You can't handle the truth!
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
This post says "Jeff7 knows the only way to truth. This post is true."
It's just as valid a statement.
We will all know the truth once we die. Unfortunately for most people, even after being repeatedly told, will not be prepared for the truth.
Unless death brings....you know....
death. Dead = brain is dead = neurons stop processing information = consciousness stops = nothing is "known" anymore, because your memories and consciousness are permanently gone. Entropy's a bitch. :awe:
Yep, he's just stiring the shit pot. The sad part is there are A LOT of people who believe it. People who make decisions about how your kids should be educated. You don't even need to read scientific papers on evolution. All you have to do is look at other great apes to see we're related to them. They look like us, they behave similar to us. It's directly observable yet people want to dilusion themselves that a magic space god zapped the earth and stuck a dude naked in a garden. Incidentally, that also means we're all the product of incest. Isn't the bible cool.
I think someone on TV was talking about religion, and said that a lot of people go through a "questioning" period as they grow up, where they start to question their faith. My first thought was, "Yeah, that's when their brain finally starts doing some real critical analysis of their religion, and parts of it start to say 'This stuff is
really wacked out,' but other parts of it like the security that the religious teachings can bring, even if they're largely the product of ancient people's ideas of how the world worked."
