    These are just two examples.  We're not saying Christ says to kill because he doesn't, but people kill IN THE NAME of their own religion.

    Yes, I can agree with what you're saying. But a whole lot of people also kill who don't claim any affiliation with any religious group.

    So what is your point?

    Look, the bottom line is that all people who ever lived, with the exception of our Lord Savior Jesus Christ, and people who are currently living right now are sinners. Some sinners are murderers, some are thieves, some are liars....etc.

    Can you agree with me?

    So my point would be it just doesn't matter if there is religion or no religion, there will be some sinners who will be murderers.

    (I'm making my point just in case you are trying to make a point that the world would be better off without any religion)

    You cant use religion as an excuse for peoples irrationality, which is what they are doing, they are buying it....

    If i went and murdered someone because of a sea gul, is it the sea guls fault or is it because my i am messed up?

    Yes, correct, so these people are claiming that God told them to commit atorcities?

    The OT states that God commanded to kill the caanaties, the reason we are told is because the caanaties were one of the most immoral people in the history of humanity. We udnerstand that God is passing his judgement on these people, no different to a natural disaster.

    This was done BEFORE the coming of the messiah - Christ. Since Christ, we follow Christ.

    Furthermore, why havent i or 99.99% of Christians gone around killing because of the OT?

    i believe christ and god are one in the same

    Yes, correct, so these people are claiming that God told them to commit atorcities?

    The OT states that God commanded to kill the caanaties, the reason we are told is because the caanaties were one of the most immoral people in the history of humanity. We udnerstand that God is passing his judgement on these people, no different to a natural disaster.

    This was done BEFORE the coming of the messiah - Christ. Since Christ, we follow Christ.

    Furthermore, why havent i or 99.99% of Christians gone around killing because of the OT?

    Just watched the special on the universe on h2. Truly incredible stuff. I'm optimistic that before I die we will be able to disprove god as the creator of this universe. And although that doesn't rule one out altogether, it would be enough to convince me 100% that god doesn't exist. I am eager with anticipation.

    Their (not there) existence... is no SECRET to those with CLEARANCE.

    SECRET CLEARANCE is a military invention invented by humans to withhold information in an attempt to control, manipulate, or predict the outcome of certain current and/or future events.  

    You have it backwards...

    You'll need TS/SCI in addition to SAP clearance for privy to access.  I don't suppose you have or had to those clearances so you need to

    Well, if people listened to the word of God, AIDS growth would decline significantly, and abortions would decline, resulting in less emotional pain for all. Prevention is better than cure.

    Absolutely,  the thing is though, these people know what they are doing is wrong because the scriptures teach us not to do it. The people that commit these, are looking for excuses or hiding behind religion. It is rubbish, dont buy it.

    But people who arent in a religion also do messed up shit, like kill 30 mill in a hit....

    In this case, it's not science of the gaps Rostos... Kitty said if it is proven that god did not create this universe, it doesn't rule out a supreme creator. The problem is the believers can just keep saying after every discovery, "Well, god came before that too." so it is impossible to ever disprove god. One thing I did take from the special about the universe is what one scientist said about the god theory. He said, "A hypothesis that can not theoretically ever be tested should not be considered a theory at all."

    All in all it was a very interesting show. I am convinced one day we will have many answers to the questions we have now, answered by science of course...

    If a supernatural force did not create the universe, then we will have to throw much of physics and logic out the window of what we KNOW NOW. Thats not to say it wont, but rather, it means we will have to throw it out...

    I have always said, the latest knowledge in cosmology and physics, points to a cause of the universe, outside our realm..

    Luke 16:19-31

    The Rich Man and Lazarus

    There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. 20 At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores 21 and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores. 22 “The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. 23 In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. 24 So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’25 “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. 26 And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’ 27 “He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, 28 for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’ “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’ “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.’”

    And the believers will never change their minds either. What is your point? I just thought it was an interesting take...
