Atheist or Theist? Choose!
    #7590651 - 11/03/07 10:53 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

Some questions are pretty simple: Do you believe in a God/Divine Power (Theism) or do you believe there is none? (Atheism) ?

Narrow your opinion down to either of the two for the vote, and then afterwards lets debate it in all its complexities.

.
Do you believe in a Divine Power?
You may choose only one


Votes accepted from (11/03/07 10:52 AM) to (No end specified)

I believe in god, it takes less faith for me to believe a divine entity created the universe than an accident. Do I care what limitations any relgion tries place on me? FUCK NO

I am agnostic. But really...I am God.

I don't really think when my heart stops it's all over, but other than that I don't really understand this type of question, it's too vast.

I don't have time to worry about such matters, they are much larger than I.

id say the question is pretty easy to comprehend since one is either an atheist or not

agnostics are not the same but very similar as both are nonreligious

So, I believe I admitted it then. I believe there's more to the story than man knows so I believe in something more. I'm one of those believers, I guess.

I don't believe in stuff I don't have evidence for. Asking anyone to do that is a fools errand.

is it really logical that the universe exists at all? Is always existing logical or is something from nothing logical?

Nothing about the world (in my observation) suggests the presence of an absolute power comprehensible to man.

No benevolence, no malevolence, just cause and effect on a level almost entirely outside of understanding, to the point where as far as we're concerned, it's chaos.


Edit: and forget agnositicism. If God exists, He is unknowable and therefore irrelevant.

The big bang theory is retarded. Why don't all the planets spin in the the same direction? If a few kids hang on to a merry go round and it spins at really high speeds and they all fly off, they will all spin in the same direction.

If we allow the possibility the universe is infinite why can't we allow the possibility it's eternal as well? Scientists estimate the age of the universe to be between 10 - 20 billions of years old but space could also be in constant expansion meaning WHERE we measure the age of the earth could be a different age than its central location. If the universe is infinite than space is conceivably god/divine presence.

Either way I just can't see god being an intelligent one. Ask yourself if you were god would you make things the way they are?

If two objects are spinning in the same direction and they hit each other the objects will slow down. If this keeps happenning the object will eventually be hit so many times that it stops spinning and reverses direction.

Try it on the breakfast table with oranges.
