Evolution. If the student never questions the master, then he can't consider himself open minded. By basing his life on a book written 2000 years ago by people, not by God, he is living life too linear. Why not explore yourself, use the knowledge you have (this doesn't apply to some) and make your OWN decision.Quote:

Awee Jay, just because I can't prove that The Flying Spaghetti Monster exists, because he is undetectable by current technology AND, doesn't mean that he and his noodley appendages don't exist!Quote:

But that also goes into presuppositions about how sovereign you believe God to be. Not attacking you bro. I'm just saying there are holes in his statement.Quote:

Just saying what it is.Quote:

Why are we the only planet with life for millions of light years? How did we evolve in such a short period of time? Are there other dimensions? Can we access them? The list goes on. In the end, I conclude that it's either luck, God, or aliens. To me, I feel like it's a mix of the last two. God does exist and what we call aliens now, ancient civilizations called angels, demons, gods, etc.Quote:

And I feel that more and more people are "seeing through the BS" because they grow up in school being taught the theory of evolution and no other valid theory. Creationists have valid theories. UFO'logists have valid theories. I've heard the argument, "do you think a child can be trusted to make his own decisions on these things?" That's hypocritical since you're still feeding them ONE theory involuntarily. I believe that if all theories were presented in schools, we'd have more diversity of opinion. Most of the people "seeing through the BS" are basically ingesting and regurgitating what they were given...not what they learned for themselves with an open mind.
The irony of the open mind argument is that it seems people are open to everything except religion. So the accusation of closed mindedness applies just as much to those people as it applies to the people they accuse.
Listen, honestly, I'm not trying to debate. I'm only responding to responses. Giving a different side of the coin, if you will. Don't automatically black list me and have animosity toward me for thinking differently. I've been a part of this board for a while and never shoved my beliefs on anyone. I don't plan on it either. I just felt it was necessary to chime in on that priest since it makes no sense. It would make more sense for an atheist to make that claim.
I hope we're all good. I appreciate all you guy's responses.
Well what does "God" want? Because who could ever know what he wants since this mythical creature never shows up. If somebody knows what he wants then that person is making up whatever he's got in his head or is basing what "God" wants on books written by men...So you faithful really don't have a relationship with "God"!!!! The faithful have a relationship with a character from a book written by men, so without Religion there's no "God". So someone tell me what "god" wants or thinks without using a book and I want your source!!!!!!!Quote:
