Debate Rules
Here are the general forum rules that you must follow before you start any debate topics. Please make sure you've read and followed all directions.
- Topics are not to bash others.
- Immature behaviors/comments will not be tolerated.
- Please remember, not everyone thinks like you. People have different ways of thinking and different perspectives. Let's respect each other's thoughts and responses.
- PLEASE, search before making new topics--especially popular topics like "God" and "Abortion" etc.
- PLEASE, read through the thread or at least a couple pages before posting. We have to maintain a certain level of maturity in here.

You can post anything, anywhere, and whenever you want, but the same goes for us. We can tell you how stupid you are, and how you should be forced into a life of indentured servitude where you don't have to think. |

Which Dalai Lama?
You know there's been more than one different Dalai Lama, right? You can't just say "the Dalai Lama". That's like saying "the Senator". |

QUOTE(ersatz @ Mar 15 2008, 10:34 AM) Which Dalai Lama? I don't know about a racist, but the current Dalai Lama is definitely a jerk. Anyone fighting for Tibet's "freedom," really doesn't know shit about the history of the country. I mean, the Dalai Lama is definitely a dictator king, and he loves his caste system. |

Why do Atheists use Christianity and their Bible as a source for God and God's prophets? I thought Atheists were independent thinkers? At least independent enough to use other sources in which they could cross reference. I would think that atheist would realize by now that Christianity has been beatin to death, why not use another source?

Your problem is that you're using the atheists you argue with in Internet forums as a frame of reference. If you read the work of atheists like Richard Dawkins, you'd find that they argue against not only the Christian God, but every religion's God, the concept of God, and theism in general. |

Lets just agree to disagree... it's obvious that til' this day no one will ever be able to prove that God does or doesn't exist. And I'm happy with accepting that. I'll stick to my faith and you stick to whatever you believe in
