A Christian with social problems. Do these problems include xenophobia, homophobia, racism, sexism, or ignorance? This may be a result of reading the bible too many times. Wow.

I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." —Albert Einstein “It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated.

Heed your own advice. You just insulted a majority of the world's population by insulting soccer. Smooth. As for the different versions of the bible being compatible with science, I have another problem. According to the King James version, unicorns exist. In fact, they were mentioned eight times. “Just freaking think before you speak.”

Let's also let him decide for himself whether the Earth is flat. Let's let him decide for himself whether the holocaust was justified. Let's let him decide whether the Earth is the center of of the universe. Did you let your children decide? If you haven't had children yet, will you let them decide? Letting a child decide requires teaching them all of the options. These include Christianity, Atheism, Agnosticism, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, and countless others. If you let the kid decide, he might wind up believing that we live on the back of a giant turtle, or dancing around a fire worshipping cave-bears. Yeah let the kid decide for himself.

If I wanted people praying for me, I'd ask. And that would make me a Christian. Which, in case my username didn't make clear enough, I'm not. So cut it out. Stop praying for me.

People need to learn to pick up a book before they start leaving comments that are meant to sound educated.

Atheist: Oh boy, here we go. Theist: I mean, to assume that everything just suddenly appeared out of nowhere? Something from nothing? That's a real leap right there. I don't know how you do it. Atheist: I dunno, I think your theory about a giant ethereal Wildebeest farting the universe into existence is a bit more of a stretch. Theist: What? I don't believe that... Atheist: Really? Wow, you must think I'm some kind of ignorant asshat." This is essentially what this argument is going to turn into. Google image search this:

In the original Hebrew of Genesis, the word that is translated most often as day was simply a generic term for a unit of team. It could have been a million years or more each, so long as each was a distinct unit of time. I'm really pissed off at people who seem to think just because a lot of people think something, that automatically makes it true. A lot of people like soccer, but that thing sucks. In Germany in the 1940s, The Third Reich was extremely popular. Slavery was an accepted form of life for thousands of years, though today we see it as wrong. Just freaking think before you speak.

But you HAVE to admit that the Big Bang theory is pretty, well, easy to go against. I mean seriously energy cannot be created or destroyed only changed into another form. Which would mean that either the universe was made from something I.E, a never ending cycle of imploding universes, the "Closed universe" theory. Or that something LIKE, a God used it's self to create the universe by changing into a different type of energy, (That is a theory I came up with after thinking about the basic laws of physics, but hey I'm just some 15 year old kid, I'm probably wrong.). Then there's the question of; if there was a God, what created him, he can't just exist... Unless the laws of physics don't apply, in which case it's too complex for me to even try and figure out. As a side note: Like most people, I do have an opinion about religion. I just don't give expression to it most of the time. Why? Because religion divides people and motivates them to seek the company of those who agree with them. I don't want to drive anyone away.
