    What are your philosophical stance or view in matter-life?

    Oh boy, i'm the only greedy person on the forums. Damn you capitalism!

    Extra Sensory Perception in People

    A mix of coincidence, wishful thinking and probability. I have a dream almost every night. Eventually one of them is going to come true. That doesn't mean im supernatural. It means if you take enough stabs at predicting the future you are going to hit the mark sooner or later.

    Religion and science...enemies or friends ?!

    Science is impartial. Its not friends or enemies with anyone, rather, it is simply the persuit of true understanding. Religion is the opposite. It is partial to whatever is convinient, and is the persuit of understanding without a question of validity or reason.

    Extra Sensory Perception in People

    Human Testimony is just about the most useless information one can have, let alone having it come second hand. So whilst your story is amazing, and quite possibly true, I maintain that ESP is nonsense. That said, I have had a few rather "paranormal" experiences. But then i'm wise enough to know...

    Is It Possible To Have A Conversation With God?

    Assuming God exists and you can have a nice chat with him, i'm not sure he'd have anything terribly interesting to say. Most people would ask questions like "what is the meaning of life", not realising the question, not the answer, drives us. Its like a magic trick. The illusion amazes you. The...

    Science or Scripture?

    Very clever people say very silly things sometimes.

    Missionaries..Shouldn't we leave Gods work up to God?

    I like Larry David's take on conversion... Why do Christians take everything so personally with Christ? You know? It's like, not only do you have to worship Him, you want everybody to. It's like, I like lobster. Do I go around pushing lobster on people? Do I say, "You must like lobster. Eat...

    Your Worldview

    Mixed. The universe simply exists. It does not have a concious ability to delve down any particular path concerning its stance on us as a species. On the other hand, the Universe is so capable of ending our existance with an event so uneventful in the grand scheme of things as to be cruel.

    the choice...

    Just because you cannot "remember" something, does not mean it cannot change you for the better in other ways. A perfect year sounds better than a meagre one to me.

    To All Self-Proclaimed Christians

    If that were true perhaps America would be a little more pro-choice. After all, how many infants did God himself manage to kill?

    What does God want from us?

    Gee, I don't know. He creates us, then decides that half of us should go to hell for doubting him. Seems pretty selfish to me.

    Can anyone verify this?

    Keep in mind that Anton was very much into Parody, Sarcasm and Hyperbole. ;)

    Bill Bennett strikes again

    Black Crime is statistically sound. Its not racist to point out the significance of African American crime, in the same way that it is not sexist to point out that women are safer drivers. Mathematics is objective, not subjective. The "blacks of our nation"? A prime example of reverse racism...

    Bill Bennett strikes again

    Maybe i'm just going out on a whim here, but I think he made an ingenius point. There is a line to be drawn at the measures we can take to reduce crime. I suppose, my interpretation is, statistics aren't everything

    Can anyone verify this?

    Don't get me wrong: I am fustrated with the article, not you. Hopefully you are now a little wiser :) Still, I don't see the need for this to remain: people less aware of Anton's past may interpret this as truth, and that does nothing for religious diversity in these parts.

    "Son of God" means "Servant of God" in Hebrew

    What exactly are you aiming to achieve? Do you expect to rock the foundations of thousands of years of Christian tradition based on a few random quotes scattered throughout the bible? Perhaps instead of trying to prove your religion / disproving others, you should try to find a truth that...

    Secular Humanism?

    If you can prove Santa Claus does not exist because he does nothing, then why can't you prove God does not exist, because God also does nothing. If you believe in God, you might as well believe in Santa: there is as much evidence in contemporary society for both.

    I need some help, please

    Alot of Catholics I know are pro homosexual rights, which begs the question, why do they participate in the religion in the first place. A religion is supposed to bring together people of similar ideologies: if you share different views than those around you, then why would you continue to be...

    common misconceptions about Judaism

    This may have stemmed from Comedy Central's, South Park. If you haven't seen the show, well, I suggest you do sometime ( ;-D ). It makes fun of Jews (Persona Kyle) through the persona, Cartman. It is funny and quite innocent, but I believe alot of what you are talking about might just, in part...

    Can anyone verify this?

    Clearly anti-satanistic propaganda. The source is obviously a less than reputable one. Anton's name was LaVey, not LeVey, and he only had 3 children. Two daughters: Karla LaVey (by his ex-wife, Carole), Zeena (by his ex-wife, Diane), and his only son, Xerxes LaVey. Furthermore, Anton...
