Evolution or Creator

[Ryo of Inferno]

Just to clear some stuff up:
1. All atheists are not selfish and conceited.
2. Atheists have values too.
3. Believing in a god makes you no better than anyone else.

There's nothing I hate more than Christians going around saying that they are better than everyone else and steryotyping. You know, I could say that all of you Christians are stupid for playing with your imaginary friend up in the sky, but it's not right. Why do you seem to think that all atheists are bad people? It doesn't mean that we aren't good people, too. We just choose not to believe in a god. And I still don't see why wanting to buy nice stuff and being a bit horny makes me a bad person...

That also upsets me, most Christians I have met were like that. Now heres an interesting

question. Lets say there is a God, lets also suppose that only one religion is right, How

would you tell which one is the true one? Especially since over the years words, stories,

etc. can be misconstrued. You see Balthier, even if the Bible is "the word of God," some

people might not accept that as true. Different people, religions, tribes and soforth have

different moral values. There is even a tribe somewhere in Africa that believes it has a

moral obligation to lie, murder, cheat, and steal. To convince someone something is true

you can't browbeat them. You must first understand their view whether atheist, hindu or

what not and go from there. Also Onizuka there are two answers to your question. Buying

nice stuff doesn't make you a bad person. However it is a caution for Christians not to

focus solely on their material possessions and be willing to give them up to help someone

if God so wills it. Now the horny part (hope I'm reading the context right) is a

misconception daying back to the times of Ancient Greece. If you want a further

explanation of how and why that came to be, let me know and I'll put it in my next post as

this might otherwise become too long.
