Just curious what your beliefs are. Not gonna blast anyone either way. The questions are Do you believe in Heaven and Hell?, Do you believe we were created by God, other being, or Evolution? Expound a bit on why you believe what you do.
I used to not believe that something created us, then believe, then, then, then.....it never ends with me and frankly I want to punch myself in the face because I cannot commit. I like to analyze things over and over before I make a decision. But in this instance I cannot understand it because my brain is just too small and I am just a little grain of sand on this earth, a peon in the evolutionary sense. Without getting too deep with creatonism, I believe something created us. It makes no sense for something to just appear out of the thin air without rhyme or reason. I cannot figure it out. I don't think any of us will figure it out until we get to where we are going (or are not going). I can tell you guys that I have had some absolutely wild dreams about this type of stuff. I am talking dreams that would make the hair stand up on your neck. And no it is not schizophrenia or some other mental health disorder.
Why do you say that? I think the threads concerning this topic recently have been very civil, for an internet forum.
Vito.... So, you think God's probably pretty hip....and has a sense of humor, also? Thanks. Thought I was a loner.
I'm with the pope who has stated that there is no conflict between the Bible and evolution. I believe in a Creator, but the creation doesn't seem to have occurred as described in the Bible. May The Sheep Be With You
Actually.. they have been. I've been reading them late at night waiting to "moderate" a few lonely souls.. but they've been okay. Although.. a few recent threads have been kinda gay.. you know where another member brings up another thread in that thread. It's like fighting with a chic then... and she brings up an old argument.. kinda lame. Continue gents..
I was in hell for a while, now I am in heaven and after I am dead I should be in an urn until someone puts me and the dogs in the woods.
"Although.. a few recent threads have been kinda gay.. you know where another member brings up another thread in that thread." Are you speaking of your doe thread where Dan cites an old DT post about baiting?
History. But I agree with what you are saying, lately. They have been civil. On other forums I have seen ugliness.
No.. not those. Ones where a dude who doesn't agree with someone in one thread.. so he continues his disagreement in another.. but in a way thats slightly condenscending and mildly disrespectful towards the other dude/dudettes point of view. Those ones are so gay... its the internet.. get over it. Someone has rational opinion different than yours.. BIG deal. I'm sure the gentlemen know who they are. Please.. continue with this thread.. but play nice.
I'm 35 years old, been in and out of church all my life, and I'm still unsure on what I believe. I do believe in evolution. Lots of questions on my mind and in my heart, and answers regarding religion are hard to find, for me at least.
My words disappear as fast as I can type them. I wish I knew what I was saying that is causing it. We've had WONDERFUL religion threads without the need for censorship............until now.
