  • Don't you ever get tired of this?

    The same things get asked every week, and they're usually just troll posts. Do you really find this interesting?

  • Does you see anything wrong with my argument?

    (1) God is omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent

    (2) If God exists, then according to the argument by design, he designed us.

    (3) If we were designed, then we must have a purpose.

    (4) If God exists, then either there is no evil or there is evil and we have free will (Best of all possible worlds)

    (5) There is evil, therefore we were given free will.

    (6) If we have free will then we can act accordingly to that free will and thus are not bounded by any rules impeding to the freedom of will

    (7) If we are not bounded by any rules, it is impossible to have a purpose ( in fact the very idea sounds absurd. If there was a purpose we can simply choose to deviate from it (Dostoyevsky) and if there was a restriction that would direct us to that purpose then we could not call that free will)

    (8) If we don’t have a purpose, then by (3) we weren’t designed.

    (9) If we were not designed, then there can’t be a designer

    (10) If there can’t be a designer then, either a- God doesn’t exist, or b-he is not the designer

    Conclusion #1 (following from a): If god exists, then God doesn’t exist (a paradox)

    (11) Follows from (10)b: If god is not our designer, the he could have not possibly given us free will.

    (12) If God didn’t give us free will (4) then he cannot exist.

    Conclusion #2: God does not exist.

  • I believe I am the reincarnation of Bruce Lee?

    Well I've always been exceptional in martial arts without having to do much... I can beat all my friends in a fight. I'm very intelligent and am way into philosophy. I was born here in America, just like Lee. People say I look very much like him. But most of all, I don't know, I just kinda...feel it. Like Lee's spirit is inside me. Is it possible that I am the reincarnation of Bruce Lee?

  • Is this evidence that God might not exist?

    Well here's the thing: theists believe God is always watching, right? They know he is always there for them.

    But I'm absolutely sure there are theists out there who can't take a **** while others are watching. How is this possible? The only explanations are that they acknowledge at the time that God doesn't exist or he just doesn't exist at all.

    How can you go to the bathroom while God, or anyone else is watching? It doesn't add up.

    Checkmate theists.

  • I believe I am enlightened...can anyone confirm?

    So I believe I am going through what Siddhartha Gautama, Jesus, and Kurt Cobain went through, a form of enlightenment where I see the world differently. I am impartial to all things. I am unable to feel emotions such as embarrassment or shame. I am neither homo nor heterosexual. I no longer fear death.

    I have only this one question for all of you, as an enlightened one can not be self-proclaimed. Do you believe I have reached enlightenment?

  • Quick question about Wicca?

    How do I expel a soul from my body? I think I accidentally, while communing with the dead, left a hole big enough for a spirit to enter my body. I've since sealed it up, but now the spirit won't leave. I've tried everything, from long periods of meditation to fapping excessively. I searched online, and studied my own books thoroughly, even my tome of spells, and have found nothing. Please help, the spirit is gaining more cont- **** PENIS ****!!!!!!!

  • How can I summon demons and stuff?

    I got into Wicca and it's a little tougher than I thought. I figured I'd be following recipes like from a cookbook to make potions and rituals and things. Nope. The first book that someone recommended to me was basically 200 pages telling me to meditate more. I mean if I can't do anything cool with it, then what the hell is the point of this religion?

    I guess my question is: When and how do I get to the cool stuff?

  • Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day?

    Since when can a single fish sustain you for an entire day? Are we talking about huge *** fish, like a shark? And just because you teach a man to fish, it doesn't mean they're going to eat for a lifetime. If they were in the position where some random stranger would have to teach them to fish to survive, they're probably lazy homeless people who will turn right back to begging for money, "cuz fishings too hard", or something.

  • Wanna know how I know the Bible isn't completely accurate?

    There's only one book about it. What factual information is there only one book on? Is that single author's interpretation the absolute truth? I mean think about it. You read a history book and you think to yourself...ok, ______ might be true, but I think a different history book might have a different view, different facts.

    You can't do this with the Bible. It would be the equivalent to reading the Odyssey and expecting everything in it to be true. And that's why it is highly unlikely from a logical view that the Bible is accurate.

  • Why God? Why would you do this?

    I have evidence that God is actually homosexual. My question is, why is he so against gays, if he himself is gay? Is it because he hates himself and doesn't want his gayness to be encouraged? What's up with that?

  • Did you hear about the guy that built an ark for the end of the world?

    No it's not a joke. Some guy is maybe halfway done building an 80 ton ark of wood and steel. Used his entire life savings too. I mean it's cool and all, but what is he gonna do when he finds out the world isn't really ending? It would be cool to have afterwards I guess, but it will be a real downer for him knowing he built it for nothing.

  • If God was real then why would he create gays?

    And dooon't give me crap about them choosing to be gay. If God made them, and he's so all knowing, he would have foreseen them doing so and made it impossible for people to decide to be gay when he programmed them. Checkmate theists.
