Bah, I hate that belief. As if God DOES take lives...

One day God will ressurect the dead, like Jesus did.

Oh well, none of this makes sense if you don't believe in God...

True. None of it will make sense.


But People are stupid. A person is smart, but collectively people are stupid. One person( religios person) by themselves can think that we are a coincidence of thermal happenings on this planet. But get them together with other religious people and they cave.

Most people just need to add meaning to their small small insignificant lives. They need a higher power. Much like the incas ( or something) worshipped the sun.

Not to semi-quote MIB, but A hundreds and hundreds of years ago people knew Earth was the centre of the universe.
Hundreds of years ago, people knew the earth was flat.
And religious people know there is a god.

To paraphrase George Carlin:

" I dont believe in God, you know why? Because i cant see him. I worship the sun. because I can see it. It gives it that much more credability when i can see it. But i do not pray to the sun, no no no. I pray to Joe Pesci. He seems like the kinda guy who can get things done."


Carlin is my hero.

I was just waiting for this comment to come up. It has to every time. This comment could be twisted around and pointed toward people that don't believe in a higher power. But I'm not going to do that here, what I am going to say is that people that believe understand that just because something else is out there doesn't make our life any easier. Actually it makes it harder. For everything we do in this life will be judged, and how we are judged will determine how we are going to spend eternity. If you haven't been a good person, that can actually be a pretty scary thought.

Everything, except whats underlined, is actually past science facts. It wasn't God telling us these things, it was the educated men on the Earth at the time. And who where they to question the geniuses of their time. People have always believed in some higher power.

*edit* alright folks, I'm off to play of BF:V. You are welcome to come and Frag me... if you have xfire and look for shaggymaster. Laters.

I know that you were trying to twist around my words and turn it into an insult on myself, but alas, it did not work.

You see, it would have worked, but it was in the wrong tense.

People means more than one, person means one.

So i dont know how I can represent the stupidity for lots of people.

I can only represent my own. And I think I do that damn well.

What about Satan? I'm interested in why he really rebelled against God. What is the whole story? Thats what I currently research. If anyone has some information please share.

I want to know, While the Christians and Catholics have a Hell, why does Judaism not have one?

there are a couple versions: Satan was becoming very mighty up in heaven and wanted to get some of the glory that God was getting. He wanted to be powerful and take over God's spot to some degree, get worshipers and such, God didn't like that so he had Michael kick ass and take names.

or

Satan was competing with Christ as to who would be the savior of man. Satan said "just let them all be forced to follow God and they'll all be saved". Jesus said "no, we should give them free will and let them decide what they wanna do with their lives" Jesus got the gig and satan was cast out along with 1/3 of the heaven's angels with him.
