ur very confident in your choice..i wouldnt call myself an aithest just becasue i hate being labeled.
clones prove you can have one parent so do worms as for ressurection there are dogs and cows who had an alcohol saline solution put into them replacing blood and they were brought back from clinical death after 9 days.... it's spooky as for the old testament there is a great deal of metaphor, fundies problem is that they don't get that, they are fundamentalists, they take each word literally, the use of parables shows that god uses metaphor, the explanation of parables (that others could understand his message) covers everything from 7 days to just about anything else you could choose
i fifnd it funny how alot of priests or fathers whaever you call them are like. adaultry is 1 one of the 10 commandments and two seconds later they malest children.
the fact that the 10 commandments are still taught as christianitys supreme law speaks to how little people really examine what jesus did to the church
A clone is an identical copy of the parent and this doesn't happen in nature, Jesus was not an identical copy of mary... I don't see your point. Asexual reproduction also does not happen in mammals, which is ewhy I included the qualifier people. Jesus looked kinda wormy, but trying to make that theres some sort of scientific basis for the events in the bible is ludacris, and sort of takes away from the point of 'god' doesn't it? If you have faith, I can't really talk you out of it, but I can say that people can't reproduce assexually.
completly rebuilt it, sacrificed himself that the weight of the sins of those who would accept that sacrifice would not bring them down to hell without jesus you sin once you are gone with you can be a child molestor and still make it to heaven but the thing is there is built in repentance and all sorts of other sorts of nifty things that I am totally incapable of explaining, mostly because I have piss poor communication skills.....
yes, and then there was that teacher near Ponoka Alberta who taught all his students [and not just one year, many many years, like 30+] that the holocaust was a jewish ploy and how it was fake and yadda yadda yadda...now lets mistrust ALL teachers now shal we... and dave, i know what you're talking about, or at least i think i do...are you refering to the thing where Jesus refers to the Laws or the Prophets not passing until all is fufilled, and how many today think that "fufilled" would probobly reference the second coming, when it probobly means the crucifixion and ressurection?
with proper equipment and scientific advances we will be able to modify genetic code that one parent will be able to have a child suffieciently different that one would not have to draw that beard, this would also eliminate the problem of replicative fading, but that is completly seperate and only a practical use of such manipulation (also modifying someones genome to change their gender or modifying an embryo {or fetus} so it would not have a gender linked disease) wow, I should not be thinking practical uses for fucking with dna should I?
Heaven is a saftey net that atheists can't offer people. But what kind of god would send people to hell for eternity for not acknowledging him? God sounds like a shallow, needy child to me, I certainly wouldn't let people suffer in burning flames for eternity for not placating my ego trip. Am I more merciful then god? Me: 2 god: 0
god is merciful, he just gave people free will and is unwilling to save fools from their folly would you want to hang out with temporal fools for eternity? I know I wouldn't.......
