Right on time.

Y’know, it’s not like I have a burning desire to go to Heaven, but I’d at least like it if we had a period of time that couldn’t be counted in hours where the Catholic Church said “Yeah, we know that everyone has different beliefs, you just aren’t getting our freebie and have to work for it.”

Having to wear Church clothes each Sunday. The horror.

Christianity isn’t a religion,

Oh that’s just precious.

it’s a relationship with God.

Then what about Islam?

Also, it’s not hard being Christian

It’s not hard calling yourself a Christian, no.

and don’t be a hyprocrite saying that christianity is the easy way out.

Why would it be hyppocritical? And yes, saying “God did it” to every question is the easy way out, how could it not be?

Because most people take the easy way out by not following jesus.

I really hope you’re missing my point on purpose.

Why am I even bothering anymore, you’re just being that stereotypical Christian (well to be fair, it can apply to any religion) who keeps talking themselves into a circle, an illiterate and nonsensical circle even.

Did I say before that I think you’re just trying to fuck with us all, because I really don’t want to believe that there are people just like you in the world.

I’m confused, is this in response to Karma’s last post on this thread, or what? Because if it is, you’re not disproving that you don’t want to answer the question Vika asked.

Thomas Jefferson once warned, “If a nation expects to be ignorant and free in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be.”

He said a lot of things, like occasional revolutions being good, or that the constitution should be revised periodically.

To heed Jefferson’s warning, we need to understand what has happened to the U.S. Bill of Rights.

Yeah, we’re suppressing the hell out of the first amendment, what’s up with that?

We need to realize how fragile freedom really is. From the First Amendment’s protection of free speech, to the Fourth Amendment’s protection of our privacy, to the Tenth Amendment’s mandate that the U.S. government be restricted to powers listed in the U.S. Constitution, we need to be willing to fight for these freedoms.

Okay, have you been drinking coffee in bed again? You’re getting yourself all worked up.

If you think Americans have all become sheep like the liberals on this forum, think again.

He is one of the sheep that follow along with the ideals of socialism.

Ugh.

Karma acts like he is so knowledgeable on everything, but he isn’t.

Repetition doesn’t beget validity. At least not with this.

In my book, he is a traitor to our country, him and his idol in the whitehouse.

Dude, read what you’re writing.

Cute.

I don’t pay much heed to Vika as she is quite uniformed on this subject,

I didn’t know she had a uniform.

Anyways, you keep saying everyone else doesn’t know their shit but you’ve never actually follow up on it, and most of the times you try to call Vika out for being wrong, she turns it around on you.

and too hard headed to learn anything.

So are you saying this because you know that you too are hard-headed and thus you calling them hard-headed adds emphasis, or is it the more obvious and discouraging reason that you’re completely oblivious to how your behavior looks to others?

I did read what I wrote and I meant what I said.

Great, you are that old man across the street ranting about the sky falling because a cloud changed shape.

Karma is like the antichrist, pushing anything to ruin our country.

Ugh.

That’s the easy way out. Also, you’re missing his point.

You’re smart and i know you’re trying to figure this out and i know you feel like you’re onto something here, and you are, but you’re missing God entirely.

Well, if by “missing God” you mean he isn’t trying to look for a reason to believe in one of the more popular religions, then yes.

Question after question, the real thing you should be studying about humans is why we ask so many questions?

Because we’re curious. Next question.

The truth so far, whether it be false or not, is straight forward.

The truth resists simplicity.
-John Green

The bible was made to fill in every single gap and question, and the bible fills in every single gap and question It doesn’t matter how much you know about science or not..because God didn’t work with the memory or critical thinking of others. He worked with their hearts.

Another think that bugs me about some religious people: taking the easy way out even though we really shouldn’t at this point.

Also, how hard it is for you to make clear points? You’ve contradicted yourself for almost every post.

I think she just did.

Those things were already figured out before you were born.

Because…

You cannot create afterlife,

Unlock the secrets of human consciousness, create matrix, obtain afterlife.

and you cannot play God like that.

Considering we’ve cloned sheep and made goat that squirt out spider silk, I think we have.

This isn’t my way. Being on the computer isn’t the way i’m going.

What is you way, then?

My way in life, is my way in life.

Well that’s just lovely.

If i were to sum up one point out of all of this it would be that saying everyone is right and there are 1000 ways to heaven is completely wrong and doesn’t make any sense.

And yet again we see why proof-reading is actually important. I really can’t tell what you’re trying to say here.

I would try to expand on that more but i feel like being a scientist, politician, engineer, world changer, and/or a conservative is more important.

Why not a liberal? Wait, why are you here again?

It’s not.

What isn’t, the thing you just (mistakenly, I guess) said was important?

Just do what you do in the name of Jesus, because you’re supposed to take your faith where ever you may be.

Heil Jesus and do fuck all. No thanks.

There is a very few amount of things in this world that will fulfill you to this end.

Okay, is English a second language to you, because that would clear up a lot.

Also, I beg to differ.

I said christianity and an anti-justice clan can work hand in hand, but you don’t see that God’s works can do miracles.

Like kill everyone on the planet, or put Jesus’s face of a piece of toast.

You just think that without God, you can do what you want to make this world a better place.

I’m pretty sure she’s saying that, under what you’ve said, believing in God means you can and should do fuck all.

You try releasing 27 million underaged girls from sex slavery then come back and tell me how much of the world you’ve changed.

Oh, this is just hilarious. You’re actually acting like the Bible is true to the letter.

Okay then, yeah, God has done a lot of shit to change the world, but then he’s also a massive prick because of what he’s done.

When i said humanity was screwed up, i said it because we reject God and that’s why we are screwed up.

Yes, a perfectly perfect, omnipotent, omnibenevolent God created us and allowed us to fuck ourselves over.

I’m pretty sure when you’ve read the bible, you were skimming it, because mostly in the bible it talks about what God is doing right and why he sent his son to be the only way to get to heaven.

Nope, all of the parts of the Bible I’ve read came with questions and critical thinking about what I just read.

I’m admitting to preaching because preaching is usually what happens when you stand up in front of a crowd and actually speak the words of God.

So you’re admitting to feeding us BS that was never meant to convince us.

Also, i was just responding to other people, so i’m really just being informative about what i’m saying.

… What?

Do you not know what the word hypocrite means?

I would assume so.

You should have no way of calling God a saddistic, screwed up freak as the worst of humanity.

Considering the shit he’s pulled in the Bible, it’s not that hard.

If anything, humanity is what is so screwed up.

Coming from the person saying humanity was created by a perfect being, everybody.

You tell me that humanity is good enough to clean up it’s own mess, and then tell me what you have done to help humanity.

Well I’m pretty sure she’s a nurse, so…

You can’t talk about doing something then not do anything.

I find this hilarious that you’re still assuming so much. I mean, sure, talking about religion makes one used to assuming, but it’s a nasty habit.

So you admit to preaching, then.

So it’s Yahweh or the highway, then.

Yet another thing I dislike about Christianity.

Preachy, unconvincing shit I’ve heard before.

Hate to say it, but I’m starting to think you’re just fucking with us.

Originally posted by XxsamuroxX:

I’m telling you, Jesus’ way is better because you’re not trapped anymore.

Funny, because I think that it’s more trapping to believe in a religion. It’s almost like people have different opinions.

Being a slave in the bible just means that you belong to God, and that’s a good thing.

Concurring with what Lucas said aside, we’re not in the Bible.

Hypocrite.

Free will’s purpose wasn’t to change the world.

Yeah, it was meant to conflict with the equally popularly held belief in a divine plan, thus pointing out a flaw in the flawless Bible.

How is that preaching!

How is it not?

I answered your question.

No you didn’t.

You asked me what righteousness was and i gave it to you. And how is that insulting to you.

For fuck’s sake, I didn’t ask the question, Ungeziefer did.

If it is insulting on so many levels of your belief of atheism, then at least explain why it is insulting. And if it is insulting because you are Christian, then my apologies but my response was response to someone who was atheist.

Then stop assuming, because I’m not an atheist or a Christian. Even if I was, though, it would still be insulting because it’s trying to promote the already too widespread belief that everyone must believe the same religion because our religion says it’s the right one.

Clearly you didn’t get the reference.

Me knowing or not knowing if it was a reference changes nothing.

and if you don’t understand it, then read a different bible that isn’t King James version.

Okay, I’ll get the original Hebrew version. It’ll be harder since I don’t actually know Hebrew, but at least it’s not the King James version, right?

Originally posted by XxsamuroxX:

The point of Christianity, God, and/or Jesus is not to change the world, and whatever is wrong with the world is out of your hands.

Yeah, fuck free will.

Originally posted by XxsamuroxX:

So it’s basically just more of the same preaching that will only convince the people who already believe it.

Christianity is something you grow in, and a lot of people haven’t found their seed yet.

Also, I find this insulting on so many levels.

Topic: Serious Discussion / alien life

Originally posted by XxsamuroxX:

I’m don’t know much about this topic, and correct me if i am wrong, but doesn’t space have different time zones?

Oh, this is delicious. No, space doesn’t have different time zones.

I mean, black holes bend space and time continuum. And i know we are ions away from discovering alien life, but even if we WERE to discover it, why would we alter their destiny?

What if their destiny is to be found by humanity, or if predetermination is just all BS and the future is in flux?

What they would think of us when we would intervene with their species would be far different or the same as to how we would react when alien life comes here.

Assuming they’re intelligent.

I would be afraid if alien life were to ever come to us, because then all of the atheists in the world would be atheists forever.

Oh dammit…

Okay, I don’t know if you know this, but atheism is the belief that a god (or a certain religion’s god) doesn’t exist. Aliens give fuck all to that.

Also, if aliens did visit us, atheists should be the least of your worries.

I don’t think we could control where they go or we go, and one thing for sure we should control how far our minds can go on this theory.

What theory? Actually, what are you talking about in general, you’re not very clear.

Just don’t listen to the history channel because the history channel is stupid now and everyone knows it.

At least we can agree with that.

But what we’re wanting here isn’t necessarily just alien life forms, what we’re wanting here is another species that we can interact with and communicate with.

Why do you know that’s what “we” really want?

Earth is alone,

As far as we can say with absolute certainty.

Because we all know that life forms such as bacteria, sea creatures, and definitely out there somewhere that were formed depending on the planet’s gas and oxygen level.

No, we really don’t. It’s getting more and more likely, yes, but we still haven’t found it yet.

But is there potential another species that walk on two legs and idolize their view on what created them.

Yes and no. There probably are other intelligent life forms, but they don’t have to be humanoid, nor do they have to have a religion. Hell, they could have gotten to the point where they did, but stopped believing it because they’ve learned enough about the world around them and they don’t need religion anymore.

Unless you’re gay, a woman, of another religion, of no religion, or don’t love him enough.

To translate that in more modern english, the narrow gate is the gate that leads to God, but the broad gate is the gate that leads not to God.

Really? I read it as virgins are better lays.

You need God to help you achieve this because it’s impossible to reach heaven on your own.

What if you don’t believe in heaven, or that you don’t need to believe in the Christian God to get there?

You need righteousness from the Lord, guidance, and constant reminders of what he wants you to do.

Funny thing, you never gave a reason why we have to do this other than because we have to. Which, by the way, is circular logic, and something you want to avoid.

He will only lead you to what’s right, because as humans, we tend to do what’s wrong.

Like create religions.

Just remember, the value is really, really high.

What value, the value of the pendant I snatched off my grandmothers dead body?

Karma, you see strong, deep merit only in the parts that suit you.

Much unlike you, obviously.

I see the merit in the entire document. It is the basis for our entire form of government.

And as seen in the American Revolution, sometimes the government needs an update.

The Bill of Rights are what give you the freedom to sound like a dufus.

And the freedom for you to sound like a prick for saying that.

Originally posted by jhco50:

They didn’t just decide it was a right.

They kinda did. To them, they had ideas about what is a right, and they were inspired by other governmental ideas of inalienable rights, but they were the ones to decide which rights were included and which weren’t.

It was/is established that all human beings have certain inalienable rights.

Unless you’re black or a woman.

What would be included in the Constitution was discussed thoroughly.

And therefore never needs to be discussed thoroughly ever again, as the “discussion quota” has already been met.

Originally posted by jhco50:

Vicka and Karma, yes they have printed a gun with plastic, but you are now misleading the others on the capability of both the product and the printers.

Since Vika’s proven much more often that she knows her shit, I’m going to be more inclined to believe her.

The printers you are suggesting (for metals) cost thousands of dollars, many thousands.

Did she say otherwise?

Of course they have printers that will print metal within reason, but they are nowhere developed to a point where they are common as most are still being developed and experimented with.

Again, vika said that this is new and still being developed, but still at a fast pace.

And they don’t use CAD drawing files to operate. They use a special file with special coding, but I overlook that mistake. A common person could never afford the 3D printers you describe. Just for your information.

Now I’m surious; where are you getting this?

Now, the guns that have been printed. To my knowledge, only two have been printed.

And they shall be the only two, right?

Of course this sent shivers through the anti-gun crowd and Washington moved to remove the files for making it from the internet.

And I can see why, but unfortunately for them the Internet has a nasty habit of never being able to get rid of anything.

They were too slow and I understand it was downloaded about a 100,000 times before they got it removed. Of course, this will present a problem in the future.

So wait, are you saying that it’s a scary thing for you to think about that the government tried to stop a problem (that you admitted will happen) from happening in the first place?

As this is perfected and the printers become more affordable, yes, you will see more and more of these weapons surface. As far as being able to smuggle then on airlines? Probably.

I’m getting mixed signals now, are you saying it’s a good thing or a bad thing that everyone could have a nearly undetectable firearm?
