My Dad isnt religious. Never went with my brother, Mom and I to church. My best friend is not religious. We used to debate for hours in college and I wouldn't budge on my Christianity. Almost coming to blows :mjlol:

Slowly I started to research on my own and as I did more thinking for MYSELF, I realized if I was God I wouldn't allow all this pain and suffering in the world. Does that make me more caring than "God"? So I became "spiritual". This year I started getting more into science and understanding "consciousness". I finally realized that currently I am an agnostic as nothing has been made certain.

The Epicurus dilemma also kinda sealed it.

Great thread.

thats a real deep way of thinking of shyt fam...

like we should all ask this question. If we had the power to stop all the fukkery of the world with a thought, would we?

Where did say it was verbatim???? Look who's backsliding now??

nikka, YOU stated the Bible said the sun revolved around the Earth, i didn't. That verse you quoted doesn't state that, nor is it referring to the Earth rotating at all. That shouldn't have to be explained, but common sense isn't a thing had by all.

All it is saying is the Earth itself isn't going anywhere. In other words, it's always going to be here. Are the scriptures THAT difficult to understand? :what:

So what makes you right and me wrong. He set the earth in its foundation (axis) and made sure it could never be moved (rotate and or orbit). You cant disprove that. It's your interpretation (fairy tale like allegory) vs mine (logic and deductive reasoning)

Exactly. God = the 3 O's.

Omnipotent (all powerful), Omniscient (all knowing), and Omnibenevolent (all good/loving).

How could you stand by and let some of the shyt that happens, happen? It's all fun and games until you realize damn near everything that could happen almost has happened.

I heard a story of a woman who put her baby in a microwave. :to: What if that was my daughter? Nah man, free will or not, if I could stop shyt that that from happening I would. Whats the lesson in shyt like that?
