@ most complicated robot. OK, i have a similar view concerning "God" and religion. I trust more science than any God. This is an enlightened world view. But not all people have such a good access to education like us. In what should the (poor) people believe if they don't know it better?
They ask themselves Who makes the rain, or gives us a good harvest? its GOD/ALLAH or the whatever named guy
there is no excuses in ignorange, as none in bigotism.
rest is still too simple. there is no god versus science, they are in fact complementary and of course related to different fields of concern.
and ceb, your suspicious vision on science and religion its obviously exaggerated, and impossible to sustain. Of course we try to describe the universe, in every possible way, measuring every possible extension of it. This is not directly connected to manipulation though.
what is this naive way of god made it happen? Sort of common knowledge on greek gods and goddesses interventions on human affair. God has nothing to do with any earth events. There is no catastrophe as god punishment, no sodoma nor gomorra, neither the seven plague. Every agnostic should know that, every serious believer knows that already. God is a complete different matter, and a tricky one.
This is child talk.
Really? then why do people think \ say that God has something to do with any earth events? Why do we hear people say "why me god", etc etc?
Why do religous people pray for miracles and stuff if "God has nothing to do with any earth events" ???

Agreed. But i may lead to an interesting discussion...
I think of 'God' as like a fabric or a force, energy. Not 'someone' that listens and talks to you or commands the atoms and minds. It's as old as the universe itself and we really don't know anything about how it started, there is only speculation.
Even math is filled with theories, look at string theory. Nice formulas, but still only theories.
Life and the way the Universe is built is obviously an incredibly performant and fantastic form of technology.
Statistically the probabilty that a so incredibly well-designed architecture could appear by chance from an energetic "white noise" is close to zero.
So the probabilty the universe has been built follwing a plan is close to 1.
But the word "God" means nothing anymore, it has been used to too many purposes.
Reality about The Plan is out of our reach.
Pacman will never get any clue about what the Atari Corporation can be.
people use god to explain tragedy because it makes it easier to cope
my cousin just died and almost everyone is saying that god wanted him and it was his time and that hes in a better place now. while i want to argue with that, i don't have a more comforting explanation even though i believe there is one
We'll get along fine as soon as you realise i'm god

tegenwoordig, god is de gene (nowadays, god = genetically determined)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_gene
all part of the godcomplexx I guess..
in fact there is no order in the universe. its a chaotic system - so the argument by design is a weak one unless you accept an unperfect god which contradicts his omnipotence
B.t.w. didn't god die some time ago (when Nietzsche was still alive)?
Shit ain't raw no more
Fake is how it is
Chorus
Whatcha gon do when God comes
You can front now, but when God comes
You can't get straped for when God comes
Cuz you won't know how to act, when God comes
i'm gonna have to call FAIL on this thread
no shit, ultra-stupid, but the nonsense about worshiping i-f at the beginning is exactly what i was talking about in the detroit luv topic, seems more and more people are either like prussell or subscribe to that mindless groupie shit
i believe in god otherwise it would take the punch out of my favorite vocabulary, like goddammit, aww christ, jeeeeesus, etc
and no larry, its not god that killed them, they got killed cus they dumb and trampled each other (if your talking about the recent incident in india)

oh shark who is this god
before whom every man is made to cower
I feel ashamed and simple things comes harder now
I doubt my words, my legs, my every move
God is in yourself, you only need to find him/her...
Reason can only undermine faith, never justify it. One must choose to believe in God passionately and personally, not as a mere intellectual exercise. An authentic belief acquires its force from within, as a 'leap of faith' without the guidance of reason to reassure us that what we are doing is 'right' or 'true'. Such reassurances would remove the need for faith if God's existence were simply a matter of common sense or rational reflection.
^The words and ideas of soren Kierkegaard (a Danish philosopher). Sort of sums up my point of view
thats what happens when your dad is a jesus freak like kierkegaard's
thats what happens when your dad is a jesus freak like kierkegaard's
Whats that supposed to mean?
God is God because he has got the Right to kill the People who follow him and everybody forgives him.
daen, because of his father he turned his back on philosophy itself

Think that's a slight mis-interpretation?
"without the guidance of reason to reassure us"
whatevs, im flex
not as a mere intellectual exercise
instead it is, remember modal logic from your school days?
eventuality, possibility, necessity, if translated correctly...
