I always was dumbfounded how/why people believe in modern times. People continue to pray while there has been no creditable study ever done that shows that there is any effect from doing so. As I said before... If the monotheisic personable god were to exist s/he could only be one of three possibilities. 1) powerless 2) abscent or 3) evil. 11 million people exterminated by Hitler's Germany God was your pic 1, 2, or 3?

I can see how someone could beleive in a god and I can debate with them. But I can't understand how someone could beleive in religion and it's pointless to debate with them. In my opinion, Religion has kidnapped the words "belief & spiritual". I call myself a spiritual atheist. Religious people say how can you be a spiritual atheist. I say how can you be a spiritual religious person. I am spiritual because I beleive that all things are connected and related. That you and I are related and share some connection with the trees, rocks, etc. Religion says, not just are we right and you are wrong, but if you don't see it are way you will burn in hell or we are gods chosen people (so you then are not?) How spiritual does that sound? Belief is an "open" word. I use it all the time. "I believe this forum is great." I just said two things 1) My opinion of this forum and 2) that I am an open person willing to debate it. How ever if I said "this forum is great"... I'm saying my opinion plus that I'm a closed person and if you say the contrary you will be talking to a wall.

If there was a personal monotheistic god. Believers like to give all the credit and none of the blame to god. Evil man for all the bad and good god for all the good (kind of the opposite of a referee). Using logic, s/he could be only one of three possibilities... 1) evil 2) absent or 3) powerless. God is a make believe friend for grown ups. I consider myself a spiritual atheist.

The pam 029 has been my every day watch since I go her. Only when I dress up or go out at night do I put on one of my other Pams with a strap. If you got the pam 029 with the eta 2892 you got a top 3 all time rep.
