If the light keeps getting brighter, did early christians have it wrong?
by digderidoo inwe are all familiar with the light getting brighter.
new 'truths' replacing old 'truths'.. but what i have been thinking about recently, albeit 12 years too late, is that if that light has been getting brighter over the years, surely centruries ago the early christians got it wrong!!!
well they did if we follow that line of thinking.

Are Believers Truly Humble?
by serotonin_wraith inif you are non religious, do you still feel those with religion show a higher level of humility than others in society?.
on the face of it, i feel most would answer in the affirmative.. but breaking it down, i find it harder and harder to accept.
in fact, i'd call it the opposite of humility.

I believe in the possibility of an afterlife that everyone, good and bad, goes to but have no proof of it. I am a wishful thinker that might be right, or I might be wrong. What I do know is this, and it may be true of many die hard religionists which I'm not, my religion/philosophy of life gives me peace and happiness. I do not have false hope as I am open to possibilities, not absolutes. My friend said that once you believe something, you've closed your mind to other possibilities. Belief is a dangerous thing. I prefer posibilities as they can change.

WT Wizard,
I was thinking that maybe using the term "holy books" would include more religions into what you are saying. The Jews might be humble by taking an honest look at their talmud and the Muslims might be more humble taking a closer look at their Quran to see if those books actually are full of truth or crap. There are so many holy books of different religions that their followers might be more humble in taking a closer look. I loved your post. It makes so much sense to honestly and without blinders take a gut check at those holy books, of which the Bible is but one.

Not the ones I've spoken with. They tend to be quite judgemental of my choice of religion/philosophy of life.

Whats wrong with obeying God?
by real one inmany who post here are always talking about they don't need god and that they don't believe in god and that he dosen't exist.
god does not ask us to do unreasonable things.
most of the things he ask us to do protects our lives.. why don't people get that?

As one that used to obey a needy and demanding god, I totally understand why people need to do this. They need hope for something really good and they need to feel needed. God of the Bible supplies this in abundunce. I believe we all have the need to feel needed and also something better to hope for, be it by serving a god or creating their own luck and good life. The results may be the same: happy people. For my part, I cannot live a Christian life of servitude to the invisible power. My eyes see what nurishes me and all of life. I honor nature that nurtures me. Hey, it works for me! Everyone needs to believe in something.

I do not believe in the god of the Bible.
I live after my flesh with glee!
I recognize that there are good or bad consequences to everything I do.
I attempt to live with good consequences as my aim.
I am quite content not cowtowing to an invisible, imaginary entity that won't talk to me but according to the Bible demands that I talk to it.
I refuse to believe in the god of the Bible having a penis and therefore being called "He."

I have a problem obeying someone who I think most likely doesn't exist. I can't do it. Might as well obey the Easter Bunny and eat chocolate and lay eggs.
