I know that you all have an opinion of me and that's fine. This is the internet after all. It's funny though how impressions of people are formed. Just because I have the label atheist attached to me I think that people here were expecting me to be arrogant and condescending like our friend...

"The best superpower wouldn't be the ability to fly, or to have x-ray vision. The best superpower would be to have the ability to make somebody crap themselves instantly." Ricky Gervais

Nobody is living the life that Jesus preached nobody. Love thy neighbour as you love yourself. Turn the other cheek, be humble, give to the poor. Christianity is mixed up. People turning up at church in their Audis and Range Rovers on a Sunday to tick a box. Not being accepting or charitable...

If the creator isn't interested in my sex life or whether or not I believe, then I can get on board. If on the other hand he's monitoring my every thought and misstep then I'd have to question his motives, and that is exactly what I've done for all of my life.

Oops those quote tags :)

@Wrangler The church in the UK has been forced to apologise to unmarried mothers who's babies were taken away from them because sex before marriage was seen as immoral. This proves that there has been a shift in attitude. Sex before marriage is not viewed by some people as being immoral but is...

Morality is subjective and evolving.

Does anyone here want to talk about the possibility that God created the universe, but not for the benefit of mankind specifically? That hypothesis would tie in with science. God created the conditions for life to exist but with no expectations from his creation. Every species has a chance to...

Ok I understand. The closest that I have been to having an experience with God was one day in summer years ago, me and my wife were in our car driving to see her parents. We got onto the subject of religion for some reason, I remember that it was a hot sunny day, we had the windows down on the...

A man sits down at a bus stop and puts his hat on his lap. A small dog steals his hat and starts to eat it, the man grabs his hat back and angrily says to the dogs owner "keep your dog under control". The dog owner replies "keep it on your head you idiot." The man says "I don't like your...

A theif stole a trifle.... He was taken into custardy.

A fish swam into a wall and said "dam."

I would like to believe that Homosapiens are in some way special but I don't see it. We are just a product of nature and environment just like horses and starfish. As average sized land mammals go, we have done ok, we've figured out a sophisticated means of communication, much like the whale...

The Bible said that happened. The creator of the universe surely wouldn't have appeared only to a few people in a region that was known to be largely illiterate at the time and relied on oral tradition to prove his existence. If indeed the creator of the universe loved us and wanted us to be...

And that's great, I'm glad that you have a strong faith in Jesus and from what I've seen from you have your head screwed on. I'm guessing here but I'm betting that because of your time in law enforcement you've seen the darker side of life. It's good to think that there's something else...

My thoughts on this are mixed. I would love to see my sister again and tell her how much I love/loved her. I would love to spend more time with my dad and give him a huge hug. I would love to feel something more than this mortal life has given me but of course there is a big but. If I'm in an...

Have any of you had a faith wobble and thought to yourselves what if I'm wrong? It seems to me that you're all very certain about who God is, what God wants and how God will treat you in your eternal lives. Do any of you question What you're signed up to? I know that I've asked this before...

Yeah, that's fine. But the thought category is missing.

Because it depends on the definition.
