have you heard of someone being posessed? Satan and his minions can go way beyond temptation. taking responsibility for your own actions and asking for forgivness is a part of Christianity. i was stating that by nature man isn't evil, and that its Satan that wants man to do evil so he can obtain there soul upon there death.
 
Syszygy do you believe in the story of Adam and Eve?
i believe in Jesus!
 
well if you believe in stories aobut the bible and jesus , then you would see that TX is talking about how Eve was tempted with an apple, satan didnt force her to have it.


i took TX's as meaning in general, he didn't even give an example. your assuming Eve is what he was talking about, but i didn't make that same assumption. so why would i mention Eve in my response to TX?

 
If you read what I typed i clearly said that was what  TX was talking about, your retort was that you didn't realise that? lol ,oh ya and i almost forgot, most people in history who claim to have been possessed by a demon actually were cases of schizophrenia

no i just didn't make any assumption about TX's point. i took it he ment it in general terms because he wasn't specific, and he never gave an example. your try'n to imply that i should of known that TX was speaking of Eve if im acually smart at all instead of just adding to the descussion. you must not have much to add?

oh and it seems that schizophrenia diagnosis are very common atm? hm?

i was speaking in general terms, eve would be an example, so would Jesus when the devil tried to tempt him

in the end we all have a choice, it merely takes the will to make the right choice.

in the case of possession, im afraid thats the exception n not the standard...even of all the reports, somethin of like 95% or more can be explained by neurological disorders....u hv to realise back when medical knowledge was very limited & the church ruled most everything...any behavior out of the norm was subject to being labeled possession, so much that even the church took only a handfull credibly. of the few that could not be explained, i cant really say what they are/arent capable of (im speaking of in terms of free will) since iv nvr experienced that. but like i said its a VERY RARE exception.

well well looks like you were wrong Pendulum :) assumption will get you every time.. there's no way of knowing how many people in history have been posessed, but it is known that possesion is real. which shows that Saton and his minions have more power then just temptation. which was the point in my response.

possesion is the main proof that GOD and satan exist Dagon. there's being possesed by good, and there's being possesed by evil. in a lot of those cases wether the person is possesed by good or evil, they speak in ancient languages that theyve never even heard spoken. now skeptics can always claim they have a reasonable explanation for everything, but there's just too many credible people that have experienced possesion first hand either by being possesed, or by being on hand when someone else is possesed.

like ive said before.. i don't just believe.. i know!

lol i know what u ment :) for me it sucks to know what i know, and still not be able to convince some people of the truth because it does matter! there is evil in the world and its very dangerous, but i guess until people experience it first hand for there self they have no way of knowing just how horrible it is.

it can be defeated though!

And syz do you really not agree that most  (not everyone but most) people are born into their certain religion ?


I disagree with you too, Dagon. It's pretty dumb to say it's beyond our comprehension. Didn't you post one time that you have a ridiculously high iq? True genius comes from creativity. A high iq doesnt mean much when you don't think outside the box. If everyone thought like that then we would still be stabbing **** with sticks. Why do you think it's beyond our comprehension?

I only think so because imo humans are not capable of understanding any other concept than the space-time. Not fully. We can just think of something, but you cannot prove something, that's from a completely different concept, in our reality.
 
It's only my thoughts about the subject, since I'm really interested, and I read a lot about it.
I'm not saying we will be stuck with what we have now, I'm just saying I don't think humans are capable (or meant to) understand the beginning of the universe fully.

Nah, I don't agree. I got your post, I just wanted you to elaborate more. One thing I like to do is sit outside and listen to a podcast about a particular subject such as this while smoking cigs and pause the lecture and try to picture exacty what they are saying and come up with my own theories. It's fun. Right now it's looking like the multiverse theory is the way to go in my opinion

Um no, by him acknowledging eve as an example means that my interpretation of his post is still correct, remember syzygy, i used the phrase "talking about" which means my replies were based on intuition.

lol spoken like a true academic! Its right though not to simply accept something on face value. True understanding comes from interrogating the information you have. Then you construct your own truth/reality.

Villn thats because they seem to have stopped b****in and gone back to arguing with intellect. Everyone has their own model of "the truth" aka reality so there will always be disagreements. We can ONLY speculate as to what we will find in the future and, I agree with Tuna to some extent, that man will find the answer eventually. The IF is IF we are still alive (I wont say IF the universe ends before we do cos as Dagon says time-space is how we see it but it may not be a universal concept). Also Dagon what did you mean when you said  "I don't think humans are capable (or meant to) understand the beginning of the universe fully." Not meaning to be a smartass im just curious but it implies that the universe is somehow deliberately codified and its secrets are guarded from mankind. So who/what is meant to understand the beginning of the universe fully?

The "meant to" was for every religious person on here, I guess if you believe in god you could say we humans are not meant to understand the beginning of the universe fully, only our creator (god?) is capable of that. That's IF there is a creator.

See u do have a heart lol and it looks like u guys are finally making progress by accepting that your viewpoint isn't the definitive one. Also you need to consider whether or not God has control of the universe (clearly this is tenuous as all things in heaven and earth does not include Satan's domain and gives an explanation as evil being the opposing force of good) or simply a being that succumbs to its laws as we do (which gives u more food for thought - ouch!). I agree its puzzling that a being can self-create and then create a space in which life can thrive. However its equally puzzling that a universe can suddenly be created and the laws in which bodies operate somehow occur at the same time.
If you apply scientific reason to what we know then you will see that scientists agree that the universe is ordered and obeys rules/laws. Its NOT random and unpredictable as in something that has no purpose, something that simply IS. So why order and NOT chaos? I'm not expecting u to give me an answer as science only explains these natural laws NOT their origins. its just a compelling argument why the belief in God isn't as ridiculous as it seems. The number of scientists who do not dispel the concept of a creator is surprisingly high.

already 13+ trillion in debt and Obama thinks its ok to go even further in debt? US tax payers paying interest on 13+ trillion is obserd, and can't be sustained even by a wealthy country like the US especially with the constant government growth. any intelligent person has to come to the conclusion that at best agenda is being put over whats best for the country, and at worse they want this country's economy to callapse. Nov. 2012 needs to get here real quick or we all better start learning to speak Chinese.

Tim Pawlenty is the obvious choice for our next president, but i doubt that he will be pushed as the front runner until its absolutely necessary because once the opposition learns who the front runner is they will focus all there money and effort on him. its just smart polotics.

in the mean time i suggest that everyone start buying a little farm land to grow your own food, and buy a few bicycles :) do the math.

While the world of the very large seems this way, the world of the very small, explained by the standard model, is inherently random. #quantum probability clouds #Heisenburg's uncertainty principle #weak nuclear force

The world around us simply exists, and we abstract meaning, purpose, truth, etcetera from that inherent meaninglessness - from, as Camus would say, the #absurd.
