Vallerina 2 #1 September 15, 2005 A funny link (it's about religion, so I figured the safest place to put it is here....) http://www.godlessgeeks.com/LINKS/GodProof.htm My favorites: Quote TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (I) (1) Check out the world/universe/giraffe. Isn't it complex? (2) Only God could have made them so complex. (3) Therefore, God exists. ARGUMENT FROM BEAUTY, aka TELEOLOGICAL ARGUMENT (II) (1) Isn't that baby/sunset/flower/tree beautiful? (2) Only God could have made them so beautiful. (3) Therefore, God exists. MORAL ARGUMENT (II) (1) In my younger days I was a cursing, drinking, smoking, gambling, child-molesting, thieving, murdering, bed-wetting bastard. (2) That all changed once I became religious. (3) Therefore, God exists. ARGUMENT FROM CREATION (1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists. (2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable (3) Therefore, God exists. ARGUMENT FROM BLINDNESS (II) (1) God is love. (2) Love is blind. (3) Stevie Wonder is blind. (4) Therefore, Stevie Wonder is God. (5) Therefore, God exists. ARGUMENT FROM INFINITE REGRESS (1) Ask Atheists what caused the Big Bang. (2) Regardless of their answer, ask how they know this. (3) Continue process until the Atheist admits he doesn't know the answer to one of your questions. (4) You win! (5) Therefore, God exists. ARGUMENT FROM TERRORISM (III), aka PERCHANCE'S SISTER'S ARGUMENT (II) (1) September 11th was really, really bad. (2) We have bad things happen to us when we're doing something bad. (3) Therefore, September 11th was a punishment for something we did. (4) Maybe it was being arrogant? (5) Yeah, that's it! (6) God let September 11th happen to teach America humility. (7) Therefore, God exists. There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samurai136 0 #4 September 15, 2005 My favorite is: I believe in God because the Bible tells me so. It's flawless reasoning. If you have a manifesto that proclaims your existence to others that proves you exist. Natch. I'm still working on my Manifesto.

StreetScooby 5 #11 September 16, 2005 Quote ...asked him if he wanted a beer. The fact that beer exists is proof enough there is a God. I mean seriously, it can't be more self evident. What further proof do you need? Even more, the fact that beer flows further demonstrates that God is a verb.We are all engines of karma Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StreetScooby 5 #16 September 16, 2005 A teacher asked her class one day, which part of your body enters heaven first? Little Suzie raises her hand and answers: your hands. You pray with your hands clasped in front of you, and that's what God grabs when he takes you to heaven. The teacher replies - Very good Suzie. Little Johnnie raises his hand and answers: your feet. The other day, I walked by my parents room and my mom had her legs straight up in the air, and she was screaming - "Oh god, I'm cumming, oh god, oh god...". If Dad hadn't been laying on top of her, we would have lost her. The teacher fainted.We are all engines of karma Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
