Re: The existence of God
drz, were you frightened by a vicar/priest/mullah/rabbi as a small child?
You seem to be very confrontational and agressive on this matter.

No. Firstly I don't know who this "we" is, secondly I haven't been quoting passages from the bible - I did it once in direct answer to a question put to me by an atheist. You see when I was asked where something in particular was mentioned in the Bible, I wouldn't have been able to answer had I not quoted from it.
So again. 'why'. What's your motivation?

Perhaps its a bad personality trait?
Personally I have to work on The fruits of the spirit daily!
Galations 5 verse 22-23. The fruitage of the spirit is, love, joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faith, mildness, self control.
Mildness is where I miss the mark often!
Long suffering is what this thread now is!

Refuting bible passages with "science, fact and logic" is hardly difficult. You might as well refute passages from Harry Potter with the same.
However, as a matter of historical record there are items in the bible that could be linked to actual events.
The ark for example. I note that you refute it by saying that there could not be enough water in the world or a wooden boat big enough.
But you have to remember that back when the old testament was written the size of the world wasn't known and the great flood was probably a local event. It's pretty much accepted that the flood centered around the black sea and the Bosporus
http://www.nationalgeographic.com/bl.../ax/frame.html
Also how the parting of the Red Sea could be attributed to the massive volcanic eruption on Santorini
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/786902/posts
Santorini also being the accepted home of the Atlantis legend.
If you want to use science and logic then don't dismiss or belittle, but believe that many of the events in the bible probably happened, inexplicable in their day they have been attributed to a higher power and embelished over the millienia.

You try explaining that to the brainwashed godbots! You put facts and figures based on the impossibility of it all and they just mock you as an idiot and question your education and they have the audacity to mock Scientology as a CULT and go on believing in their mythical hocus-pocus.

Shame on you DRZ.
Not been called a Godbot before, lots of other things mind, I will put that on my list of mildly offensive terms to call people who have a faith in God!
(My favourite is Godbotherer, my kids call me that at times!)
No one brainwashed me, I was a mature and so called educated lady when I got my faith and personal belief in God.

Because he's getting out on you what he wanted to with his parents but wasn't brave enough.
Phone mummy & daddy, get it all off your chest and then have a nice big cry
