God?

[Pulchritudinous]

Thers no reason for a god, and no proof to anything of its exsiatnce appart from a few old books saying the worlds flat.

Astranouts cant reach pluto, but satilighst can and have gone thuther.

People ask what caused teh big bang, and often say god was needed to make it happen, but if god didnt need a cuase why would the univerce.

The acatlal bible was an attempt to explain how everything came to be. But then was just taken and used as propergander to give people power, thats why its contrdicts itslef so much.

I agree, but even some scientists are religious.
At first I thought how an earth can they believe in God, but some believe in both, one man said he believes that the 'soul' was given to humans by God, and everything else was created by the big bang.
But I don't believe that people have a soul, I don't think we are any more special than animals, like the bible says.
And I think the bible was just made to explain to everyone, before we had hardly any science, how the world was created, therefore I think, God did not create us, we created him, and now we have science to explain everything, no-one needs him as reassurance.

I agree with most of that, i do not belive in the sole but we are most specal than animals, becuse we have come thuther, well at least part of us has, are brain is hugly more evolved than that of any other animal on the planet, and have given rise to coniosness, being aware of our own existnmaces and the abilty to ponder it, the level of compomplexity is immence, but in the terms of the universe, this is nothing, we are beoned the animals, but i do not belive humans at least not the way we are going will have any specal signifcances, i belive we will die out just like any other creature.
We polute, ozones destyroed, we and every other animal dies of, if not form the sun becuse of no food, plants thrive, more oxigen, forms new ozone new animals live, and it all starts over again. until finaly easth is asorbed by the sun.

Yes we are special in that way, because we have the ability to do so much more than animals, but I don't think we are so special, that we are given an afterlife and animals are not.
Unless you believe in 'Pet heaven'.

I agree with the top post by mentor, if the bible said we were all floating around on flying sticks 100 million years ago would that be what we belive today?

I belive when you die you die. The after life ideas and reincarntion are ulitmetly pointless.
We are a davaced lifeform but we are not the pincle of eveoltion or even near it. Coniuness is what sets us appart, but its lighlty there are levels of understanding many times beoned that and so thorth.

But humans are just an animal, we will die out,, like any other, the only diffrnce is we will care that we did, or will while no other creatue allive at the monet on our insignifacnt planet, orbiting a standard start, in a normal spriral galexy in the middle of no where, will.

Even if there is reincarnation it still means we are going to whitness the end of the world.

Reincarnition is flawed by 2 things.
1. the popultion is incerasing, so they cant just be people living over again.
2. if you have no memory of your previos life, and nothing about you is the same, theres no diffrence from being dead and the next one being a comaplty new person altrgether.

Also, if you get reincarnated.. and then die again.. get reincarnated.. die again.. etc.. The will had to end one day
And if you got to heaven/hell.. you cant just stay there forever. You've gotta come outa that place someday or another.

[Ciaran]

So back to what i was saying before, do you think if the bible said we were all jumping a flying around 100 million years ago is that what people would belive today? it sounds just as stupid

[Pulchritudinous]

Well, they didn't think that, so you can't say whether they would believe that or not Ciaran.
And Mentor, I totally agree that when we die, we die.
I'd also like to believe that, I don't want to live forever.
