This website has a very respecable community, and I enjoy that. I'm a Christian myself, and I seem to get flamed a lot on other forums. Hopefully it's not as bad here!

Religion isn't really mentioned in any sub forum but the WEPR, and only in the threads about it really. Just know that if you do decide to post on threads about religion, you have to defend your side/claims, it's a debate forum after all.

Hm, I guess you are right. Almost all wars, however, start because of religion.

Probably because 99% of religions claim to be the one and only true religion and look down on anyone who doesn't believe. Fighting follows naturally.

Indeed, I suppose you are right. I just wish the whole world could get along...it already got flooded once...

Basic geology pretty much disproves a worldwide flood ever happening. Plus, where would all that water have come from, and then gone to?

Rained for 40 days and 40 nights, then it dried up for 150 days.

1) If there was enough water to cover the entire surface of the earth, where is it all now?

2) In order for it to rain continuously for 40 days, all that water would have to be in the sky before hand. You can't have that much water in the sky at one time.

3) Species diversity is far too great for there to haven been an extinction of all the animals not listed.

4) There is no way that Noah and his family and their families and 2 of each kind of animal listed could have fit on a boat that size, much less have had enough food for 40 days.

5) There are no traces of a worldwide flood.

That doesn't make sense, because you can't tell us where it went. it couldn't have just dried up. The water vapor had to go somewhere. And it had to come from somewhere.

God has his awesome little magic. Plus, he shows love and compassion towards all. Hm, all humans are unique and different. Plus, this feels like LA class when I type this.

So you have no argument.

He drowned 99.9999% of the human population and all but 2 of each innocent animal. How is that love and compassion.

Humans are an intelligent species. We gotta go somewhere when we do die, whether we are good or bad.

So you believe in magic?

I like how you add this after you "explain" the world flooding. ^^

The water vapor had to go somewhere. And it had to come from somewhere.

Simply this.

Er...
Neuroscience says otherwise, our brain is our conscience, when we die, we're gone.

Can you explain to me why we gotta go somewhere when we die?
Granted, I wish that were the case - but all evidence points in the other direction.
Or we just die.


Humans are an intelligent species.

Relatively intelligent. When it comes to morality and outlook on things? Kind of goes backwards to that of an animal. :/

Your right, matter can not be created or destroyed, so you are typically "go" into a hole in the ground, eventually being decomposed and such. However I don't see what intelligence has to do with that...

Oh. You mean that part of us that doesn't exist has to go some where? What makes you think that?
