Lifelong Christian had to face the facts

RE: Lifelong Christian had to face the facts
Quote:Faith is a belief that something is without any evidence whatsoever.

Thats blind faith. Try again.

Quote:I don't believe that there is life elsewhere in the universe. I just consider it to be more likely than not.

I believe there is a God, but I dont say there is a God absolutely, I could be wrong. You still do believe aliens exist.

Quote:As for Chaos theory, that demonstrates that complex systems can arise from simple systems following simple rules, without any intelligent input.

Name one.

Quote:The perfect example being snowflakes.

Snow flakes? Simple?
I wouldnt say its simple.

The Chemistry and Physics behind it would be rather complicated, wouldnt you agree?

So is the chaos theory ignorant to how complicated our world is?

Quote:Statistical chances? What chances are you looking at? Last time I checked god was just a possibility (sort of like the tooth fairy), but there's no evidence (hence the faith bit). The same with aliens, except for the part that it is actually a much more rational stance.

If the bigbang was a tiny bit bigger or smaller no life, no galaxies, no nothing would exist; either we are bloody lucky or some being had His hand in creating this universe. You have to have over 20 parameters in place for a universe and funny enough, all the parameters are perfect.
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.

You dont hate God, you hate the church game.

"God is not what you imagine or what you think you understand. If you understand you have failed." Saint Augustine

Your mind works very simply: you are either trying to find out what are God's laws in order to follow them; or you are trying to outsmart Him. -Martin H. Fischer
