Ok but I hope you understand that I won't just take your word for it, I don't think you really do have this 'higher understanding' or whatever you believe it is, so far all you've served up is the usual rhetoric I've encountered now quite a few times even in just this thread. I'm not really...

And I'm here to point out what I feel is wrong with your information so that such people can be better informed. No it's all about faith. Based off bad/misguided evidence... for the rest of what you said, I can't even begin to decipher what you might mean. Well I have a right because I...

Well actually quite a large number of christians believe it, I don't think it's that far fetched... but if you want ones that apply to a wider variety of people look to ur_inner_child's post. If you believe there are these rules out there, set by God, that must be followed.. there's a good...

Let me give one example, some christians believe they are living in the end times, so why should they care about problems relating to the environment etc that will only affect future generations?

It's impossible for some religious beliefs to remain personal, not affect your actions / have an impact on other people.

'Supreme' to what? what is the criteria? This whole argument seems to be nothing but rhetoric. Such as? lol proof beyond? Divine? Aliens? WTH? To go to hell or something? Proof of a 'third eye'? Proof of these 'other dimensions (whatever the hell they mean)' ? Because God exists on a...

Waf is about as capitalist as you can get... communists are not his 'mates'.

Evidence against it? I'm pretty aware, it's just usually trivial crap. Well there probably is an aspect of faith, but the thing is I want the religious to be right, I want to go to a 'heaven' when I die, I want to know my friends/family that are gone now are somehow alright... I don't care...

When you claim a law is 'in the constitution' usually the fact that the constitution allows for such a law is not sufficient... there's no need for a referendum on allowing gay mariage.

er yeah... of course that's it.

There sure is some bullshit in this thread now....

Cheating begins when you get caught.

Eh not necessarily, It's just that I think the initial burden of proof for claiming something doesn't exist is that there's no evidence of its existance. lol you get nuttier every day. - I've never seen you make an ontological argument, maybe I missed it, but either way... please just don't...

I didn't claim it was a 'chemical reaction' necessarily, just that any feeling you may have does not mean God exists, just that you have the feeling. I understand what he did. My only point there is that it's wrong to go beyond what you have felt to make further conclusions. Explain how you...

He has to factor in the odds that 50:50 is possible.

With reguard to emotions, I cannot know whether others feel emotions however I can know that I do. So I do know that emotions exist, or at least something that I call an emotion and it isn't that hard to then accept other people when they claim they feel emotions. With reguard to the 'God'...

If it cannot be tested then there's no reason to believe it. I would also believe I am going crazy before I believed that I had some magic feeling within me telling me that god exists, the first to me actually has some basis, alot of people go crazy. There is no way to prove God's existance, or...

Disagreement is fine, I encourage it, the scientific method encourages it. Controlled, independently scrutinised tests? No problem, but I thought from your post you were trying to make out as if faith is something different from reasoning, whereas it is not. Exactly, I don't need the...

Women have much less sex drive by the time they reach their 30's, especially if they've been with the same partner for over a year, when compared with men who's sex drive stays basically the same. One possible reason for this is that women have evolved to keep men wanting more sex.

- What separates a cult from a religion, exactly? - Their private beliefs do influence their lives, it is claimed by some that one of the reasons global warming/the environment matters little to some segments of christianity is because they believe it is the end of days. This is adversely...
