I therefore believe the universe, the Maya in Hindu terminology, is no more than an illusion flowing forth from the all encompassing truth that is Brahman. Through the illusion of the Maya we are taught of the true Reality.

you can't kill divinity.  you can kill people, you can kill plants, you can kill animals, you can kill PLANETS (that one's pretty easy *leans back and stares at imaginary factory spewing smoke everywhere*) you can kill anything, but you can't kill the divine.

sure, jesus died, but because he wanted to to save us from our sin.

this goes to everyone here.[/B]

I wanna insult you real bad.

Instead, I'll just ask you to prove that the divine can't be killed.

I agree with meiscool here.

Theres something about Christian ideology that makes people talk like authorities when quoting their falsely axiomatic dogmas.

Don't say things with such a tone of finality, it makes you look naive.

Hah, indeed. On that subject, according to some new translation work, 616 is the actual number of the beast, 666 being an old translation error.

I am a strong Christian and it effects everything I do.

I'm a strict Thelemite, but I don't state my beliefs as unquestionable fact.

Turns out, disappointingly enough, they were wrong. It is 666.

I wanted all those rock bands to look like idiots. Oh well, can't win them all.

Ooooh  oooh oooooooooooooHHHHHHHHH!!!!! I wanna hear the insult! PM it to me! XD

and as for proof, you can't really fairly ask for proof of something like that.  there's only two Godly things in the world, and neither have been recordedly killed.  (as in, dead for real, not resurrected  -_-)

that's like asking a non christian how can you prove God doesn't exist.  or saying to a nonchristian scientist 'prove that it wasn't god who made the universe' and so on.  I mean no offense to anyone, I'm just trying to state my opinion.

please no one hold any hard feelings for anything I say here okee? (as you can tell, the past two days I have been very at peace with myself  )

[Darkfox]

I will be at peace with myself as soon as my tests are done.

Indeed, but the burden of proof lies always with the person making the claim. If I said to you that there were invisible, undetectable fairies in my room, would it be your responsibility to prove me wrong? Of course not, it would be mine to prove it to you. In reality, you could never prove me wrong.

I was raised Catholic (Damn guilt is still with me), but after the Church disowned my brother for being gay, as well as basically the rest of my family figuring that our actions, whether we went to church or not, probably qualified us for hell (Quite strict requirements to get into heaven, if you ask me), we stopped going and don't really bother with religion.

It's not that I don't like the idea of God - he seems to be a benevolent type of guy, what with creation and all - but it's the people that believe in him and talk about his existence and actions as if there was no way you could not believe it that annoy me.

[Moosetroop11]

Mmhmm. I'm mystified by people who are completely certain that their god exists. Mystified, and a little envious that they have this protection in their minds. When I die, I'm pretty sure I'm going to be thinking "This is the end. ****."

I've decided that being religious is along the same lines as a mother's love for her child- she can never, ever explain that love to anyone, that bond she feels. Mothers say that you don't know true fear until you have children and one is in danger. I don't think a religious person could ever justify their beliefs, which is why we have to learn to be respectful and abide by them, rather than understand them.

I guess that's why christians seem to have this pompous attitude. If you really believed that someone was going to spend eternity in hell, if you were absolutely certain of it, wouldn't you try and save them? I would.

I hate people that ask me to prove atheism as a viable idea....

[Kinslayer]

Meh, I'm a believer, not a religious guy. There's a huge difference between religion and filosophy, and I believe because of filosophy, no cathecism teacher or no priest made me believe. If I just heard the stuff those guys have to say, I'd remain an atheist.

I'm not gonna explain my points... because I'm too lazy xD

Besides no one has real proof to what they say.

You can't go on the street screaming "lol there's no God" or "lol there's a God", because no one ahs real proof or statements. In the end it's all a matter of what you believe in.

And WHAT you do with your belief is more important than the belief itself, I say.

For example, I'm a christian, but most of my friends are atheists.

I'm not gonna start running around with a Bible and go "belieeeeeeeeve you sinful demon!" because that would be a lack of respect towards the other's belief.


Besides, the dictators of Argentina during the 70's are catholics, were supported by the most powerful sectors of the Church, and go to church every sunday.

To me, wether they believe or not, those guys are burning. And my friends who are atheists surely are going to Heaven. That's all.

That's why I find the whole "there's God- there's no God" discussion as a pointless thing.
