    subject.

    I believe the son of God, a man named Jesus, came to this earth to save us all from ourselves. All we have to do
    is believe in him to have everlasting life. In a few short weeks, we will be mourning the death of our saviour.

    It can be proven there was a Jesus. Though the spoken words from him cannot be.
    I agree, to an extent...once someone has proven they've closed their minds to evidence, or declares their belief in something regardless of any past or future evidence, further discussions aren't likely to change anything. Personally, I'd rather know what my friends believe regardless of what it is, so I can better determine who they are and whether they're someone I want to spend more time around.

    I don't think it's that funny, when you think it could possibly be true... Only ones duped, is the ones believing giants never existed ...

    theres like 20 websites carrying that story, and today is the age of deception, so there you have it... I believe the Bible, that won't change. I guess the New York Times and the smithsonian are in to jokes right ? ...
    Certainly not possible that the Smithsonian investigated, found no evidence, and con men disposed of remains....nossir, must be a conspiracy. Nevermind that the NSA can't cover things up without someone blowing a whistle; clearly Smithsonian employees are more dedicated to their mission

      There's the problem. Most non believers could care less what people believe or don't believe about the afterlife. It's when religion infects school or starts to dictate foreign police - that it becomes an issue.

It doesn't necessarily mean it's wrong but the guy has been proven time and time and time again. The source is important.

        You made a statement (the one quoted in the previous post) that your mother sees visions all the time and can tell others things that are personal. Beyond the obvious that there is no scientific explanation that would lend your anecdotal story any credence, there has never been a documented case in this day and age that demonstrates ANYONE could have such insight or powers. It's just not reality. You can argue this until you are blue in the face but if someone could consistently do this, as you say, it would be studied, documented and well known. I'm sorry but this says something about your thought process and to me it clarifies so of your other statements.

          Right on.
          And if so, his mother should hurry to collect her 1.000.000$ from James Randi. Should be easy.

            Agreed. With both rkelly and your post. I would go one step further and say: Don't tell me about your deity that I don't care for and believe in - and I'll never ever make fun of your personal believes. As long as you don't try to make it political and as long as you don't simply ignore the fact, that the earth is not only a few k years old, I have no reason to care about your personal believes and as far as I am concerned you can pray to the wholy spaghetti monster, god or whatever you want all day long. Same thing goes for the LGBT people etc: I simply don't care what you do as long as it doesn't have an effect on me and my life.

              I've cited it before - but this is a great example


              It may seem absolutely nutty - but as someone not affected by it, it's about as worrisome as someone who doesn't want to live on the 13th floor of a building.

              If however, the belief started to permeate here, and suddenly we had people inspecting our homes to make sure we kept windows open with fans. Or that kids were told early on in school that they'll die if they sleep with a fan on. Yeah, I might feel the need to chime in.

              That's how religion should be...silly but personal.

                  Her being an RN doesn't change anything I said, sorry. Just my opinions.

                  I hope she is my RN one day, at least as I'm dying, I'd have some one interesting to talk to.

                          But in the end, we're ALOT more alike than not. Even atheists and protestants.

                                        I don't mind opinions, but for a few of you not taking what I say as reliable information with my own personal experiences, it's just another stepping stone of denial... I have no reason to lie to you, so one can say " we see things differently " but truth and experience has no color or agenda.... It just is what it is,

                                          Was watching celebrity ghost stories last night. Rue McClanahan (golden girls fame) was on telling her story.

                                          She was very close to a friend that died. They used to always goof off since they were kids. Before her friends
                                          passing, they agreed he would contact her through electricity. Neither believed in the afterlife and if he could,
                                          contact her after.

                                          He died a day later in his mothers home. Rue stayed over. When she went in the kitchen with his mother, all
                                          nine recessed lights flickered and turned off at the same time. Later trying to e-mail a friend, her computer
                                          acted up, the same with the phone.

                                          Later that night, she was standing in front of the fire place. Had a feeling she was being watched, turned around
                                          and her friend was sitting in a chair, with his devilish grin on saying, it's no big deal. She took it as dying is no big deal. She believes in the afterlife now. (She has since passed on also)

                                          Did she manifest that all that on her own or could it happen? I heard it's very easy for spirits to manipulate electricity.

I have no reason to lie to you, so one can say " we see things differently " but truth and experience has no color or agenda.... It just is what it is,
                                            Get over yourself buddy. You don't get to make any claim you want and then expect us to accept it as face value. Honestly, what you claimed about your mother is the farthest thing from reliable information I've read in this thread and that says alot because I disagree with pretty much everything you've said but that one took the cake.

                                            And now you want me to accept it as "reliable information" because it's your personal experience? Personal experiences aren't exempt from scrutiny by any means.

                                            And then to think because I'm calling shenanigans on your extravagant story, you think I'M in denial? You might wanna check out the man in the mirror

                                            I don't think you are lying brain, I think you simply see things differently (than I). I think you're entire perspective of life and the world is viewed through religious lens, so in your mind, it's not absurd for a person to be able to have visions, or a sixth sense, because that was common in the bible. But the thing about the bible and the characters in it and all their extravagant stories is that they didn't have the technology we do now. They hadn't gone through the scientific revolution, so it was easier to get away with bullshit claims back then.

                                              She was very close to a friend that died. They used to always goof off since they were kids. Before her friends
                                              passing, they agreed he would contact her through electricity. Neither believed in the afterlife and if he could,
                                              contact her after.

                                              He died a day later in his mothers home. Rue stayed over. When she went in the kitchen with his mother, all
                                              nine recessed lights flickered and turned off at the same time. Later trying to e-mail a friend, her computer
                                              acted up, the same with the phone.

                                              Later that night, she was standing in front of the fire place. Had a feeling she was being watched, turned around
                                              and her friend was sitting in a chair, with his devilish grin on saying, it's no big deal. She took it as dying is no big deal. She believes in the afterlife now. (She has since passed on also)

                                              Did she manifest that all that on her own or could it happen? I heard it's very easy for spirits to manipulate electricity.
                                              Interesting. I wouldn't have expected a post like this from you. Which makes me wonder if you're being serious.

                                              But I'll indulge you briefly before I get in the shower.

                                              But before I do, please clarify one statement for me

                                              What the fukk do you mean "I heard it's very easy for spirits to manipulate electricity."

                                              Where did you hear this?

                                                Oh, I'm big into this kind of shit. I have a few books (written by psychics) on the subject of the afterlife, which is
                                                where I read about the manipulation of electricity by spirits. Have a few stories of my own too.

                                                I like to go above and beyond on the religious subject. Some go negative, deny, need proof and all that. I go the
                                                other way. Positive, look into the other realm of possibility. (as you've noticed in my political ramblings)

                                                  I know murders, rape, car crashes and the like are horrendous, but they are actually how the people wanted to die.

                                                    there plenty of evidence outside of my testimony... the real Mt. Sinai exists, the Red Sea crossing with wheels from the 8th dynasty of Egypt found, all types of stuff... Please, tell me how you perceive this, and please you debunkers, debunk this...



                                                    Why tell me to get over myself, I'm a humble man. I've been over myself for years now, why I'm able to sit down and converse with you guys, because I've had different experiences then you doesn't make me better or worse, just conscience of the Holy Spirit, something I want all of you to have...

                                                      Hebrews 11:1. By Faith....,

                                                      1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2For by it the elders obtained a good report.3Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.


                                                      4By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh. 5By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 6But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. 7By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.



                                                      8By faith Abraham, when he was called to go out into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. 9By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise: 10For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God. 11Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised. 12Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as the sand which is by the sea shore innumerable.

                                                      13These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. 14For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. 15And truly, if they had been mindful of that country from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. 16But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for he hath prepared for them a city.



                                                      17By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son, 18Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: 19Accounting that God was able to raise him up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure.20By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. 21By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff. 22By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones.


                                                      23By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. 24By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; 25Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; 26Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. 27By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. 28Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. 29By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.



                                                      30By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.

                                                                They do have coral on them, and nothing to say about mt. Sinai funny guy... Again, when people laugh I smell weakness, so either explain it away or do what your good at and chuckle.

                                                                    The guy who believes in the ark...and virgin birth...and life in a whale (or big fish)....you'll take the word of a disproved former nurse vs. the scientific community...but you want your fantasies disproved.

                                                                    You post fake quotes from celebrities....proven to be fake.....post articles from satire sites...plagiarize the words of
                                                                    others...don't even research someone enough you think they were governor.

                                                                    I don't think you should be locked up. But it's disheartening that you have kids and will pass along your cult-like beliefs to a new generation.

                                                                    If I prayed and the vision was explicit that you were destined to going back to selling coke, and that your mom was actually the anti-christ. Would it be up to me to prove it....or you to disprove it?
