GOD

[tahthing]

i was brought up a chatholic(im not sure of its spelling) but some of its kinda weild since in the bible god stops intracting as much after the old testiment.
personly im not religous.
but i understand that some people find the idea of playing god insulting.
there is room in evolution for god who made those atoms stick together to make dna who made that dna come together who made the improvements. the seven days can reflect into a evolution timeline first the planets and stars and sea then the sea animals then the land animals then us the order fits!

My view on gods:

A god is to humans what a humans is to ants. An ant can never truly understands what a human is. It's just too big, too far outside it's way of life. All the ant can understand, is that sometime, something very big comes down and breaks parts of it's nest, or crushes it and it's kind. No reason, no explenations, nothing.
That's why I belive there might be gods, but I'm not willing to belive in religions.

Everything people attribute to a god or gods had no explanation when they were created, but might have one now. What I find hillaryous is people denying science because it infringes* on the territory of their god, like what Creationists tried to do. That was some funny stuff.

*I love this word. I use it as often as I can.

[tahthing]

if god exsisted i don't think he would have a physical body but acts in the way of a guild

[Blitzen]

And if the Astarte Bunny existed, I don't think he would carry suck a small basket as he is often portrayed* as doing.

*Another great word. Also, posse.

I wish I hadn't resurrected this thread, but a Necromancer must take care of his thrall...

honestly other than the fact that 95+% of the world believes in a god in one shape or form. there is no proof that god exists. and the best way to explain why so many people believe in god is that there lonely. or they don't understand things. honestly do you think that IF god exists that he would want to listen to 1000's of people begging for forgiveness. even if god exists i can't imagine him having a different personality then us and i certainly would not want to listen to all those confessions. but that's just me

This is what is called self-deism. Believing oneself so important that you cannot fathom anyone or anything being significantly different than you. Self-deism is one of the biggest fallacies of atheists. It's hard to prove your point, when you claim (subconsciously) to be a god yourself.

With that said, I roll my d17 to turn or rebuke this thread back into undeath.

ya i agree this thread needs to die, and now Im contributing to its life, damn

[IVhorseman]

if your religious you'll just say he doesn't want you to know (wich gets kinda weak.)

By defenition, an all-powerful god would be literally impossible to prove.

die thread, DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

[Greenkey15]

Warman, there are fourteen reasons you are wrong.
6. Evolution and the Big Bang are goddamn THEORIES
7. They have no possible beginning, as the beginning of life is not explained at all and the universe could not of possibly come from nothing without a creator or have been there forever
8. The timeline is screwed up, because you say evolution takes hundreds of millions of years and happened thousands, millions of times, but you say Earth had only less than 40 of those hundred million years
9. You don't worship Darwin
10. Darwin himself said that without finding fossils in-between evolutions, his theory is false. We havn't
11. If birds evolved from dinosaurs, wouldn't they of become extinct between evolutions from phailing when they tried to fly?
12. Darwin first started the theory of Evolution by saying "Because the Anteater eats the Ant, the Ant must of come first". Couldn't you say the same if they were both intelligently designed to eat and be eaten?
13. Wouldn't it take a helluva lot of species-wide mutations to make a single evolution?
14. If we evolved from apes, how the hell are we typing all of this?


In other words: Die thread Die!!1

[stubby]

This was a pretty good and funny thread before it got necroed, but then people started taking things all Serious Business. So before I lock it, I will intelligently design the final Serious Business word on the subject.

6. If you don't know the difference between "theory" and "a theory" then you should probably not try to sound smart.
7. the creation of life from non-living organic material, as well as the creation of nuclear cellular life and DNA formation from viral material invading megabacteria, has been witnessed in the last few years in radiated water from various nuclear coolant towers in western Europe. For a good start, google "mimivirus."
8. "Forty hundreds of millions of years" is "hundreds of millions of years." It takes nine months for a baby to develop, yet in any nine months millions of babies are born.
9. I would explain why not worshipping Darwin doesn't disprove evolution except... why.
10. The fossil record in between evolutions is extremely thorough.
11. To pick one random example, we have the fossils in between the evolutions of "bird" and "dinosaur." For the most well-known, google "archaeoptrix." There are many intermediate stages between running and flying that are perfectly advantageous.
12. You could also say the same if the anteater invented a time machine, went back in time, vomited, and used miracle powers to bring the vomit ants back to life to start a species for future anteaters to eat.
13. There are no species-wide mutations. "A single evolution" doesn't even mean anything. You shouldn't argue about words when you don't know what they mean.
14. Apes have already been trained to type using pictographic keyboards.

So there are 14 reasons why you should do your research somewhere other than the bible before pretending to know enough about a subject to argue with people. (I wanted to get all that out before locking the thread so that I would have the last word. Muhuhahaha.)
