Easter

Yasu · April 12, 2009

I lol'd

Are you Religious?: Yes.

What do you believe?: Evolution, big bang, etc.

Why do you believe it?: I just don't believe in creationism =/

Do you celebrate Easter?: No.

Amethyst Phoenix · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?: Yes

What do you believe?: This one is complicated, so I'll list a ew things about me.

1) I'm a christian. If you want to get specific, I'm one half roman catholic and one half lutheran.

2) I believe in Christ/Jesus. This should go without saying, because the definitive difference between jews and christians is christians believe in Christ as the son of God. However, I've actually seen some people here say that they're a Christian but don't believe in Christ. You realize how stupid that sounds? Thats the equivalent of saying your a muslim who doesn't believe in Allah, or a Hindu who doesn't believe in reincarnation or karma.

3) I believe in science.

4) I believe the big bang etc happened, but I believe God made it happen. It seems much more likely that some entity made it happen, rather than that we just happened to draw the exact right card out of a deck of billions (actually, it's more like a deck of infinity).

5) I don't blindly believe everything the church tells me, nor do I completely trust science. When there's a "conflict" between science and religion, I think about both "sides" and come to a conclusion I find reasonable.

Why do you believe it?: See # 5 above

Do you celebrate Easter?: This question is too ambiguous, so...

Do you celebrate True Easter: Yes, I celebrate Christ rising from the grave.

Do you celebrate Secular Easter: Sort of; I don't go hunting for eggs etc, but I do get gifts (This years haul: Platinum, TWEWY, and FFX).

Lazer Yoshi · April 12, 2009

I am Religious, Christian, so Easter is special to me. =D

I'm going to church in a bit.

For Easter, I got some candy and 3 Yugioh Packs.

Pulled Dark Master - Zorc and Samnite. ^_^

Enrise · April 12, 2009

Okay, look at the second question, and then the third question.

Are you Religious?:

No, I'm Atheist.

What do you believe?:

The fact that anybody can't live forever.

Why do you believe it?:

Cause it is common sense.

Do you celebrate Easter?:

For chocolate, yes.

Apparently, you just saw the third question, without looking at the second.

Eating my easter egg right now.

Davok · April 12, 2009

First off: Atheism and Theism are both separate types of belief. Saying that your atheist is basically calling every Catholic, Muslim, etc a theist. Theism is a type of belief in which you worship a deity- Atheism is a type of belief where your specific religion (or, belief, whatever you call it) is without a deity. So, atheism isn't an actual specific belief within itself. Only those who don't really believe in anyway, are nonreligious in which they do not have a system of belief to call their own. Unless I'm wrong, but if I am you have to admit that is a pretty educated guess.

Are you Religious?: Yes

What do you believe?: Darwinism

Why do you believe it?: Because it seems the most probable and provable theory on how the human race came up to this point. Also it's pretty interesting.

Do you celebrate Easter?: No.

evilhorus · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?:

Is that Unfortunately I am religious' date=' because that should be a choice made by yourself.

I thought this has been fun, I have found out some people are religious some are not.

And I would not like a massive debate (that could be quite fun actually) but I'd just like to point out;

I am an atheist and a Darwinist.

I do not believe in '[i']intelligent design[/i]' as it is now called.

My parents are rather agnostic Darwinists, but if it came to it they too would be atheist Darwinists.

I would like to ask Raelen, what holes?

Raelen · April 12, 2009

I lol'd

You have no idea.. ^_^

@ Riku: Well, it has yet to be proven wrong...

Skuldur · April 12, 2009

It's better than the bible.

Like in the beginning in the bible, God made 2 humans and they were then cast out of Eden. Then they had 2 boys. Then Cain killed Able and wandered the earth for a while and then all of the sudden there were a lot more humans.

The bible was a child of it's time, it has since been proven wrong.

QueenIsAGreatBand · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?: YES!

What do you believe?: Queenianity! d(^w^)b

Why do you believe it?: Because Queen are awesome! :D

Do you celebrate Easter?: Hell yeah! Chocolate!! Yumyumyum...

Raelen · April 12, 2009

This reminds me of a quote by Darwin:

“To suppose that the eye with all its inimitable contrivances for adjusting the focus to different distances, for admitting different amounts of light, and for the correction of spherical and chromatic aberration, could have been formed by natural selections, seems, I confess, absurd in the highest degree.”

If the very creator of the evolution theory doubts his own theory, that's not a very good sign, now is it?

All the small details of anything in creation from the largest animal to the smallest cell are extremely complex! The chances that all the amazing detail were created by complete total dumb luck are astronomical!!

Now, if the theory of evolution were true, we should see a lot of connecting links between creatures today. And we don't. Also, no connecting links between creatures have been found in the fossil record. (None that can be proven, anyway.)

So basically, the theory of evolution states that absolute nothing exploded, creating billions of planets and stars and cells, and placing small blobs of life in small pools of water on earth. I'm sorry if I see that as a little far fetched.

Really?? Can you show me the proof please, because obviously you've already found it.

Skuldur · April 12, 2009

Dinosaurs. There I've proved the bible wrong.

Have you heard of something called DNA? It connects us to other animals. Chimps have 98% of the same DNA as us.

Zeroshot · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?: When it benifits me

What do you believe?: I have to pee

Why do you believe it?: My bladder hurts

Do you celebrate Easter?: WTH does that have to do with anything?

Raelen · April 12, 2009

Dinosaurs. There I've proved the bible wrong.

The Bible actually mentions the existence of dinosaurs. Dinosaurs are proven by scripture.

Have you heard of something called DNA? It connects us to other animals. Chimps have 98% of the same DNA as us.

Yes, I am aware of DNA. As is this scientist:

"While many evolutionists proclaim that human DNA is 98% identical to chimpanzee DNA, few would lie by idly and allow themselves to receive a transplant using chimpanzee organs. As a matter of fact, American doctors tried using chimp organs in the 1960s, but in all cases the organs were totally unsuitable. The claim of 98% similarity between chimpanzees and humans is not only deceptive and misleading, but also scientifically incorrect. Today, scientists are finding more and more differences in DNA from humans and chimps. For instance, a 2002 research study proved that human DNA was at least 5% different from chimpanzees—and that number probably will continue to grow as we learn all of the details about human DNA."

Lelouch Lamperouge · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?:Yes, I'm A Strict Nangist

What do you believe?: That I'm Nang :D

Why do you believe it?: Because It Makes Perfect Sense To A Nangsome Person

Do you celebrate Easter?: No I Celebrate Neaster The Nanger Version.

It's still a link.

Tell me, when in history does the bible put dinosaurs?

Raelen · April 12, 2009

It's still a link.

Tell me, when in history does the bible put dinosaurs?

The Book of Job is one of the oldest books ever written. In it, God tells Job of his greatness as Creator and describes an animal, called Behemoth, as follows:

Behold now, Behemoth, which I made as well as you; He eats grass like an ox. Behold now, his strength in his loins, And his power in the muscles of his belly. He bends his tail like a cedar; The sinews of his thighs are knit together. His bones are tubes of bronze; His limbs are like bars of iron. ( Job 40:15–18 )

Marginal notes in most Bibles speculate that Behemoth was probably an elephant or a hippopotamus, but those animals have tails like ropes. Behemoth had a “tail like a cedar.” Any animal with a tail as huge and strong as a cedar tree is probably a dinosaur. Job 40:19–24 describes this giant, difficult-to-capture animal as not alarmed by a raging river. If the writer of Job knew of a dinosaur, then the evolution position is wrong, and man saw dinosaurs.

Of course, you decide your interpretation however you want.

Also, bear in mind that the Bible doesn't actually state that there are no dinosaurs, thus almost all creationists believe in dinosaurs.

Marly · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?: Sure.

What do you believe?: Minamimotism.

Why do you believe it?: Because Sho Minamimoto is zetta sexy, and can easily shake the air and drop the moon.

Do you celebrate Easter?: Easter is garbage, CRUNCH! I'll add it to the heap.

Larxene · April 12, 2009

Are you Religious?: F**k yeah.

What do you believe?: Scarletism.

Why do you believe it?: I'm the God of my religion.

Do you celebrate Easter?: The only Holiday in Scarletism is March 25th, when I feast on the blood of the innocent.

Of course, you decide your interpretation however you want.

If dinosaurs and humans would have lived in the same period of time, then humans would have gone extinct. Tyrannosaurus Rex alone would be the end of us.

Congratulations you have failed at this debate. Good day to you.

Larxene · April 12, 2009

Creationism is stupid.

Even the funking Pope said that he believed in evolution.

Not everything in the Bible is to be taken literally.
