As in all animals...some have a tendency to be additional suseptable to instinctual habits and time and time again, this breed tends to accomplish just that.

Comment on How to Disprove the Existence of “God” by SHawking http://www.stateofprotest.com/religion/how-to-disprove-god/#comment-13803 SHawking Thu, 11 Mar 2010 01:54:40 +0000 http://www.stateofprotest.com/?p=338#comment-13803 If you are Christian/believe in a "god", then why are you posting on a page titled "how to disprove god?" Just so you could bring about your bad spelling and nonsense. God has been disproved years ago, because of the discovery of Neanderthals and, simply, life before humans. According to the bible (and I may be a little wrong, if so please feel free to correct) God created everything, and the Earth. He then made Adam and Eve, and then they started the race of man, and then the Satan stuff happened. Uh, I am sorry, but how could god create Adam and Eve, when dinosaurs were here WAY before any other sign of any type of Homo Sapiens appeared on the planet. There are also planets and star systems forming RIGHT AS WE SPEAK. How did god create everything if things are being created even now on their own? And to your "prayer" argument, either god is not real or he is a heartless bastard and doesn't give a fuck, because when I was younger, and prayed to god for people in the world to get better, and for family members to get better when they were sick, nothing happened. The only reason people believe in the abomination known as christianity is because their parents force it upon them. If my parents had forced religion upon me, I would surely not be typing this right now, and would definitely not have the free thought that I have right now. It is about as ridiculous as santa claus, or the easter bunny. I know that this will not make you come to your senses, because you have already been made close minded enough to block out all other possibilities except for christianity.

Comment on Premonitions by ARJAY http://www.stateofprotest.com/religion/premonitions/#comment-13791 ARJAY Sat, 27 Feb 2010 05:18:46 +0000 http://www.stateofprotest.com/?p=714#comment-13791 I am a high schooler in the state of North Carolina. I am in tenth grade and i've had several premonitions/deja vu's since around the time i was in 8th grade. This may just be a thread of crazy people but i need help or atleast to tell someone who might believe me. I believe that these premonitions may be related to a head trauma (more or less) that i received in a unfortunate accident while on a camping trip in eighth grade. Since then i have had recurring dreams that get clearer and clearer everytime i see them day or night until i actually see the finished product unfold before my real eyes. if anyone can provide information or sources regarding head trauma/brain damage/mental illness in correlation with frequent premonition/deja vu please reply to this comment or let me know quickly. thank you, ARJAY I am a high schooler in the state of North Carolina.

Maybe it has something to do with your host. I just thought from site owner to site owner I would warn you of this problem so you don't miss out on potential subscribers! If it still works for you have a friend try it, could be blocking external connections. I like your content on your website, but it appears as though your RSS feed is getting a 404 error?

Comment on How to Disprove the Existence of “God” by Troy http://www.stateofprotest.com/religion/how-to-disprove-god/#comment-13767 Troy Tue, 16 Feb 2010 22:04:06 +0000 http://www.stateofprotest.com/?p=338#comment-13767 Procrustes, Have we become so arrogant to think we are able to answer all question, on all matters, that exist in our finite reality! Yes, human beings (in general), believe we can ,(or will have the ability at some later date), to answer all questions. This is absurd !! If we can't prove "something" by mathmatics, physics, etc..., than it cannot possibly be true. Again, this is absurd !! Human's will always feel we lack some understanding of the self and our existence. We cannot understand the void within all of us. The nothing within ourselves. The nothing that is part of every atom. The nothing that is part of every molecule. The nothing which escapes perception. Until "anyone" can answer the question of "what is nothing", we will continue to come back to what we as individuals subjectively believe. Scientists and Theologians will continue to go round and round. Some scientists and philosophers define "True nothing" as that immeasurable, zero-energy, non-existent thing that did not exist before the universe, and all the space in it, came into existence. Well, the obvious question is how did existence come from non-existence, or the age old question, how do you get something from nothing. Great thinkers have gone insane trying to answer the unanswerable. Look up Georg Cantor, Ludwig Boltzmann, Friedrich Nietzsche, Kurt Gödel. I believe God is one of those "things" we do not have the ability to fathom. Infinitude cannot be logically understood. I thoroughly enjoy these discussions but believe they are, in the end, futile. If this analysis was really about rejecting religion and not God, then I believe you have erred. Religion is a byproduct of belief in a God who gives us moral understanding. If we (the created) take that byproduct and manipulate it in immoral ways, that is not the fault of God but is the fault of the free willed human. Procrustes,

A friend of mine is considering getting themselves a new cbr 1000 as their first bike! Never rode much of anything else before!
