Just curious who would consider themselves a christian. Under this definition. That there is a God and he did write the Bible. Or that it was inspired by him. That his word is perfect and without flaws. That Jesus is Gods only son and the only way to heaven.

Atheist, bordering on militant, in that I believe the world would be infinitely better governed by reason than by idiotic adherents to Bronze Age fairy tales.

My philosophy is that of Epicurus:

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?"

Quod erat demonstrandum.

Let me add to that, that if he does exist, he's a monstrous great bastard and I want nothing to do with him.

And with any such logically fallacious argument of this category presenting another alternative invalidates the argument to whit: God specifically does not intervene because we were granted free will and self determinism. It is our responsibility to rise above the evil and to create a civilization worthy of the name. To demand of God that he solve our problems for us is abdicate responsibility for our actions. That is why I am so derisive of the rupture nuts as theirs is simply another excuse for avoiding responsibility.

Q.E.D.

Most humans from back in antiquity until now, prefer to believe in or desire there be a divine being. The degree of their belief is the dividing point, from atheism to extremism.

Religion and science agree on one point of their arguments, that is, very basic religion God always was, the scientist says matter always was, and from there they diverge.

The extremes on any subject are often times equally wrong. From rejection to ecstasy is one point on the same circle.

Once had two friends, one a scientist, the other a PHD in theology.

One knew there was no such thing as a God, the other knew full well there was.

The scientist friend was fairly regular at church however, his explanation, I want to make sure.

Hedging your bets is never a bad idea.
