• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Actually, that's not necessarily true. If God were almighty, he could always - always - make the world a better place. Any attempts to improve its quality would ultimately be futile, regardless of how benevolent he is; he'd always be infinitely far away from the best of all possible worlds...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    What title of a creationist site would you not hate?

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    I think, by now, you'd be hard pressed to find someone unaware that you're a proud quasi-Communist.

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Well, if God did exist and he was indeed almighty, then he would be capable of caring for us as well as anyone else in this universe.

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Oh, I disagree with you both! You may find the inner workings of living organisms interesting, or the sciences of physics and chemistry fascinating, but complexity is - first of all - too subjective to be a good matter of debate, and - secondly - relative, and must be compared to something. What...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Mm, I wouldn't be so sure...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    No, but it certainly doesn't eliminate the possibility!

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Actually, I'm pretty sure that if there was no such thing as morality, we would be attacked a lot more. [I'll cover this later; several of your arguments revolve around the same thing.] Morality is not the "alleged mark". In the example I provided - where morality tells you not to beat people...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    One-sided... perhaps. I tend to think pretty highly of myself; you'll have to excuse that. Ah. But here's the thing: you cannot entirely separate the individual from society as a whole! Morals are there not for the benefit of governments, councils and religious icons, but for the benefit of...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    I am not a moral absolutist - far from it! In fact, people tend to frown at me for even suggesting that murder and stealing may, in fact, be rational courses of action under the right circumstances... Morals serve a purpose - forgetting that purpose makes you blind and stupid. Still, answer me...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Ah! But, believe it or not, you - yes, you - will often find that the "perfect" course of action is frequently one that most people would consider morally right... I do agree that religion is a dangerous tool with which to control and influence people for personal gain... but this is not the...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Exactly. In other words - morals exist! That's what you're saying, isn't it? That we humans created morals? Well, no, not if you think about it. I'm willing to bet that "don't kill" and "don't steal" are moral principles that were born from the ingeniousness and complexity of the human mind...

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Ah! That depends on how you define morals, though. Morals are subjective, but nonetheless existent!
  14. Music Dragon

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    That's pretty irrelevant, though. I think it's very sad how people tend to assume that atheists have no morals whatsoever.

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    So what? Whether it's God or a Baconator has nothing to do with this; why is your God more believable than his hamburger?
  16. Music Dragon

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Perfectly relevant; he's choosing to believe in something that has no evidence to support it whatsoever, just like you.
  17. Music Dragon

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Yes, evidently. Why?
  18. Music Dragon

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    He understands religion perfectly well. Question is, do you understand faith? Faith basically amounts to believing in something that lacks credible evidence.

    Does a God of ANY KIND exist?

    Naturally, everything written in a book is true...?
