Fine with me. I'm quite accustomed to getting no respect from believers. I've been on other religious forums where I have been insulted and disrespected. But, on those sites, you're required to "respect" the buffoonish beliefs of the brainwashed. Otherwise, you get banned. And "respect" means you can't even use the word "mythology" to refer to things like the Babble. I much prefer this forum where I don't have to worry about upsetting the sensitivities of some deluded twit.

Since "God" is an imaginary being, I don't expect people to "join" him.
Quote:The Bible is very clear--it is appointed unto man once to die thenthe judgment' Unless you hit the rapture you are going to die, it is part of the rules.
Yeah, the Babble has all kind of ridiculous crap in it.
Quote:Science hasn't done a thing.
Well, except for mapping the human genome, sending spacecraft to explore distant planets, creating the computer I'm typing on, creating lifelike artificial limbs, performing organ transplants, splitting the atom, curing smallpox, polio, diptheria, etc, etc.... (I could go on for pages)
Quote:God given intelligence,
Then why do we have people who are mentally retarded? I guess "God" decided not to give them as much intelligence as he gave others.
Quote: God created mathematics, physics, etc.
Newton created calculus. Euclid created geometry. Stop giving your imaginary friend credit for what PEOPLE have accomplished.
Quote: God given will,
Huh?
Quote: God provided thenatural resources to make the rockets andon it goes.
Baseless assertion. You have any evidence to support this claim?
Quote:Science hasn't done one thing as science as a being does not exist but is run by those who were granted their abilities by God.
This sentence is quite rambling and makes no sense.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
