Your Religion

[Gods_Mercenary]

I really don't see the points we're supposed to be debating,

"I am the prophet of the great heavenly ball of creme cheese" Prove me wrong!

[pikatore]

Here's another one.

Traditional Islam and democracy cannot co-exist.

You really believe that?

[pikatore]

You say this about atheism:

But [is it] anything more than [an] intellectual [construct] without spiritual authority?

What the hell is that supposed to mean?!

[Gods_Mercenary]

Then niether can fundementalist christianity and hinduism, caste system isn't exactly equality.

[pikatore]

"Coincidences are indeed the small miracles that God performs anonymously"?

Well that means that God made me wake up in bed after a drunken night at a random house party next to a girl who wasnt just in my class group, but not one I'd get with while sober to be as nice as possible. Thanks god!

[pikatore]

Wait! I'm so sorry! The High and Almightly One has come to me! I saw.... an ostrich with a top hat, doing a tap dance on the top of mount olympus, and his army of evil ostrices!! The demise as of humankind as we know it! They will invade in the year 2324, also symbolically relevant to the number of grams that my breakfast weighed last week.

Crazy, you say? I'm crazy?

Either they are branded crazy or heretics. Yet the world moves on the words of prophets.

And by the way, arielmessenger is the false prophet! I'm the true one! pick me!

[notworthabean]

blah this areil messenger person is crazy-but she seems luna lovegood crazy not charlie manson crazy so let her be. she can be our pet prophet.

[arielmessenger]

I expect all you Volconvos to be human shields for me when I go back to Israel and confront the Muslims with this new revelation.

I've been invited back to Nazareth for their annual Easter procession where Pax was honored by over 500 Nazareans. Pax is on display now there in the Church of St. Mary as the first religious icon of the 21st Century. But I don't think I can make the Easter date but perhaps later on in the year.

This is an opportunity for sceptics to see how such religious events transpire to make a new religion come into being. None of us may live to see this but it is in motion now, affecting not only my life but many others, family and friends, Pals and Lakota, not an everyday occurrence.

It doesn't do anyone any good to try to tear this movement down with ideologies that never have been able to persuade religionists away from their beliefs in centuries of trying. Whole nations forced to become atheists eventually throw off their oppressors and re-establish their religious connections because you can't stop the Spirit. It runs the world whether people know this or not.

[pikatore]

We all came here to debate, not preach. Save the crazy talk for those who want to hear it.

A ridiculous statement to make.

A lot of atheists aren't atheists because they were oppressed to be so, they are atheists because they CHOOSE to be so.

You can't re-establish a religious connection if you never had one to begin with.


omg... the craziness..

Quote by: arielmessenger In some instances, yes, I do predict future events, e.g. I am predicting the demise of several traditional religions (and atheism!) due to historical discovery and science overturning cherished mythologies. But seeing this in our lifetimes is not something I can say will take place. I believe Israel will fold and a new Republic of Canaan will eventually replace it and "Palestine". In one of my earliest visions I happened to predict the now verified theory that birds are direct descendants from the dinosaurs. Please go to Original Biomystical Religious Experience and scroll down to the revelations section. This account btw, contains for me evidence that Muhammad, while getting many things wrong, was truly inspired by God. He, like me, sweated a great deal when the revelations came to him in mystical communion. I go into a kind of "fugue state" its called whenever a major religious visionary period strikes me. I have witnesses to this phenomena who can verify it having seen me in such periods and seeing the resultant new revelations. And like Muhammad, I am convinced an angel of God is guiding me, Ariel the Angel of Peace, the Angel of Jerusalem. (see Isaiah 29) Here are some more general prophesies from my online book, Biomystical Christianity. Please go to Paxman Prophesies

I am going to start a thread for discussing your visions, so as not to derail this one.

Please participate, I find this fascinating.

I am predicting the demise of several traditional religions (and atheism!) due to historical discovery and science overturning cherished mythologies.

All it would take to invalidate atheism is credible evidence of gods or a god. I'd love to know what sort of historical discovery would accomplish that. I'm also curious which myths are being investigated scientifically. Hard science isn't concerned with disproving mythologies.

You should be sufficiently realistic to understand that there will be many skeptical of such claims. Claims made without support will be met with skepticism by more than just atheists.

[pikatore]

Skepticism is a nice way of putting it.

[Apotheosis]

I was of course raised Catholic. A few years ago, I eventually got seriously into the occult, as well as various forms of demonology. Eventually after I learned that religion in all it's forms seem like bullshit, I started calling myself Agnostic...I still particularly align with what you can call Apathetic Agnosticism....but in truth even Agnosticism has it's flaws. Today, when asked what religion I follow, I simply respond with "None at all."

[Masoom]

The main question what religion am i from?

Islam, i am a proud Muslim.

[Osborn F Enready]

Nice to meet you.

I am a proud agnostic.

Now keep your god on your side of the fence.

See ya after the neighborhood soccer match.....


(see how easy that is)

Are you accepting worshipers at this time?

If you can also do extra duty as the prophet of the great heavenly Boston Cream Pie... I will be your #1 follower!

Did you ever have any success in contacting demons?
