What happens when we discover alien life? Do the christians say the devil created them? I think we will find life or evidence of it outside of the Earth in the next 100 years (well we already have evidence of life on Mars.)


Animals don't go to heaven? Then why did god create them? Why didn't he make it so we wouldn't have to eat?


Why doesn't he ever show his face?


Anyway I've got to go to work but I could say more.

P.S. when the freak can I make new threads? There still isn't a 'new topic' button!!!

A) None of these questions disprove the existence of God. If He does in fact exist we're still figuring out the rules of his game. One would assume, based on him not intervening in human affairs, that he doesn't interfere with natural progression.

B) Don't make threads. You can barely make posts.

Shit, how can something claim to be infinite, and unchanging, and the alpha and omega, and then BAM change. Things go from being historys to being fables. This gets ignored and that gets over preached.

Because maybe He didn't change. Maybe our theories about Him are wrong?

So, naturally, over time religion has bent itself backwards, trying to remain relevant in a world of science.

What they're saying is that religion can be abused by a few misguided, or ill willed people. Science can be used as a tool to do the same, as he pointed out with the "scientific" fact that women were biologically unfit for the workplace, or black people had misshapen monkey skulls for heads. All of that was science at one point. Both science and religion have been mended by insecure men who were too stupid to figure out that acknowledging a woman's power in the world does not diminish his own. It all boils down to big fucking idiots controlling people to their big fucking idiotic (and wrong) ideals.

To penalize religion for this and simply say science is making a few errors in search of the truth is completely one sided. Both religion and science are trying to discover truths about something (sometimes the same something).

I <3 you guys for entertaining me at work

Stupid French. On a related note it was kind of funny to hear the french commentators yell out "MAY POUR QUOI? MAY POUR QUOI?!" when Zidane headbutted that italian player in the World Cup Finals.

I haven't even been able to introduce myself.

If the reason you complained about not being able to make threads was because you wanted to start a thread introducing yourself, then do us all a favor and don't bother posting here anymore.

Agreed. Nobody cares about introduction threads. If you're interesting, you'll get noticed, and if you're not, then an introduction thread wouldn't go over well anyway because who wants to read a thread about an uninteresting person?
