Does someone know if there is a kindle version of Richard Dawkins: The God Delusion?
Did you look in the Kindle store? Cause that would be a good place to start...
And please, talk to a therapist about your pedophilia issues. You can't change your attraction system. It is sort of imprinted in you around 13-15. Being attracted to girls is not your fault, but what you do with it is. Before you hurt someone, please, manage that professionally. This is one of the major harms of religion, IMO. It is akin to faith healing. You wouldn't say that God took care of your cancer and never get checkups to check your hormone levels and white blood cell count, right? Deviant sexual attraction is the same thing. You can't fix it. It is there forever. You have to manage it.
God delusion was ok, but if you want to see what the other side had to say there are better choices.
SteelCurtain: Can you tell me what is the difference between a pedophile and a non-pedophile? And how can I talk with a therapist about a problem that I don't have? And I have all the time made social life with people of all ages and none got hurt, how do you explain that?
Ben Davis: It is true that the brain activates those zones according to the impulses received, but the reason why we need a brain to control these functions is because there would be no way to manifest spiritual functions in a material world. I wouldn't see you if you didn't have a physical body, hence the need of material mean (the body) to encompass an invisible but existent soul. We still don't have the technology to connect cables to the brain and see what a person is dreaming or thinking about. RE: I'm new to this forum...

I can't give you any links right now seems I'm on my kindle but a quick Google search should give you a ton of results. It's mostly not using wires but you get the point I'm sure.

We've mapped every organ in the human body in far more detail than I think you realise and found no Soul Gland or Animus Cortex. With no evidence to support you, all you've presented is a nonsensical supposition. It's barely even coherent. Here's something for you to think about: if souls need physical bodies to interact, how do they talk to each other in heaven?
Sum ergo sum
