For the record, I find it unlikely we will ever have eternal life (barring death via accident) through science.

It's achievable, probably within 500 years or less, but I suspect religion will wipe us out via war within 300.

Wow, one minor light-hearted quip and the cat is out of the bag and you show your true colours. Some sense of humour you have there. I'm from a group where professing to being a fan of Celine Dion gets that kinda reaction, but it's just fooling around, you know?

Thanks for pretending to be a decent guy for a while and lying about respecting my views, though

I forgive you for your absurd outburst. So much for believing in God making you a better person.

You and your family are in my thoughts.

Out of interest, can you tell me what lies of Satan I have bought into? By the way, implying I am playing for the side of Satan, a being I categorically state does not exist, is as silly as me saying you're playing for team Santa Claus, in the great battle of Santa versus the Tooth Fairy, on account of not openly supporting the fairy.

When you say it..it is a lighthearted quip, but if others make a comment towards you, then they show their true colors, and have no love of God within them.

I am not perfect Humphreys. None of us that believe in the mercy of Christ are, but we know where to go to for forgiveness when we fall short of living up to His commandments.

If you do not believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savoir, you are following Satan hunphreys. There is no middle ground. That is Satan's biggest trump card, getting souls to believe in either God or the devil, or believing in a god or gods , or cosmic life force ,that does not acknowledge Jesus.

I will continue to keep you in my prayers.

If not believing in "the game" due to not being shown evidence of its existence means you're playing for one of the teams by default (the evil one), then the game was deliberately created to be insanely evil, and ridiculous - and we're talking Dr. Evil levels of evil here.

Please remove me from your prayers and do something worthwhile. And stop being fake. Thanks.

Nice, a self-reinforcing paradigm.

Ora, what do you support, rape, or child murder?

If you say neither, it's rape by default.

Oooh, yes, he went there.

(I hope you understand the point I'm trying to make here!)

I'm afraid it's going to happen within the next 10 to 30 years. There's just too much chaos going on everywhere in the Middle East right now. Pakistan has nukes and Iran is almost there. Russia is also missing nukes. If not by nukes then by some form of biological warfare/manmade virus. All it takes is one small group of nutjob towelheads willing to be martyrs...just like 9/11.

Of course, I hope I'm wrong.

Sorry, there has been plenty of evidence shown . Those who have eyes see . Because you refuse to acknowledge, is noway indicative of it being a game created by an insanely evil God. The evil one is the one who takes the eyes of the love and mercy of God, and who twists around the reality, so people can't even acknowledge the GOOD that is in the commandments given to us by God. Yes, the God who gave us those commandments must be insanely evil .

pffft.

And no, I will not stop praying for you. It is my duty and joy as a Christian ,to pray for all souls, and I will do just that.

As far as blaming religions for all wars, that's getting a little old, because anyone with half a brain can see who is really behind wars, and it is a a small group of international people, who have many ulterior motives from engaging in war, than being right about their religion. They lie to the world, they plant false flags, and they generally love to see souls die. They are manipulated and controlled by evil forces, who love to see humans die , and love to steal souls from Christ.

That's the truth of it, its the evil master ,and his cohorts who are behind most wars , so please... let go of the BS religious reasons.

I'm tired of that misnomer. Religion itself is not the cause of any war, no more than a gun is responsible for the person that gets shot. The problem is mankind and if it weren't for the excuse of (twisted and conformed to suit a specific purpose) "religious beliefs," there would be a host of other reasons to choose from for mankind to justify war.

You are in fantasyland Humphreys, thinking religion is the casue of all wars, and that being an atheist prevents it. You and EH are proof positive that being an atheist couldn't prevent any wars, you can't even get along on a simple message board. You can't even accept a persons gesture to pray for you, without hostility.

Of course religion is the problem.

Religious differences cause conflict, and religious books often advocate violence against unbelievers.

Halfabo recently said "Don't fraternize too much with the natives", which is just about the most divisive thing I've ever read. Division causes conflict, simples.

If you like, you can replace "causes" with "fuels", but the root problem is the same - religion.
