Ye Religion Thread

[reaper]

nice response : P

i'm sorry you don't believe in evolution, the theory is excruciatingly logical, and backed by an equal amount of evidence.  you want to pick apart evolution, yet the gaps can be easily filled with logical/reasonable conclusions -gg

as far as the world being perfect, it's simply my opinion that god would want to do the best he could, and that god would have to be powerful enough to "do" pretty well

[metaL]

i reject every modern religion, and if god isn't good (in my opinion) i have absolutely no respect for god, and he can fuck off until he burns me in eternal flames : P

this is why you are an idiot. i never said i didnt believe in evolution. it seems you have simply made an idiot of yourself repeatedly, and now you are beginning to act as if you really arent THAT opposed to the arguments of the athiests. thats fine, whatever, but you really aren't fooling anyone kid.  but good luck with whatever pathetic attempt you are trying to make on this thread.

fooling anyone?  i'm not sure what you mean, I have beliefs, but  i'm not opposed to changing them.   although i haven't changed my mind, i still think god likely exists.  however, i did change my mind about global warming, but i still think we need more information before we make major decisions.  we don't know how much each factor (caused by humans) contributes to warming, or the significance of human causes that contribute to warming.  i'm simply interested in these topics, and i'd like to learn more, and listen to other people.  there's been some interesting discussion, i was particularly interested in any discussion of physics.  i'm an idiot?  if someone says i'm wrong, fine with me, i'm open to listen to what they have to say.  if you have something to say, you say it.

apes were supposed to have ruled the galaxi until these humans came along, even though we supposedly evolved from apes but yet apes still live on earth and so do we, and there is no inbetween species alive (cromagnon, homo habilis, etc).  everything was created by chance. wow, some people might even say we are lucky.

did you change your mind about evolution, or the above statement?  maybe you believe in evolution, but you are just phrasing statements like you don't.


saying matter/energy can't exist forever because infinity can't truly exists seems flawed.  if matter/energy doesn't exist forever something else should.  You can't get something from nothing, or it's not really nothing, and if something exists, time exists..

i had a feeling i had never used the word galaxi in a post, and i'd have to have been wasted to have said "apes ruled the galaxi".. so i did a quick search and i definitely did not make that statement.  nice job creating one for me though

i don't know why that quote doesn't show in search, but it's on page 54.  i'm not going to put words in your mouth.

Earth is just some alien kid's ant farm. He's probably on the verge of either taking us back to the pet store and demanding a full refund or whipping out the magnifying glass for an afternoon of amusement.

you can reasonably fill in the gaps of evolution fairly easily, i'd say claiming  there is no god isn't nearly as fulfilling.  but hey, everyone has their opinions, that's fine with me : )

There is no good reason to believe god has anything to do with evolution.

first  you have a major problem claiming we know nothing supernatural sparked the creation of the universe, or any other "ridiculous" notion. most people are inclined to think life wouldn't form under ridiculous odds.

Evolutionists agree.

yes, I do think god is involved in the creation of the universe (we'll see if this is like saying thor's hammer creates lighting).   maybe you don't believe in god to begin with, so you wouldn't invoke god as an explanation.

I never even mentioned god recently. I don

[metaL]

it doesnt matter. after all, everything we know of was created by mere cooincidence.. as well as the rest of the universe or what may lie beyond. the human race is just a big mistake basically, apes were supposed to have ruled the galaxi until these humans came along, even though we supposedly evolved from apes but yet apes still live on earth and so do we, and there is no inbetween species alive (cromagnon, homo habilis, etc).  everything was created by chance. wow, some people might even say we are lucky.

read the whole post, and read the page for that matter, you are so stupid you couldnt even see my sarcasm which would be obvious to a 5 year old. wow. 

[jeet]

You should also take into account what you actually mean by

[metaL]

wow, you guys must really feel proud to go dig up posts in a seemingly endless thread in order to make silly attempts to prove i've contradicted myself. lol, jeet, you're pretty ignorant.  I am aware of which species shared common ancestors.  EVOLUTION IS NOT JUST THE CONCEPT THAT HUMANS CAME FROM APES.  lmao. since you have all this time on your hands and have no life, go ahead and read it all a few more times, and maybe you'll see that the post you just made served no purpose. 

[Whirlingdervish]

I wouldn't assume that we are descended from apes, just because we are genetically similar to them..

It seems much more productive to think of it like this:

We evolved from a creature that modern apes also evolved from.

Actually I was merely stating a fact, though I will admit my response was also fueled in part by your obtrusive attitude. You really need to learn to communicate better. By the way, please tell me how:

but im sorry, i do not feel that i am the result of "millions of years of adaptations".

And:

Are not contradictions.

I am aware of which species shared common ancestors. EVOLUTION IS NOT JUST THE CONCEPT THAT HUMANS CAME FROM APES.
