So why did you say the Chrsitians were winning? If I had known that this poll included Bebekung Mampa Hoonanooga, I'd of course have voted 'yes'.Originally Posted by Byzantine Prince

The bloody trouble is we are only alive when we’re half dead trying to get a paragraph right. - Paul Scott
And in the last 'Pope' thread BP declared himself his own god, so one assumes he voted "yes".
Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.
The poll itself doesn't specify which religion. It simply asks weather you beleave in a god or not.
The Christisn thing was just an assumption I made about who might have voted, it's irrelevent to the poll!
I'm not god yet.And in the last 'Pope' thread BP declared himself his own god, so one assumes he voted "yes".![]()
What's taking so long?Originally Posted by Byzantine Prince
I assume that the poll asks if there is a god who is not me, so I'll have to vote no.
Remember, if you are God them I am UBERGOD!Originally Posted by Byzantine Prince
Btw I voted yes because I'm a good person and catholic. So ha.
Why do you hate Freedom?
The US is marching backward to the values of Michael Stivic.
Somebody had to be there to turn the key and start the engine of creation (not the Joe Satriani album).
I think we dont even know ourselves, its hard to determine if there is a god or not. I believe in god. I dont believe in church-company that exploits relligion. I dont believe that god has to be my babysitter or personal gini(sp?).
I know alot of unfair things happen in the world but as my people say:along with Athena move your hand also. Meanning dont expect everything from above.

What about agnostics?! Ohh well, no possibly, so I'll have to say yes...
It was not theirs to reason why,
It was not theirs to make reply,
It was theirs but to do or die.

-Inscription on the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior
Yes, I think we should beleave God. There is no way we can know for sure. Hence agnosticism is the only logical choice.

Agnosticism is a form of atheism. You don't know for sure weather god exists, correct?
Well if you are skeptic that means that your brain knows that there is no god but the futility and meaninglessness of the world bend your will to saying: "well maybe he does exist since without him the world is meaningless". So deep in your logical part of the brain you KNOW, you are 100%, god does not exist, but in your emotional part you think he does. You are split because you haven't considered other options
Well maybe the world is MEANT to be random and meaningless. Maybe THAT is the meaning of it.
Assumption alert. How do you know how all Agnostics think?Originally Posted by Byzantine Prince
I believe in God.
I believe in God and I believe he has a wonderful sense of humor, that's why BP is here.![]()
RIP Tosa
I don't "beleave" in God simply because I'm not sure if he exists, it can't really be proven that he doesn't exist hence it is reasonable to doubt his existence. I don't mix in any emotions, my belief has nothing to do with conceiving the world to be meaningless, infact I don't perceive the world as meaningless...Originally Posted by Byzantine Prince
If so then you are not agnostic. You are what Big_John is, which is apathetic atheists. You just don't care weather god exists or not. You don't even want to deal with that. accept accept reality as it is rationally concivable: total and obsolete randomness and meaningless until you give it your own individual meaning.Originally Posted by Snowhobbit
