And i think it's a pity when people can't accept things that are a bit out there, but still has heaps of facts and proof anyway. Same as your science can prove certain things - just so it cannot disprove other things .

I will leave it at this now - before we start a war

Thank goodness we live in a society where we can air our views and continue to drive Landrovers

I agree and unfortunately perhaps some would have achieved even more goodness if they had not joined a religion.

This is going to be interesting!

At least I believe it will.

You called?

I'm an atheist, but it's not by choice.


























It's the way God made me.

Religion causes war I'd believe there is but there are many variables Never seem to find time to worry about it to much

All after being prayed for, and a lot of it instantly, but if you're not there you won't see it and thus not believe. Pity. God is not into grandstanding and gives humans the free will to make choices.

As far as a helping hand goes wannalandy - you won't see it even if it hits you in the face - for you are a self-made man. Good philosophy to take all the credit for your success and blame all the tragedy in your life on God? Smacks of double standards in my opinion

Hmmmmmmm , double standards ....... Funny how when something good happens it's the work of "God" ....... And something bad happens it's the work of the devil ?????
