: Like rat, it behooves me to leave open the
: possibility that Spiderman is, in fact, God.
:
: After all, how could I know.
:
: (And besides...anyone who looks that good in
: tights may, in fact, be God...)
:
:
:
: Lian Dao,
:
: Spider Man is a Marvel Comics Super Hero. A
: Fiction. Tights or no tights, Spidy is a
: myth at best.
:
: God, on the otherhand, I see proof of God's
: existence everywhere I look. Nature is
: overbrimming with examples of Intelligent
: Design.
:
: The Big Bang. What is that if it is not
: proof that our World had a beginning? What
: caused our World to suddenly appear from
: seemingly nothing? Time, infinite time?
: Nope. Time did not exist before the Big
: Bang. Time only moves in one direction.
: Unless of course you are living in Marvel
: World with your buddy Spidy. Chance? Nope.
: There isn't a chance in Hell that the
: Universe just 'happened' spontaneously.
: Right. Would you like to buy the Brooklyn
: Bridge, cheap. Just a million dollars, and
: it is all yours.
:
: No my friend, this world we find ourselves
: in did not just happen. It was designed.
: Ours is a just right Universe or we would
: not be here. Next you are going to tell us
: that if we give you long enough you will
: find a watch that just happened without
: anyone making it. A watch that just came
: together by chance, wound itself up, set
: itself, and then started ticking. Right.
:
: The Universe is much more complex than any
: watch. A human being is much more
: complicated than any watch. Life just
: happened. Right.
:
: Butcho

:
:
: *scribbles something onto notepad*
:
: Hmm.
:
: Yes.
:
: Interesting.
:
: Now, i'm going to show you some shapes and i
: want you to tell me what you see, okay?
:
:
:
: Steve,
:
: My check is in the mail.
:
: At least I have the balls to talk about the
: possibility of there being a God--a Creator.
: At least I am open to such a possibility.
: IMO, the probability.
:
: That you suggest I am insane for even
: thinking such thoughts and others have
: chosen to ignore my post altogether does not
: prove or disprove my sanity or yours or
: theirs or God's existence or nonexistence.
: All it proves is that I have more courage
: than most here. I am the rebel here.
:
:
:
: Erm Butch? It was me, Lian Dao who wrote
: that. Not Steve.
:
: As to being the rebel here, what are you
: rebelling against exactly?
:
: The fact that some posters here may not
: agree with what you say?
:
: Call me Mr Picky, but i don't really see in
: those paragraphs you posted above any degree
: of hard, fast conclusive evidence for the
: existence of your 'god'.
:
: Perhaps you could use your courage to
: answers my questions which i have asked you
: upon a number of occasions and to which i am
: yet to recieve an answer:
:
: Where does your god live? Why did he create
: us? And if he created everything then why
: should he care either way as to whether or
: not we believe in him because it wouldn't
: matter either way anyway?
:
:
:
: And for the record i wasn't implying that
: anyone was insane or in need of psychiatric
: attention.
:
: The point that i was trying to get across,
: was that in seeing patterns in random paint
: splodges, or clouds even, is not inherently
: different than claiming 'Intelligent Design'
: anywhere in the kosmos.
:
: What the thinker, thinks, the prover,
: proves.
:
:
: Lian Dao,
:
: Right.
:
: Butcho
:
:
:
: Still no answers there to my questions
: Butch?
:
: But that's okay.
:
: i understand.
:
Lian Dao,
Right.
