bohm,
you said
I find this re-definition of words to be tiresome, counter-productive and really remind me of humpty-dumpty (It mean what i say it means).
If you are finding this thread, topic and comments tiresome, why are you here?
70wks.....

In my opinoin, science will never fully explain anything, especially the non-existence of God. There are always discoveries to be made at an individual level. I am satisfied with my scientific knowledge and my belief that God exists.
However if he keeps ignoring me when I pray to him, and cannot show me satisfying reasons why my family is suffering and others the world over are suffering, then my relationship with him is going to deteriote rapidly.
cofty,
I have changed my mind. I think there is a need for a creator again. Sorry
In my opinion Jehovah needed to use complex polarising separating techniques, in order for the right balance of enatiomers to form in living things. There is also a need for a creator for me, becuase I want to pray to him, even if he ignores me.
Finkelstein, you said
I do however understand why people (humans) both past and present do or have, its part of are sociological and psychological make up.
The most interesting point thus far on this thread for me. The bible teaches similar in Matt5:3.
snare, you said
i didn't give up god after watchtower, i then examine the bible. I didn't give up god following rejection of the bibiel, i looked at the Quaran ans read it and some hadiths, went to mosque a number of times. I examined buddhism, hinduism and at about this point realised that all these beliefs had common threads. Very human contructs and all required faith, whereas the science I was consuming all day in class didn't require faith, but simply eyes and ears and hands.... The evidence was real, you could see, hear and touch it.
First of all snare, not waffle at all in fact, very interesting and backs up Finkelstein point. Wonderful revelation to me thanks guys whoopeeee!!!!!
My question now is,
If it is part of our make up, why? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cofty, here we go back to your gap filling point. I am going to fill in the gaps HEHEHEHEHE!!!!!!!!
