Boris, he's not going to get it. It's a lost cause. I'm giving up.

Bit scary actually, these are the types of people they are running countries with their fingers on buttons.....

I'm done with the game. Did you even read my post in the other thread?

I doubt it.

Actually I am still waiting for you to answer my questions.

They aren't going to be answered.

So please get over that.

You are not on Fear Factor so what do you fear?

JIA.

I am not answering the questions anymore.

I have nothing to fear.

My personal life is my own, and I will share it when I wish. I choose not to share it in this particular way.

Back. Off.

JIA = teh stalkersz

I wasn't getting personal. You have made comments about me that relate directly to what I am asking. But since you will not cooperate I cannot continue with the this.

Thanks, mate. 🙂

Boris : What kind of Christian do you think you're okay with?

Em... how to describe this... placid Christians.

Ones who aren't afraid to live their lives.

Ones who aren't ruled by a book with an iron fist.

Ones who are open to the possibility that they're wrong.

Ones who are losing their faith.

I mean one of my best friends is a Christian and we get on great.. so long as he doesn't talk about it.

That just made me laugh...

I'd think we'd get along fairly well, Boris. Presbyterian Universalist. *shakes hand*

Lovely.

Now back to Penn and Teller... 🙂

Why do you guys give this sock attention? He doesn't really believe (all) this shit, he's trying to annoy atheists. Either he's a christian who likes to talk shit, or he's not a christian, but rather, someone who likes to make fun of them.

the bible? bullshit indeed.....religion is bullshit...its a base that people created long ago to elevate their power from

is the pope a poor, moneyless, live off the land kind of guy? no....
people are too corrupt, i reckon if there ever was a God or religion then Satan has destroyed it completly and is the new ruler of this world.

but no, religion is mind washing stuff to control people only.

If you get down to the core, Christians live in a "fear", a fear that if they ever even once looked out side their box, they be damned.

LMAO, i know, there was once a true relegion, people corrupted it, they truned satan and satan's teaching into god and god's teaching. and promoted god to the position of satan and his teachings to the position of satan's teachings.

its a shame the human race cannot throw off the shackles of religion once and for all, we could probably be a far greater peoples, so many wars in history are due to damnable religion, it ruins people

Holy crap. This thread is the gobbles!

Also, I'm totally going to try to ask someone "Do you like sports?" then parlay that into an against-the-person's-will conversation on religion. Hilarious stuff....that's like army recruiter-level BS right there. I never thought I'd be so amused by a tense interaction between JIA and someone else, but I was.

Anyway, I accidentally voted for "fact". My bad.

Did the Bible evolve over billions of years? Why or why not. Why do some people believe that this is not possible. I do not believe that the Bible evolved in any way, I am just making a point. Why do you believe that the Bible could not evolve? Isn't the Bible matter just like everything else? But you believe that simple, inorganic matter evolved into complex, inorganic matter which ultimately evolved into complicated life right? Well, why couldn't the Bible be a product of inorganic matter evolving into a more complex state? We have fossils (i.e. manuscripts). Maybe the Bible is still evolving from inorganic matter. Maybe one day it will evolve into a person. How do you know that this is or is not possible?
