I think the reason for disbelief in God and religion is - 08-18-01

So that everyone can live how they wish..not have to answer to anybody. Not that i'm criticizing the Catholic church, i'm not, but it does have a lot of followers and part of the reason I think that is is because it's not too restrictive, you don't really have to live up to certain principles.....This is not to cause arguments...

I answer to myself all the time. When I commit a crime I answer to the judge and jury but yeah dogma is unwanted by a lot of people.


Work is of two kinds: first, altering the position of matter at or near the earth's surface relatively to other such matter; second, telling other people to do so.

Well what I meant was a higher power...not officials. One that could leave a lasting judgement...but I know what you're saying.

Unless you believe in a God that doesnt judge.

That isn't why I, personally, don't believe in God. I guess in most senses, I do believe in God. I just dislike most organized religion. Most of them are as bad as those who don't believe. Most of them take God's rules and twist them to fit their needs. At least the others who don't believe just say "fuck it, I don't believe in any of it, and I'm not going to pretend to."


absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Well I'm part of organized religion and I think it's great...of course i researched it completely before I chose to believe that way...things aren't the way we want them all the time..no paying the teachers on stage....they all work and pay their own way...and we donate to keep up our place of worship...which looks like a house really...

Yeah, but your little proof gets in every else's way of living the life the way they want to, or, on a less generalized scale, it gets in the way fo us ahving a serious conversation.

hehe... then you're missing the point Guy...

*smiles gently* i AM being serious... and these ARE serious conversations... philosophy isnt all about taking the nature of being down its its logical conclusions... philosophy is the art of exhistence... the beauty of living... the study of life...

*stands up and goes to the window* there's just so much...
