    "Managing Attachments"

    I can manage what I am attached to. I have in the past, and I continue to do so. It's not hard to figure out what attachments are good and bad for you in your life, and I do a fine enough job getting close and distancing myself from certain attachments when it's good to do either one. I don't...

    "Managing Attachments"

    This thread almost made me vomit. Do we really need to be spiritual and have long winded discussions about this? You have to be pretty stupid to not realize that you should manage what you're attached to. I don't need anyone to tell or help me realize I should become unattached to a girl who...

    Is it true that the world will end in the year of 2012?

    2012 is going to be a fun year. Get to see all the people waiting to be beamed back up to the mother ship.

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    There's obviously rocks with life on them, since we live on one. But, most of them are just floating rocks. The Earth is just one example of things developing within a certain system. And to show life and what not developing, we have abiogenesis, evolution, etc. But, we have only seen how life...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    Can you show me how the cosmos is a living entity? It's full of stars, planets, and what not, but how is the cosmos in of itself a living entity? Is this Star Wars, and we're using the force? I was never being facetious in the other posts. I had to post a very out of the ordinary example so...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    The cosmos may have always existed in one form or another. We're still at the point where we're trying to figure that stuff out. It's just not good to make any assumption that the universe is a conscious entity when our understanding of the universe isn't that vast yet. Not trying to argue that...

    Why doesn't God stop evil, pain and suffering?

    I can be creepy. May I help?

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    Oblivion seems to have more definitions: oblivion definition | Dictionary.com I was obviously using that as an example. But, yes, I would like to sign the paper as to my choice in something like that. I would like solid evidence and data for both sides of the argument to be handed to me by God...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    Should've stated in the beginning that it was a state of non-being. Children being deceived has nothing to do with choice over something like that. Like I said -- let me see the papers to choose what I want. We don't know if it's a boundless and eternal cosmos. ;) Whether it is or isn't is not...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    You can be floating around in a big void. A consciousness surrounded by nothing. Then let them choose Oblivion out loud. Let them get to the pearly gates and then they can sign a sheet for which one they want. Give people a REAL choice. This babble just goes to the age old question: "What...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    Each religion has their own offenses against God. Which one is correct and why? So, God, this all powerful being allows people to go to Hell because they didn't believe in him, or maybe not in the right way, even though we as beings would be even lower than ants compared to him? Does God feed on...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    That depends on what kind of Eternal life. Do you go to Heaven? Are you a vampire?

    Is Vegetarianism integral to a moral life.

    Some species are more detrimental than others. If certain species were wiped out, we wouldn't feel the effects.

    300 babies and 200 women killed in Gaza in 13 days

    Is it really necessary to put 300 babies and 200 women in the title? It's stupid how we make it a priority to show women and children as casualties over everyone else. It should be enough to say that INNOCENT PEOPLE have died.

    Is it vital to engage with your emotions?

    Emotions help make life worth living. If you couldn't experience love, satisfaction, etc. If you couldn't experience sorrow, pain, and all that, then you wouldn't be able to appreciate the good. People wouldn't have much in the way of personality, and life wouldn't be worth living. It is...

    How can anyone ever deserve eternal punishment?

    Nobody exactly chooses death over life (except suicide cases.) Death kind of happens to everyone. Why would anyone reject the free gift of eternal life? Was it because they didn't have enough evidence for the existence of a particular God that they have to miss out? "Sorry, you didn't quit...

    God/Jesus sinned. Genocide is a sin of high order.

    For an all powerful being, God surely does have a lot of petty human emotions, and a really horrible way of going about controlling (or not) everything.
