Does it?
I have to assume that you've read my response (since it's immediately above Phil's), and yet you chose to not respond to it.
Your statement (more correctly, assertion) is unsupported. Care to support it? If you don't, that's fine, but realize that it stands only as an unevidenced assertion and can be treated as such. I presume you know what that means (i.e. it means that your statement doesn't stand at all).
Check with R.L. Johnson.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Care to narrow it down a little bit more than that? I have no intention on going on a snipe hunt to track down a source for your assertion.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

Evidence however suggests that creation by God is a reasonable faith - based on what we can "check" and the honesty of the authors of the Bible - which you can verify for yourself. It is somewhat disconcerting that some "facts" are fabricated to support the theory of evolution - which you can also verify.

Evolution has fuck all to do with faith. It is only morons like you who try to claim otherwise.

Faith and evidence don't go in the same sentence. With evidence comes the rational understanding of a particular truth whereas with faith one acknowledges it can not be shown to be true, hence why one must have faith that it is true.

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.
Quote:Since God's objective is not eternal life here on earth, how do you expect people to join God?
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.
