    The Bible

    Which aspects? What's the deciding mechanism? Yes but why do you believe that? What is your justification for imagining your religious text is more true than that of other religions? Can't you see this is likely due to your upbringing?

    The Bible

    So what are you saying? It's there for an interesting backstory? Yea but why? I can't see how one faith can be more true than the other when they all (to me) end up having to rely on the power of 'faith' or the mystery of 'god'... essentially. That's nice of you guys. It's definately not...

    The Bible

    Can you show me the verses which you believe support the fact that this holy trinity exists? ALOT of these people probably aren't atheists you know, they're more just very secular christians etc. But what do you really care if they mock your beliefs? Who are they really hurting in doing so...

    The Bible

    So you believe there's nothing in the new testament that requires such 'interpretation'? May I ask why the old testament is still included in the christian bible if (according to you) it's all outdated since the messiah has now been? That's fine, I doubt robbie1 would be as willing to accept...

    The Bible

    Explain to me your take on the trinity robbie1. What I mean is that I could equally defend the truth of greek mythology as well as you can defend the truth of the bible... Do you disagree? I do respect other people's religions, what makes you think I don't? Thankyou but I really don't want...

    The Bible

    lol I just wanted to know what you thought of the quote... It's a side-track that I may later bring up, it's actually paraphrased St. Augustine. It's also of particular interest to me that you only picked out one of my points. What do you have to say to my claim that I could give equal service...

    The Bible

    I think that'd be covered under 1) as he believes God 'wrote' the bible.

    The Bible

    Through the sort of wild confabulations that would make a holocaust denier blush. Find me a problem with the accuracy of harry potter and I'll do just as good a defense. What do you think of this statement: "The Biblical should not be interpreted literally if it contradicts what we know from...

    Euthanasia

    Re: Should euthanasia be legalised? I'd argue people so depressed that they are willing to have someone eat them probably aren't mentally stable.... but if they are, fine. I'd also argue euthanasia should be punishable where it can be shown the one who performed it gained a great benefit from...

    MetalHeads Are Intelligent!

    According to the westborough baptist church journal of science, black people's opinions are worthless.

    MetalHeads Are Intelligent!

    I'd say those who listen to classical music would probably be smarter than metal but only because for some people they reach a point of loving themselves so much they feel a need to connect with the geniuses of the past who 'understand' them. I listen to metal so I support this research...

    Does God exist?

    I'm an atheist so probably biased, but I feel the chapters on morality etc are good defenses.

    Does God exist?

    Have you actually read it? To me the end of the book is greater than the beginning.

    Does God exist?

    I disagree with much of his overtones that the world would be significantly different if people didn't believe in religion as I'm not sure the majority of people even truly do believe. Funny how where once the church denied the existance of true atheists I am now proposing the opposite...

    Euthanasia

    Re: Should Euthanasia Be Legalised? I've read about the prisoners dillema and tit for tat strategy etc pretty interesting. Yea false is probably the wrong word, but I'm not sure about relative as I don't believe they hold any ultimately proovable validity (once we remove the context etc...

    Does God exist?

    I can conceed that it's probably true that a 'God' by your definition doesn't need a creator, the problem is this leaves us knowing nothing. This possibility is no more likely then there being a mechanism we don't yet understand that created the universe, that perhaps our relative (i.e. known)...

    In NSW these are generally recommendations and not mandatory for entrance to the course.

    Bad Math + Medical Career hopes = success?

    No you haven't, especially if you perform well in biology/chemistry... I doubt the interviewer will give you too much trouble and you're in NSW so as far as I know there's no mandatory pre-requesite math for medicine.
