alien abductions

[nailit]

Is there any breakdown of where alien abductions are supposed to have taken place? It seems that the majority of 'abductions' take place in the USA.
just curious as to where this 'phenomonon' occurs and why.

Sith, Sort your own thinking out, I can't do it for you. ;-)

did i say i believe in UFOs? no, i said i believe in aliens. Jom, i dont need you to help sort my thinking out. if you did it would probably be worse. sort your thinking out as well, i mean it is pretty pathetic that you ask why do i say "for gods sake". it is an expression. Why should i not say it. i think it is a whole lot more pathetic if an atheist said it as they do not believe in god, yet they do say it. I do, so whats the problem in me saying it? can you answer that for me please.

Sith, any chance of answering my question?

Why do you think that whatever the aliens look like, humans are a lot more advanced technically, physically and mentally?

By the way, saying 'for God's sake' is considered blasphemy. Atheists reject the concept of blasphemy totally – but for the religious it’s a sin.
That's why your use of the expression has been questioned.

Naomi, thanks for explaining that to Sith. I had mistakenly assumed that Sith being a muslim would know that for him to say 'for god's sake' was blasphemy especially as he is so well read on the subject. Perhaps Keyplus will take him to one side and explain a few things. I can't be ar$ed.

To shift the bones interred here...'

Blasphemy?

jom, there are a lot worse things. i say one think and you question me? at least i have a religion. i said it once and now youre going on about it. This is what normally happens to muslims and every other religion, they say something ONCE and than atheists question that because they have got nothing better to do. seriously.

i have answered that naomi, in the quran it states that humans are gods highest creation and are better than everything else, such as animals. so therefore we would be better than aliens.

[bibblebub]

you can always rely on religion for anthropocentric myopia

[oldbillbuck]

Typical - Shove head firmly in the sand and quote the quran (how many different spellings are there?)

[naomi24]

Sith, //in the quran it states that humans are gods highest creation and are better than everything else, such as animals. so therefore we would be better than aliens. //

Ah, I see. Silly me! It’s pure logic! It's in the Koran so it must be true. Just one thing puzzles me though, and I can’t find the answer in your book. You say you believe that aliens visit earth, but that they are inferior to us in every way, so how come they have the technology to get here when man has not yet managed to travel beyond earth's own moon? Seems rather clever to me.

Sith, when you set yourself up as morally and spiritually superior to all those who are not muslims you must expect to be criticised when you fall short of your own standards. If you think that becoming a muslim automatically makes you a better person then you need to see yourself as others do.

[jomifl]

Sandy..You are being silly.... Again.

naomi, read back over my posts. i did not say i believe in UFOS. here you go, this is what i said earlier:

there you go. also of course i would believe in the quran, i am a muslim, im not going to believe in the hindu book, sikhism books etc am i? its like you do not believe in them, i do. Just because you do not, doesnt make you the better person by any means, nor does it make me. (i have no clue what jom is on about, probably just babbling on as usual :) )

[naomi24]

Sith, so you believe in aliens but not in UFOs, right? I’ve read back over your posts, as you suggested, and I came across this.

//im saying even if some [alien abductees] did lie, at least half are going to be telling the truth, not all of them can be lying.//

There you state very clearly that you think some people are telling the truth when they claim to have been abducted by aliens - so if you don't believe in UFOs, how do you assume those aliens got here?

As for believing in the Koran, this is a book that, among other things, tells us the stars were made as missiles against demons, that the mountains were created as pegs to hold the earth down, that the sun orbits the earth and sets in a puddle, that people were turned into monkeys and pigs, and that when Jesus blew upon clay birds they came to life. And you believe all that? Really?

[jomifl]

Sith, I can do shorter sentences if it will help your understanding of my babble.

[sith123]

...and atheism tells us the world happened "by itself"?. how is that possible? Because if there was nothing in the universe before hand than what caused it? an explosion cannot happen by itself.

yes, i do not believe in UFOs. however that does not mean that some people havent seen aliens etc. who am i to judge? who are you to judge? there might be UFOs. it says in the quran that aliens exist, it neither approves or disproves of UFOs. I mean, if we can make planes and spaceships maybe they can. they wouldnt have to be more advanced than us to do so as we already can.

jom, youve finally admitted you talk babble? ok.

[oldbillbuck]

Yes - and in umpteen thousand years travelling we could reach Alpha Centauri, I think that to visit us they would need to be just a bit more advanced than we are.

[naomi24]

Sith, and speaking of babble, you’re on the not-so-merry-go-round again.

[jomifl]

Sith, Do you want to persue this line of argument further, or would you like to leave it whilst you think you are ahead?

[sith123]

what do you mean "while i think im ahead"? i am not attempting to be ahead, i am just answering your question using my views like you do to me. if you stop contributing, i will too, if you continue asking me things than i will continue answering. if you stop, ill stop. fair game.
