![]() [b]"Doesnt the Big Band Theory Disprove the Genesis account of Creation?
Try to think of any explosion that has produced order. Does a terrorist bomb create harmony? Bo, they cause chaos. How could a big bang produce apple trees, a rose, sunsets, the nose, and mouth? There is obviously creation involved. Evolutionists seem to me like theyre purposefully ignoring all the evidence that points towards it, like a detective who see's all the evidence for a murder yet still calls it a suicide. |

A play on words does not get anyone anywhere. Also i am pretty sure the big bang didn't produce order, it would have produced mass chaos and disorder. Last edited by Izzy; 10-9-2008 at 01:25 PM.. |

If you really want to criticize religion on the basis of money, the true cash cow for the church is the huge volume of land that christian denomonations own in Europe. If they sold all of that at market rates, they'd be making more like Trillions of dollars on it. Collections at mass are a drop in that bucket. Quote:
2) God gave us free will to do with as we wanted, God presumably -doesn't- want us to kill each other, but He agreed to not interfere with our bad decisions. 3) Actually, it's primarily the Judeo-Christian religions that tend to state that only followers of their denomination will be saved. Eastern religions are generally more along the lines of "We feel this is a -better- path towards enlightenment, but there are many paths" Quote:

Pretty sure that disease is still the leading killer of people by far. As for the money, my family went to church for a number of years, and while collections happened, nobody ever once even insinuated in anything ever that donation was mandatory, that you were sinning by not giving money, that there would be any negative consequences whatsoever to not giving, or that you were going to get anything out of giving besides the feeling that you'd done good by giving money to a group that funds many charitable organizations. I wouldn't call that 'ripping off' anybody. Quote:

Religion claims that it answers more questions than evolution does, which is true, but evolution has also never claimed to answer things it couldn't back up if pressed, which religions do all the time. Quote:

I have no problem with the idea that there are alternate and multiple universes, where for all we know, the fundamental rules aren't the same as they are here. Our universe functions pretty clearly on cause->effect, thus it makes sense to me that the effect "the creation of the universe" had a cause, but it is also a fallacy to suppose that in order to create something, you have to be bound by the same rules/characteristics as it, otherwise, we coudln't really make things that can fly, or that are transparent.

![]() People, understand that the big bang wasn't a huge explosion that caused the universe. It's an expansion of mass from a singularity.

![]() I'm glad I was raised as a Christian and that I have knowledge of Christianity and the bible, and I guess it couldn't really hurt to revisit church, but I gave up on God and a lot of things. People have said that all I have to do is accept him for him to save me. I'm not going to get on my knees every Sunday to contemplate on my one true holy God. I'm going to do homework because every other day I've got school or a marching band competition. I'll accept God even though I don't feel or know him, but I just can't enjoy being with people who are ignorant to my beliefs yet expect me to believe in something they believe in.
EDIT: I realize that religion is the same as it was 400 years ago. Last edited by danny53x; 10-9-2008 at 02:01 PM.. |

![]() I went to church when was younger, it was BOOOOOOORRRIIIIINNNNNGGGGG. I would sit there counting in my head, and trying to read the bible. (When was in 1st grade it was pretty dificult) Honestly I always thought they were fiction bedtime stories for parents to read to there kids.
I was FORCED to sing the the church courus by my parents. I hated it, it was a waist of my weekend. When I got older, and realized people actually BELIEVE this stuff, I totally became anti-religion. People should stop beliving this crap. And luckily I think people have become less religious, though still believe in god and certain things. |
