... i approach from a biblical angle... whether it be common sense, common knowledge, and when applicable use science in support of!!
Science and common sense have little to do with biblical angles.
.... this is for your benefit...
To my benefit? Is that an insult or just naivity?
I think you are very naive to think you can convince someone into believing something you believe in.
I can also argument to "your benefit" but you will surely not see it that way
There is no god, period. But i'm not gonna be in your face about it, you can believe in whatever you like,
BUT when you try to push it, i will say my opinion loud and clear. You're not the first to try that, surely not the last,
but be advised most of these people eventually got quite the verbal slap from me.
each of us have the ability to express the knowledge which we are armed with.... you too can utilise scripture if you so choose..
the fact that you dont... is not my loss
It certainly ain't my loss either. And don't even try to make believe religion is knowledge, it's belief, nothing more nothing less.
Scriptures haven't in the slightest anything to do with knowledge,
unless it's the kind of knowledge a Trekkie or Star Wars fan would have about the lore of their story universe.
But if you want to make believe how Theology is anything like science, i think you are making a fool of yourself.
Serious question, how old are you?
Not that it's any of your business, but in my lifetime i've experienced more than a fair share of life and death,
i've seen the best and the worst humanity can bring up.
And one thing i always noticed is how religion makes people think they have an afterlife, how they are guided by a higher entitiy that judges over them,
which makes people become lazy about making the best of their lifes WHILE THEY LIVE. Which is absurd.
But then again, it's every one's own choice what they do with their lives.
if i challenge your thinking... it will either make you go ahhhhhhh!!!! or aaarrrrrgggggghhhhh!!!
emotions aside you will either accept or reject whats presented!!
this is the essence of free will!!
You're not challenging anything here, except for your own personal challenge to try and convince me of something i can't be convinced of,
You're only making me wonder for how much longer this planet will have to endure the clamp of religion.
Oh wait, you are challenging something in me, my ability to stay calm and nice.
So without further ado, i will not discuss religion in this thread anymore.
Open a new thread if you want to discuss theology or scriptures,
i'm sure some will join you in the conversation, but continuing to do so here will only result in everyone ignoring you here.
