The problems Bible believers have with Atheists is the burden of proof is on the Believer and we just do not have enough proof.

by booker-t in

i recently posted a post telling this board my athesit coworker stumped me with questions about the validity of the ark story and i just cannot stop talking to her.

i love hearing her side and point of view which in the past i would have dismissed as "satanic" thinking.

she has some very good questions and i am having a hard time answering them.

I believe I'm an athiest;;...I have studied the ancient and revered atheistic texts, my faith in the non inspired god of non existence has strengthened my belief, so much so I am compelled to evangelise to others.

I look forward to meeting and worshipping my loving god of non existence with my fellow brothers.

We hope to publish the good news of the kingdom of the non existant god very soon and distribute world wide.

We want everyone on earth to share the joy of this non existant promise of the non existant reward for being faithful non believers.

See you all in church.

May our nongod bless us all Amen.

i never believed in evolution as i thought it didn't make sense and that what was proposed was simply impossible.

how could an environment alter an organism's dna?

as we can see however, bacteria cannot become resistance to antibiotics.

Evolution is a fact :...get over it and live your life.

Are they really asking a worldly organisation(patent office) permission to protect from use by anyone else, a logo which part of contains the most sacred name of their god?

Which scripture is this reasoning based on?

These people are mixed up , deluded , conning charlatans!!!!

Ad Gefrin - The Ancient Capital of Northumbria

by cofty in

last sunday my wife and i went walking in the cheviot hills in the beautiful northumberland national park not far from our home.

we have walked a lot of the cheviots in recent months and intend to get around a lot more over the summer.. this week we decided to go up a few of the smaller hills in the north of the park so we headed for a peak known as yeavering bell.

it was used as a hill fort since the iron age.

A trip to the border country /cheviots could be on the cards.

Atheism is a Belief System

by seekchristonly in

is atheism a belief system.

after all the atheist believes there is no god .so if that's the case then an atheist if a person of faith.

they have faith in the fact there is no god.

galaxie

Who would accept deception or perpetuation of false claims more than the god brigade?

I dont believe in unicorns therefore no delusion.

I do believe in unicorns without proof of their existence gross delusion!!!

Resurrection talk at convention

by innerpeace in

i didn't go to the convention but have family who did, all are going on about the resurrection talk, how there wasn't a dry eye in the arena.

and apparently a video was shown too on it.

we lost a family member some years back and they are on fb talking about the resurrection and new world coming soon.

Will all their clothing be resurrected? The thought of all these naked people running about trying to find a pair of pants is toooooooo much!!!!!???!

Active JW's, can you defend "THE TRUTH?"

by DATA-DOG in

as of yet, no member of the jehovah's witness faith can defend their unique beliefs.

when the dust settles, it all comes down to blind faith in men's ever-changing ideas.

this "unique belief" was not a "true teaching of the bible.

galaxie

Can anyone say , which version of the compilation of manuscripts, texts, writings known as the bible is the unmolested one?

Human inconsistency, reasoning to uphold certain beliefs, control of the ignorant minions, mistakes in copying, mistranslation must be taken into account.

Who could really trust such a book to influence their life decisions.

Can the supposed ' truth ' really be defended?

I Need Help Getting My Head Straight.......

by TTATTelder in

one of the things i have been wresting with mentally is unraveling the "us vs. them" mentality that has been driven into my skull in the organization.. i am starting this thread seeking advice on how others have come to grip with this.. this is what i struggle with:.

i like the feeling/thought of being among people that live, or try to live, or at least know they ought to live by higher standards of conduct (maybe it is just what i'm used to...).

when you walk out of a convention of people dressed up, clean-cut, shaven, non-smoking, less-profanity-speaking, fairly orderly etc and see what greets you in the streets outside, it is a big contrast.. i am also still trying to understand how a religion that has conned people (so is morally wrong) could also be so well organized and have a lot of truly decent folks among their ranks.

I just spent a lovely w/end with my family only one of whom was jw (my sister)all friendly loving people who dress nicely only one smoker (always trying to quit!!)

They cannot comprehend the others of my family who will not socialise with their kith and kin but choose to shun and be judgemental of our lives.

The most important aspect of any person is surely not outer appearance but the love and goodness within.
