Rebooted Religion Thread (Is there a god(s)?
Seems that old "Is there a god(s)?" thread is gone.
This will be the new one, where it is settled once and for all.

Re: Rebooted Religion Thread (Is there a god(s)?
So I'm sitting here...on the porch couch...and I got to thinking after a pretty substantial smoke...
If bugs are drawn to the light, why don't they follow the sun west every night and die in droves into the oceans? Or do they?
That is religion right there Doc. The sweet spot

End of the day I have no issue with peoples “personal” beliefs. I just feel they should remain personal and not politicized.

You've stated a hundred times in the past few weeks how much you despise the personal beliefs of certain others.
But okay...

Okay then, I don't believe you have a relationship with a "wife, kids, or dog" (I offer no proof).5thhorseman wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2024 3:40 pmBelieving that I love my wife, kids, or dog is not unreasonable.Cornuck wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2024 3:08 pmAnd you every right to disagree.5thhorseman wrote: ↑Sun Jul 28, 2024 2:56 pm I was just responding to Corn's statement. As a general statement I don't agree with it
But.... none of know what Doc's, or anyone else's, deep convictions are. There is a huge difference between a belief that ScooterBoy40 will have (or not have) an amazing season next year. That's conjecture. It's a valid discussion. On the other hand, I'm not going to question anyone's personal faith, which they can nor can't prove, and has no bearing on me or this forum of almost 20 people. It's pointless. It would be trolling to continue on that path for years on end, wouldn't it?
Debate the merits of 'religion' all you want. Don't expect people to constantly defend a personal belief without some pushback.
Do you love your wife, kids, or dog? Prove it!
Believing in that Jewish dude in the sky, well that's a bit more fantastical. It deserves to be challenged
Doc offers no defense, just his personal experience. So the rebate logically now is, as Doc himself states, " Am I crazy or am I communicating with the creator/redeemer"?
My personal belief is that it's all an act (I offer no proof)![]()
Am I doing this right?

Butt seriously, there's nothing to discuss.
I can't prove a Relationship and you can't disprove it.
And since this is now the "religion" thread, we'd be WAY off-topic either way.

C'mon, you've been slagging on Christians/Christianity for decades on these sites!Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Sat Aug 25, 2012 12:52 pm The Christians are just a bunch of dumbass Ozark, KKK, Neo-Nazi, inbreeding, sodomizing hillbillies with banjo's and if not they, they are a bunch of republicans that come from a long line of rich hillbillies.![]()

You're infamous for it.
Also you clearly don't understand what "separation of church and state" means.

Admit it Dude, you're just a a bigoted, hateful ignoramus flailing about wildly.
You think after two decades of this nonsense you can just say:
'Separation of Church and State is my only concern'
... and by some magic everyone will forget what you're most known for?
Yeahno, your hatred of Christians/Christianity is legendary!
No amount of "adjustments" can ever erase dat dere.
YOU NASTAY

Doc, being a person of faith should it not make you more empathetic of others?
