Speaking for myself, I mock anti-vaccers, 9/11 Truthers, and all sorts of nonsense and pseudoscience. I'm an equal-opportunity mocker.

Lack of discernment will cause you to lump in what does not belong, into what makes you feel good about yourself for mocking.

Intelligent design requires intellectual honesty. on the other hand, its easy to mock that other stuff.

To think that all we see in this life, and how it functions... How they have been "designed?" To think it all could just happen by chance? Well? That does not make you look very smart after all. How can it? Its grandiose denial.

You are in the present, you are in control of your choices now. Your choices will affect your eternity, so choose wisely.

Yeah, choose wisely, you don't have to love God, but if you don't you will spend an eternity being punished in hell. But no, he is not forcing you (third time I posted this and you still have not answered). How is the threat of eternity in hell not forcing me to love him?

If Hitler is a Christian because he has GOTT MIT UNS on his belt buckle, then am I an evolutionist if I wear DARWIN BEI UNS on mine?

Am I a Christian because I have IN GOD WE TRUST on my coins?

But what evidence do you have to suggest that Hitler, homicidal maniac that he was, didn't believe in the scripture? Understandably, he wasn't a Christian on the basis of his actions, but belief wise there is a decent chance he believed in god.

No one likes to think that evil people like that are religious, but crazy comes in all colors and creeds.

Why would you not want to love Santa Claus?

So? Santa was your creator?

Maybe your dad should have kept a closer watch on your mom when she wanted to go down stairs and take one last look at the Christmas tree?


You equate with what does not relate.

Santa gives people presents. God gives people plagues. I see more reason to love Santa Claus.

Don't trust Google to translate my signature accurately.

It's:
Right now, Girls' Generation!
In the future, Girls' Generation!
Forever, Girls' Generation!
Girls' Generation, we love you!



Not that my signature has anything at all to do with the topic -- but that's how you've managed to show everyone you have no argument here. ^_^

If God is outside of time, then how is waiting for anything?

He is not waiting... if only for us to join him in not waiting for anything. For those who believe will enter into eternal life. No beginning, no end. No time. No more night. No aging. Everything will be a constant state of newness.

You could listen to music and live in the thrill of it as long as you choose to. There will be no hurrying. No one will die, and time will not be running out on you.
John 28

"I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
no one will snatch them out of my hand.

Its beyond comprehension.. we can not only think in terms of abstract concepts, not yet live the reality as to truly know it.

Sounds boring.

Adversity is the fuel of progress. To an individual such as myself who is in the sciences, such a situation would lack all that is the very josh of my being. Everything is known, no more mystery to be had, no more challenges to face... why exist for an eternity of no progress and everything staying the same?

And, how do you know all this to be true?
