god must be atheist

I've always had trouble with that. If it "seems", then it's an empirical observation. Have you/we/anyone seen all possible worlds? This is an axiom in...

I am no judge to know what you understand and what you don't. I am just going by your replies.

You said -- please check the above quote and the originals -- that you did not understand the genocide part. That's what you stated you did not unders...

That, Tom, in and by itself, makes it worth it to pursue the idea. I bid (call my own and thereby take possession) of Alpha Centauri, the Milky Way an...

I think it is high time that we take care of the galaxy. We take care of our heritance, Mother, the Earth. We are the custodians of this rock. And we ...

I was part of this in Hungary, between roughly 1960 and 1972, when I was 6 to 18 years of age. There were no public executions of priests, and there w...

You are employing the fallacy of "equivocation". Faith in government, democratic process, money, is a trust. They obviously exist, and there is no one...

My favourite call on Christianity was uttered by a God. The Dalai Lama said, "Christianity is a beautiful religion. Too bad nobody practices it." Ther...

I think Religiosity and believing in a deity would be praiseworthy if it was simple presence of belief. It would amount to not needing to await eviden...

Faith is a belief. Is atheism a belief? Is there belief without faith? (Faith connotes belief in god(s); atheism connotes (wrongly) lack of belief.)

SEXISM ON THE FORUMS!!! The bearer of (i.e. the decoration around) a C can be just as capable as the CS. Mind you, the CS could be either of the sexes...

No atheist denies the possibility of a god's existence. They just state they don't believe in it. No religious man or woman denies the possibility of ...

Without the revolution, guns and slogans, we live in a Marxist society if you hold the truth that workers unite and control. Who controls societies' d...

The advocation of global warming by you was indeed not in this thread. So if you think you are not an advocate of reversing global warming then please...

I don't like the "suspended" expression to be used for temporary banning. In Hungary during communist times they suspended people by various small bod...

This is rather curious. I am not making a judgment here, and I am not taking sides. I am merely noticing that throughout this thread you 1. Advocate t...

Absolutely. Police in uniforms may have not been involved, but tribal discipline was enforced. Same thing. The libertarian concept ignores two facts: ...

These members don't get banned.

I wouldn't mind reinstatement after a banning, except of course for Bartricks whom I hated from the bottom of my heart. Then again, why would we want ...

But at least he gets to fuck his mother. "Calls me a motherfucker". Well, sex is sex. Don't sneeze at it. If you refuse it, you'll regret it later.

Well... the author creates the works. How can you seperate "author who never finishes his works" from the author? It is incredibly about the author. N...

You're right. I felt funny using that word. Judment carries too much notion of "condemnation". Whereas I meant it as a form of opinionating.

"In most cases..." yes, but there are the exceptions, if the cases you talk about are "most", and not "all". I don't know... you seem to attribute a l...
