In your mind. What makes your train of thought any more valid to the world than the next blokes. From the perspective of someone who sees everyone as equal, nothing.Just look at every post. Its the home of all the chain mails Johnny was talking about.
I swear I'm not only replying to you in this thread but you've said something that piqued my interest. I volunteer at a church and one of my mates there is about to start his internship as a coal mine geo. Churches can be repulsive to people who live in pure logic but that doesn't mean you can't believe in god. You can lead theology or a church from your own perspective.
Isis makes me want to be a christian. Even if god is an imaginary friend he trumps all other imaginary friends. Checkmate athiests.
I am not here to shove atheism down anyone's throats. I've seen how that looks. Richard Dawkins managed to make George Pell look good on QANDA with his view of religion and complete lack of a sense of homour. I will say this though. My study of geology covered the beginning of life on this planet and the evolution of life on this planet. Knowing this was essential in some parts of it to work the age of rocks and how much particular rocks has been moved around since they were laid down. My belief is no God had anything to do with it.
God is the invention of people. People are highly evolved animals not much more special than any other species on the planet despite what some would like to think. I don't require belief in a god to give me comfort. I take responsibility for my own decisions. I marvel at the wonders of nature and evolution. I don't believe in an afterlife. When you're dead it's over. It's what you do when you're alive that counts.
