OK - I don't have a religion. And I don't see what your question has to do with the title of your question. Religion doesn't play into the 5 'Entities' that you listed. So not quite sure where you are going with this but.... \n\nI am quite content to say that there is currently no answer to your question. If I could explain it - I should be paid many big bucks for the answer as it seems your question is one of those that is unexplainable, and one that scientists labour over daily.\n\nWe might never know. But in the same respect, I do not believe that a 'Higher Being' is necessarily the only other option to natural causes of life on this planet or the universe.\n\nI suspect that 'Intelligence' IS the basis and foundation of molecular biology, not separated from the article, not an outside force. Why do we need to personify that intelligence? In whatever form it exists - unlocking that intelligence will be a task-and-a-half.

As a Christian, I have never forced my religion on anyone, nor have I try to convince them my way was the only way. Yes granted you have some cut throats out there, but not all are that way. there are some really good people out there, both believers and non. You guys are intitled to the same freedom of religion (or lack of) as me, it is NOT my right or duty to push you. if a non-beliver asks me a Q i will answer or edify, but never r we to force it on you. Those who do that are wolves in sheeps clothing.

dude i agree fully, worship none and worship all, that is the way of the book. HAIL THE NONBELIEVERS I SAY! Fucking christians, they should all burn in what they see as hell. All christianity now-a-days is propaganda(fear lies and deceit) i believe no religion should be allowed, and i believe everyone should just have their own "views" instead of just a fucked up corrupted religion\n\nBTW< FUCKING GOD DOESN'T EXIST YOU DUMB ASSES! SO STOP TELLING ME TO LIVE BY HIS WAYS AND SHIT, THIS SUCKS ASS AND SO DO ALL OF YOU GODDAMN CHRISTIANS

I have found some answers to be shockingly intolerant -- particularly when it comes to the Muslim faith, you seem to get a lot of so-called believers spouting off hate-filled nonsense.\n\nBut if you're just talking about people expressing a belief that they sincerely have ... it starts to walk a finer line then, doesn't it? One of the things I find I differ the most with mainstream Christians on is that I don't believe that the Bible is a literal history book. I believe much of it is metaphorical, meant to be read in a way to discern the essence of and ways of God. It is not meant to be read as literally the history of the Earth. I suppose that makes my belief "intolerant" of those who believe in the literal Bible because I refuse to give up what I believe and turn to what they believe. But I am respectful of others' views; I don't tell them they're ignorant. I respectfully present my argument and move on. \n\nSo I think the problem is more a lack of respect than a lack of "tolerance." Tolerance by its very nature really implies giving up your personal views to conform to a whole, which is the antithesis of many people's faith. I also find many folks on here to be quite sanctimonious, which is quite funny to me. I'm no angel, and I can admit it, but I try to live the good life. I wouldn't dream of coming on here and preaching to others in cyberspace how much better I am than them, and I would never presume to know who will and won't be going to a warmer clime when they shuffle off this mortal coil. That's really not for me to decide or even speculate on, yet I see so many Christians "playing God" round here for lack of a better term.  sheesh.

No, I lack belief in all gods that I've come across so far. It's not possible for me to believe in something if I haven't seen/experienced/perceived anything that makes me think it exists.\n\nTo akpajuju, what if you believed in the wrong god and that god treated idolatry much worse than simply lacking belief? Or what if there is a god that respects honest lack of belief due to never having seen any evidence, but condemns insincere profiteering people who "believe just in case"? You're no "safer" than an atheist. Also it isn't a choice, I can no more choose to believe a god exists than I can choose to believe I'm sat on the back of a unicorn right now.

I believe in what you believe it seems. I don't think the evolutionary theory is an excuse though. Satan had to do something to give non-believers a way to think without the Lord in their life.Now the monkey thing may be wierd or stupid,but if you didn't believe in the Lord, what would you believe to prove He doesn't exist?

OK. Good to know. Wasn't trying to in the first place, though. Seems you are now doing the same, so I guess I could ask you the same question. \n\nI'm OK if you don't believe in a deity. Please be OK that I do.\n\nWhy so angry, though? *hugs* :)

I don't believe in Darwin's theory because that would be against my religion, Catholic. I believe God created all in one way and each individual is different, not a copy of another that has been changed by "Evolution".

I am an atheist and yes, quite a few people have started thinking differently because of my conversation.  You need to know though that to bring someone out of being brainwashed takes in the very least, months, if not a few years.  What I talk about are how we are told something since birth, of course we're going to believe it.....then compare that to them being born somewhere else on the planet...IE: If you were born in Turkey you'd be muslim (example).  Then I talk about how it is impossibly for anyone to know (because it is) however that is usually an agnostic stand.....atheists are just pissed off agnostics.  lol.  I will give them books to read and help them understand that they dont' necessarily have to believe what they've been told and to seek out other beliefs and religions even.  The intelligent ones come around, the ones that live in denial never do......Simple mathematics, it will take a few hundred years to overcome what those in power use to keep themselves in power...... plain and simple.  be well, jack

I agree with you 100%  Many of the morons who proclaim their atheistism have no idea what the bible has to say.  Also, so many say that Christians twist the meanings of the scriptures to say what they want to hear.  The the Atheist are 10 times worse.  The ones that actually do read the Bible can take an absolutely beautiful verse and twist it into something Hannis.  They are also notorious for taking things out of context, and picking one verse out of a complete story to bash.    It is also very interesting that some of these Atheist spends so much time reading the bible...that's the real kicker.  I have absolutely no interest in Pagan Cults, I do not believe and don't care too.  I leave it at that.  I don't read their books, and challenge their beliefs, I just ignore it.  Most of the proclaimed Atheist on this Q&A challange and read the Bible because they want to beleive in God, they just need our help to get on the right path.  As you can see there are more athesist crawling on the spirtuality and religion section than Christians.  If they didn't crave the Good News, they wouln'd follow this section.

You know, I don't even really mind that some religions think others are wrong.  That's to be expected.  What bugs me is that most religions feel the need to convert people who don't wish to be converted.  By their very nature, a person's religious beliefs exclude all OTHER religious beliefs.\n\nThe REAL issue at stake, I think, is how we deal with that.  You and I don't have the same beliefs.  I think yours are wrong (not morally wrong, merely incorrect), and you think mine are wrong.\n\nSo what?  So we don't agree.  Big deal.  Doesn't bother me a bit.  I am perfectly okay knowing that there are other systems of belief out there that do not match my own.\n\nBut there are FAR TOO MANY people in the world that simply cannot abide that someone else out there would DARE believe something different.  And even more frightening is the number of people who would take some kind of action against "the faithless" or "the infidels" or "the unbelievers," or whatever they are calling us this week.

Since I don't believe in such a being, nothing.\n\nBut I wonder what Christians think about their god watching them on the toilet, having sex etc.

I believe in God.  I believe man wrote the Bible, and I agree with you that it is inaccurate.  That does not mean that God does not exist.  For the same reason, just because you do not accept part of it, does not mean you cannot accept God.

I have no reason to disprove the Quran it is your job as a person trying to convert me to prove that you are right and at the same time prove that I am wrong. If you cannot make a case for both then you should not expect converts.

i think it's funny how snotty you are. why do you ask these kind of questions when it obviously just annoys the s*** out of you. for some reason i find you very intriguing \nthough. to answer your question i don't have a "religion"\ni don't go to church. i don't think you need to in order to believe in Jesus. i have been to church and find the people\nanal and pretentious. and i cant stand the holier than thou\nattitude. I'm not a "bible thumper" as you say. i have read some of the bible i have read a lot of book about people who believe in Jesus. and what they have gone through in there life's because of it. books about martyrs\nyou've never seen anyone crucified for believing in atheism have you? because it easy."beliveving in atheism" but allot of people have died because they love Jesus. and i think it goes a lot further than blind faith.i read a book one time about a prison guard who use to torture people because they wouldn't denounce there faith in Jesus. and one day he had this guy in his torture room laying naked on a table and pounding his nuts flat with a mallet. and the guy looks up at the torturer and said . i still love you anyway. and bit more i cant remember verbatim but in the end this torturer ended up \nfinding Jesus through that experience and found him self back in that prison being tortured him self..\ni know you are probity sitting there lol. but i find this shit fascinating. would you be tortured for you belief in evolution?when it comes down to it i know my faith is no where near that. but i want to believe in jesus. and thats why i do...

IF you truly are NOT A BELIEVER... then why on Earth would you even bother to reason out with someone who may or may not be able to FULLY EXPLAIN things to you in the first place?? Like, what's the big deal anyway, right?\n\nHowever, I suggest that if you are CURIOUS enough to know or to find out, it is best that you ask THOSE who have the knowledge and capacity to do so personally rather than in an open forum since, by asking it HERE, I'll bet that you'll get even much MORE CONFUSED than ever before with the myriad answers you'll get from all three sides of the coin.\n\nKnow what I mean?
