Im athiest, however I do not know, there is no SOLID proof of a god or no god. So if I did believe, I wouldnt have an orginized religion.

Good Thought ;)
Athiest, Althogh you cannot say absoulty whether you have a god or not, all god does is add pointless compliction and a tone of logical flaws.
I aM <3
Yay One!!
Ijm not REALLY Religious Though.. Just A bit :P
The christan consept of god cant realy exist, the consept is flawed "/
Omniptance in itself carrys an inherant contradition.
Benovlance yet another, since if god can do anything, how can it be then limited to only doing what is not evil?
Then you have the problem of evil itself. How can there be bad things in a word modled by a single deaity, esplay when both omnisance, transendance and omniptance are added to the mix "/
A pardox easyer to see is:
Can god create somthing more powerful than himself.
Could god make a rock so hevey he could not lift it.
Omniptance requres the abilty to create, while also requireding the created to be immposaible.
A thoery with that many long words in it cannot be argued with.
I was born an English Anglican, and then became an Irish Catholic (o.o) but when I noticed nothing in my life changed after I changed religion, I became atheist.
(Although it's Christian either way)
A truly omnipotent being could do anything (hence the term, omnipotent). Including the impossible. If I was a Christian I could use this logic to win any religious argument.Quote:

Sounds like the perfect job to me, being omnipotent. That's my new goal in life, actually. When I grow up, I want to be omnipotent. I'm agnostic by the way, I study religions and rites as well as sciences to see if there's any truth to any of it. So far I must say, the Big Bang theory seems to make the most sense, but who knows, maybe a God caused it? The theory itself doesn't account for a cause, it just explains the creation of the universe.
You see what I made bold.Quote:

Its about how if there is evidence of evolution or anything that proves something against the bible, then "Thats the way god made it". Its actually a class that used to be taught in school (although its banned now). Its that type of thinking that gets dangerous. Its ignorant and against everything free thinking.
Not saying that against you, but Im just saying I hate that basic idea. I didnt get into the details of it either, it gets pretty rediculous.
