Christianity Etc › Re: What If There Really Is No God? by davien(m): 11:12pm On Jul 20, 2015
achinaboy:
There is God, but at last, if there is no God,we have nothing to loose, believing in him made a world a better place, the only people that will surelly regret it are those idiotic extremist who thought that they are fighting for God
davien:
What i lose by believing "god?"
IF YOU REFER TO YOUR "god" THEN;

1.Give 10% my income

2.Give in to authority...through "faith men" and be easily conned...

3.Demote women...as "inferior beings"

4.When you base reality on the imaginary....you become more manipulative and have to believe anything absurd to back up the belief i.e Creationism...

5.Live by racist standards i.e Demoting people on sexual preference,ethnicity etc...

6.Have to teach children to not be inquisitive and lie to them...

7.Have to force a view against abortion rights and gay rights based on baseless toilet paper...

8.Have to threaten people with "hell" and "faith" because the myth does not go by its own merits and have to be believed by "faith" ....

9.Have to teach children imaginary do's and don'ts about masturbati0n....and other subjects best left to personal wishes...

10.Stand to lose sanity by believing two members of a species can re-populate that species without losing vigour and without genetic defects and believe in a world wide flood...

LOTS AND LOTS AND LOTS OF REASONS...

Culture › Re: Town Where Death Awaits Albinos by davien(m):
eyeview:
This tribe is synonymous with traditional evil worships, ritual,occultism,idol worships,fetish practices,demonic strongholds, diabolic beliefs and actions,ritual dens,etc.
Am not a bit surprised. When will they start fearing God.
Imagine innocently travelling thru this town as an albino,they will pursue you till they kill you to appease a certain 'river demon'.
It's the same as gays being a taboo to you and you and your lot also killing them for no justified reason,so when will you be an empathic human being? undecided

johnydon22:
[b]You are not serious right? So you are meaning to tell us you have no independent morals except what your religion gives you?

Tell me, do you need to consult the bible, quran or any other religious book before you know murder is wrong?

If you don't then how come you can't differentiate between sociatal morality and religious morality.
Secular states and country have no business with religious morals when enacting laws, thats why you see legalization of homosexuality even when your religion is against it, Nobody cares what religion thinks.

Morality is not Islamic neither is it christian or hindu. Morality is human, it belongs to no ism. and it is not dependent on any creed, book or supernatural for foundation because morality itself is a foundation.

Secular definition of Morality is: Actions that decreases human suffering and/or betters societal well being, freedom, equality and justice. . .

Am sure judging from this you can simply discern how moral actions are determined and not what religion says.

You've become a pro in discussing morality grin

1 Peter 5:6

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

James 4:10

10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.

What must you do before the action takes place "Humble yourself "

Psalm 18:25

25 With the merciful thou wilt shew thyself merciful; with an upright man thou wilt shew thyself upright;
I appreciate that you've spent time and mb writing or copying/pasting that,but you and i know i don't regard that as anything valuable...

Hmmm ... davien grin grin . I see you

Hebrews 11:1

11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the b1. evidence of things not seen.

faith

a complete b2. trust or confidence in someone or something

you are smart enough to relate b1 and b2
You can hope all day and put your trust in harry potter(the book),it won't make a broomstick into a wand...same goes for believing that which has no support...it is sheer gullibilty


"gullibility - tendency to believe too readily and therefore to be easily deceived

@ davien ... just live a good life and believe in God . God is smart enough to know if you are qualified or not
I am living a good life(to the best of my knowledge),why do i need a belief for that life to be justified?

Ephesians 2:8
which is it,faith...gift from god or the grace of god or all three?

Oh davien ... understand who Christians call God and why we hold fast to the belief in Him . You just gave a wrong perception @ bold . *sigh* read my little explanation in my response to thehomer 's question "did God create humans with hands" . It should help
Christians themselves do not understand what they call god,if they did there wouldn't be more than 10,000 denominations of them who disagree on every point..

Here's a question....Are we saved by grace or do we attain it by faith?

Lolz... I hope you've seen why I called you blind ... I wanted the whole thing to boil down to "I dont know" grin grin cool
And in truth i don't know what happened before that or if there's a discern-able "before" to begin with...that's an answer based on honest evaluations,you on the other hand assert a living breathing magical male being(fully equiped with an unusable p.enis) stays there and had always been there because a 2000 year old book patched from numerous unidentified authors from different time periods and voted on for what ought to be compiled into says so... a.k.a gullibilty

This guy doesn't even get what I'm trying to do him . You are blind walahi

But seriously you cant compare in any way or form your academic credentials to mine ... so lets focus on the argument
What argument?....all you've done is keep asking how everything came naturally as though there was a point in time when absolutely nothing existed...

Ok am sorry :

Show me how through evolution (development through simple forms) :
Show me how through relativity you digest food.. undecided

It became: "only a template that can be used for data compression ...and this is in large part only possible due to the data(the data the fellow i was responding to) being in a compressible form like binary..."
because it comprises of bases that can be attributed to 1's and 0's(binary)

and how it

"can be converted into "data" by plotting a sequence that is repetitive and predictable "

Have I explained myself ? cool grin
data in this sense is a sequence that is repetitive and predictable...you're basically asking a "how" on another "how".... i.e how is laughing laughing?

It's not funny that you have trouble understanding simple statements,it tells of your education..

Typical davien , This does not show how it arose naturally . cool It just described one of its characteristics . Am still waiting to be wowed !
wow....the sheer ignorance is apalling...smh sad ( read carefully below )

lol ... please davien show me how that ability to store that size of data "arose naturally "
davien:
numbnuts,DNA doesn't store 700 Terabytes...it's only a template that can be used for data compression ...and this is in large part only possible due to the data(the data the fellow i was responding to) being in a compressible form like binary...

And in truth any form of matter can be converted into "data" by plotting a sequence that is repetitive and predictable ,how do you think computers work?....that doesn't make rocks and mud "designed" grin
Asking a non-question around a strawman and then laughing has been the height of your capabilities...

Unfortunately devin, I won't be able to keep on with this banter, no point going back and forth with no confluence man.
Again,you're following the very trend that you wish to separate from i.e dogmatic religious thinking...

Bro I insist on it for myself cause it has really helped me to preach more love than hate.
You don't need a supernatural belief for that..

Well can anyone use it to believe anything? Yes so far the person deem it fit, moreso,if the person is moral enthusiast then he may find it worthy.
Then it's worthless and harmful...that which can be used to believe anything is a delusion,and delusions tend to shift ones frame of reality...and a frame of reality that is not correct leads to wrong and harmful decisions..

I'm not here to convince someone to fall inline with it,this is just my own belief and soley responsible for my actions.
Only you don't liive in a bubble,you live in a society where you actions have effects on others and vice versa...having beliefs that steer your mind from reality influences those actions..

Its no guilt card bro, you mention my beliefs are not well grounded? They are not well grounded cause you never open a clear mind to it, look farther than your nose with your eye there lies your mouth.
An open mind does not mean swallowing a claim,it means giving someone a chance to prove his case....i've given you a chance and all you keep coming up with are just arguments from ignorance.. i.e "don't know x therefore i'll believe it's y"..

Yeah,I belief there is a creator cause I've seen things beyond explanation of man, things human hasn't go beyond, things beyond human knowledge,this you know but you won't agree and I'm not here to make you agree either cause I respect your beliefs so should do mine.
Unexplained things do not equate to there being a supernatural entity at play....many known things today where once explained by people like you as handiwork of one god or the other...from a rain god,to a sun god,to an earthquake god,etc...you are just following the trend of those people...following blindly that which you want to believe because there is no explanation for it...
