    That is a question you will receive the answer to.

    On the contrary, it is the exact opposite.

    how do you know?

    what if i were to say "I do not acknowledge the existence of jesus Fucking christ"?
    what if i were to say "jesus Fucking christ died on the cross, and then he stayed dead, end of story"?

    how many mutually exclusive deities are there anyway?

    Eh, maybe. But what existence is that, precisely? I posit that the existence being acknowledged is only the presence of these words in our lexicon of profanity, making your point above pretty meaningless. I can't believe you didn't recognize this when you wrote that. You can't be that weak-minded.

    You think you could make a compelling comment on this topic without using any disingenuity? I highly doubt it.

    Then you would be transpiring a message of atheism with some profanity which is not what you wrote earlier.

    Not really, my only point is how can you Damn something or use the Lords name in vain if you believe the subject you are drawing from does not exist.

    evidently there are some contexts in which he does not exist.

    God talked to me. He told me the original post was spot on and most of the others were idiotic.




    He also told me not to post in this thread.

    Great Caesar's Ghost, you have a point, by the Blessed Virgin's sacred g-string.

    Assuming,that is, that you exist.

    Of course it helps, that all religious beliefs have an explanation for "spiritual moments", which makes it even easier for those with weak minds to have faith in nonsense.

    well, what do you believe in that can't be proven? Evolution? Quantum physics? How airplanes fly? That OJ killed his wife?

    I don't have any beliefs that are based on blind faith. I don't know if OJ killed his wife. He probably did, but I don't know. I believe in evolution, because it has been proven, and can be seen with our own eyes. Quantum physics trips me the fuck out. Some of the results have been mind boggling. I don't have faith that there are multiple quantum universes, I think it's possible, but I wouldn't pray on that possibility.

    Faith is a disease.

    I too thought like many of you; religion is for the weak, how could it be true...

    Two years ago I started a ufology vs. religion research project and in all honesty it was just for fun, as I dug deeper into the secrets of history (and that will freak the shit out of anyone) I learned it is not of the week minded but only the strongest minds that can comprehend the truths.

    Make a long story short, I tried linking and/or separating science with religion until I found a quote from Albert Einstein "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind". These words make more sense than any I have ever studied prior.

    I can't shove information down your throat and expect you to go "WOW, I now see!"

    What I can do is tell you life after death has been scientifically proven, there is a divine world and you can communicate with the Angels, all you have to do is learn and listen.

    Before you judge Christians, you should do the research.

    wow! Life after death has been scientifically proven!

    With that statement you expose yourself for the true idiot that you are.

    FTW.
    I hate it when my Christian friends say stupid shit that is based on faith, that they think everyone should agree is factual.

    Back in the summer of 1953 Albert Einstein convened with then Pope Pius XII in Geneva with the intent of discussing Einstein's theories as they relate to religion in general and Catholicism specifically. Pope Pius saw some of Einstein's ideas as a threat to the practices of the church and the faith of its believers and requested that Einstein endorse Catholicism in some public manner. Einstein was reluctant to do so yet in the end was willing to acknowledge the existence of a higher power. From this encounter we are given his famous quote;

    "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind."

    Before his death Einstein admitted that his endorsing religion or even God is a mistake that he regretted deeply.

    Here is another Einstein quote from the exact same article, "...human fantasy created gods in man's own image..."

    The title is Science, Philosophy and Religion, A Symposium (1941).
