No, it's actually not stupid at all, because the extreme in question has manifested directly from the belief. A religion is only as meritorious as its capacity for interpretation, especially if it allows interpretations as heinous as those widely accepted in Saudi Arabia and other parts of the...

Better than nothing, I guess. It's pretty much guaranteed you'll get to see her though. Plus it's cheap, and I like cheap.

Damn, she might be stoned to death for adultery now. Oh well. God wills it, I suppose.

I propose you add the expletive 'shit' between 'knows' and 'all' in your custom title.

You haven't used any 'scientific theory'. You've used nonsense and pseudo-scientific jargon. Like I said, if I thought there was something to refute, I would've done it a fair while ago. But because it's pretty clear you don't pay much attention to anything that isn't written in a 1300-year-old...

Does Allah approve of you calling people 'fucking fags' in what has so far been a rational debate, from one side at least?

I never thought it'd reach the point where I wouldn't even have to bother with counter-argument. Alas, the religious types never cease to amaze me.

Rebel, Rebel this Saturday is where it's at if you wanna catch her before she goes back to the UK. It's a much bigger venue than 77. Tickets are $15 at the door I think, but I'm planning to get a bunch of free passes.

I wasn't referring to you. I didn't actually consider your arguments (if you can call them that) worthy of a response.

I don't think you'll find I've directed a word of abuse your way, actually.

Why is it that whenever we corner them intellectually, they scamper off? :\

This is the most trivial line of argument I've ever seen pursued. Theoretically, you could counter anything we throw at you by saying "but you're not me" in your childish fashion. Realise I don't have to be you to relate to your experiences. Am I not human also? Why would God see fit to make...

I'll also just mention at this point that I attended a Catholic school and was raised in a Catholic family. Don't assume non-believers don't know what they're on about, because in all likelihood they know far more than believers - and no, I'm not talking about the ability to memorise a couple of...

Institutionalised religion is the worst human invention to date.

Nope, I don't know about your suicidal tendencies, but I do know that whatever 'saved' you wasn't God. It was probably your blind belief in what you perceive to be your God. You didn't experience crap. By your logic, I can just as validly say this: I was going to kill myself, but then I...

NTB is quite correct. The traditional definition of a God is tri-omni - He must be omni-benevolent, omniscient and omnipotent. The mere fact that something or someone was behind the creation of the universe doesn't necessarily mean that entity (if any) is all good, all powerful and all knowing...

I would just like to add that Robert Forsyth is an idiot.

Christ = Jew. Don't be daft, you haven't experienced God either. What, you think because you prayed to pass an exam, and passed it, that God answered some last minute prayer of yours? Short of him possessing your hand and writing your exam response for you, such 'miracles' have nothing to do...

This is a believer I can respect.

No.
