Some people have no problem accepting faith as faith even though they are sane/logical people. People like something to believe in, I just prefer reality.
Back to the subject of laying pipe...
Spoiler is possibly NSFW
Politics, religion, dope, and sex...
Yep, we've about covered it all in this thread, lol
This thread is so full of fail...at least Muddygut was making a few logical points.
By the way, it was a republican trick to try and force a decision on this pipeline without a review. Obama had to reject it, and it was the right decision. I can see the right wing nutcases are flipping out, so I am also leaving this thread before it becomes full of hate. But, the rejection was a victory and I am celebrating it.
Also, God exists, Jesus is a liberal and a hippy, and the republican party over the last forty years has transformed from something decent and worthwhile into a group that only caters to the wealthy and corporate interests, and manipulates misguided conservative Christians.
Bam!
So I'm part of a cult....interesting
I have always wondered why Atheists feel the need to put down, bash and insult something they don't understand.It seems you need to go out of your way, even in a political thread, to make yourself feel better.It's too bad Atheists can't accept that some people are different than them...and leave it the fuck there.
dammit...I should add that I like every member of this forum, religious views notwithstanding
yes I know, I shouldn't be so militant against people who insult Your name...sorry
yeah, god forbid zero as to make a choice on something! the *only* reason is political, and its bullshit. he's got two groups of people who donate all of their money to democrats, and making any choice will piss off one of them and lessen the number of donations - in a voting year! why are they telling the canadians "dont worry we'll get this done after the election." its bullshit, this guy cant make a right call and stand by it, and its the *very* fcuking reason that he cannot run on his record, because it is absolutely piss poor and full of halfassed political decisions, not to mention outright attempts to undermine the constitution!
yeah it may have been on purpose to force a vote on it, but c'mon, you're saying that like this is the first time its ever been tried in politics!
its baffling how some people form opinions based on a small subset of facts and willfully disregard tons of others.
I love you Hal, Im just pointing out to Muddy when he calls anothers religion a cult, its the pot calling the kettle black. Since by definition a religion is a cult. So really if you believe in some higher power, I don't see how you can even comment on someone elses beliefs because you think its crazy.
You're splitting hairs here and trying to make some point with me that hasn't produced a great revelation...
Like it or not, Mr radical atheist... The majority of this country believes in Christianity... Not Mormonism.. Even though by definition all religions are cults... One of them is main stream and accepted as normal... And the other (Mormonism) isn't.. It's just the way it is...
How can you "believe" while discrediting everyone elses beliefs? Thats all I'm saying. Because im radical
