***stalin? lenin? boy what a list I bet your sooo proud.yea christians are bad...lol*** Y'know... Hitler was a Christian. Omitted that one, didn't you? I think he did more than just say 'Jesus loves you'- in fact, last I checked, he was responsible ...
***It is the same like a toy and a toymaker. Then could a toy ever understand the intelligence of the toy maker? Why can't you understand this simple thing?*** You claim God made each and every one of us, in his own image. The fact is though, there ...
***To interfere here and say that no God did not create this universe because science has proved blah blah... is biasness.*** You're going to claim it's 'biased' to take proven pieces of science against fairy stories? Now I *have* heard everything! ...
***Well ofcourse atheists do not have morals. What is moral according to you? Who sets the moral standards? You yourselves?*** So, you're saying if you didn't have God, you'd be raping, pillaging and murdering? Guess what? I don't have God, and I know...
***Please quote verses before making such mindless accusations.*** Mindless? Says the person believing in something with about as much proof of existence as the tooth fairy, Easter bunny, or Santa? But, as you ask, I will oblige: ''And he that bl...
As I don't believe in 'God', he hasn't really done anything in my life, nor do I believe he's done anything in anyone else's lives. However, the idea of 'God' and people carrying out his word has done a lot for me: - Reading 'his infallible word', t...
I'm a skeptic/rationalist, and I'm kinda of the same mind as filletofspam. For one, there's no point in worrying about death- worrying about it doesn't change the fact that it's going to happen, it just wastes time worrying. Secondly, I imagine death b...
I am a skeptic/rationalist. I don't feel empty without 'God', or any other deities for that matter. I don't believe in miracles. I'm not tired of my life- I know I've only got one life, and there's no evidence to suggest any other life after death, ...
***So the idea of believing that a God does not exist comes in handy. Then they can do away with God and not bother about weather a thing is a sin or not and do what ever they wish. A sense of freedom comes in.*** You really do believe that without ...
***1. Unwillingness to let go of his sins*** I admit things that I've done wrong, and I prefer to ask forgiveness of those I have wronged- maybe it's just me, but I find that a bit more productive than asking the forgiveness of something which has q...
Probably the realisation that 'Magic Man done it' is not a logical explanation.
I'm really anti these 'Christian camps', they seem like a place of indoctrination and brainwashing. As Toadaly points out, if you believe Jesus is the son of 'God', and died on the cross for your sins, you're technically Christian. However- you expr...
I quite agree with Captainassassin's words "A fear of mortality is one of the WORST reasons to practice religion". In fact, plenty of people I have met follow faith so they are less afraid of things they don't have the answers to. The prospect of no...
Yeah- she's alright. Not my favourite artist though.
Even if you're just drinking soda (as in, not energy drinks, but coke, sprite etc), you're going to cause a huge load of damage to your teeth from them- even if you brush twice daily! Add to that a pack of smokes a day, and a couple or three candy b...
One thing I make a point of is that you can't get into debt with pay-as-you-go. If you're worried about running up huge phone bills, pay-as-you-go prevents that from happening. Also, as is outlined above, it's your choice, tell him to back off and l...
You should be able to change them at the bank. Alternately, some stores have started installing 'change counters', where you pour your change in, and you get a receipt you can redeem for cash at the checkout. they take about a 12% commission though.
***It's what we call a sense of humour, or humor as some americans mispell it.*** You're assuming the captain is American... or 'american' to those of you who can't punctuate properly... ***I am a joker of sorts, anarchic and tricksy*** Don't ...
***You can classify yourself as much as you want. Skeptic, rationalist, idiotic.*** Idiotic... says the guy who believes in a deity with no more credibility than Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy, or the Easter Bunny. Maybe this childlike fantasy world ...
***Explain yourself! How did he throw shot holes in his own theory?*** Mouici claims 'Creatures equal to the creators! Creatures may become creators as well! Does this seem reasonable?'. This is not reasonable in the sense that it compares 'creatures'...
Apparently there are two Jedi churches in the world... Yeah, it is kinda sad that people actually believe something from George Lucas's mind is for real- but hey, it provides entertainment for the rest of us!
It's not a matter of freedom of speech, it's a matter of Kanye West being a rude, pompous, arrogant person. I don't really like any of the people involved (Taylor, Kanye or Beyonce), but realistically, I think Taylor Swift won that award for a reaso...
Okay- judging by your other questions, I wouldn't be surprised if people called you that. I mean, you don't like being in a relationship, because you like to partake in sexual activity with multiple partners, and you want your friend and her boyfriend ...
Sorry Mouici, but you just shot holes in your own theory. That is, if you can say it has enough substance to even be classified as a theory.
The problem with gold plated jewelery is the gold comes off relatively easily. Your best bet is to take it to a jeweler and get their opinion- they know what they're talking about, and can tell you the best treatment for it.
***1) One does not create one's child, one begets it. *** Here's a lesson in biology for you, and I'll try to use words you'll be sure to understand: Two people (a man and a woman) have sexual intercourse. During this act, sperm is released from th...
***ignorant people are going to believe that god doesnt excist because they were brought up to believe seeing is believeing not true*** Not true at all- I've seen pictures which seem amazing, which have been photoshopped. I don't believe all I see, ...
***But if you are serious and really want to know then there is one way and that is to talk to me by funmail. I will show you that God does exist and I will also show you how to know Him.*** Translated: 'I'm desperate to have another convert to take...
My Mum's really lovely- a bit overbearing, and she worries about me a lot, but that's part of what makes her so sweet!
***this great nation was founded on christian laws...*** Right... you know that Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Franklin and Lincoln were _not_ Christians, right? I believe these days you can swear on a book of law if you refuse to swear on a bible...
It can also be that the hair grows in different directions. Underarms are notorious for having hair growing in several directions. Just brush your fingertips over the area, and see if you get resistance from any hair, and shave in that direction.
Indeed, religion is man-made.
***Well after reaching after life you will find reasons why you should have taken afterlife seriously.*** That's hilarious eternallife! I mean, you're a person who denies things that are proven to be true, backed up by solid undeniable evidence. Ign...
Stephanieg: Turn off your caps lock key. Typing in all caps does not make your point any more valid.
***A Christian does not pick and choose what to follow. If one does that he is not a Christian. The Bible is a book of tat contains reports and does report some people's mistakes to show that they are mistakes. It would be foolish to follow those mista...
I too find it amazing how it's apparently the infallible word of 'God', yet those who follow it pick and choose which bits they go along with. I wonder if 'God' is feeling vengeful over them treating his infallible word like a pick-and-mix candy stand...
***yes hell does excist why? cause theres a heaven why? read the bible.*** Where is your solid, unbiased, undeniable proof of heaven? Hell? Until you pony up that evidence, I'm going to believe in science and logic. And for the record, I've read ...
***The Jewish people for the most part, still reject the truth of Jesus as the Messiah.*** Still looking for that unbiased, undeniable evidence backing up this 'truth' you keep ragging on about...
***Amazing how when we refuse the truth, what we can imagine, in our own mind.*** The idea that we go into the ground is *fact* (unless you choose to be cremated, etc). The idea of 'Heaven' or 'the afterlife' has yet to be proven. So yes, I gu...
Religion has nothing to do with patriotism. That's like me saying I'm not a true New Zealander because I don't like rugby. ***The New America... IS ANTI-GOD... So you should fit in very nicely ...*** Another fine example of Silverwings and her sh...
I'm a skeptic/rationalist.
~Have lots of teddies and dollies all over the place. ~Set up a table with those toy tea sets, teapot and cups etc. ~Hang mobiles from the ceiling (you can make them easily with wooden dowel, string and McDonalds toys/little soft toys. ~Playdough ta...
***... and I'll tell you that you actually haven't done that much thinking or feeling, or being one with the universe or in touch with your spirituality.*** Right... let's see... I : ~was raised by a Catholic mother and Anglican father ~was give...
***how the hell am I drama queen?!*** You just posted this huge long rant that isn't actually a question, titled 'Reassurance?' and ended it with '...I'm so fxcking over everything..' That screams a few things to me- 'teen angst', 'mercurial', 'whin...
***The way I see it, if people want to get married young then whatever, it's them that will have to deal with the consequences.*** Not just them- if it ends badly, any children they have together can be caught in the crossfire. Families and friendsh...
***Religion makes more sense than believing in nothing.. open your eyes and your ears, because knowledge proves that there is a God, our creator, not believing in God is nonsense, just open your eyes.*** Clearly *you* need religion. Some of us choos...
'Hold my Hand' - New Found Glory The way your hair swings over your eyes, the motor in my head turns Wanting you for such a long time, in my mind, a heart, a lesson to learn Do do do do do do do do, You'll never know I'm after you Do do do do do do d...
I actually am! I didn't really like the films when they first came out, but now I'm quite looking forward to seeing the next one.
I'm with filletofspam- children learn at different rates, I've worked with one child who was nearly two when he started to take his shaky first steps. If you're really concerned, talk to your paediatrician, but it's not really a big deal at this stage.
I really can't see it happening in a 5 year old- a 5 year old's body is not equipped, and is simply not big enough to accommodate a developing foetus, it would most definitely deform the developing foetus, and either kill or seriously risk the life of ...
