Man I think like that all the time. The only thing that makes me feel there may be a God is the design in creation and the infinitisimal sp? odds against some sort of quantum vacuum fluctuation starting it all. Hell, even that would require a preexisting quantum state and perhaps space for it to occur in. As to faith, I think it is a built-in (by whom?) self-help mechanism. Maybe God only pops up every few thousand years. That would only be a couple of days to him. So insigmificant yet suupposedly every hair on your head is numbered and you are worth more than many sparrows and are created a little lower than angels. I used to think there was no result from praying because my prayers were hindered due to lack of service, faith, and other unmentionables. Time may tell but not for us.

Is religion and faith not possible for some?
by littletree ini ask this question because i'm starting to have the scarey feeling that i was born "faithless".
other than feeling that babies and flowers are beautiful and miraculous, i have been having the darndest time feeling 100% sure that god exists and cares.
things that religious folks say are "blessings" i just see as the product of human effort and choice, or as stuff that probably would have happened anyway.

I lost my job at Microsoft today...thanks to a wonderful economy...
by dolphman infor the last few years, many of my friends have lost their jobs and have not found suitable replacements.
most are on unemployment, and those whose unemployment has run out are simply eeking out some meager existence doing something they don't like, that doesn't pay well, and doesn't help to really reduce the stress they face every day.. well, to be honest, i used to laugh my ass off at them.
ha ha ha i would say.

I'm sorry you lost your job. Hope you will find something soon that interests you. Do you think the president has control of the economy or can create jobs. I hope you won't rely on the government to create a job or conditions for job growth.

The UN, was the WTS given special knowledge?
by peacefulpete inthe league of nations and the united nations in prophetic speculation
how is it that so many individuals through the centuries have found such a pleasure in playing the role of prophet, despite the fact that their prophecies so seldom come true?
regularly their predictions fail, yet they go on with prophesying.

I can't believe as a young man I swallowed all this as original, unique beliefs only developed by the slave class. I wish the internet was available back then. The whole Bethel institution is nothing but an example of hive mentality or coalescence as sci-fi author Steven Baxter would describe it. Franz/Knorr copied all this from the body of work by real scholars and passed it off as their own divine inspiration. Shame on them.

Beyond the compass where the Lords assemble. Beyond the world of mortal man. Within this sanctuary the Spectre begins to tremble. They lay his spear upon the plan. Another sword upon the throne. But now the jester laughs alone. Beneath this cloak of treason, lies a thousand faces. The truth must stand to reason, for those whose heart it chases. Let no one yield we're on the field. Where deeds eclipse the sun. Where the brave are told, on a thread of gold, the tapestry is spun. As they speak of dreams thier armor gleams, there's calm before the storm. But all can see their destiny, the Bishop takes the pawn.
