Talking yoda

Whoever you are, you live in clouds... good luck when falling down... mind you it might hurt...
Irinka is right it is totally personal decision. Actually yoda, you are even dummer then I thought at first... sorry I don't want to offend anyone, but your message : atheists actually believe in god... I better not comment on that, it talks for itself


Off the subject, personal thought:
Irinka is nice!

Smile The only good thing about atheists....

What's the matter V-G? Did I come close to the truth? When you said I was dumber than you thought, you probably wanted me to respond by proving to you why I believe in God. Atheists are a bit on the lazy side. They do believe in God, but they want someone else to do all the thinking and come up with all the good reasons that will reinforce their (weak) belief in God. Thats why atheists call other people dumb. The only good thing about atheists, is they get everyone else to think for themselves, somrthing a lot of Christians don't do.

Ashley, think for yourself.

Irinka, I think you do believe in God. You're probably not only lazy, but if you spent a few years at the Ukranian Orthodox church, you're also a bit confused too. But I do agree the Mormons should stay out. Ukraine doesn't need people to tell them what God thinks. They need to figure it out for themselves. What young people need are more people to look up to that are Christian. Like Alexander Mogilny, who played for the Vancouver Canucks, and now plays for the Toronto Maple Leafs. A few years ago, the Vancouver Sun printed a full page article about Mogilny, and he said he believes in God, and that he thinks things happen for a reason. That's all. But I'm sure hundreds of young kids will remember it. With those few words, he did more good than a full library of words from ahteists.

What makes you think that I'm lazy?

Please support your statement with evidence.

I have nothing to prove to you, you do not know who I am and what I'm about, you judge my disinterest and total lack of faith in a god as self-denial? Your logic is flawed.

A person who believes in a god, will write this word according to his/her beliefs.
I don't believe in any god, this is why I write it in such a manner.

Smile Atheists are lazy! Here's why.

Irina,

I had a feeling I might have to defend myself.

It's not easy to answer the question, ' Is There a God?'
People from the beginning of time have been wondering if there is a God. No one can really prove it, but the evidence is so much more in favour of God, than not, it's not even funny. It's so much easier to say 'There is no God' than to actually prove that God exists. People say there is no God, just so they can hear why other people believe in God. When you say you don't believe in God, you are lazy, not in work, but from the perspective of THINKING. You want someone else to do all the thinking for you, and give you proof. Well, it's not going to happen. You have to figure it out for yourself.

If you want to say why you are not impressed with religions, fine. If you want to say why you are disappointed with people who are very religious, fine. But don't say there is no God, because some young person will believe it. And young people aren't smart enough to go around thinking there is no God.

By the way, what were you doing in the Ukranian Orthodox church, if you don't think God exists? And what makes you think the Orthodox church is so much better than the Mormons? Both are just churches. They probably do as much harm as good.


Yoda
