Spurstalk helps spread out my 1 or 2 hours of work over an 8 hour period while giving the impression that I'm working furiously behind my computer and typing away.
hearing stories about dudes like you that are trapped in their mundane existence makes me appreciate my life more. So thanks for that.

I'm just bored as lately. It's like Stephen Hawking teaching arithmetic or Michael Jordan playing in Lil' Sprouts League.
People believing in "god"
Jawbone’s Discovery Fills Barren Evolutionary Period
The 2.8-million-year-old jawbone of a habilis predates by at least 400,000 years any previously known fossils.
More significant, scientists say, is that this H. habilis lived only 200,000 years after the last known evidence of its more apelike predecessors, Australopithecus afarensis, the species made famous by “Lucy,” whose skeleton was found in the 1970s at the nearby Ethiopian site of Hadar.

God sure ain't been rushing CREATING man. I guess He's got a lot time and a lot of other stuff to do before He's "getsroundtuit"
Mouse!
Ya Mouse it's not just the old rock that a dental student glued teeth to.
More solid proof!

This drawing was found beneath an Austin Dennys by renouned paleontologist Chumpansie Elovolutionson. Sure fire dating methods have the piece at between 5 million and 8 million years old.
Weird sense of humor
You don't lose anything really if you are incapable of experiencing it or just too blinded by your own ego to notice.
Society definitely loses out. If there is no "God" then what the is the point of being good? Why would a person even want to? I see a hot chick, I'm just gonna go over to her, knock her ass out and her. There is no "God" and I get to have 3 square meals a day and a place to stay. Why be good? If the laws of man were so powerful, then why do you get so many repeat offenders. Why are the jails so full? The funny thing is, it will only get worse.
is God really the only thing holding you back from raping a chick?
Is The Great Dustspect the only thing holding you back?
No. I don't even know what a great dustspect is.
but the same question for you: is God the only thing holding you back from committing horrendous acts of violence?
According to you it's your relative.
I believe all good things originated from God. So ultimately, yes. I could kill pedophiles if i did not believe Gods purpose will be fullfilled and correct all wrongs eventually.
not according to me.
Bible God?I believe all good things originated from God. So ultimately, yes. I could kill pedophiles if i did not believe Gods purpose will be fullfilled and correct all wrongs eventually.
all bad things also originated from God.
According to you.
Nope. It is respect for my fellow man, however, you never know with others. The point I am making is simple. If you can't see it, or you just don't want to try in order to fit an atheistic stereotype.
We are all animals. Why do we need to act civil? Why is it that every ancient civilization had/has some kind of deity or deities? It is only now with technology that people are so out of touch with the natural world and are so sure of our dominance over this planet that they don't really give a about anyone or anything. They only care about their own opinions and refuse to see the points of others. It is kind of like how the government almost shut down because people convinced themselves they were so right that they forgot how to see outside of the box. This is what closed minded thinking does. So keep ridiculing and attempting to twist my words because that is the only thing that atheists like yourself seem to be able to do rather than explore the numerous possibilities in this universe.
Cut n paste?
Have another cup.
Well if you and I both can get along fine without God then there's no logical reason to have him around for
"you never know" just doesn't cut it.
I'm not twisting your words at all. You're trying to walk on both sides of the fence and I'm trying to get you to clarify your belief system.We are all animals. Why do we need to act civil?

And "good" is a very subjective term. If you don't believe in the Bible, you'll have to explain exactly where you get your morals from.
Cup of what?
If you believe that God created all things, then part of "all things" is "bad things".
Pretty simple.
Here is something your professor didn't teach you.
God created his creatures with free will.
They were perfect. Satan, before he chose to bring about evil, had every ability to remain good and perfect.
In the repect that God gave him the choice to commit bad and evil, yes that is true.
However Satan chose to make himself Satan.
that's exactly what my teachers/professors taught me in Christian school
What they didn't teach about was the inherent paradox of free will. I figured that out on my own.
1. Society was formed around common beliefs. The dominant belief being that of a deity/deities.
2. Are you saying that there are absolutely no moral lessons in the Bible? You don't have to believe every parable in the Bible to know what a good lesson really is. If you seriously cannot bring yourself to see any moral value in the Bible, then you are being incredibly pompous. I do believe that "Thou shalt not kill", I do believe that "Thou shalt not steal", I do believe "Thou shalt honor your father and mother". The Bible is far from perfect, but any sane person cannot deny that those three things I just mentioned are pretty good morals to have. So if you agree with at least that, then you cannot say that nothing good can come from the Bible. You don't have to be a believer to understand.
Morality is rather empty with a god (or ancestor, diety, whatever). It's simply whatever society thinks it should be at the time. And society will never consider itself immoral. And that's when you get yourself into all sorts of trouble.
You could say religion does the same thing too and you'd be right. But at least with some sort of holy do ent there is something to compare yourself to over time. Maybe you're not living up to the holy book and need to reform. But at least there is something to base that comparison off of.
