Jobs/VacanciesRe: Pls HELP, IFBI Invite. by Luxzy(m): 5:56pm On Sep 04, 2013
yeah. its legitimate. and its not a job interview. its a career seminar. just called them and they confirmed it. IFBI actually stands for institute of finance, bank and insurance. google IFBI and confirm for yourself. go to the contact us page and call the number. and the address also matches that of the text message.

cheers

Christianity EtcRe: The Bible Is Not The Inerrant Word Of God: It Is Just A Copy Of Mythology by Luxzy(m): 12:19am On Aug 31, 2011
Just once wouldn't you love for someone to simply show you the evidence for God's existence? No arm-twisting. No statements of, "You just have to believe."

But first consider this. If a person opposes even the possibility of there being a God, then any evidence can be rationalized or explained away. It is like if someone refuses to believe that people have walked on the moon, then no amount of information is going to change their thinking. Photographs of astronauts walking on the moon, interviews with the astronauts, moon rocks, all the evidence would be worthless, because the person has already concluded that people cannot go to the moon.

In 2004, a British philosophy professor, Antony Flew, who has been a leading champion of atheism for more than a half-century concluded that there is a God. At age 81, after decades of insisting that belief is a mistake, concluded that some sort of intelligence or first cause must have created the universe. A super-intelligence is the only good explanation for the origin of life and the complexity of nature.

A typical debate between theists and atheists go something like this:
The atheist side typically presents the position that belief in God is immature, and that God is a provable or disprovable hypothesis for why things are the way they are, which, they argue, can be easily disproved:

[1] Evolution eliminates the need for a creator,
[2] Double blind tests prove that prayer doesn't work,

[3] Psychology has demonstrated that human beings often mistake random pattern for meaningful purpose,

[4] Observation shows that we are an insignificant spot in the midst of a vast chaotic universe,

[5] and the death of a single innocent child makes the belief in a benevolent, omnipotent, omniscient God absurd, or even offensive.


The theist side then responds with arguments to rebut these points:

[1a] The universe is too fine-tuned to be an accident,
[2a] Without a loving God there are no objective standards or source of values,

[3a] The very fact that we can comprehend the workings of physicality with our minds demonstrates the existence of a purposeful creator.

[4a] Insignificant as our portion of the universe, modern science show Earth to be the only provable place with life;

[5a] In all suffering and heartache their is human growth and value, and God's Wisdom is far superior to human greed and selfish desires for comfort and ease;

Atheists then counter that there is absolutely no objective, quantifiable proof that God exists, that religion is ignorant of, uninterested in or dismissive of modern science, and that to believe in something without proof is inherently dangerous, especially when one thinks that he is acting on divine authority. The theist responds, and so on.


The debate about the existence of God hits a brick wall because there is an essential misunderstanding about the nature of God: None of the proofs that atheists are looking for, or any counter argument from the theists, would be adequate proof.

In the Peubla debate, Michael Shermer said that he'd find convincing proof, "if you could have God grow new limbs on amputees from the Iraq war, by Christian soldiers, praying for them to be healed. This has not happened even once. Apparently God can not do even what amphibians can do."

But even if this did happen, it would not prove to the atheists the existence of God, but they would instead say this proves that there is some kind of regenerative force or energy that responds to the right kind of conscious thought.

The truth is that nothing, absolutely nothing can prove the existence of God. Its either you believe or you don't. However, if all wise, all knowing scientist did not write the bible and God's existence is false, how did we come by religion, bible and the 'tales'? Who wrote the bible? What force holds the universe? What happens when we die? and finally, if you claim that there is no God, how do you explain your existence? Evolution? I sure know I didn't evolve from a freaking monkey or some primitive mammal,
