Air Profit, seriously, have you sought medical help? Tremendous progress has been made through science to help those with mental problems, and the stigma of mental illness is rapidly going away.

Below are rhetorical questions, not items for debate!

Holy Spirit? Seriously, you believe in invisible ghosts of god in your imaginary supernatural world and expect others to respect your thoughts and opinions?

Faith? You know that faith just means believing something without any evidence while ignoring all the actual evidence that contradicts the thing you want to keep believing, right? You know all religious faiths are equally flawed, since you dismiss all the 1000's of other ones you don't like for the same reasons I reject yours, right?

If Christians don't base their believe in a book, then why do they keep reading it, teaching it, quoting it and filling hotel rooms with it?

If you are curious about how the world works, take a science-based class like engineering, biology, astronomy, geology, mathematics, physics, chemistry, anything...but don't rely on story-book created ghosts and personal choices to believe supernatural superstitions without evidence, please...Are we trying to move back into the Dark Ages?

Again, just cause some story book says "Jesus" or anyone said anything, this is meaningless and silly to include in any argument. Repeat: If I claim Santa Claus is real because it's in the story book, does that make him real? Etc.! Come on, man, think! Think!

God's love? Power? Etc.? Tell that to his innocent (they didn't eat the apple!) and faithful, loyal, open, humble, belief-filled followers who are being raped right now. And beaten. And who are sick and in pain. And starving in India/Peru/Ethiopia/etc....His "love" and "power" sure aren't impressive to any of us paying attention to the results of this great love and power. Now that's a sad reality. However, it is science that keeps technology progressing, curing diseases and prolonging better lives, not faith.

The Bible is a story book. Get over it! And it's a really, really bad one at that, with Bronze Age nonsense, never ending errors and countless contradictions. That's some awesome word of god those guys penned for him!

Those of us that live in the real world are not lost (see list of logical fallacies) but rather we are the ones that are not afraid to enjoy and learn about and experience reality, and live much richer, fuller, better lives for it, free from the ancient superstitions written down by poorly educated, uninformed, Bronze Age people! Does anyone want a doctor performing surgery using a book from the 1980's? How about the 1900's? The 1800's? The 1700's? How about the 1100's? Or the 600's? Or the 200's? How about the 100's? Come on, man, think! Think!!!

Have a nice day!
