  • (excuse me for ...

    (excuse me for butting in)i cant tell any of you what to believe(I'm a christian, not a republican) nor will i try, but if God didn't exist, explain your conscience. Would you feel remorse if you killed someone? yes
    Now what about your proof against God? Evolution: scientists found a tooth, then drew some pictures, wrote some bullshit notes and and "disproved God". were there cavemen? yes and no. Cavemen as in the 1/2 man 1/2 monkey kinda person no.cavemen as in men who lived in caves? yes

  • i dont think ...

    i dont think unicorns r a good example, but ill play along. first of all, christians dont keep God in their back pocket. Second, i would believe that you did see a unicorn or whatever it is if you showed me something no one/nothing could make/do execpt a unicorn. i think the wind is a better example, you can't see it, but you can feel, see things in it, and sometimes hear it. which goes to show you that just cause you cant see it, doesnt mean its not there.

    i do, (and im NOT seventeen) i wish the same on you, stop believing T.V. and THINK for yourself. but first of all, you have to remeber, whatever you chose to believe will:
    A, have its benifits or punishments
    B, will need at least a lil FAITH

  • You didn't ...

    You didn't understand my point, did you? Like wolverene said with his metaphore of unicorns, you can't prove he/she/it exists and I can't prove that he doesn't exists as well. Your faith doesn't prove anything since you're still talking about proof. Did you hear on religious TV that caveman didn't exist? 'cause you never prove the bones and Darwin theory wrong. (sorry for some words in french, I just don't know the good translation).

  • You usually can ...

    You usually can never prove a good scam wrong or right. But there is one question I've had for these nuts since I graduated from Catholic school: why does their God need money? And do the Aboriginal folk (who've had their order far longer than the un-Christlike christians) go to hell because a bunch of assholes from England couldn't reach them to "offer" (NOTE: not FORCE heh heh) them their idea of a deity? No priest in my school could ever comment on that one. They didn't like my questions.

  • Theree billions of ...

    Theree billions of things science/studies cannot explain. Almighty God is one of them. sorry, but you have to realize, even though there isn't proof, it's called 'faith' for a reason. it's something we feel. because we cant tell you exactly why/how he exists doesn't mean ur correct.
