A statement of where he stands isn't an attempt to convert, though.[/quote][quote name="youngwolf"]Just because HE doesn't believe in god, doesn't mean that we all don't have to.
college biology bro. They teach that we came from the same things apes came from. NOT that we came from apes. Hence why there are still apes. Bio teaches that we actually originated form fish. It shows how, with time lapse and conditions, that the particular fish grew limbs.
They still speak of neanderthals and homo erectus, homo habilis, but that isn't quite the ideal that is being taught outright anymore.
No. I wasn't talking about faith but specifically addressing that atheists will find their religion when their lives get crazy enough.If fear is driving your reasons for belief and is apart of your reasoning for why non-believers will eventually become believers I really want no part of something like that.Maybe atheists are afraid because the have no backup?
Things get crazy enough in their lives, they'll find their religion.
i think you misunderstood what that comment was in reference to. Faith has nothing to do with fear.

You understand that ALSO is contradictory to the bible right?

Like I said if you need fear to start believing in anything or for your life to be in turmoil and on hard times so you're in a state where you're not thinking clearly and need a crutch that's not something I want to even slightly be associated with. It's a sham.No. I wasn't talking about faith but specifically addressing that atheists will find their religion when their lives get crazy enough.If fear is driving your reasons for belief and is apart of your reasoning for why non-believers will eventually become believers I really want no part of something like that.Maybe atheists are afraid because the have no backup?

meaning they'll find something to believe in, not necessarily God per se, but whatever God would be to them. Usually starts off 'Now I know I don't come to you, and I can understand if you don't answer, but I can really use your help' or something to that effect. People look for hope in times of peril.
dude, I'm not arguing with you guys. We're having a conversation, only fools have a conversation and completely ignore the other side. I observe science as much as the bible. Yes, science in many ways contradicts the bible. Bible says there was no evolution, and Adam was spoken from the lips of God into existence. I didnt say I believed we evolved from fish, or at all, I was simply respnding to the comment, if we didn't evolve from primates, then where. As a skilled debater and just for personal understanding, one must observe and understand both sides. The law of the land respects facts and science. I dig that. I do too. But I believe in God. I feel like I've seen miracles. A miracle is simply something that seems impossible, but happens anyways. I see those everyday.
Imagine if I used God for every answer on every test in all of my chem and bio classes lmaoo. 'What keeps plants green?' 'God b"

Faith has nothing to do with fear.[/quote]I think he understood it perfectly, the way it was originally presented. Both of the parts I pointed out contradict each other. First you were coming from a place that states religion is based on fear and struggle, then you made a statement that religion has nothing tio do with fear.[/quote][quote name="Freeze"][quote name="Master Zik"][quote name="Freeze"]Maybe atheists are afraid because the have no backup?

SLANDERED?![quote name="OGMCMXCII"]Look how they slandered/treated Tim Tebow the only dude I respect in the league for being a true believer....
It was implied.
Sounds like he's just speaking his opinion, he's not forcing anyone to accept it.
