@bassbass99able If Atheism is a religion then, not collecting stamps is a hobby...

This is the most beautiful classical music I ever heard.

l'homme cherche a s'elever c'est dans sa nature c'est la façon qu'il choisi qui n'est pas bonne et Dieu n'y est pour rien si il se trompe, mais il a ete dit heureux ceux qui sont conscient de leur faim spirituelle , souvent traduit par heureu et de sa creation x les simples en esprit ce qui ne veux plus rien dire, la spiritualité est une quête constante dans l'amour du createur et de sa creation qui fut faite a son image. C'est un don mais qu'en faisons -nous?

@ctweebee Human beings, as we are a part of the fabulous continuous world wide symphony of nature and all of its manifestations, are capable of creating great beauty. My whole point is that this is not the work of a God or any God... there is far too much random destruction, empty space and simply contradictory events taking place to ever sincerely believe there is a God. I can no more prove this to you than prove that there isn't a toaster floating in space 6 million light years away.

@ctweebee I'm anti-theist aswell as against the harm that organised religion causes. If you're willing to pin everything unexplainable on a God that has created everything, then in my eyes you're letting your species down.

[ctweebee]

@SethHesio Now you're an idiot. You're bringing religion into it. You're not anti God but anti theology. Saying someone is arrogant and stupid for believing in God is not the same as attacking their religion. You're against a religious organizations preaching and dictating to you. Faure's musical education was at the School of Classical and Religious Music and wouldn't exist otherwise. My only complaint is it's too short.

[SethHesio]

@ctweebee Well, your argument would hold water if having very fixed belief about a deity was harmless. A great deal of the worlds problems stem from people using their personal belief as a perfect excuse to harm others. I personally think as a species we are hopefull moving away from superstition and the nonsense of religion, while still realising some of the positive messages that are in it. Be kind to eachother is great. Kill someone for being of a different sexual persuasion is not. Right?

[ctweebee]

@SethHesio But you do dream and I'm not stupid. People who believe in God are not ignorant or arrogant.They may act ignorant and arrogant and you should pray for them. But believing one is the center of everything is more a personality disorder. Man is not perfect and suffers from a range of delusions about God and self and the relationship thereof. When one has the proper perspective arrogant and ignorant people no longer bother them. Your words show you've got it. I'm almost there!

[SethHesio]

@ctweebee I dream, I feel beauty, feel the majesty of things I can't understand and stand in awe at the wonderful unimaginable beauty of nature and the universe and the infinite amount of things we are yet to discover. I have never been arrogant or stupid enough to suppose that a God made me and I was at the center of it.

[ctweebee]

@SethHesio You don't dream. I can tell.
