    You didn't do a very good job.
  2. beowulf
    If lots of people believe then it must true? Is that what you are trying to say?

    God is a throw back to ancient times when nearly everything was attributed to a god. I can understand why people want to believe in a god. It still is not logical to believe there is a god. The belief in gods is not logical at all. For you to analyze the Bible assuming that it was written by God is an excercise of your imagination. God is something you want to believe so you believe despite the logical fallacies involved in believing. The way the Bible was written it has convenient catch alls for everything. When you ask hard questions, well that is God's way and who are we to question God. Faith is what is used to keep people from thinking.

    If you came up with something that actually made sense then there would be no misunderstanding. There still is no evidence of any gods much less the Christian God.

    For the US Nationals it is in the Skydivers Competition manual. http://www.uspa.org/publications/manuals.htm

    Creation attests to his being actually really there. Seeing as how complex the world is the FSM must have made it. Yesterday I almost tripped. If weren't for my faith in the FSM I would have actually tripped. He saved me from tripping and falling flat on my face! Miracles happen all the time.

    Some how I don't think the results would be the same.
  9. beowulf
    You can definitely count me in. Wouldn't miss it for anything. I had a great time last year.

    Now I'm confused. I thought that it had already been proven. What are you referring to? Evolution? It is a theory that has a lot of evidence, but has not been entirely proven. Unlike Creationism, the Evolution theory is a work in progress.

    God didn't deliver you anything. You did what you had to do. If there really was a god out there looking after you, then why would he look after you and not all the people in the world starving to death? Why are you more special then they are? I will tell you why. There is no god. You benefited from your own hard work and took advantage of the opportunities available. Anything else is superstition.

    So you are unhappy with life? I still think it is all one big fairytale. LIfe is what you make of it.
  13. beowulf
    Hope for what?
  14. beowulf
    What does it do for you?
  15. beowulf
    It's pretty much impossible to have evidence of something not existing. If there is no evidence of something then there is no reason to think it exists. If you had any evidence at all of any god at all then I wouldn't argue with you. But you seem to be confused as to what constitutes evidence.
  16. beowulf
    very funny and yet there has yet to be any evidence of the existence of any god anywhere.
  17. beowulf
    You are still basing your reasoning on an assumption. People do strange things.
  18. beowulf
    You are just assuming they wouldn't write about the fall of Jerusalem after the fact. ASS U ME People do all kinds of strange things.
  19. beowulf
    With out any evidence at all I think it requires a lot of faith.
  20. beowulf
    I find this very interesting. You believe we live in a world with out coincidences? hmm So you don't believe anything happens by chance at all? So if you go to a casino and play roulette and bet the house on 7and win then it's God looking after you? What if you lose? Is that God punishing you for gambling? You really might want to rethink the no such thing as coincidence stance. A world with out coincidence means that everything is being controlled by an outside force. That means we have no free will.

    It's a CRW term meaning another skydiver under canopy docked on to her canopy.
  22. beowulf
    Neither. Those people have ceased to exist. We have no evidence to the contrary.
  23. beowulf
    yeah well we don't have very people interested in even trying CRW here. Wish we did I would like to do more CRW jumps.
  24. beowulf
    I try to make it a point to jump with the new jumpers who are interested in Freeflying and video and do some coaching for free just to get them started. I do this not just to be helpful and to make friends of them but also to help myself by increasing the number of freefliers we have at our dropzone. That way there is a larger pool of potential great freefliers for me to jump with. I don't mind if they exceed my abilities as long as they are still willing to jump with me. btw I also like to wow the AFF students by showing them video of freeflying. Most of them have never seen anyone head down or sitflying. I look for the ones who's eyes get as big saucers and do my best to encourge them to finish AFF and RW training so they can start learning to Freefly. I know I know shamefully introducing them to the DARK SIDE.

    A painting is empirical evidence that there was a painter. A building is evidence that there was a builder. The irreducible complexity of Creation is 100% proof that there was a Creator. It doesn't take religion or faith to see that. Just eyes that can see and a brain that works. Such simplistic reasoning doesn't correlate to "Creation". Not only that how do you know the Christian God is the one that created everything?
