The Bushmaster won't need God's help to win.

There is seemingly no end of "religious" fakes who seem to involve themselves in politics ... from Pat Robertson on the right to Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton on the left ... shams, phonies, and crooks every one, IMO

There is a GOD you heathen, becareful your not the one struck by a lightning bolt. JonR

JonR

a heathen?

heathen. One who adheres to the religion of a people or nation that does not acknowledge the God of Judaism, Christianity, or Islam.

i may be a buddist, or a Zoroastrian, or the only member of a secret society of one that believes cell phones are the devil's work.

may budda bless you.

or as the hindus say "one only essence the mighty declare in many ways."

JonR

you are a lot of fun for me.

Yo Rick: Heathen; noun.. an uncivilized or irreligious person. Rick you don't have to believe in God to go to heaven but if you don't when the dinner bell rings up there you have to sit at the little non-believers table. LOL JonR

Rick, is it that you do not believe in God, or do you truly believe there is no God? The belief that there is no God requires a lot of faith, since it is impossible to prove. If you have that kind of faith, you are a religious man.

Yo LT: Good point. I never really thought of it that way, well stated. JonR

when i was twelve years old and searching for a meaning, a god if you will, i had an epiphany, "A comprehension or perception of reality by means of a sudden intuitive realization" i realized the existance or non existance of a god didn't matter to me one way or the other so i stopped thinking about
the idea of a god.

i have never found any reason to rethink about it, except in debate with others and then only for the fun of it.

before you ask me where we go when we die, i ask you, where were you before you were born.

i had had some other epiphanies at that age, but they were mostly wet dreams.

Rick, I wish I could remember then name of the philosopher, but in your epiphany you hit on his response to someone who was fretting about eternity. He said "You came out of one unscathed."

Look how long it took us to get one Rickamaven. That much time will surely pass again.

Since it is impossible to prove something doesn't exist, then it must be possible to prove that it does exist.

Go for it.

"when i was twelve years old and searching for a meaning, a god if you will"

When I was a child I spoke as a child I understood as a child I thought as a child; but when I became a man I put away childish things." I Cor. xiii. 11.

JonR,
"Heathen" was a word used for my ancestors, as they were thought to be not religious, while in fact, the indians were quite religious.
So it is not an appropriate word to use, as it has been used out of context for so long, its true meaning has been marred by sarcasm.

out of the mouths of children come truths, unencumbered by political correctness and a need to belong to a herd.

I love it when they try to recruit you by threatening you with hellfire and damnation.

Cigarick, you'll burn for that.

the problem is he likes to burn,but i know he knows GOD
still loves him none the less.Jesus is LORD and GOD still has a sence of humor.

pablo, smokin' the wacky weed is not a religious experience, so, again, step away from the bong!

Rick, I respect your beliefs. The challenge I'll present atheists when a discussion is brought up is simple: Prove he DOESN'T exist.....
Alas, we are all complex individuals with independant thoughts, wills, feelings, etc. and it is exactly that which makes life wonderful.

atheists say there is no god. that is not what i said.

i said the existence or non existence is of no interest to me. the idea of heaven or hell based on your test scores when you were alive, that is supposed to follow death is also of no interest to me.
