To start with religion is not freedom of choice. Kids at an early age r exposed to the bias of their parents n follow in their footsteps more often than not. Called programming n not freedom of thought. Religion is a means of controlling its followers n always has been with threats of hell etc. IMO ppl devoid of thought will follow any snake oil salesman when indoctrinated to do so. Humankind jumps to simplistic answers when they have none nor search for the real truth. Religion is highly questionable n whether a big bang or not its not the choice to leap to without all the facts that a God is real. No proof that there is only 1 universe either. Q: for all those believers of a God(s) how old were u n who indoctrinated their bias upon u?
I agree with Hawk, in the fact that religious belief is bias to a parent and their teachings, but it doesn't change the fact that no matter what you're exposed to, man still has free will
The religious salesman are going to have to try sell it to me harder where you at explain to me how god can create the world 10000 years ago but there is fossils older than that?
The fossils we find today are most likely from the time before and after Noah's flood. Scientists saying that the earth is billions of years old is crap. There is no evidence that the dates they put on these fossils is anywhere near accurate.
OK. Since you don't wanna say it, I'll say it for you. Seth is NOT agnostic BECAUSE he believes in God. Seth understands now (thanks to his good buddy Cheese (the fake kind)) that agnostic means you're not sure whether God exists or not. But since Seth DOES believe in God, he now understands that he is not agnostic. Seth would like to take this time to acknowledge a being of superior intellect, known as fake cheese. Fake cheese gives Seth really bad gas that stinks up the entire neighborhood. But fake cheese also helps Seth understand how to use big words properly, so that Seth doesn't embarrass himself. You're welcome :mrgreen:
WOOWWWWWW Jesus was cruxified and killed by the Romans (murdered) where was he nailed... HANDS and feet -.- But in all seriousness, Jesus and Murder do not belong in the same sentence.
Yes, but they don't have any will to leave something they have been taught is right their entire lives
OK so dinosaurs were roaming around at the time god created the world then (because the fossil dates are crap apparently) so why are these dinosaurs not mentioned in the bible? If I was writing the bible the 1st animal I would mention would be dinosaurs as they are the biggest animals to ever live on our planet.
Good point nighthawk. Religion is also location-specific. If you were born in Syria or Afghanistan, it's extremely unlikely that you will believe in a Christian God. You will likely be a muslim. Also where are the religions of the past like the Roman belief in Zeus? All been forgotten, hopefully we will forget the current religions someday....
@Evil R u in denial or never heard of carbon dating? Can u claim its so inaccurate that ur fiction story is plausible or simply u r brainwashed? Arguing cuz u feel your religion needs defence is not acceptable.
PLEASE CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG But I'm pretty sure Egypt was the big ruler before Rome and Christianity was a big thing when Egypt was the worlds big fist.
Sorry man, no Christianity before Christ. The Romans (apparently) dealt with him pretty quickly while believing in Zeus.
Religion is nothing more than a division of believers into factions. Ppl killed over religious differences for what? Power n control is what.
