How does one define one's self without branding ourselves with useless labels? like uninspiredfae keeps telling everyone she is a deist. and other people are like im an atheist. i call myself a christian of sorts. Psychiatrists use words to classify humans as if they were animals. The churches use words to gain support and followers. Well as for the brain doctors, I AM NOT AN ANIMAL! i dont know about you, but when i got my thumbs and the ability to make tools we were set apart from the kingdom animalea. im sick of people classifying themselves with such stupid names as Buddhist, Hinduist <thing i dunno, muslim, christian, jehovas witness. Maybe their prophets for their religion were touched by God, but no matter how you look at it, there is one higher power. We all know he is there in the deepest breeches of our soul. I believe the christians and jews make the most sense. Muslims say to kill anyone who does not convert. come on now that cant be good for anyone. But the christian bible has guidelines that would make a utopia one that is kind of like the one Marx dreamed of but God is the ruler and we are all equal.It is the men who put the spin on their religions to benefit them. We are all people and all have our own opinion on God. But we all know he is there. He has to be, it just makes sense. The existence of God is the only logical explanation of creation and existence. Christianity benefits everybody. People are not perfect and they are doing it wrong... not all of them mind you.



This isnt really a debate topic, that doesnt mean close it. This is highly controversial, but you cant debate fact.

Someone who replied to something i said at nearly the same time you did said something about being deist.

mellow.gif That doesn't mean that I called myself Deist... I just said that I agree with parts of what Deism suggests...

I have some labels. Godly people and Bad people. Unless we are guiltless and have been washed in the blood of Christ we are all bad.<-- do you see the period? that means that is the end of that sentence. nothing can be added or erased. My mind IS closed when it comes to that. Because there is nothing anyone can do to disprove that.


There are other ways to describe good and bad: moral and immoral, ethical and unethical. Why must religion takes precedent in all that we do when it isn't the first thing that developed our moralit?. Experience is the first thing that exposes us to right and wrong.

Who can disprove belief? Yours are beyond me and mine are beyond yours, believe it or not. Unless something is factual, validity of proof and soundness must be considered, and because faith can't really hold validity and soundness as there are always holes in the argument, then I don't see how you can disprove me nor I can disprove you. But, it is fun to try and learn from, in my opinion.

You can end your sentence there and be happy with being closed off to the world of possibilities, but I'm just as content as you, perhaps more, being exposed to alternatives and logical reasoning.
