How many times do we have to tell you:
There is no such thing as magic!

About the most "magical" thing that can happen to a man is to magically crack a "soft on" when looking at your girfriend's hairy breasts!

It all comes from super-consciousness, and it all goes back to super-consciousness.

Ridiculous, super consciousness is just one aspect of ultra-consciousness....it all comes from ultra-consciousness, and it all goes back to ultra-consciousness.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Whatever you want to call it, it doesn't matter, because the label can never be that which is.

Really? The quran uses the word universe?

The word heavens is used, and god says in the quran that the rains come from the heavens, he also says god makes the heavens and the earth.

It doesn't really fit in.

Would god say the rain comes from the universe? Or that he made the earth and the universe?

I predict by the year 2500 Muslims will have slipped so many alternative words into the quran it will actually look like a modern scientific document when read in English.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

You should change your religious views to 'We have no proof'.

The existence of god seems to be the only truth claim you demand evidence for.
