Do you or do you not believe in God and why?

"There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,
Than are dreamt of in your philosophy."
- Hamlet, Act 1 Scene 5

That quote sums up why I am an agnostic: there is too much that no one can explain on either side of the argument.

You're making sense. Actually every body in the world is an agnostic, because as much they may try to bullsh*t you otherwise, they simply don't know.

I know you're old and possibly senile..... but forgetting your old buddy? and dancing partner???-:smile:-:smile:-:smile:

You're dwelling on an old chapter..........he's been dormant for months and I'm a great advocator of "let sleeping dogs lie".

Gotta love George Carlin, I think he's got it pegged as good as anyone.

Ya, to bad he's dead. I enjoyed his humor.

Maybe God smote him.

I've said many times that 'we' don't know, but no reason to make up answers, not my style, I'm satisfied

to just say, we don't know.

but we have learned many many things over the years that were not known a long time ago, and now they

are evidence from science that has been proven, so throughout time it will be known, I will gather

the real evidence that has arrived, and watch for more, no guessing for me, no made up stories.

but I will never know everything, science doesn't work that fast, if I'm lucky I
have 20 years left, I don't have time.

earthquakes, thunder, hurricanes, many years ago were unexplainable, and caused fear in people, thought
it was gods, now they are explainable and we all understand why they happen.

Did I not already make that point?

Did you? I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

Did you? I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

Depends on the thread and page.

 

[DaSleeper]

Depends on the thread and page.

And the direction the prevailing opinions are blowing.....-:smile:

 

[JLM]

Did you? I have no idea what point you're trying to make.

Oh, sorry, I thought my point is quite easy to understand. Whereas some people say there is no God, I just think that "God" can be any one or all of many different manifestations.

Could *I* be God then?

As it pertains to me, not friggin' likely, but if you think so in your case go for it.

Why don't you think I'm God?



(careful, if I am God, denying it will get you sent to hell)

No. You're a girl. Everybody knows girls can't be God.

 

[JLM]

And the direction the prevailing opinions are blowing.....-:smile:

That is quite true, there's possibly an iota of truth in virtually all opinions. How many different minds went into making the first light bulb?

 

[petros]

No. You're a girl. Everybody knows girls can't be God.

Only half a God just like a male.

Sorry if I've been remiss, but actually I haven't given it that much thought. It's only what YOU think about yourself that counts.

No. You're a girl. Everybody knows girls can't be God.

But that wouldn't preclude her from being a goddess!

 

[Corduroy]

No. You're a girl. Everybody knows girls can't be God.

The highest glass ceiling. :shock:

YOU ARE FORGIVEN, CHILD. DO NOT OFFEND YOUR GOD AGAIN.

 

[Tecumsehsbones]

The highest glass ceiling. :shock:

It's always amused me that the Abrahamic religions have an attitude toward women that is best represented by a badly scrawled "NO GURLZ ALOWED" sign on a treehouse.

 

[JLM]

YOU ARE FORGIVEN, CHILD. DO NOT OFFEND YOUR GOD AGAIN.

Not a problem! Just send a list of stuff that offends you and I'll stick it on the bathroom mirror!
