"We will both suffer a physical death eventually. The question is where are you going to be spiritually Randal?
I hope for your sake that you come to know the truth before you die, because after you take your last breath, it will be too late. My heart is saddened by your rejection of Christ, but hopefully you'll come to know Him sometime in your life before it's too late".

Athiest are not evil, they are reasonable...As an Agnostic, I feel it is the highest form of arrogance to assume that any human can presume to know anything other than our own reality...How dare someone claim to know what happens after death? How arrogant to presume to know what "god" thinks! How arrogant for anyone to pass judgement on another human being for lacking "faith" or belief in a system of religion! We know the past that we've lived and our own present reality and there is no way on earth to prove anything beyond that. Religion is simply superstition, hope, and fantasy...I wouldn't deny someone the right to believe what they believe, but don't dare try to force your beliefs on me, or judge me for not believing like you do, or expect me to quietly accept your religion creeping and lurking and slowly spreading into my life and that of others who are entitled to live with free will and an expectation that government runs with the interest of everyone involved without bias and with intelligent reasoning! RELIGION OUT OF GOVERNMENT AND GOVERNMENT OUT OF PERSONAL AFFAIRS!!!!!!!!!

"Religion is the sigh of the oppressed creature, the soul of the souless condition, the heart of a heartless world, it is the opium of the people."
Karl Marx


I for one can't wait till the hypocracy of religion is finally crushed and what a day it will be when churches loose their TAX FREE status...the largest church in my area has a starbucks in it!!! what a crock of ***!...what a bunch of mindless zombies...the more I have to hear of the borish dribble from christians the more I hate them...I don't know which I hate more...religion or george w bush...excuse me while i go vomit!

No, Rick, his 'hatred' doesn't come through, because he hasn't shown any. Yours, on the other hand, comes through loud and clear. You started the fight today with your very first post, at least on this particular story.

I am a Christian, and have been for years. I live my life as I believe I am taught to in the Bible. But I do not rant and rale at everyone like you do. That is NOT a Christian attitude.

Ouch!...Snappy comeback Rick

No...I guess you don't think you're superior, do you
Much later

Here's your chance Rick

Explain the difference between what comes out of your mouth day after day on these boards and what came out of the Pharisees mouths every day...and you know what Christ said to and about them.
You stand on this (virtual) corner every day and condem us all because we're not as godly as you think we should be or you are because you can read the Bible.
You truly are the wolf in sheeps clothing that my God warned me about...you're allowed to have your own opinions, but your problem is that you think you have the "knowlege of God" market cornered...Guess what you don't

sorry to the rest of ya'll for giving this guy the chance to spread more of his tripe

Less then a troll. His screen name says all you need to know about him. The *** part is the most favoraable part of this guy.

Religion to me seems a lot like the Special Olympics; it's kinda funny to watch and very very important to the participants.

I've gotta agree with you there RandalDS. If we were talking about people who live what Christianity claims to be (like my grandparents - deeply religious, never push it on anyone, and set a great example of what a person should be, both in tolerance and in compassion, courage, honor, and goodness) - I think that'd draw people to church. But going to hear sermons about how you should get in the face of people who say "Happy Holidays" (yes, last year at a pre-christmas service!) - hardly any wonder more people are turning their backs on the churches. We're still a small number, but growing!

"God" is dying because people like rick are killing him off. His smugness, his self-satisfied holier then thou attitude is the main reason people are running away from Christianity in droves. He oozes slime and slick oil of cheap salesmanship. He dodges legitimate questions then denies he heard the answers to his pitiful trick ones. He demands that people respect his faith, but then ridicules the faiths of others. he is the ultimate hypocrite and bottom feeder.

Separation of church and state HELPS BOTH!
I won't make you believe my fairytales so don't try to make me believe yours and we will get along just fine.

The absence of religion does not equate to teaching atheism - dummies! Come on now - it's just so ridiculously simple. Saying, "There is no god" - that is teaching atheism. Saying, "There is a god, and he came to earth as Jesus Christ" - is teaching christiantiy. Saying, "2+2=4" is teaching math - and is not, as some are positing, atheistic merely because 'god' is not mentioned!

Keeping religion, all religion, out of our government does not make it atheistic, it makes it secular, as the founding fathers most strongly intended, as our soldiers have fought and died to continue. If it was atheistic - you'd know. An equivalent to the faith-based charities would be an atheistic one where prayer is not allowed to qualify for services, and you listen to a sermon on, "I do not believe in god" to get a bed for the night. Huuuuuuuuge difference between that (the true equivalent to faith-based services), and a standard, secular, charity that helps all without pushing any religious belief at all on them.
