Maybe you are lucky in that you don't need those 'delusions' to give your life meaning, although simply stating that life has some meaning means you are just as delusional as me in that you can never prove something like that. We all delude ourselve…

[QUOTE]I think the basic difference between you and I, is that I believe that the unknown is unknown because it is unknown. I believe that it could be known, could be scientifically explained, but that we just haven't gotten there yet. You believe t…

I don't think you can just "exist". why do you exist? can you go back to the begining of everything and tell me it all just spontaneously generated itself, did the big bang explode from nothing? science logicaly lets us conclude that everything in t…

well actualy Darwin belived in God very much, and he was very troubled by the effects his ideas would have on his faith. PJH, science alone can never fufill our need for a greater purpose in life because essentialy it tells people that everything…

right, in end the it just comes down to faith. I just have one question though, Exile if you beleive in a multiverse in which every possible thing is happening and chance no longer exists then arent you basicly arguing what I said but on another…

Yea it does get pretty close to those concepts like in Buddism, but I also see God as having an actual conciousness and acting in some ways like the God described in the Bible. So its not totaly like the eastern veiw in which God or gods are seen as…

I think like JackN wrote, the more you look at science and the infinitetly precise way in which the whole universe works together to create life, the harder it gets to think it all came about through chance. The problem for us is that at first glanc…

I don't know much about the old series, but do they ever find earth?

right, then maybe its more of a universal concept of morality that gets into our stories wether we are concious of them or not. And they last in our collective culture because they resonate with something deep inside us all.

First sorry if I said he when its she, I never really look at. second Tolkien does make many references to his faith in letters he worte to various people of the times. While he may have used nordic myths for the actual dramatic representation of Lo…

seeing as how most of what he wrote was based in part on the western exprience, I think you could argue that it was mostly Christianity that fueled those religious undertones. I think though that the article argues more that its not about him, but r…

I would have thought nuclear power would be the only war of powering such a monster, I can only imagine the cost of fuel that thing would genreate if it were a conventionaly powerd vessel

While i agree that religion has been used to opress people, and fuel fantical wars it seems to me that the worst things we have seen in history were comited by people with no religious ideals. One of the first things the Nazis did was to go against …

I got 81% NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooo damm nerds, they got me even though I didn't know half of those wierd questions.

Not just that, who knows what other forces exist in the universe that could wipe us out in the blink of an eye, how about a black hole, or . Once in history class the point about the race to the moon came up, and the profesor said he could not see t…

Hey i'm sorry for your loss man, unfortunately sometimes people loose hope and choose the path they think will give them relief from the pain if nothing else. I don't post alot here, life has been hitting me with one thing after another, from wh…

It seems stupid to me, full of typical anti-american crap. I'm no fan of Bush, but those jokes are just a tad bit exagerated. What impreses me is how good a job these guys did, its almost flawless, and the way bush's facial movement seems to match t…

I have not seen that e-mail, perhaps you could post it here. In any case it seems improbable that you could solve all the worlds problems with a mere 200 billion, and even if that would cover the cost of building up the entire third world, how c…

But is that really so bad? Everyone seems to be looking towards some grand utopia where everything is perfect. What kind of world would that really be? The truth is that most of the time its adversity that defines us as a species, its only when…

It sure does tell you what Americans are all about It tells you Americans prefer to die, rather than submit to tyranny. Its a concept rooted not in America, but in the very nature of humanity, in that unyeilding determination to be free no matte…

I have not seen the movie yet, but from what I've heard of the Hand I think that they could never do as much damage and destruction as the Shadows did. If this is set 3 years after season 5, thenwe know that by crusade nothing majorly destructive ha…

Well I read somewhere that Lucas worked with someone else who was deeply involved in the first Star Wars. The article I read said that this guy acted as a counter blalance to Lucas, and together they came up with the majic of the original trilogy. A…

Unfortunatly what I wrote was only a vision of what I believe the U.S must do in order to effectively move us closer to true global security and peace. I don't believe at this time our politicians have the vision or the courage to do what must be do…

The reason to go into Iraq with force, and to create positive and long lasting change is the fact which was posted on this forum. The U.S government supported him in his ruthless quest for power, it gave him weapons and money to wage war against Ira…

Any movement in which the person, not the message becomes the primary focus can lead to a corruption of the ideas and principles the movement is based on. Too many people focus too much on the rules of their religion. They get rapped up in ceremony,…
