The Religion Thread
Weird god botherers are intellectually deficient, so it's probably best we didn't sign him.
Religion is, and will always be, one of the greatest curses on humanity.

You have your right to believe or not believe and should not be judged for it.
To call him intellectually deficient is unfair and if that is what makes him happy then so be it

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Well not really. To believe in God means that you accept the existance of strange supernatural beings in the absense of ANY evidence. It just beggers belief, and can only exist in a climate ignorance.CMG wrote:Your lack of belief in god is no different to someones belief in a god.Albi wrote:Weird god botherers are intellectually deficient, so it's probably best we didn't sign him.

Not believing in god is simple - no evidence. Show me even one piece of evidence and I'll look an it. When you can't, I'll stick to my non-belief. Any no, non-belief isn't a belief.

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Gee, let's wait till we get some rigorous debate happening then we can say religion is bad. Also, religion and belief in God aren't tied up together. Religion is a much bigger thing than belief in God. Religion causes problems because it is exclusively based in beliefs and these beliefs often conflict with those of other people.
Religion on its own is not bad, it is simply when conflicts are caused by religion that we can say there is a problem with religion.

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Easy on the bashing people who go to church, are religious and believe in God. I go to church, am religious and believe in God. Insulting people for their beliefs/non-beliefs is just ignorant. Just because you believe or don't believe in something doesn't make you any better or worse than someone else.
So because this issue tends to provoke rather strong responses in people and it's something that is extremely important in my life I respectfully request that you please do not continue with any derogatory remarks about religion. Thank you.

2. Where did life come from? (and no, evolution isn't the answer, as this can only supposedly work if you have life to start with).
3. Why is there no evidence for evolution? Why in this day and age do scientists have no idea how evolution could happen (because natural selection/mutations don't add new genetic information to organisms which is required for evolution to occur).
What really beggars belief and reeks of ignorance is a non-belief in God. Here's what atheists believe.
Billions of years ago, nothing went 'bang'. After billions more years of prehistoric rain falling on the rocky earth, life somehow appeared. Then for a still unknown reason, this ancient single-celled organism was able to make itself better over billions of years turning into billions of different oragnisms. We don't know how this is scientifically possible, but it happened. How do we know it happened? Because we want it to have happened without God. No God means no consequences. I can do what i want.
Somehow, reptiles 'evolved' into birds. They turned cold blood warm somehow. They grew wings and found the genetic information for feathers somehow. They developed a new avian lung and breathing system somehow. They got light-weight bones for flight somehow. They detached their upper mandible from their skull somehow.
Have you ever wondered why there are NO reptiles with beaks? No reptiles with feathers? No reptiles with wings? No reptiles with warm blood? You would think there would at least be an intermediate organism between bird and reptile. Strange that.
But people don't want to hear this or think about this. They don't want to believe in any form of "God", so they cling to a theory which hasnt found any evidence (and yes, there actually isnt any - try me!).

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Seriously?! I have very strong opinions about religion, but do we really need to get that far off topic in a rugby league forum?
Thats the kind of thing best kept for other areas of your life, not debated online. Just like in real life, its bound to end in some nasty conflict.
Mods/admin?????? (I'm not trying to stiffle discussion, just prefer I didn't have to get religious stuff on the GH).

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
believing in God doesnt need to entail defying logic and denouncing scientific thesis like evolution. For many people believing in God, or being religious just means living life, or believing in living an ethical life that corrolates the teachings of a particular faith. Disparaging people for being religious, or being ignorant on account of their religion, is ignorant in itself. For the record, i am catholic, but by no means a bible toter.

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Absolutely. It is also much the same as saying that peanuts are bad. For some people, they are deadly while for others they are not. Simply put, a peanut growing out in the country with no one around isn't doing any harm but it may do when it is consumed by a person with an allergy to it.Albi wrote:That's like saying that the plague on it's own isn't a bad thing - it just gets nasty when it infects someone.TiTTieS_[CNTDN] wrote:Gee, let's wait till we get some rigorous debate happening then we can say religion is bad.

Re: Mickey keeps the faith
Believe me, both beliefs are as 'blind' as each other. Neither are actually science, merely interpretations of past events. No-one can prove the earth to be 6,000 years old or 4,000,000,000 years old, because no-one was there at the time.Albi wrote:Uh oh! A young-earth creationist!!

Hardly concrete evidence...quite a lot of 'probably' this and 'probably' that. The fossil record isn't evidence in and of itself. Just because a lizard is buried below a bird doesnt mean they are related. I wonder what a worldwide flood wouldve done 4,000 odd years ago? I think it would bury sea creatures, reptiles, mammals, and birds in that order. What do we find in the fossil record? Just that!
So this doesnt prove evolution, or prove creation - it's two separate interpretations of past events. And just because Archaeopteryx is similar to reptiles and birds doesnt necessarily make it an intermediate. The Platypus looks like a half-duck half-beaver...doesnt mean it's evolving. There are some strange animals in this world

I find it mildly amusing that a thread with discussion on global warming gets deleted while a thread which includes offensive remarks about faith and religion is ignored.
Albi, when you say "Religion is, and will always be, one of the greatest curses on humanity.", it is not only inflammatory to a number of people on this forum (including me), it also takes away from any reasonable argument you may have on the topic.

I personally think evolution is, and always will be, one of the greatest curses on humanity.
Evolution ‘enlightens’ people like Hitler that blacks and Jews are the less-evolved inferior ‘race’, and to help the human *'s evolutionary process by selecting more favourable attributes like blonde hair and blues eyes.
Evolution ‘enlightens’ people that there are no absolutes. No definite right or wrong. No ultimate justice or accountability for our actions. No point in living. Is it any wonder that millions of people commit suicide every day? *'s the point of living if we are just random accidents? Is it any wonder the vast majority of school-killers are wearing pro-evolution T-shirts, promoting natural selection?
Finnish high-school killer (and hardcore evolutionist) Pekka-Eric Auvinen said:
“Today the process of natural selection is totally misguided. Modern human race has not only betrayed its ancestors, but the future generations too… *'s time to put natural selection and survival of the fittest back on track! … I am prepared to fight and die for my cause. I, as a natural selector, will eliminate all who I see unfit, disgraces of the human race and failures of natural selection.â€
If evolution is true, are people like Hitler and Auvinen really misguided? Why should the human race ‘waste’ money and resources on the diseased and disabled? Aren’t they detrimental to our further evolution?
Ultimately, if both theories lack concrete proof, which one should you choose? The one that promotes no meaning of life, no right and wrong, no justice? Or the one that offers eternal life? Regardless of which theory is correct, which one has the biggest consequences?
(and for the record, i think global warming is a load of bollocks, but im not gunna argue that point because i dont really care about it...i wish the world was warmer anyway)

All hail Xenu
I bow down to thee oh great Nickman, the wisest of the wise, your political adroitness is unsurpassed, your sagacity is unmatched, your wisdom shines through on this forum amongst us mere mortals as bright as your scalp under the light of a full moon, never shall I doubt your analytical prowess again. You are my hero, my lord, my savior, may you accept my offerings so you continue to bless us with your genius.
