Still, it's good to have something to remind me precisely why I dislike you so much <deletes the other stuff she wrote after scrolling down> what twif said Also, saying you're an atheist to look cool? A) that's stupid and B) in my case, at least, incredibly counter-productive, because over the years I've got a HELL of a lot of shit from about everyone I know about my beliefs (admittedly, I live in a more religiously conservative society than most of you guys). |

In my opinion, you can't believe in God if you believe in evolution, cause they do collide. |

BIBLE explains WHY? and BY WHOME? the world was created...
EVOLUTION explains HOW? and with what chemical actions the world was created. and they don't collide... Guys this knowledge is SO Junior class. ---------------------------------------------- Quote:
---------------------- I'll just close my thoughts, as i never thought i had to explain all the way something...i just felt of giving the first hinthes. Anyway... Most GODS(god) that exist in human mind are GOOD, they are created by human so as to feel safe in his little home. They are the "Faces" of kidness, the ones who created this world by love and for love. (don't tell me about satan, aris, salima...because they exist because the "good" god exists. SO when someone doesn't believe in a god, or just say a supreme power that created this world we live in, then his mind doesn't believe that the "creations" around us where made for good, thus he is emptry. A historical note : a human has this inner feeling of a supreme being...pholosofi is still meddling with this subject. So truly there cannot be a human without beliefs, because he/she will totally not believe in the creation through (call it how you liked, i say it) love, he/she will never have the udge to create something, as he/she DON'T believe that something good can be created...and of course he/she just can't, it's a mind think. Thus way i said, and truly i don't understand some angriness, that truly atheists cannot be happening, only if that human had serious mind problems (even serious killers believe in something) or a lobotomi...(and even those people have a hince for something out there). A person "cannot" leave without believing in something. Believe in natur, believe in his father's love, believe in his brother being an angel...If you sit and talk with an"atheist" you will soon see that they do feel something about something...And that's what humans named god over the time...What do you think god is really? An old guy, or our inner selfs? Quote:
and i am SO out of the second subject...i said what i had to say...i cannot say anyhting more

AAAARRRGHHH! What are you trying to say?
Atheists don't believe in God, right? But why the heck do you think that atheists don't believe in good and bad? Or in love or friendship? I believe everything has a logical explaination, but that doesn't mean I don't want to love people or to be a good person. --Erwin

heh, I have now stopped reading pleto's posts, they make no sense to me.
On a side note about religion and scientists, I watched a documentary about a group of religious scientists who believed in God, but not necessarily the Bible which is man-made. They figure that the true "evidence" of his existance is the geniality with the making of the first cell, from which life has sprung. Thought that was a pretty cool thing!

I was raised christian, and I still uphold some of their ways, yet I never really practice my belief in that way. All I know is that I do believe in a God, and I will continue to do so in my own way. I need neither church nor followers nor kindred minds in this.

But hey! We're all confused when it comes to this, including me. I don't blame anyone. EDIT: And pleto4_ryan, don't you tell us what we discuss is "SO Junior class". It's not. No life theory is complete. They're all missing pieces. You should be discussing even the simple parts. Last edited by Chrisse; 09-14-2003 at 12:42 AM. |

Nope, i am saying that there are no atheists because they believe in something and that God is not necesarry the old guy... God created human and Human created god...Human created him with his mind. God means a heck more thinks than just a supreme being. Example : Art is one of "god's" hands in earth. If you believe in art, you believe in beauty, thus you believe in god... You don't even have to name him God, you can call him Urucao or Firima or Siro or anything. God is just what we understand about ourselves and our inner self... Heaven and Hell is earth...we make them all...

Well gee, I don't really see God in art or something. I just believe in this bizarre sort of hereafter where this supreme being sits on a throne. Or maybe not, but I simply believe there IS something out there watching over us. I don't need explanation or people coming with scientific facts proving it's not so

An atheist can believe in something, he just does not believe in God. But I think you're not willing to listen so I'll stop explaining. Look at the dictionary if you want to know the right definition of an atheist. The dictionary says an atheist is (and I quote) "one who disbelieves or denies the existance of a God or a supreme being". The dictionary does NOT say that atheists believe in nothing, which is what you seem to think. --Erwin
