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.

Insult? It's reality. Or are you going to argue that Canada doesn't provide quality syrup?

Hey are folks in Canada atheist or do you just run around bothering us US folks with your nonsense??

Maybe every single time you post, I should bring up obesity. Or are you going to argue that the US doesn't provide quality obesity? Why, you're one of the world leaders in obesity!
As far as bothering US folks;
for the 85th time...don't like my posts, don't read 'em.

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.
I'll see your brother and raise you......

I personally believe in a God, not associating myself with Judaism or Christianity but personally i have found life to seem more fulfilling this way, because for about 5 years i associated with Atheism. Honestly, its sad, if your an Atheist i honestly feel bad for you like to the bottom of my heart. Simply because when you die, you believe nothing happens. How fulfilling is that? The meaning of life? Theres no meaning? You just die and thats it. Personally i like to believe that something frickin happens because i wanna meet my grandpa and see my dad again. But thats just me, i have some hope i like to say and i see proof of that hope being well placed every day.

I'm not certain that is how an Atheist feels. They might die with nothing to move onto but they may be fulfilled by knowing that they made contributions to society and the human race and their legacy will remain on earth going forward. Everyone is different. You dwell on the past in hopes of meeting loved ones you have lost. Others look forward and try to live a meaningful life that has an impact on future generations.
