Shouldn't be doing that sort of thing in a church, tut tut.

Nope, I watched this program (Dispatches on Ch4) about Evangelicalists and how they go over the top with their worships..

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.

No he cant, Humans are defineing words not god. Unless along with the 10 commandments god sent along a Heverns dictonary, The definitions of words are the creation of humanity.
If an omiptent being exits, it could change this, but then the flaw woulnt be there. The flaw is there so no omniptent being has changed this, and hence if existing is still stuck with the contardiction.
For god to do anything, he must then be able to do things he cannot, Such as Make it so someone never has existed. But hows that possible, you can errase them from exstiance, but they still would have existed, and once they have how can any deitey ever change that? it cannot?
Hence god is also forced to abide by the laws of logic.

Its like saying god could create a 4 sided trainage. By deffinition if it had 4 sides it would cease to be a trianged :)

Members of other religions believe their stories through and through, despite whatever scientific knowledge pops up, and they live to their rules. I say good on them, it must be nice being able to believe in something so much that you'd do all that you can to make your deity/deities happy.

Please don't try and tell me what I should/shouldn't believe. There are many different interpretations of the Bible and the "excuse" that you come up with is precisely what I believe.

I'm not religious. My parents chose not to dictate to me how my life would span out. They chose to allow me to make my own decision with religion. I did believe in G-d for a while though. Then I didn't feel that there could be one. I don't think I've ever been truely religious. the most religious thing I've done is sang in Christmas choirs and that's about it.

Yea and he just described the Catholic one. if your takeing the metiphocal meaning you aint classed as chafilic, There are 100'000 of subsets all with differing interpations and understandings of the dietys, bible etc in question. To class in to one, you need to forfill that way of belife, Catholic is a fundermalist set, You lack that you aint Catholic.
Althogh chances are many will class you as that, since most people dont tend to know any that roman chatholic and protisatnts "/

Plus half the bible was written metaphicaly and proven by other litriture from the time, Son of god, was more aless every other person, it just ment a devout christan, way to misinterpite "/
- Notice jesus never clames to be the son of god, even in the metpahical sence...

It's just that usually Jewish people write God as "G-d"
25-04-2006, 08:24 PM

People that say G-d usually just don't believe in him.

Unless someone gives me photographic proof of a Chocolate God, then I sahll sit in my corner throwing things at passers by. Besides, the only real use for God is to be shouted at and called a <Person who has sexualness with someone without their permission> for taking Virgin Mary when she did not want love :rolleyes: And I bet Jesus was gay...

It's funny, I believe that Jesus could have existed..just not through G-d. I also believe that he married and there is still a blood going through since his time.

But God himself..no I dont' believe in him.

If thats the case, then jesus is just an ordinary bloke, so who realy cairs about his blood line or not? it was a pretty common name back then, and realy ...still is in some places "/

Did you read that news story about how Judas was apparently asked by Jesus to betray him? Theres a translated text that proved it.
25-04-2006, 10:24 PM
FlyingJesus

Well yeah, supposedly at the last supper Jesus said that someone there would betray him and that he would suffer for it, then he told Judas to go "do what you have to do".
