I'm not even reading replies here, because I might get caught up and I don't have time. I just want to say I haven't dropped out. I have enjoyed it and do want to participate more. My grandmother has passed away. She was 90 years old and the last few years have been difficult on her. There was no on...

We do have similar tastes. I like all of those. I also like U2 (especially their latest album) and Sting, Paul Simon, Nora Jones, KT Tunstall, The Fray... I'm just throwing names out there. There are way more. Heck, I like some of what the Gorillaz put out too. But I've never really gone to concerts...

Steve, That it was my presumption of what God is was a given. But really, that is the only God I can debate because I've concluded (with all due respect to my theist colleagues), as you have, that most others are open to inconsistancy. No; but, then again, parents aren't all-knowing, or all-powerful...

Chicago and Boston Here is the really, really sad thing. Maybe I'm old. But I was just thinking about some songs of theirs the other day, and that was what popped in my head. But right now, I can't even get them to come to the fore front of my brain. I know it is in there somewhere. Right now, I can...

Ack! Lots of posts. But I think we're still down to Steve's question. What is the nature of God? If a relevant God exists, he will be good, all knowing (for all practical purposes), and all powerful (within the bounds of natural law). It is clear from the evidence of human experience as well as scri...

Dr. Mobius, I like that. I think that is a very apt analogy. The only problem is, if God doesn't exist then when we die we also cease to exist and will not know that we were right. The only way we could possibly know if we were right were if A) There is an afterlife, B) God existed, and C) we believ...

Steve, Well, it looks like we are getting off anyway and I would rather discuss how to come together in a world where we hold such different views. However, I couldn't let this one go. Those prayer tests made some assumptions that are not necessarily correct, and they left out some basic assumptions...

Do I represent the majority of religious thought? For people who take their religion seriously enough that they study it for themselves, yes. This is where my definition of pseudoreligious comes in. Many people don't seem to want to get to the truth, but they want to gain comfort, a community. Relig...

Hrm... I don't think the Bible alone constitutes good evidence because it has gone through too many heads to get to us. I don't believe existance itself is proof because we don't have a control. This world is exactly what it would be if there were a God, or if there weren't. We cannot see what exist...

I have no idea how we could have lost the birthday thread. I thought maybe just the sticky got lost and so when through to try and find it, but it simply isn't there. There was a lot of copy pasting into the database because for some reason it wouldn't automatically take in the new database. So mayb...

Actually, the why of obedience to rules/commandments and morality is a good one. There are three levels of obedience. The lowest is obedience through fear. You are afraid of punishment, so you obey. The next is obedience through honor. You want to do the correct thing, so you obey. You could argue t...

Most of the database is transfered over. On the other site, we have the upgrade already running. I myself haven't yet had a chance to take a look at it, except I know Vlad used a green theme. Anyway, we are still waiting on register dot com. Yes, I'm going to say their name because they are mired in...

Hey John, This is what I want you to know. Pweb almost died about a year ago. I considered just giving up because it didn't mean that much to me. It cost money, the rest of the site was and now is even more in a shambles, and no one else really seemed to want to actually take care of it. But you did...
