      The problem is, people who stop believing in god, start believing everything. --------- What has the bible to do with god? As much as "ferrari news" has to do with my car.

          Suggestion: The bible’s claim of it’s relation to a god is either false, or some or all of its accounts of god are false. Argument in favor of the above suggestion: Take the concept of revenge and forgiveness. These are both related as a result of a common source (reaction to being apparently violated). However it is not hard to see that forgiveness is not a modification of revenge, but an absolute correction (depending on wither you’re a Christian and consequently prefer forgiveness). If this is the case, then the claim that god is absolutely perfect has to be false. From this result one can only come to a conclusion of the above suggestion.

                  I would tend to disagree... people that are non-believers are generally more skeptical than those of faith. It's when people become complete drones (i.e. Jack Chick-ites) that you have to worry about them falling for any sort of scam imaginable. -jfaulken When sushi is outlawed only outlaws will have sushi.

                            To answer the simple question, no I don't believe in god/God and haven't for most of my life. My oldest friend is Catholic, his wife became an Anglican Priest a few years ago - divorce is looming after 18 years of happy marriage mainly on religous issues , which only reinforces my own belief that all religion is devisive.:( Believe what you want, just don't force it down others throats and maybe we will all get on a bit better in the world!:rose: JohnJ http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk

                                        The problem is, people who stop believing in god, start believing everything. I don't understand how you came to that conclusion. What I really thought you were going to write was "The problem is, people who stop believing in god, stop believing everything." i.e. Atheists are more skeptical of claims which don't have tangible, solid proof. (Either way, I disagree with both statements.)

                                          Suggestion: The bible’s claim of it’s relation to a god is either false, or some or all of its accounts of god are false. Argument in favor of the above suggestion: Take the concept of revenge and forgiveness. These are both related as a result of a common source (reaction to being apparently violated). However it is not hard to see that forgiveness is not a modification of revenge, but an absolute correction (depending on wither you’re a Christian and consequently prefer forgiveness). If this is the case, then the claim that god is absolutely perfect has to be false. From this result one can only come to a conclusion of the above suggestion.

Actually, I'd say either everything it says is true, or it must all be false. Edd wrote: If this is the case, then the claim that god is absolutely perfect has to be false. YOu see, you're using convoluted logic to present your case. My case is simple. The Bible says there is a God who answers in specific ways. As I have tested this, and He DID answer, there is a God. No amount of complex argument can stop me from believing in someone I have met. Christian I am completely intolerant of stupidity. Stupidity is, of course, anything that doesn't conform to my way of thinking. - Jamie Hale - 29/05/2002
