Hi Cherry....

Prof. Antony Flew”
Yipee there is a god and it is not a Christian one!!!

So are you a deist now..... a step in the right direction?
Or were you counting on nobody actually reading the link?
all the best

Hey , I recall saying that It might be a good " read". You read it , good ! I'm a book worm so, it's required for my profession to read and study incessantly. Actually, it's a step in the right direction for the atheist in the article. This guy obviously has yet to be immersed in the Full Complexity the The God Most Hig in which he will eventually discover The word of God, and Jesus Christ.

Hi Cherry .... I thought so...but I agree with you ... in another ten years he will see the lord and by the time he's 110 years old he will finally see the light and realise that he does not know! Then he finally rest peacefully, knowing that we cannot know.

Thanks for your note .... Yes Canada is nice especially BC, but then again I have enjoyed living in South Africa and England. In my experience any place is what you make of it.

all the best

Excellent thread, im just dwelving into the forums these days, pretty kick ass topics.

What if there is no God ? Well where is God now ? Is he right here and what makes one think that everything thats happenning is happenning due to a higher power, Physics helped us realise the laws of Gravity, what ever does one know and believe about God helps us turn the wheel and ensures we all sleep without snoring so that she wont leave our side the next morning with a yellow note saying "Hmmm..."

There is no God and there will never be, so honestly there is no point in this thread.

I get questions like this a lot. But usually in the form of "If tomorrow we foundout there was no god, people wouldjust go out and murder, rape and steal?"

I usually reply by asking "So if you found out there was no god you would go out immediately and murder, rape, and steal?"

Now they must either admit that they would either:

1. Not, and thus prove my point or

2. Admit that they would go out and murder, rape, and kill.

You would be surprized how many Christians will admit to #2.

Cherry, you are always saying things like you know how to debate (and won't lose), you have proof, you can do all sorts of things....

Why don't you post your proof, or actually debate something of substance?
