It looks like we aren't going to reach a middle-ground on what we see as proven tests.
I'd like to ask;
"There are hundreds of religions because so many people dont want to change their ways and decided to make a religion that says its okay to do what they want to do."
Do you think christianity is one? Or do you think it is the one true one and all the others are just ones made so poeple can do what they want to, which is unchristian?

There are hundreds of religions because so many people dont want to change their ways and decided to make a religion that says its okay to do what they want to do.And like i said you cant scientificly prove God but you cant scientificly prove emotions such as love, hate, or joy, either.
so your tests are flawed

When someone testifies its proven.
Just like when someone testifies in court and convicts a criminal?
Or by someone's actions? Like don't talk live by example?
come on now that is a perfectly good logic your just being closed minded

@terminater2222, why don't you come up with a real argument rather than dimwitted adhominum attacks. Honestly you are behaving like a childish troll

StrokaviMozak, you are the only one insulting.
all22787 (Saturday 22nd of November 2008 12:09:04 PM)
StrokavMozak, if anyone is being agressive it is you.

It is lying polemic.
Be careful in the end someone belives in it.

yes, you are right, 3 things in the bible until now have been proven a lie, 1: how the planet formed. 2:how life formed on planet. 3:noahs ark.
