That sums up this entire discussion. I can't say God is certain. I can't say life exists outside of Earth. I don't know if there are parallel universes. I don't know what happens after you die. What I do know is that I respect the evolution of the mind, how influential has religion been to that? I don't know, but if it was very influential then it is what it is. What I do know is that I live my life with my personal expectations of being a good person. How this was developed in my mind? I don't know. My dad always told me, "the fear of God is needed to do good". Not sure how much he believed that himself, but even as a Catholic kid growing up I didn't believe that. I actually don't even like screwing people over for a dollar, I basically feel bad about it no matter how much the money is. As a driver, sometimes if I miss an exit, instead of cutting somebody to get to the exit I rather just get off the next exit/street. That's just how I am. I know this got pretty off topic, but basically "I don't know shit"

But I also believe it's fuckin' korny that all the ones who think it's illogical for there to be a creator of space (which man will prolly never be able to understand) can believe in a possibly of other life forms. I understand ya'll gotta defend yourselves, but I know, you know, how ironic it sounds. Especially coming with an 'anythang's possible' mentality, it's a lil contradictory, wouldn't you agree? Well, I know you won't, but it is. It is.
My belief in a creator is not unreasonable. You can throw Jesus, Heaven and Hell in it all you want to make it seem stupid. But it is not. Listen to ya'll men! You are sayin' anythang is possible out there. How korny is that? I say that same idea in other threads and I'M unreasonable? We all agree that we are a fuckin' orange goldfish in The Pacific Ocean, and that goldfish has no fuckin' idea there's an Atlantic Ocean too... that shit just shows us what we are. Just that thought on space makes you wonder, well evidently not Atheists cuz they take a few scientific observations ( that are liable to change at any moment ) and base a firm fact on them to laugh at others.. but it should make you wonder about alot more than Jesus. That maybe there is somethang after death, I mean other life forms may not even die.. I mean I don't know.. there's so much it makes your head spin.
The more advanced the human race becomes to report findings on space, to me, just shows us how the comprehension of God will never be understood by man. Ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever. Cuz in a discussion like this, on an infinite space, and you all STILL can conclude a belief, all this is mere coincidence, such a arrogant and close minded idea (as Ikke as said in this same thread, ha) I truly feel bad.
And I would like to know how I'm, or Christians, or Muslims reject facts? Have ya'll ever read the Catechism from the Catholic Church? Prolly has to be the most realistic pieces of material a 'rational' person could read, with a belief in God. And the Quran is the most scientific Holy Book, so hmmm, Islam is a pretty rational faith.

So who are the 'irrational' or 'illogical' or 'unreasonable' believers in God who reject facts, that you speak of? Down South Evangelicals? Ha.

Let's just agree that you won't understand this.

For a long time I thought you did indeed reject facts, but I now believe you simply don't understand or fully comprehend what we're saying to you. You must smoke a lot of weed nigga. There is a HUGE difference between life on other planets and an almighty god who can stop your heart any second. We know life can only thrive in certain conditions and we know these conditions exist and so to think we're believing in something blindly is amazing. Nobody said anything about being 100% sure of life existing on other planets, but because life already exists here on this small ass planet of ours and in a seemingly endless space, the chances are anything but slim. I have no idea if there's a god or not and ikke, sik, or anybody else, atheist or theist has any muthafuccin idea either. You're the one with blind faith. To quote Bill Maher "I preach the gospel of I DON'T KNOW". You talk like you know something I don't and you're human just like me. Have you any idea how ignorant and stupid you fuccin sound? I will even go as far and say I'm not even sure if Santa Claus is bullshit. I can't prove his existence or his nonexistence. That is the only reason why I or You or Anyone can never be 100% sure of anything that hasn't been proven. The key word here is likelihood and you need evidence to determine likelihood and if you have evidence that backs up your almighty god claim I'd love to hear it. Sadly the argument for god's existence isn't very strong and that is why the chances of him existing are anything but great. I doubt you can tell me something I haven't already heard. No really, I have an open mind. I'd love to believe in such a silly and idiotic thing and I probably would if I had an idiotic mindset. We know life exists, we know there's rust on Mars and we know one of Jupiter's moons has conditions that could easily support life and I personally would be very surprised if they didn't find life there. We know this, because we have these conditions here and we've seen life thrive in conditions no one believed life could thrive in. If you think I'm repeating myself, it's because I am, but you strike me as a person who needs a great deal of help in understanding certain things. You know when I was about 5 years old, I needed to be told the same things many times in order for me to understand them. I believe in you. Try writing this down on paper. That often helps.

It's funny how.. when I make a solid point the only thang that comes back at me is how I 'just don't understand' or have a lack of comprehension.
