tifa-sama, when I look at a platypus I prefer to say that God does have a sense of humor. And quit trying to sound smart because you don't sound intelligent just by using fancy words.

Seen your member

so I was talking to someone, and a few parts stood out as particularly good.
Faithful: what do you beleive in? Faithful: nothing? Alain: I believe in many things Faithful: ??? Alain: and I don't believe in the storybook called the bible Faithful: ok so you believe then that gases all of a sudden came together and poof there is earth ! or do you beleive that some organism transformed into a human? Faithful: how can you stand on someones guess? Faithful: the bible makes sense Alain: the bible makes no sense Faithful: have you ever read it? Alain: what do you think, that some gasses came together and all of the sudden, poof, god came to exist? Alain: yes I've read it Faithful: God is omniopresent , we can't understand it Faithful: you obviously read the words but not really understood them Alain: the universe is omnipresent, we can't understand it Alain: there's a difference between understanding words and stupidly accepting them as truth Faithful: I have done my research and the bible is the only thing that makes sense Alain: No you haven't. If your parents had raised you as Moslem you would have believed that were the truth Faithful: no i choose what i beleive , infact i haven't beleived in this my whole life. I am the type of person who can't live my life wondering why the heck am i on this earth, how did it get here, is there a purpose for my existance, how did this come about. Evoulution and the big bang theory are dumb. THe bible makes sense . Faithful: How can you think there is no God when you look at earth and the human body. We are made with such detail and design. We are soo perfect. How do you suppose that came about? I would be a fool to live my life not worrying about it or just living life not knowing. Obviously there was a master mind behind it and you would be dumb to think otherwise. Faithful: i find it hard to relate to people who dont believe there is a God. How can they not? Faithful: Every breath you take is a gift from him yet you take it for granted... Alain: Anyways, I don't believe in all the fancy analogies and beautiful depictions that make people want to believe in god just because they think they will get a reward from it Alain: Basically, believing in god is selfish Alain: That’s all I have to say on the matter sure enough though, I had to say more on the matter… Alain: People were always telling me about God, his greatness, and all the teachings of the bible, and I believed in him as long as I believed in Santa Clause, because that's all God is, another santa clause, there to make you behave, except there are no presents in the basement to ever show you the truth, you need to reason it out yourself. Faithful: hes not like santa though.... hes real Alain: I just stopped taking everyone's teachings for blind truth and did a little truth-seeking myself, and it's all just a story. I could write a book called "The Teachings" and have it full of my own story of how the universe came about, completely mystical and fake, and full of things about how "the light of the gods fused and there was earth" and other ambiguous crap, and if it had been around the same time as the bible, and had been taken so seriously, and taught people that if you were good, and believed, that you wouldn't just die pointlessly like what the truth was, but would instead live again in some ambiguous happier life, then it could be like the Bible. Faithful: so you think then after we die we are nothing?? just nothing? Alain: yep Faithful: i guess you will figure that out when your dead Faithful: does that not at all freak you out thinking that way... Faithful: i would want to commit suicide if i thought like that Alain: I won't figure anything out when I'm dead Alain: Because there will be nothing Faithful: whats the point in life if your just going to die and become nothing Alain: and why would you want to commit suicide? Alain: all the more reason to live for the present Faithful: thats dumb Alain: This is your only time existing, so take it for what you have Faithful: actually you will live forever and when you figure that out it will be too late Alain: Don’t waste your life in the hope that there's something better after it Alain: it just means you'll die a little less scared Faithful: dont waste your life thinking theres nothing to it and then later on finding out you missed out on the best relationship you could ever have with the God that made you Alain: Having a relationship with God is like having Schizophrenia Best line ^^ Faithful: to me your a flat character, there is no depth to you, you would rather live your life believing in nothing and thinking you have no purose and you just ended up here just cause..... Alain: Why am I a flat character, because I make my own purpose in life instead of believing an ambiguous book? Faithful: look at yourself you have five fingers one each hand to pick stuff up with , feet to be able to balance on the ground, eyes to see, ears to hear, a mind to think. YOur body is soo complex and works soo perfectly... everything is put together right.. Faithful: your not deep becuase you can't figure out why your here Alain: Wonders of evolution Alain: I know why I'm here Alain: and it's not to believe what some ruddy book says Faithful: thats sick, you actually think that nothing made you soo perfect Alain: We aren't perfect at all Alain: You just selfishly think you're a perfect being Faithful: you would rather believe in a humans weird thouights then an actual writte book on how you got here Faithful: its a theory not a fact Faithful: in fact it shouldn't be a theory its a guess Alain: What does it matter that it's a book? Alain: Someone could have pissed it in the snow and it would have the same validity ^^ Another good line It always comes down to this, doesn't it. You know they are finished arguing when they say: Alain: Anyway, I'm not arguing that evolution is right; I'm arguing that god is wrong Faithful: yea but hes not wrong and one day when your burning in hell you will realize that Alain: oh noes Faithful: i guess we can agree to disagree Alain: it always seems to come down to that The end |

Disscussions like that are always pointless, and I dont like people who try to impose their beliefs on others.

This has turned into another "God exists, counter: no he doesnt" thread which will never have a conclusion.
Locked. |
