Funnily enough I find it comforting that there is no God. The idea that there is some all powerful shithead running this show just fills me with horror. Judging by his demands we are not dealing with anything remotely humane here. Thankfully he is a mythical as Thor - and many times nastier.

If you feel dread hen someone dies then you simply do not know God. without selecting the knowledge of God for yourself one can only feel dread of death. Quote: Also our mind and thoughts are in our brain so there can not be an afterlife as our brain decays along with the rest of the soft tissue in our body.how do you know that the 'brain' is not just the physical link between our souls and our bodies? in modern terms 'God' is simply a transdemensional being, He also promises eternal life in his realm for those who also believe. which would mean if we are not already we soon have the potential to be a transdemensional being as well. how do you know that when we die we simply don't just wake up from this world this "matrix?" (how do you know this life is not the dream? for is the bible is correct this llife is nothing more than the briefest of dreams.) (quote) Also if god was real then surley he would have let so called early humans such as Adam and Eve about there vast universe to show there power. That brings me on to another point, females existed before males and the Y cromosome is a mutated X cromosome so that renderes the story of Adam and Eve a lie. Take that religion. [/quote] says who? the process in which we all start out as females ad ten the males are showered in testosterone causing the y to mutate to an x? Is this process how the bible says Adam was formed? (Hint: nope, Adam was formed out of clay by the hand of God) are we made from clay in our mothers womb? ( Another hint:Noope again) So if the two process are completely different then why do you assume that Adam was created the same way we are?

I've made my "heart felt decision". I simply cannot choose to worship this god - as doing so would be to abandon whatever good there is in me. If this were a matter of knowledge, if I knew that god was "up there" and hell was real...my decision would remain unchanged. Neither would be capable of "making my choice for me". No, Drich...I'm afraid that this one's about as transparent an excuse as they come.

You know the best thing about Thor? He [eventually] comes to terms with his own mistakes and limitations......and doesn't require some lame ass cadre of apologists failing to make excuses for him on a daily basis.

How about the Dagda? Can I believe in the Tuatha de Dannan?

If he made heaven on earth, we wouldn't seek Him and neither of us would have the pleasure of knowing each other. "Religion" is the quest to connect the created to their creator. Here's what God says to you: "For I know the plans I have for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

In philosophy, the argument between Materialism and Dualism rages on. Materialists say that firing neurons somehow constitute thoughts. Dualists say that an immaterial mind interacts with our neurons. In Christianity, the immaterial mind, or soul, is spiritual and eternal.

Have they traveled back in time to find out how the sexes came to be? You're right that if the sexes evolved, the female would have to come first. But there is no current physical evidence relating to sexual origins.
