The Origin Of Information.

[Theland]

I believe God is the Author of the Information necessary to kickstart our universe, drive abiogenesis and construct DNA.

If you have any idea different to mine, what is it?

[ChillDoubt]

Very much looking forward to your justification......

[Theland]

Gervais is in my opinion, not funny, and a thoughtless idiot. Or rather a moron.

[ChillDoubt]

......but you can’t deny his explanation of ‘god’ and how he works in mysterious ways, can you?
Why does he do that? Why does he inflict pain, misery, death and destruction on humans, from babes to octogenarians?
Why does he give bone cancer, brain tumours and blindness to children? Why does he insert that into the DNA you allege he makes?
What a vile, vindictive and wicked creature.

[Theland]

Chilldoubt - We live in a sinful imperfect world, and that is not what was designed for us.
We are a fallen race.
We perpetuate evil ourselves.
How many babies are murdered in the womb every year because their life is, "inconvenient?"
We are an evil selfish race, any wonder we perpetuate evil? Hunger, poverty, war, selfishness?
We live in a filthy world we have created.
We need God to sort out the mess.

[Theland]

Atheists have never ever been able to come even close to giving at least a theory on the origin of information.
Evolution, that unproven nonsense, has nothing to say about it.

[mibn2cweus]

The world you portray is a direct reflection of the world as you perceive it, the inevitable consequence of the refusal to acknowledge responsibility for what you along with those who share your beliefs and outlook have made of it.

[Old_Geezer]

The information itself has a better claim to being labelled "God" than assuming that a God created it. Seems an unnecessary extra step.

//We need God to sort out the mess. //

Since he hasn't been heard from (allegedly) for at least 2000 years he's certainly taking his time. When are you expecting him to re(?)-emerge?

I think you're trying to convince yourself, Theland.

"Atheists have never ever been able to come even close to giving at least a theory on the origin of information.
Evolution, that unproven nonsense, has nothing to say about it."

Because 'we' accept it's beyond human comprehension.

Do you think that religion is suppose to keep humans living in harmony? It'd only work if we were all the same religion.

[spathiphyllum]

Theland have you ever took a moment to think..

what if god *** up? And he knows he did, so he's now left us to our own devices because we're not worth it

[spathiphyllum]

Like a selfish child who gets a new toy and abandons his old ones

[Hazi-Hammenuhoth]

It is excellent that Chilldoubt displays a photo of the tomb of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey, which not only has the words "FOR GOD" inscribed in gold capital letters, but is surrounded by the words of Holy Scripture:(top) THE LORD KNOWETH THEM THAT ARE HIS,
(GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS
UNKNOWN AND YET WELL KNOWN,
DYING AND BEHOLD WE LIVE,
IN CHRIST SHALL ALL BE MADE ALIVE.
Thankyou for portraying this excellent testament to God and these beautiful words from the Bible, Chilldoubt.

//We are an evil selfish race, any wonder we perpetuate evil? Hunger, poverty, war, selfishness?//

Theres also the other side of the coin. Theres those that strive to make the world a better place. Those that give their time to various charities, those that seek to save the enviroment, those that camaign against homelessness etc. Not every member of the human race is totally selfish and not every member is totally altruistic. Its a mixed bag. To say that the entire human race is selfish is garbage and shows that you are looking at life through the eyes of a religionist who sees 'the devil' everywhere he looks.
Theres much good in life and much good in people.

// I believe God is the Author of the Information necessary to kickstart....//

excellent idea - well done - what was your advice to me? - write it on a bog wall.....

[Peter Pedant]

// And he knows he did, so he's now left us to our own devices because we're not worth it//

well this is a very old testament view
and the idea of Christ is that he gave man a second chance
is the um new convenant view

just saying - from someone who doesnt believe evolution is a load of old nonsense

[ChillDoubt]

LOL, nice try Hazi.......sad, but nice.
I’m sure you obviously realised that as an atheist I don’t really care for the words about god etc(strangely, neither did 99% of my former comrades) but I do appreciate the sentiment and symbolism of the Unknown Warrir but you’d probably already worked that out for yourself.
Never had you down as a god botherer but each to their own.

[nailit]

//well this is a very old testament view
and the idea of Christ is that he gave man a second chance

Yeah, because despite God saying that
''For I am the Lord, I change not'' (Malachi 3:6)
He, errr, somehow decided to change in the New Testament!

[nailit]

//Never had you down as a god botherer but each to their own//
Theres a few of them about Chill, not all evangelical, but they are about....

[Peter Pedant]

// He, errr, somehow decided to change in the New Testament! //
yeah right on
hubba hubba baby - that is why it is called the New Testament matching the New Covenant ( geddit??)
instead of
Old Testament Part deux
or More of the Same Testament (suitable for use over the whole of the Roman Empire)[latest translation]
or Iggy piggy woo goes to market - - or

[Peter Pedant]

99% of your comrades didnt bother god
yeah Chilldo
but apparently the SAS chapel is packed with penitents saying Lardy Dah or Holy Mary Mudder of God .... and crawling around on their knees and breathing in the incense
No I havent been there
