hate the mormons.

Now why would that be??//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I love APC's remake of Imagine.
I hate the original Lennon version.

That wouldn't have anything to do with Maynard would it?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eyebrow.gif.fe2c18d8720fe8c7eaed347b21ea05a5.gif

BTW, that version does kick ***

where's that james3343388409407074097409743 guy at. he loves these threads.

He was just here, but for some reason he did not post.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif From what I have noticed he really dosen't argue with people that might have a clue as to what they are saying.

I might not believe in god but I wont push my believe on anyone else just like I hope nobody would push their believes on me //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Ding, ding, ding, ding. Here is the best post in this thread. Believe what you want, just keep it to yourself. Personally I don't believe in god, but I don't feel the need to scream this from the top of any mountains. Hell, just tonight when me and the G/F went to Kohls for some Xmas shopping I was approached by the mormons in the parking lot! After the third no I think the kid got the hint. Of course I had to threaten him with violence before he got the hint, but he got it none the less.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/naughty.gif.94359f346c0f1259df8038d60b41863e.gif

Im agnostic or atheist, I dont really know. But I always figured, if you dont believe in anything, I dont consider that a religion, lol.

But this thread, ftl.

Pushers of religion, ftl.
