Quote:[Binary_number_here_that_I'm_too_lazy_to_copy]: "No such thing as a spiritual connection." Atheists believe that, that's fine. Ever notice, however, that most things the Atheist religion (and it IS a religion) believes in (evolution, etc.) are a little...far-fetched?
The Theory of Evolution is no more far fetched then some fairy-tale God getting bored one day and creating a universe, populating it, then abandoning it.
Further, Evolution is more plausable and there is evidence to support it. The fact that we exist -doesn't- support the God theory.
Also, I'm agnostic. I don't say there is no God or Gods, just that there is no evidence of a God or Gods.
Finally, notice the Bible (and the Koran) both specifically state there are other Gods? "Thou shalt not worship false Gods, for I am a jealous God." A false God is still a God ;P
Quote:But I respect both of you (atheists and believers), of course. Each one is up to believe what they want. I am only saying that believers believe in God, and atheists believe that God does not exists. To me, it is just a different kind of faith. Faith in the non existence of God.
Personally, I think both sides are completely retarded. Anyone who firmly believes something with no proof if a retard.
While, yes, I maintain there is no God or Gods, I'm still open to the possability there are. It just seems to me that with no proof of a God (which is good proof there is no God) and that no right-minded individual of vast amounts of power would waste thier time and that power on insiginicant things like creating universes, unless...
...Like in B&W you need worshipers to maintain power and gain power. If that's the case, then while then why bother creating an entire universe, just create worshipers. Seems more economical that way. Unless, of course, that's against the rules ;P
Life is like a box of chocolates', hrm, WTF, no it isn't, more like, 'life is like a steaming pile of horse crap.'
