GTAVercetti 0 #76 September 16, 2005 QuoteQuoteQuote >who has the power to make this. Physics. It's going to be very disturbing indeed when you eventually have to stand and be judged in front of your creator and all you have to hold up in your defense in your physics book. Who said God couldn't make physics? belief in god != belief in Intelligent design. We also KNOW physics exists. We KNOW it produces things. We KNOW it makes things work. There is nothing to say that God did not make physics work the way it does. hell, even Steven hawking said he believes in God. However, sadly, many Christians literally believe the Bible and they throw out most of the science we have built based upon our knowledge of physics. ARGHHHH!!! I am getting sucked back in too!!! I AM GUILTY!!! Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 #77 September 16, 2005 QuoteAre you suggesting that God doesn't have a sense of humor? If man was made in God's image and man has a sense of humor, then it is quite possible that God also has a sense of humor. In that case it may be you that is out voted by God. God has to have a sense of humor.

pajarito 0 #84 September 16, 2005 QuotePlus, when it comes to religion, most people don't rely on evidence to back it up. They use their faith. My point exactly! Any religion worth its weight must have credible evidence to back it up. That’s one big difference between Christianity and other religions. That’s not to say there isn’t an element of faith. There is. But it’s not “blind faith.” QuoteThe standard meaning not breaking any of them, no. Heck, when I was four years old, I stole a pastry from a deli since my mom wouldn't buy it for me. I guess I was doomed since then. At least you’re more honest than many. However, it only takes one once. You are absolutely correct in that you’ve been “doomed since then.” (Correction: Since the age of accountability) By your own admission, you’re a thief (“Thou shalt not steal.”). I’m sure you & I are both guilty of breaking just about all of them. If judged by God’s standard, you & I are guilty and, without salvation by grace through faith, will spend eternity in hell. QuoteDo I think I'm a good person? Yes, but I'm guessing most people think that. There's always room for improvement (ie, I don't volunteer like I used to, I want to drive less than I currently do so that I don't harm the planet as much, etc etc etc.) Most people do think that and are very willing to tell you. It’s not realistic, though. Not when you admit to yourself that you fall short. It’s dishonest and a lie (Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor e.g. “lie”). Whoops…. That’s two.
