Seriously? You follow my epic, factual news story... with some bullshit about a kid talking to a hairdresser?
This is why Atheists think Christians are a joke
How about the theory of evolution of Charles Darwin, is that true? We came from apes? since you are justifying your own thought scientifically and mentally, did someone proved it? then give some proof who created the universe, because I believe God created the whole universe. If you will answer about theories specifically big bang theory, since it is a "theory" still no one proved it and it will still remain a theory. This has all been discussed ad nauseam (try reading a few posts before making yourself look foolish) 1) Yes, evolution is a proven fact 2) Nobody said we came from apes, evolution posits that chimpanzees and humans share a common ancestor that was neither human nor ape 3) Yes, it has been proven as well as anything non-mathematical can be proven in science, including branches of archaeology, genetics, and embryonic comparisons 4) Theory does not mean hypothesis... Theory is the equivalent of law without the accompanying mathematical proof Most people overlook embryological evidence for evolution... If you ever wondered why humans get the hiccups... it's because long, long ago... we used to be FISHYou can literally watch the evolution from species to species as an embryo/baby grows inside it's mother

Ok, which one of you jokers just posted this video? I know it's someone reading this forum, so speak up or pm me if you are shy... Idaho Republicans Want The Bible In Science Class https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXFY29ZRHB8This is pathetic man This is embarassing on the world stage I almost don't want to do this story because I don't want people in the UK, and Australia and Canada to go, "Really?... Really guys?... That's what you're doing? You're gonna fucking use the bible in science classes?!?" This predates science... What are you doing? This is a sick disgusting joke You'll never see republicans run to separation of church and state faster than when you say, "Great!... let's break out the Koran and the Hadith!... Somebody grab me the Bhagavad Gita while we're at it!" You have to depoliticize education, and just let the people who know what the fuck they are talking about make the curriculum... but when we don't have that, and we have these dunces doing it, we become an embarrassment to the entire world

Back when I considered myself a Christian (I was 12), I asked my pastor about the dating... he actually had a decent argument (as far as Christian apologetics goes) But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day (this was how he justified dinosaurs... thousands of years between day 2 and day 3 of creation story gives time for dinosaurs before man was created) Realistically, that still doesn't add up... even if the 6 days were 6000 years... that is still a far cry from 13.8 billion... Moloch was a Christian? Damn I wouldn't have say that Well it's rather a good explanation if you forget the "a thousand" part. The text litteraly says "well we don't know anything about the date and we don't give a fuck you know" ^^ You would be surprised at how many outspoken Atheists were indoctrinated as children... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aron_Ra rejected the indoctrination around the same age as I did, 12-14 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matt_Dillahunty rejected the indoctrination much later in life... he was actually studying to be a preacher when he lost the faithHere is a video of him talking about it: Conversion: Baptist To Atheist - Matt Dillahunty Part 1/3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZUpMuRg9wQThere is even a website devoted to Christian preachers who lost the faith, and don't know what to do... http://clergyproject.org/Are you a religious professional who no longer holds to supernatural beliefs? Have you remained in vocational ministry, secretly hiding away your non-belief? Are you struggling over where to go from here with your life and career?

There does seem to be a correlation, and it is that CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere lag temperature increases in the environment. If you are speaking about the 800 year lag between rise in temperature and rise in CO2 of the ice core samples... That is likely cause by... it takes ~800 years for animals to populate the newly warmed areas of the planet... You see... animals exhale CO2... and as the temperature increases, they have more land mass, and begin to spread out and populate the new regions... as they multiply, the atmospheric CO2 increases... Atmospheric CO2 throughout history has been a relationship between the number of animals (CO2 sources) and plants (CO2 sinks)... with perhaps the occasional volcano chiming in every few hundred/thousand years That being said, the same ice core samples show that the Earth has previously had CO2 levels as high as 4000-8000ppm (10-20x today's value), while the temperatures were lower than today... I really don't see a correlation beyond animals exhale CO2...

So... the pope recently said that Catholics are allowed to use condoms to help prevent the spread of the Zika virus...
Why would Catholics need condoms? Is he implying that God won't protect them from Zika?

As of now, i am not fond of any of the candidates. However, i am most impressed with Donald Trump because of how he handled the criticism in the begining of his campaign. He is now an influental figure in the run for presidency, and is no longer a joke
Trump is as much of a joke as Arnold Schwarzenegger running for governor... he didn't know anything about politics, and passed some really stupid/uninformed laws because he had no clue what he was doing... Do you know any of Trump's policies? He doesn't normally talk about them... because he doesn't have any... he's running on the platform of hatemonger... He could end up winning then. Americans are hatemongers. That is what he is counting on, given the statements he has made about Mexicans, Muslims, et al

You are intirely welcome to continue to show your ignorance...
The word you are looking for is "entirely" I'm sorry you are not familiar with the context of that biblical passage (Matthew 5:18), but it has nothing to do with local laws... Jesus is clearly referring to the biblical law of the Old Testament... specifically, the 613 commandments... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/613_commandments#Maimonides.27_list

nobody knows that God DOESN'T exist Wrong, I know this well beyond any doubt (reasonable or otherwise) Both, prove that God doesn't exist, and prove that you know it. Based solely on the lack of evidence, the hypothesis that, "the Christian God exists" is rejected... the burden of proof is on you, not me Once you include the counter-examples, it becomes obvious that there has never been a God of any definition, Christian or otherwise No burden. The proof belongs to science. The proof lies in combining cause and effect, with complex universe, with universal entropy. These prove the existence of God. Are you Marco Rubio?

While I understand your point, I fully reject it...
Religion is a disease, it is a mental illness that needs to be cured
Religion makes people do crazy things because they are not thinking clearly...
9/11!
Only a religious person flies a plane into a building, killing hundreds of people, while thinking they are doing God's work!!!
I am not here to argue in your petty political battles, but that is a terrorist group, proclaiming they have the true view of Islam, as their guise. It's very much political and a scare factor, the religious section to attract more followers. You can spin it however you wish, but the truth is true, and you know it is... You can blame religious extremists all you like, but there would not be religious extremists without religion Christians are no better... the witch burnings were not long ago... Christians also advocated for slavery, and currently advocate for homophobia, and intolerance of Muslims

Alright.
I was born into a heavy christian catholic family. I love my family very much.
But I consider myself agnostic.
There are pluses to both Atheism, and being religious.
A plus to Atheism allows you to not fall prey to wasting your time with rituals, so you can do more things in the day, and focus on the betterment of you and those around you. A plus to Religion is that it allows people, educated and not, to have a system of beliefs, that allows them a pushing factor through tough life, and allows them to accomplish things.
It is perfectly okay to be religious, or have a system of beliefs that get you through the day. It's also alright to not believe. To take science, facts and physics into account for the happenings of the day.
HOWEVER.
This thread is the exact reason why people hate atheists, and religious people alike.
We have atheists here, trying to say all religion is bad, and that the bible is a evil book, and flipping the bird to all religious, because they think science is superior, and they think that allows them to be the cocky douchebags that they are.
We also have people here, saying that atheists are completely wrong, that creationism is the wholly true way, that evolution does not exist, that they are far superior, and that allows them to talk here like they know everything, even though we have fucking solid proof of evolution and the Big Bang.
SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Besides the fact that being in a conversation with any of you lot drops your IQ by 80, and gives me a headache, who gives a flying shit?
Let people live their lives, let people own and be proud of their culture.
Is it okay when people use their culture to hold it over others, and commit crimes against humanities because they believe they are right? No the fuck it isn't.
If we didn't have this stupid fuck AF_Newbie, , and moloch, spamming the forum with these repetitive anti-christian threads, saying they are superior, it's no better than the people like the Westboro Baptist Church, who take their interpretations, and their beliefs, and hold them over others, like they are gods, no pun intended.
Learn how to co-exist, god damn.

God says gays are an abomination and you are commanded to murder them!
If you disobey God... are you truly a Christian?
But, if you follow God's command... you will surely be sent to prison, because God was wrong about homosexuality, and constantly contradicts himself over whether murder is right or wrong...
Fortunately, in the US at least, we have a system of laws which have nothing to do with religion... and if you kill a homosexual, you will not pass go and collect $200, but instead go directly to jail
Show this command for any Christian to do any murder. Rather, it is you who would lie to make atheism look good, and Christians look bad. God's moral laws are against murder. Since atheists don't have any moral laws, they can legitimately do murder and lie about Christians... by their own legitimacy, of course. Haven't you read the bible? If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. I haven't ever found the word "Christian" in that passage. Why are you lying? What are you smoking? Does the bible use the word Christian even a single time? Anywhere? Why must you constantly prove your ignorance of anything that is actually in the bible? The word, Christian, was not even invented until long after the bible was written I can't really blame you for being ignorant. It's in your nature. Believers were called Christians first in Antioch, easily within the first hundred years after Jesus ascended. You were the one who implied that the word Christian appears in the bible... I haven't ever found the word "Christian" in that passage. Why are you lying? 1) Did you forget posting this? 2) Where can I get some of that shit you are smoking? What? Just how ignorant can you, a religion major, get? Don't you realize that there is a difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament? Haven't you realized that the N.T. is about love and salvation through peace, while much of the O.T. is about love and salvation often through war? No Christians in the O.T. No directives for violence in the N.T. Are you saying that Christians don't believe the Old Testament is the word of God? For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled While the NT is slightly more moral than the OT, it still has major flaws... it still fully endorses slavery, homophobia, etc
