Do you know what you are talking about? Carbon can't destroy the earth. If you're going to deflect the topic away from God and to global warming at least explain it properly. I'll ignore what you said about Jesus, per your request.
--- Quote from: Shallow on December 22, 2010, 04:21:35 PM ---I already stated I only believe in the good I do because that's the one I want to believe in. You can't use what I said about me and make it seem like you came up with it.
--- End quote ---
That's not a real answer.
--- Quote from: Shallow on December 22, 2010, 04:21:35 PM ---I don't know why people don't want a God or will believe what they want. Freud might be better at figuring that out than me. I'm just telling you how I see it.
--- End quote ---
But you know why YOU do presumably. That's what I'm asking.

History has proven plenty of times people don't like it when 1 person has too much power.
Especially one as powerful and bitter as the God which is described in the old testament.

I don't care about Global warming. The point is there is nothing scientific about saying we are doing it by not going green fast enough. The whole carbon will destroy the earth is a play on words implying the agenda the nuts are pushing. Ever wonder why you don't see any actual scientists at the forefront of this? Every major scientific claim has at least one scientist that becomes a major celebrity because of it. Global Warming has none, because they no better than to look foolish.
Yes it is a real answer, because it was my original claim that you tried to use against me as a question. I said that the reason I am a Christian is the same reason atheists are atheist, and polytheists are polytheists; because it suits each of us to think the way we think. I didn't call anyone closed minded. I said atheists used the I'm smarter than that card, I never said they were less smart. I said we were equal.
I don't know why I want to believe in God, what made me this way. That's why I brought up Freud. You have to really study a person to figure out something like that. Nature, nurture, whatever. Why do I like Nutella in the morning on untoasted sliced bread, and peanut butter at night on toasted bread, and if I have either at the other time it feels weird?
Bad example meant to highlight how trivial it is to attempt at figuring out a person's desire to believe in God. The truth is I feel it is a very deep subconscious matter that would take a team of therapists a few years to figure out.

Snow just caved in the Metrodome, and California has too much rain... global warming my ass.
white Boy:
