GOD

Of course, many atheist states and governments prove to be just as violent as fanatical religious orders.

which proves?

How can infinity exist outside of the mind? If time is eternal, would I not have to transgress an infinite amount
Of time to reach this moment?

why, are you as old as time? time is infinite, you on the other hand are not. you exist somewhere in time between point A and B. and i understand time for you personally is not infinite.

I think God exists independently of us. He created us out of "love", so says the Christians.

why? maybe if does exist he created us out of boredom? maybe the christians got it wrong ; heres my idea though it's not finished Here.

I'm not too keen on church either. I do think it's a nice community act. That IS what organized religion
Is about, anyway. 'Tis why it's "organized". I've got no outstanding problems with it, though.

i think religion organized or other is about control. about making others believe what you say you believe. most organized religions are evangelistic. they have to be in order for them to get followers.

I hate the double standards, though. When scientists "change their views" they're called "updated" or
"Cutting edge" but when religion "evolves" or "alters itself" people jeer and remark on how foolish
The entire thing is.

science changes because the information changes, what we know changes. gods word on the other hand has been the same for millennia. but somehow the church can't seem to interpret it, i always thought the ten commandments where easy enough to understand. why do we need all the trimmings and paraphernalia? science on the other hand is still searching if you will for their own ten commandments, unlike the church they were never handed down

Sorry, I have ADD. I love jumping from topic to topic

Also, what about natural law? Morality, the idea that we all have a moral "standard" which we abide by?

in the sd and d theirs no jumping lol. you can veer a little but no jumping.
you can always start a new threadhy:
