Atheism magic

What a weird question, their eternal being lived an eternity before even creating this universe, asking it "why so long?" is kind of weird... You continue to try to put natural limitations on the supernatural. It's like asking, "Can God create a rock he cannot lift?" and pretending you've come up with a deep thought.

Now, if you had a good socialist health scheme you might go and get a free injection of humour. But, as right wingers you must be condemned to live in a dour world of grey where words and thoughts are confined to boxes.

I seldom have deep thoughts and never do I post them here.

the human mind struggles with concepts such as eternity......they still consider that which is not temporal as bound by time.....it is not such much "before" as "outside of".......consider that God may be experiencing our existence not only backwards and forwards, but inside out....simultaneously.......

The thing I can never understand is why would God put us on an insignificant planet, in the backwaters of a nondescript galaxy, if we are his ultimate creation?

and then he chose to incarnate to a fourteen year old, unmarried peasant in a barn in an impoverished town in a conquered country......hard to believe someone made it up, isn't it....

In times gone by, many people including Copernicus and Galileo were hounded by the Catholic church for espousing heliocentrism. Of course, if they had been confronted with the notion of other solar systems and galaxies they would have been even more vociferous in their opposition. There are still many in the US and elsewhere who refuse to believe in Darwinism.

But that doesn't mean that everyone believes we are the end result.
 
I bet it wouldnt be hard to find that belief in religion goes down with education. Certainly this board is chock full of uneducated believers.

Obviously there is a correlation. That is why organised religions were started in the first place, to supply answers to the ignorant.
