<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Justice @ Jul 4 2006, 03:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>It seemed as though you implied it. I mean, a summary of your first post would be, "How can you not believe in God? The Big Bang is retarded!" The logical train of thought there seems to be that if you don't believe in God, you must believe in the Big Bang. That's why I brought it up. It has nothing to do with misreading, either.I guess you would have to. The part that bothers me is that people say that things can be attributed to God, whether it be complexity of the world, our bodies, the distance from the sun, or whatever. But how is someone supposed to take them seriously when they attribute EVERYTHING to God (even the things that a complete douchebag would do, like wipe out New Orleans)? Maybe it's just me that finds it silly, I don't know.And you wonder why people don't believe you when you claim to be a genius.

</div>Who said people don't believe I'm a genius? Maybe some people try to think around it, but most people who know me IRL know I'm a genius. Sorry if I don't seem like a genius when I talk about basketball. You don't sound like a genius talking about the Big bang either. I'm more wise and intelligent than a genius anyways. What do you know about the real world you book-worm? No one is smart when they're on God's side, because there is limited proof. It's all faith.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Lakaboy42 @ Jul 4 2006, 07:04 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Why doesn't god just use his power to find out if everyone is good or not?

JustBlaze, if you believe in god ssoo much then why are you always cussing at people?
 
Im aethiest, I just don't believe in God, who or what created it ?I try not to think about it too much as it can get really weird.

And you assume that you'll "get into heaven" right. I'm sure your short temper and "Shut up fu*kface" type of response to every opinion that differs from yours won't stop that.BTW, you completely ignored my question. Do you have an answer to it?

There are many older people on forums. This is one of the few sites were nearly all the members are teens. Most of the forums i've been on have older people than Justice.
 
That doesn't make them different from him...
 
What, older people aren't allowed to use the internet and talk about sports...yeah...Most successful forums with the best sports talk are with adults. You could say the same thing about us kids that we should be out playing sports or doing stuff with friends instead of spending all the time on the internet. It doesen't make a difference what age you are.I'm sure Justice is an ugly loser without a job and the best part of his day is when he can get on BBW for half an hour and make 12 posts.
 
No, but he shouldn't call me out for being 15. If he can call me out for being young, I can call him out for being older. And you're probably right about his day :happy0144: (I know you said that sarcastically)
 
Yes you are right. I hate when people do that too since I'm a kid.

I believe god is just a non-existant image used by humans to explain things. I don't believe in god, i believe in evolution.I'll post more of my beliefs and reasons later, it's too late right now, and it's been a while since i've talked about this. I'm a very controversial guy jsyk,\ most of the time i would just keep my mouth shut.

I guess the Universe was created in 7 days by a big being for nothing, :no3: I doubt it

It's harder, in my opinion, to believe in God than it is not to. For that reason alone I think a lot of people are drawn away from him and religion. Most people are under the impression that religion is a lot of work. Is it sad? You bet. It is true? You bet.Do I believe in God? I don't know. I'm not a religious person at all. I don't go to chuch and I don't read the bible. I don't pray at night and I don't know all the special holidays.I have no clue how the earth was created and neither do any of us. I think it would be best if we all stopped acting like we knew what happened and instead started to open our eyes so maybe we can paint a picture of what we THINK happened. None of us are right or wrong so arguing about something so vast is stupid.

I think all of you guys really need to just cool it. You guys are taking a joke and a post way too seriously. It's gotten to the point where it has hijacked the thread and the topic is no longer being discussed. This really isn't a productive thread anymore because of it. I'm not a moderator and I'm not your daddy, but I'm asking you to stop because it is childish and unappealing.
 
I have no idea how the universe was created. The explosion makes more sense to me than some big guy in a white robe who created the universe by working his magic.

All the puberty jokes and bickering ends now or this topic is locked.
 
Well im jerwish and i very much beileve in it. People are idiots. Read the torah or aka for you knows as the bible. people are starting to find things that relate to it. Like people say they found noahs arc or hyrogliphics about these things. I mean do you guys really think that this was from no god? you think that all our body parts and the world and out lives were just put together randomly? there had to be something behind it and tahts god. And with jesus no offense but come on the guy was a jew himself you guys cant beileve that hes gods son or god himself
