    Question for the Young Earth crowd

    Why do we have to assume that matter was created? And if everything created must have a creator, what created God? And if it's so easy to assume that God has always existed and didn't require a creator, why is it so hard to imagine that matter is likewise? I'm assuming you're a physicist or...

    Question for the Young Earth crowd

    I'll expand on that point. According to Christian dogma, everything created must have a creator (nutshell, ironically, wishes to revise his religion to conform with current scientific teachings). I've heard that God has (1) existed in his current state for all eternity (defying entropy...

    Real Man?

    Can I ask what a real woman is? :flirt: Also, why is it so important for men to be valid by the traditional societal definition of what a real man is supposed to be. I could just as easily say that a real man has to be strong and take care of himself. Would I be a pansy, or a disgrace to...

    Question for the Young Earth crowd

    This is a good topic. I like the responses you've gotten B. According to science, matter/energy can never be created/destroyed. According to Christianity, it can. According to YOUR Christianity, God cannot create or destroy matter or energy, only convert it, to comply with the laws of science...

    Is suicide ever justified?

    This is from experience and I'm not making an assumption about any one religion. Especially Christianity, as there are apparently two sides of the fence no matter where you go. When I was in the hospital, a Christian told me that my life was not mine to take. God has a plan for me, he said...

    Atheism is just another religion

    Saying that atheism is a religion is like saying science is a religion. Neither of them accept anything by faith, only by proof and logic. In my personal case, I don't believe in any type of god because I have no reason to. I've grown so far beyond the idea of a personal god that I no longer...

    Is suicide ever justified?

    This is an old question, and was probably asked time and time again on this forum. I'm asking this classic question on morality because there are so many people of different faiths and belief systems here. I would love to here the various opinions on whether or not suicide is ever justified...

    The Bringer of Light.

    I have the NIV, a rather expensive one my father bought me in an attempt to help me see the light (his light). On my bookshelf at home is about five copies of the KJV. I believe I also have an NASB. Online, I use the SAB (Skeptic's Annotated Bible) to pinpoint the verses I need, which I...

    The Bringer of Light.

    [/font] Applying a difficult concept to a commonly accepted and recognized concept (like a popular movie) is not absurd. It puts things in a perspective that everyone can relate to.. and I happen to use movies a lot, not because they define my beliefs but because my beliefs define them and...

    Why certain religions should be discontinued.

    Oh, Soule. I revised my argument and made a fresh thread like you asked, and we're still not cool? Would you like me better if I put Naturalist as my religion?? If you mean by learning nothing that I've not adopted someone's certain religion, then yes, I've learned nothing. I am still...

    The Bringer of Light.

    I touched on this in an earlier thread and thought it was worthy of its own. The Latin translation of Lucifer is "Bringer of Light" or "Light-bringer", derived from lux (light) and ferre (to bring). It was Lucifer who coaxed Eve to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, against...

    Why certain religions should be discontinued.

    My previous thread became convuluted, but I still learned a few new things from my opponents. My motives for posting here was questioned because I said I was here only to learn.. when it may have seemed that I came here to harm or stir up trouble. This might belong in the Intro threads, but...

    Would the world be better off without religion?

    I realize I was offensive. And maybe I intended to be. I'm a vocal and active member of antichrist.net and it's been my experience with the Christians who write to us.. not to like them. Too many death threats, wishes for illness and plagues, and "You're stupid" comments has trained me to...

    Would the world be better off without religion?

    Darkdale, you're giving me the most enjoyment on this thread :). I hope we can be friends? I have to say, without people there would be NO religions. If there were no people, there would be noone to argue the existence of God or morality. Same with the other social constructs, which would...
