I find the Star Wars Trilogy to be far more interesting and meaningful than the bible.

Just saying.

@HuckMeHard I LOLDED in my pants!

"The reason driven life " by Price and " WIBA " by Loftus are excellent books. Even if you didn't accept their conclusions they would make you think of many different aspects. They also help to get into the habit of asking for evidence and using different methods of thought rather than just trying to guess " Is this bit Real or Fiction ". A loving, good God would take everyone to heaven, but then a good God would prevent serious crime. Are the angels to busy singing to help down here?

I cannot get passed that cowboy hat.

[kdheithaus]

you hear an awful lot about conversion - there must always be a conversion, it seems - the one constant seems to be change...

[Desophistic]

I disagree with your definition of Atheism and Agnosticism. Gnosticism relates to what is known or unknowable while Theism relates to belief. They are not mutually exclusive. A-theism is merely a response position to a theistic belief and literally means not a theist, so rejecting the claim: god(s) exists for whatever reason (e.g.: lack of evidence) makes you an Atheist, by default, regardless of having made or not made a claim to know if it is true or not.

i wrote that about a year ago. I wasn't very clear. I agree with what you write. There is the practical view and the absolute view. We cannot say absolutely. No disagreement.
