Can't she be a girl in my dreams? I dream about girls a lot, so that could be possible..Obviously you are a little girl in a past life in the scenario.
Imagine these scenarios:
1 - You're a native American living freely in Europe. One night, you have a dream about white men coming to your land in big ships. The dream turns bleak. You dream of sickness, of disease, of death, of pain all because of the white men. When you wake up, you were so sure that the dream was real - but when you tell your elders they automatically console you... and tell you that such a thing will never happen, and that it was all a figment of your imagination. You keep believing what you saw to be true, and eventually everyone around you gives up on you as being deluded. Prove that the girl's dream was wrong.
2 - You're living in England in the 1750s. You have a firm view in mind that all swans are white. Someone then travels to Australia fifty years later and sends you back a letter telling you that they saw a black swan. But this can't be true. Swans are white. Your friend is obviously lying because black swans clearly don't exist, as you've never seen one yourself before. Prove that the man was lying.
3 - You're walking passed a church one day. The year is 2010 and your life is going pretty darn well. Suddenly, a small child strolls out and asks you why you're not inside. Not believing in a God of any kind, you smile to the boy and say you don't belong there. The boy frowns and walks back inside. You sigh. That poor child is being brainwashed. He's deluded and his parents are feeding lies to him. Prove this to be true.
You sure about that?
The Atheist Life:
Fight Christians,
Fight Religion,
Enjoy life,
Nothing is a sin, you can do whatever you want,
Eat have sex 24/7 it doesn't matter,
Really the atheist's way of living sounds like The Church of Satan's way of living and since some of them claim to be Atheists...it sounds like Atheists do have rules.
Atheism is the belief of no Gods
Belief= System of beliefs= Religion.
Just face it...Religion will never die.
Now that I think of it (I am slow, lol) it is not even possible to do that... at last not very long, since we would die or fall into madness.So what if eat and have sex 24/7 is our religion, what of it? Are you the eat and have sex 24/7 police?
And you can't disprove that some theists might be onto something. So everyone's on equal ground, really.

Why was it real, exactly? It just felt real? No more than a month ago, I woke up in the middle of the night and saw red-haired woman pinned to my ceiling across the room, screaming at me. It was a strange, very real, sleep-paralysis hallucination. Why would anyone believe that she was real? The human mind is a screwed up thing.1 - You're a native American...
Ask your friend to shoot one and have it mounted and sent back, if you can't make the trip yourself. I'll remain skeptical until I see evidence, (though the claim is believable enough that I may soften my position based on hearsay).2 - You're living in England in...
For one, I was raised in a church that lied to me. For two, ministers rarely even teach the realities of the book itself (history of the early church, contemporary context, etc). You can learn more about the Bible by watching the Life of Brian than going to 90% of churches for a lifetime.3 - You're walking passed a church...
And I'm the Second Coming of Jesus. You can't disprove it, and I might be on to something. We're on equal ground, really.I can't. And you can't disprove that some theists might be onto something. So everyone's on equal ground, really.
The hell it can't. If you believe in the God of the Bible, then tell that to Job or Abraham or Noah. They got face-to-face sit-downs. In those days, people got killed by she-bears for making fun of a bald guy. If you're saying that this character actually exists, then where is he? Where's the infidel smoting? Why do scientific double-blind studies show that prayer is ineffective when it was clearly promised to be effective in the Bible?How would someone prove a negative? Well you can't, can you? And it just so happens that in this case, the "positive" also can't be proven.
You don't appear to have a clue what a strawman is.Not remotely what I was getting at, but nice strawman.
People know things are wrong all the time, it does not prevent them from being wrong . So, in my opinion you could go down there, take a look at that supposedly black thing and then spend a week or two at a beach somewhere. Or something.What? Go down to Australia just to disprove something I know is wrong? What lunacy is this?
What girl? Maybe you should formulate these posts more carefully.Imagine these scenarios:
1 - You're a native American living freely in Europe. One night, you have a dream about white men coming to your land in big ships. The dream turns bleak. You dream of sickness, of disease, of death, of pain all because of the white men.

Of course it can; why not? Is there something about swanness and makes it impossible for one to be black?2 - You're living in England in the 1750s. You have a firm view in mind that all swans are white. Someone then travels to Australia fifty years later and sends you back a letter telling you that they saw a black swan. But this can't be true.
He wasn't.Swans are white. Your friend is obviously lying because black swans clearly don't exist, as you've never seen one yourself before. Prove that the man was lying.
Now this is easy. Just set foot inside the church and watch all the child-brainwashing going on.3 - You're walking passed a church one day. The year is 2010 and your life is going pretty darn well.

That's right. I'm fighting Christians, enjoying life, eating, and having sex at this very moment.The Atheist Life:
Fight Christians,
Fight Religion,
Enjoy life,
Nothing is a sin, you can do whatever you want,
Eat have sex 24/7 it doesn't matter,
They might. And they equally well might not. What on earth is your point?I can't. And you can't disprove that some theists might be onto something. So everyone's on equal ground, really.
Yes. Also the Tooth Fairyists and a-Tooth Fairy-ists, the unicornists and a-unicornists, and anybody who asserts anything imaginary, apparently, according to you. However, until someone comes forth with evidence of Tooth Fairies, unicorns, and Gods, I think I'll continue to carry on on the fairly safe assumption there's no such thing.How would someone prove a negative? Well you can't, can you? And it just so happens that in this case, the "positive" also can't be proven. So unless someone actually provides some scientific evidence one way or the other, both theists and atheists are equally justified in their views.
Is your name eselam? This is his approach to any evidence for evolution. He won't look at it, because he already knows it's impossible.What? Go down to Australia just to disprove something I know is wrong? What lunacy is this?

Atheists are the ultimate multi-taskers.
You haven't told us when the dream takes place. Is it in Europe prior to 1492? If she is living in Europe, then those ships would be arriving on European shores. No wonder her elders treated her as being delusional. If the dream happened last night then clearly the child has issues that need to be dealt with... and soon.1 - You're a native American living freely in Europe.

Actually, no. It would depend entirely how much I respected my friend's opinion. If I felt they were truthful and trustworthy, being a reasonable person, I would exclaim disbelief, but would probably say, "Wow, you learn something new everyday! I'll take your word for it as I know you well enough and that you wouldn't lie to me." In my view, only an utter moron would react differently.2 - You're living in England in the 1750s.

Actually, I would be far more likely to ask the little bugger why he was talking to strangers when his parents weren't around, but hey, that's just me.3 - You're walking passed a church one day.

The only one I can think of is Pocahontas, though the genocide in Mexico and elsewhere had been underway for about a hundred years by the time she died, under the name Rebecca Wolfe, in England.[
1) What free native american lived in europe before the genocide of the americas?

Just one thing in advance, though. I'm not an idiot. Kthxbye.
