    Firmbeliever I am still waiting for your response on my 49.999 to 50 theory. Don't be, self righteous father like Chuck; who tried to blind side Freethinka, :confused: by calling my questions silly. I would dearly like for you to answer my questions, please.

    As I keep saying, I am not here to argue with anyone (especially when it is to argue just for arguments sake) and I am not here to prove my faith to you or to make you believe in my faith.
    I know I am not perfect but I know/believe God Almighty is perfect and that is enough for me to have faith in Him.

    :) :) :)

    To me, god is the one thing that's going right in my life!
    In a life of depression, meaninglessness, no real future to look forward to, and a lot of hurt being carried around in my heart, god came into my life, and for the first time, there was something really worth struggling for! I went through crisis's of faith, pain, disapointement, but I still kept trying! Because I had realised that GOD IS WORTH IT ALL, worth all the pain, worth every struggle, worth every hurt, worth dying for!
    So I kept trying. I sunk deeper into depression, and god lifted me out of it, suddenly, while I was worshipping, I began to smile. I started laughing, just out of nowhere, for no reason other than joy in god. I KNOW NOW THAT I HAVE PURPOSE AND MEANING AND A BRIGHT FUTURE.
    And god is guiding me towards that future.
    I was the kid who didn't really talk so good, but now, gods gifted me with a love of writing stuff, and hey someone from this site added me on msn to ask me "are you really 15? i dont believe it! you sorta inspired me!"
    I went from wanting to kill myself, to telling others passionatly that their future is bright and that they can do anything.
    And I'm still growing in god. I'm still learning. And I am going to do so much better with my life!

    Cal, I have to say that your avatar reminds me of noodly appendages :).

    You and I are similar. We have had a similar path in our early life. But I never found God, I found my own way out of the dire state that I was in, with the help of friends and family.

    Did someone say noodly appendages? I should be offended, but instead, I will link something with "noodly appendages"

    Yes that's right, THAT! Is in wikipedia.

    NeedKarma likes the current Cal avatar. Pay no attention to the monkey on a recruiting mission. :)

    Of course you cringe, because you know the back story as to why that deity was "discovered". :D

    I'm much more fond of the Invisible Pink Unicorn (Blessed be her Holy Hooves). She's much less ridiculous, more noble, and fits the same purpose.

    Would that mean that the godless are totally lacking in goodness? Or do we need to redefine what God is to make him less of a mathematical or semantic issue?

    Morganite, you may be on the something: if one is an atheist then they do not have to worry about evil or satan - it becomes a non-issue!
