    Your last question is asinine and will be treated as such.

    Why? The guy clearly instructs people in the bible to kill their own children. Why wouldn’t you do it?

    As for your other none-answers:

    What evidence exists for your deity that doesn’t exist for any of the others?—- I answered that you do not like the basic truth that governs Christianity, period.

    ok, You didn’t answer that one…

    Why would a perfect deity’s divinely inspired work not be perfect & transcendent?—- Because God did not and that is all anyone knows.
    At the same time, as you wish to play god, how could God do that?

    What separates your faith from the faith of those who follow other religions?—- There is only one God of gods. Anything ruled by committee has no ruler.

    Says who? Every holy book of just about every religion out there claims to be the words of the one true god. The Koran claims that Allah is the one true god, what if you picked the wrong one? Even the bible admits there are other gods. Didn’t you read that part?

    Religion is largely determined by culture & geography, why would your god choose only to save those who live in certain areas? —- Nothing in the Bible says any such thing.
    You completely missed the point: You’re only a christian because of where you were born & the fairy tales your parents fell for. If you were born in India you’d be a hindu, if you were born in Saudi & parts of Detroit you’d be muslim. Hasn’t this occurred to you yet?

    Can you accurately & completely define the following: God, Soul, Faith, Spirit.
    God: A title given to the supreme deity.

    Who or what created god? —- Like all things always has been and always will be.
    Another none answer… Are you expecting us to believe this sky fairy of yours sat on his duff for BILLIONS of years & about 6000 years ago decided to scare the crap out of some Arab wandering around the desert on this pretty much irrelevant planet?

    Because the word means only one thing.

    Not only do you utterly fail to comprehend the difference between the every day & scientific definitions of “theory”.. but you are also demonstrating a complete lack of comprehension of what you are being told in this thread.
    Go back to school, maybe start over with 3rd grade. hth.

    Still waiting for you to answer the questions in my previous post (#204). If you can’t answer those simple questions, you really don’t belong in this thread at all. You obviously read my post as you replied to part of it, why not answer the simple questions.. particularly the last one….?

    What you have listed is opinion, your opinion, that these actually apply to what you do not like.

    Christianity is totally based on faith, not proof of any sort; whereas, I guess actually, theories in science are just as much faith as science.

    There’s your problem right there. You utterly fail to comprehend the difference between the everyday definition of “theory” & the scientific definition. I did ask you to pay close attention to the cognitive dissonance part… Why didn’t you?

    The only reason you follow which ever religion you choose to is because of where you were born.
    Let me ask you a few more questions:

    What evidence exists for your deity that doesn’t exist for any of the others?

    Why would a perfect deity’s divinely inspired work not be perfect & transcendent?

    What separates your faith from the faith of those who follow other religions?

    Religion is largely determined by culture & geography, why would your god choose only to save those who live in certain areas?

    Can you accurately & completely define the following: God, Soul, Faith, Spirit.

    Who or what created god?

    Would you kill your only son if god asked you to?

    Lastly, I have no idea whether the wheels were originally painted. Anodising or lacquer would protect the metal However, after filling the corroded bits, paint is the only option so I’d try and get my eyes on an original wheel and trust them to match the colour to the car wheel colour.

    Dow 7 or Dow 9 coating. If you try anodizing magnesium parts they take on the consistency of sticky buns.

    As with most religious ideas, it’s ludicrous. But, if it eases a few people short passage in this world, and doesn’t harm others, then fair play to them. 🙂

    Unfortunately it does harm others. In Texas recently the creationist lunatics tried to get it taught in science classes as an alternative to evolution/geology/palentology etc. They even tried to stop evolution being taught in schools altogether.

    OK now give the proof for your science based humanist dogma.

    Here ya go, it’s fairly basic psychology

    Delusional schizophrenia (hearing voices, ie- god speaking to you):

    http://psychcentral.com/disorders/delusional-disorder-symptoms/

    Cognitive dissonance (ignoring evidence such as evolution, geology, paleontology etc that conflicts with your beliefs):

    http://psychology.about.com/od/cognitivepsychology/f/dissonance.htm

    Confirmation bias (interpreting things so they agree with your beliefs etc):

    http://www.sciencedaily.com/articles/c/confirmation_bias.htm

    Pay close attention to the Cognitive Dissonance part.

    Then why do we increasingly hear atheists:
    -proclaim their superiority
    -tell us over and over how bad all religions are.. maybe because they hold back science, education, medicine & force laws on the rest of us because they can’t STFU for one second?
    -how advanced they are by not believing in anything? Atheists believe in all sorts of things. What they don’t do is believe a bunch of superstitious nonsense

    Really, threads like this are just as strident as the any evangelical missionary.

    Fine, you don’t believe…give yourself a cookie. Fine, you do believe, STFU & stay the hell out of childrens minds.
    But quit telling us how smart you are. Are you claiming knowledge & education are bad for people? If education is against your beliefs, then your beliefs are hiding something from you.
    Accept the fact that some people just have faith. Faith is just an excuse used by people who are too indoctrinated to think for themselves & a licence they give each other so they don’t appear to be blithering idiots.
    Accept it as “no skin off your nose” and lead your life….and allow others to who disagree.

    hth.

    Religion is easily summed up. It is delusional schizophrenia that leads to cognitive bias & causes cognitive dissonance. If you are fine with those symptoms kindly keep them to yourself & leave reality for the rest of us.
