See you assume that all atheists MUST believe in evolution. You pit your religion against evolution probably because it is more scientific and logical than your religion so it poses more of a threat to your beliefs. I know many atheists who know nothing about evolution and just don't really care to know.

If I tell someone I don't believe in their Christian concept of God many people automatically jump to the conclusion that I believe in evolution and that I am going to defend evolution. I don't know squat about evolution, sorry to disappoint them. They are all ready with their arguments and they are sorely disappointed.

I know God just as much as any Christian. You think Christians own God. My relationship with God is personal and I am not Christian, nor am I an "evolutionist."

I don't feel attacked at all. I just want you to realize that when you say things like that that you are trying to claim that Christians OWN GOD. You don't even realize you are doing it.

And nobody is talking about owning evolution. I did not mention evolution and I don't ever talk about 'evolution.' I don't even know why you even brought that subject up. Its completely OFF TOPIC.



And that statement INCLUDES YOU and Christianity. So stop trying to own God.

Here you are expressing you view of what God is and what 'he' does etc. And you are stating that only Christians know what they are talking about when it comes to God.

If you don't call that trying to "own" God then I don't know what it is. You are owning the concept of God and making the claim that it is the only correct one.

Everyone else who believes in God doesn't know what they are talking about. That is what you ARE SAYING.

You are owning God.

I hope this clears things up about what I mean by "owning God."

Now you are saying that only Christians know what they are talking about when it comes to God.



That is exactly what I mean when I say that Christians don't own God. Stop hogging the God concept.

But if you want, why not post another one in the Christian singles forum. Then you can go there and you won't have to deal with other people's concepts of God.

The point I am trying to make is your assumption that only Christians know anything about God and can discuss this subject. That is "owning God."

I simply offer it as a warning to others. I'm glad you find it amusing.

It's what can happen when you play with the occult. That and much worse.

It didn't stay around more than a few minutes. I mean the contact made me throw up and nearly pass out.

Luckily this one was not violent (or at least did not stay around long enough to do violence) but it did make me physically ill.

I have not seen an angel nor a demon. I did, however, have contact with a demon once and I don't recommend the experience.

Really? Did you use the oporturnity to ask why god needs to create multiple species of beings as servents?

Or did your ego take over preventing you from making any more logical assumptons other than you were seeing a guardian angel sent JUST FOR YOU becasue god thinks you're so special?

According to your quote everying you wrote after "here is the biggest lie" is actually a lie. If what is 'truth' to you is not communicated any better than that, then your words will not be an effective devise for relaying that which might be viewed as the opposite of a lie.

Just a constructive criticism - do carry on.

Now I'm wondering why you think that this would better be posted in the "Christian singles?" Christians don't own God. I believe in God and having a purpose in life -- and I'm not a Christian.

God always hears our prayers and questions. We may not see how he answers our prayers right now but God is always working even when we can't see it. Don't doubt that. Many times God simply is teaching us patience. God will reveal his will to us in His timing. He knows what is best for us. He will answer us in a special way just for us and give us peace. Just keep listening for God and put His will above your own.

So long we are alive we are thankful to 'God'.
What is the ultimate goal of the life?

If you look for hate you will find it.
Look for the light in others.

Shiki Deprivation Syndrome (SDS): A condition whereby a hot female (known as a Shikette) feels pangs of lonliness and anxiety because of not being in contact with The Shiki. Cure for this is providing Shiki with a special Shiki slurpee.

In the past that was true, but people today are more enlightened to spiritual values I would think. In addition to that there are laws in place that a person must be proven to be a danger to himself and or others before anyone can confine them in a mental institution.

Besides, President Bush claimed to have conversations with God. Nobody thought he should be committed. (Except me maybe because I think he was a danger to the entire world...LOL)
