  1. Correction, Your God, not everyone believes in your god. Jesus's death was hardly a sacrifice for an Omnipotent being, a sacrifice is to lose something, what did God/Jesus lose that he couldn't replace? The fact that Jesus constantly stated He was the Son of the Jewish God (Jehovah) should dispell any confusion here. A sacrifice isn't "to lose something", but rather The act of offering something to a deity in propitiation . Propitiation means taking away God's wrath, and this is what Jesus' death (the perfect sacrafice) does for those that have Him as their Saviour. So God offers himself to himself to take away his own wrath? If Jesus is God the offering part was redundant as God already had/is Jesus. So was the sacrifice just to finalise it, or just the blood sacrifice God so enjoys?
  2. what? that's a huge contradiction there my friend. The definition of Biblical God is inconsistent, hes omniscient and omnipresent but has emotions based on recent events. Hes perfect but decides to create, what could possibly a perfect being want by creating something new? Was he lacking something? The Bible says he loves us and wants us to love him. A fully perfect being would have no need for love, as it would already have total satisfaction from itself. Where is it written that God needed our love? He was perfectly fine on His own. He created us because He wanted to love us and for us to love Him. Wants are to fill needs.

  5. What does this have to do with fake foot prints? I don't think you've read all of the refutal. The 6 foot stride wasn't all that made them fake. So everyone was giants back then? Water vapor is heavy, if the biblical flood did occur the atmospheric pressure would've crushed humans before they even drowned.
  6. Your evidence for that is? From http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/paluxy.html
  7. A miracle is divine intervention, now wheres the proof any of the things you listed are miracles? Too many times I hear when doctors save a life its a miracle, the doctors did their job but instead these people twist it to serve their own religion.
  8. frogact: You do realise the Paluxy River tracks were hoxes? Even most Creationists reject them. Study showed some were counterfeit carvings, others showed to be dino prints that weren't fully exposed.
  9. Evolution and the Big bang are scientific theories, which means they are theories to explain the scientific observations and evidence.
  10. You die thats what happens. Everyone has or will do it, but to follow a religion or belief just because it comforts your mind seems to be a somewhat weak belief. In any case what happens when you die is as much speculation as what created everything.
  11. But if there, in all those years, no logical explonation has been found... What makes you think that there will be found one soon? So you suggest people give up finding the answers? Yea sure, we've got a good gap filler called "God". Too bad we didn't do it sooner, the ill and mentally disabled would still be getting "cured" via prayers and exocisims.
  12. You mean like Vacuum energy or zero-point energy?
  13. (edit: nvm)
  14. So how does it renew itself? The energy? it doesn't. If you mean the matter then it renews itself from other energy sources.
  15. Please, refute my actual reasons, where are my objections to matter being eternal wrong? The things of this earth can break down and renew because they are given energy from different places (ie the sun). In the beginning, how can this matter get energy enough to reproduce? And how does a non-living thing reproduce? Matter is just another form of energy. Energy is never created or destroyed.
  16. A God doesn't mean the Biblical God, so you can't predict who'll be in the wrong. You may find yourself to be one of them, if whatever God finds you guilty of misleading people.
  17. I'd disagree with that. Drawing on my own experience, I've never met an atheist who fully bases his/her life on a practise of "higher morality", if you will. I suppose it's because if a person has no motivation to actively do what a religion says is good, they'll eventually give up. Moreover, most religions have as a central command that you worhsip their god, and that all the other good things you do are useless without this. "higher morality" is relative to whatever religion the person follows. This kind of thinking makes it easy for religious extremists to start wars, kill, torture, and other atrocities. Its a righteous duty, as you said their central command is their God, and from this if their God says its ok then its ok. Higher morality from a religious view doesn't mean benefit to everyone, only benefit to your beliefs.
  18. Science does need something "greater" then what is possible according to science in order to support it's existence. Let's go back in time. Back all the way to the beginning! *booooooooom!!!!* the big-bang! What caused the big bang? This cuts both ways, saying God did it is an excuse to avoid the question. As far as science needing something greater, its a method of finding answers using evidence. What "greater" thing did you have in mind?
