I'm awarding 5 stars (my highest rating) to all these answers.

According to Christians god gave you free will. You are free to rape and murder. People do it all the time. Most of them believe in god. But, you have noticed that there are criminal laws haven't you? Those are the real deterrent to murder and rape.



Quote:If there is no god, how does your life have any meaning?

Define meaning? Really, this is essentially a meaningless question. If you mean how does it have value, it has value to me and others who know and love me.

If your life is merely a piece of someone else's plan, how does your life have any meaning?



Quote:Where did the universe come from?

Haven't got a clue. If there is a god, where did it come from?



Quote: If there is no God, then why does every society have a religion?

If there is a god why does every society have a different religion?

You can't be serious.

I'm not the one asking these (utterly moronic, easily "honestly" answered) questions; they were posted on Today Christian.

Don't you dare blame me for these. :p

and yet, neglected to post the responses to the questions.

Quite a head scratcher that is....

Bwahahahaha!!!

Apparently "truly" and "honestly" are abused and misused by them so often, they have no meaning anymore. >.>

Always convenient where they post this bullshit but don't allow anyone to reply.

Typical of the religious mindset: lie loudly and don't allow counter arguments.

Been thinking of starting a blog where I can post this sort of bullshit and respond to it directly.

Isn't that what this forum is for? Wink

Otherwise, I approve of the blog idea.

True.

That's not my only reason for doing a blog. Of course, I used to do one but simply didn't have the time to keep it up so deleted it.

Might be time for a new one . . .

This is literally the ENTIRE post:

Quote:Some Questions Atheist Cannot Truly and Honestly REALLY Answer! Which leads to some interesting conclusions…
A delusional Christian? Who would've guessed...
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Guys, it's time we all owned up ...they're onto us!
OK, here's the core truth.

We are the lizards speaking through atheist hosts.
We are the entities from another dimension who control the matrix.
We are creating the new world order.
The single important idea we have developed over thousands of years to keep inquisitive minds from discovering us is to use "religion". It's been a roaring success.

Revealing ourselves now is not a threat anymore.
All the power players are in place and the indoctrination process is flawless.
