I have a brother who is a PHD in Physics who was an atheist himself in college and in his young life. But after 40 years of being involved in some of the most high level scientific projects he is once again a devout Catholic with no doubt in his mind that God exists.
Now he is probably more intelligent than anyone on this forum so how do you explain that?
It's not jibberish, he is not alone in his circle.
Sure it is.
Anyone can write anything on the internet.
Not that what your "brother" thinks is relevant, anyway.
You already mentioned him.
Repeating yourself over and over doesn't change anything.
So you think that this world, this perfect habitat for humans just happened out of nothing? Look around you, all the animals, the fish and the birds. All put here to maintain this world for humans. Just because the sheer genius of creation is beyond you....you deny it.
You were put HERE for a reason. Do you not believe that? You are not an animal, you have feelings. You feel for others, when an animal would just look for weaknesses and strike. We are completely different than every single animal on the Earth and for no logical reason.
You have eyes but you will not see, you have ears but you will not hear.
Your attitude is nothing new.
Those few lines prove that you have no clue as to what evolution is and how it one with eco-systems.
...and while we are on the subject and please do not take this personally because I do not know you and how you live your life in relationship to the natural world, but it seems to be that the right wing, who are by far the most self-proclaimed "religious", are the very ones that scoff at ecologically minded individuals and refer to them as "treehuggers" as if that is an insult. Seems to me that believers could stand to take a cue from atheist treehuggers when it comes to the stewardship of the planet that they claim God created.
Just something that stands out in my mind very often and I really find it quite stunning.

Even a lowly rat will free a cage mate and forego food if it means his buddy will avoid an electric shock. Social animals do exhibit empathy. Humans are merely mammals with larger brains, capable of larger atrocities and larger selfless acts of courage. There is no connection to a divine spark.
got something against critters ? go ahead and spell it out. What is this ?
Nobody is running away but to ask "whats the point?" after nearly 100 pages is ridiculous.
Here's how it plays...
C: "Then what's the point?"
A: "The point of what?"
C:"Our lives!! There has to be a reason we exist!"
A: "Why is that?"
C: "Because I'm important damn it! I'm made in God's image and are special!"
.....blablablablabla
Feel free to quote this ever 2-3 pages to save time.
Off to the syrup because you don't get your way. So go the canucks.
You really should think of another "insult". That one is getting quite stale.
