  i started a thread after i finished the first chapter of this book entitled something like, i'm an atheist.

  i finished chapter three and i have to backtrack a bit, but i also feel the need to explain why since i was so vocal.. first, let me say that i think everyon should read the first two chapters of the god delusion by richard dawkins.

  he brings up some very important points about religion and about science's place in our world.

  You and I are arguing over nothing. Dawkins only believes what he chooses to believe. I do not believe in a God that created us with a purpose for us. We all have the singularity to over come the beginning of time. To believe science one must believe that something came out of nothing. To believe in God the same problem has to be over come.

  Some day in the future we will look back on our understanding of the universe and laugh at how stupid we are today. this is one thing we both agree on. Religion is bad and the root of almost all the evils on the earth today. As for the 70% we call dark matter several brave scientist are trying to find out. One of the theory's, theorist are looking at is an unknown state of energy that may be full of living worlds and living beings we do not recognize right now that may be interacting with us unbeknown to ourselves. That explains everything. Time will tell and open mind scientist now are trying to figure it out. When they do then maybe religion and science will find middle ground.

  There was a show last year on the Science Channel I believe that talked about this. Even Stephen Hawkins and that Chinese looking Theorist I forget his name was featured on it. The Chinese theorist said it was like the scientist hundreds of years ago that ignored the fact the earth of revolving around the Sun. He then said long held ideas are hard to change scientist today can be as stubborn as those during and after Galileo time.

  Sounds like he was talking about Dawkins and maybe even you.

  He has no PROOF either. I was reading just today that 70% of the universe is made up of some unknown matter that we can not seeor understand. So when you say there is no proof, you have no proof they are deceiving themselveseither. But yet we know 70% of the universe is unknown but it is ther. Be opened minded because we do not have all the answers yet. We may never have all of them.

  I'll give you an example my wife woke me up one morning and told me my nephew was going to be killed by someone that will put a gun in his mouth and shooting him. She was hysterical, I did not believe her. She demanded I tell him. I said the same thing that Hawkings would of said to her. That all Bull shit you could not know this. That very day five hours later he was murdered by his best friend. The friend put a gun in his mouth and said do you trust me? My nephew said yes I do and then pulled to trigger. This is the truth, my wife has done this over and over again. She woke up one morning and said my niece was going to be killed that weekend by a drunk driver. It happened that weekend just like she said. So the 70% of the universe might be the reason she can do this.

  Don't be so closed minded nothing gets in there.

  Prince and Lindsay Lohan Partying?

  just finished reading an article in the morning newspaper about lindsay lohan cheking herself into the wonderland centre for drug and alchohol rehab.. it is sad to see such a beautiful young person getting to need such services with so much of her life ahead.. but the part of the report that made me sit up and think was this, i quote........ "ms lohan was in hospital on january 3 for appendicitis but was seen out partying a couple of hours after she was discharged.. since, she has been seen out almost every night and on monday she attended prince's post golden-globes bash at the beverley wilshire hotel.

  a fellow party goer said she obviously was the worse for wear.".

  well i'm spewing over this and here are my questions then....... if prince is a jw what the hell is he doing organising a large function without the elders approval?.

  do you have any funny pet pics?

  misanthropic's puppy pics reminded me of a picture i had of our cat chillin' in a sink.

  it's ironic in that she is extremely afraid of water - even little drops that splash on her.

  he's 7 weeks old, he's a chocolate lab and i named him tony.

  his eye isn't messed up it just looks that way because i was trying to get his face to look forward while i pushed the button all at once.

  he kept me up all night last night crying, but hopefully just like with my beagle he will outgrow that.

  I am not unclear on any of this. Dawkins is closed minded and closed minded people only hear what they want. Like for example Dawkins in his book talks about why religion evolved/ He never even considered that we might be in the process of proving it is of no value to humans showing that religion is harmful. So some day down the road we will evolve to the point religion is not needed at all.

  another Ex; in his book he says any person that has an experience such as hearing voices in a room and that person jumps to the conculsion the supernatural did it is somehow dumb. How can he make the claim the person has deceived his mind. There are many variables that come into play but Hawkins dismisses any personal accounts as mind play. Not very scientific he does not know if life takes different forms maybe we share this world with other life forms. Somethings in this world have yet to be discovered, look at life that lives in solid rocks only a few years ago we did not know this. Life that lives on the bottom of the ocean around volcanic vents. He demises things he does not understand into a reality that makes sense to him, he is closed minded. His God is science.

  The answer from the legel department was it is not true.

  The legal department runs the Watchtower now everthing is supost to go through it first. The Governing Body only can do what the Legel lets them do. This department has a brain and no doubt can see the stupidity in saying this.

  First off I liked his book. I do not believe the bible at all. It is just a book.

  He jumps to conclusions that have not yet been proven one way or the other yet the only difference he is willing to admit they are just ideas that make sense at this time. So he admits with science we need to investigate the known facts and if we find out if it is wrong then change. He forgets then to admit it is just a theory. A theory is an idea not yet proven.

  Yet he slams every religionist as stupid closed minded towards facts. He is blinded against any religion as much as the religionist are towards him. No give and his part at all.

  Same arrogance I see in religionist I see in Dawkins.

  The only thing I think like Dawkins does. Good Book
