Dawkins @ Liberty Univ owning Intelligent Design

If you were told that Liberty University taught that San Francisco was twenty-eight feet from New York you wouldn't believe it. So when Richard learns that Liberty University teaches its students something equally absurd, that dinosaurs are a few thousand years old, he offers some sound advice.

Creationists have the same amount of credibility as scientologists with only one minor difference... Chances are good aliens may be out there right now! The universe is IMMENSE; enough room for zillions of pieces of extra terrestrial real estate. At this time, God is confined to a 3 pound organ within the skull indefinitely.

As an atheist, if you have led a morally good life, then who cares about whether you believe in God or not. Assume God exists. When you die, is God going to punish you because you went to school, and learnt about science, and the world around us? The evidence is that there is no God, so God surely can't be holding our non belief in him to condemn us to everlasting pain and suffering. That is a very narcissistic, egotistical and cruel God. Where is the love and forgiveness the church go on about?

This almost sounds like the bishops and church leaders who tried to discredit scientific theories and discoveries of the past. Don't question our new authorities, they might get mad at us and tell us we are stupid. They will try to beat you into submission or better yet try to convince everyone else you are a quack. No evidence just assertions.

In a civilized society, freedom of speech overrides anyone's right to be offended. You're offended? Tough. Maybe you should look at why you're being offended. Only in countries that are controlled by Muslims is freedom of speech denied to citizens. North Americans and Europeans need to guard their freedoms from Islam and its leaders.

@SpencerBenedict2nd atheism and agnosticism both answer completely seperate questions and it is possible to be both, and most atheists are in fact agnostic as well. theres the question, does god exist? if you answer "i dont know" you are agnostic. to the question do you believe in god? you have to answer yes or no. and if you answer no, you are an atheist. most atheists do not believe in god but do acknowledge they dont really know if he exists or not.

@yosef59 " i am an agnostic atheist because i..."-yosef59

>Haven't i already informed you that one, even with reservations, can not be both agnostic and an atheist? Now go look up the definition of "AGNOSTIC", silly. Your are either one or the other, NOT BOTH, so make up your mind and stick with either label until you know better.

"... who knows?"-yosef59

>The more intelligently inclined of the human race created in Gods image, that's "who".

Rome's Council of Trent is the CRUX of it, dummy.

@SpencerBenedict2nd . i mean really? who gives a damn about the vatican counil's and what they decided in the 1500's? , the bible is myth. pure and simple.. religion is false. and a disease of the mind.. its all about power and $.. i am an agnostic atheist because i do not believe in the yahweh/jesus myth.. just a little study will tell you these are myths.. dead gods from long ago..but , i hold a small reserve, that there may be some god.., who knows?

[SpencerBenedict2nd]

@yosef59 Actually, your self proclaimed title that i was denouncing was "seeker of truth". It is in this venture that thus far, i see you have "failed miserably".

In your long list of recent titles you claim to be both "agnostic" and "atheist". This is contradictory. You can only be one or the other, not both.

Some advice in truth seeking the existence of God, and/or Bible 'validity' - Beware of the multitude of Jesuit 'Council of Trent' stumbling blocks strewn about everyones Path to Truth.

[yosef59]

@SpencerBenedict2nd i assume u mean i have failed because i am a secular humanist, but really i am a agnostic, secular humanist, fundamentalist, spiritualist, atheist... im still seeking.. i read all the conspiracy books long ago... but no one can claim to have all the truth.. so i search, and seek..for truth, meaning, and purpose.. do i believe in god? , i doubt one exist.. but i can't be sure... . peace my brother
