I think JediMaster12 was referring to things in the Bible such as 'Love your neighbor as yourself' and not the oft-quoted-by-atheists 'marry your rapist!' That was my intention. All I am trying to say is that atheists are people like you and me and t...  [Read More]

Thread split from "Your Views on Atheism". Carry on all Theism/Atheism discussions here. Thanks, Jae Atheism is the belief that there is no God or gods. More often they are characterized as being persons of science, that they'd rather have...  [Read More]

Being a woman, I am in favor of having the first woman be president. It was a landmark when one decided to run for VP way back in the 90's I believe. It would be an even bigger landmark if one makes it to the presidency. Yes competency is a desired t...  [Read More]

Well I would have accomplished something if I didn't cheat. With cheating, I accompished slightly more. Big deal. Besides tests don't say anything about your actual knowledge. Most students forget the stuff right after the test. And moral reasons...I...  [Read More]

As someone who is almost through with the university system, one quarter away from getting my BA, I can say that it is a long and difficult road and the temptations to cheat are great. In high school, being with the same group of kids it made it easy...  [Read More]

If it is a moral decision based on your faith, you can show what part of that faith lead to that conclusion. If your faith does not have such a link than you are making a personal decision outside of the realm of faith. Looking at it from an anthropo...  [Read More]

SS, the definition of faith is believing in something of which you have no proof. I going out on a limb and saying that everyone has some form of faith. Whether you believe you can pass the next test or make it up the steps of Lincoln Memorial in a j...  [Read More]

But isn't belief something to hate? I mean, to believe in one thing means you can quite easily believe in something else. If you just believe in Evoultionary Theory (based on your observations), isn't it just as fine to believe in the Creationist the...  [Read More]

How can "emprical" evidence automatically justify itself? So, I see data, and then that data is correct, because it's data? That's just sounds like a circular argument, similar to: God exist because my Holy Book, written by God, says so. T...  [Read More]

Greea watched her pupil thoughtfully. He was strong in the Force and he was learning control. She sensed the exchange of words between Komad and Alkйa and was disturbed at the emotions torrenting between them. She brushed this aside to watch her pup...  [Read More]

You doubt that I trust you? Alkйa queried. She felt that there was a rift between her and Komad but she couldn't place it. She didn't consider that the possiblility could have been her frequent conversings with Tyrannus, if that was his real name. S...  [Read More]
