The thing that bothers me most about religion [Christianity in particular] is that no success is my own. All of the years of practice, training, and experience don't make me good at what I do; God does. It's not the coaches and teammates; it's God. It's not the teachers, tutors, and professors; it's God.
No, motherfucker. I worked hard for this shit. This is mine. You can't take it away from me.
I think you simply don't realize how it works.
>God creates everything
>People use what God created to do things for themselves and others
>People achieve things with what they created
>Thank God for allowing it all to be possible
Nobody is saying you didn't earn anything, nobody is saying that you or your teachers and friends and family didn't do anything to make whatever was achieved possible. All it is, is that God made it possible for it all to happen.
Sorry, but this argument always bugs me.
See, that's the problem. If God created everything, I am forever indebted to him for something he didn't have a hand in. It seems no different than the mob requiring business owners to pay "protection" fees. A portion of the business's earnings go to the mob even though the mob did nothing to earn it.
Except God isn't going to cripple you for not giving thanks to him. It's a courtesy, a humble acknowledgement, not a bill to pay.
So we're going to ignore the punishment of hell?
But Max, god lets you into heaven if you say you're sorry.
Unless you killed yourself over being in a bad situation that you had no help in.
Then fuck you.
Wut
If you kill someone and go to confession, say 3 hail marys and two our fathers and repent that way - If my understanding of catholic doctrine is correct you are forgiven those sins and can get into heaven if you have your last rites read.
If you commit suicide, you go to hell (Also according to catholic doctrine) as it's considered a mortal sin. This fails to take into account that it's not free will that leads people to choose suicide (In most cases) but is either a combination of an inescapable situation or mental illness.
So if the catholics are right, what kind of god punishes the weak and the ill but forgives the wicked?
What if the Mormons are the only ones that are right?
Dude, the Catholics have always been weird, don't blame us for them. Why anyone would expect a bunch of crazed Italians to get anything done right is beyond me.
...but you're still all Christians.

When somebody is actually intelligent and knows that religion is a joke and that god is not real, and somebody calls them "edgy" or says something equally retarded like that, they are actually just trolling, right?
...your joking, right?
Yes. Her joking.

Have a snickers.
Jesus threads turn you into Bill Maher.
I'm sorry you think that differing points of view mean we're being unreasonable and childish, as in the Snickers commercial

There's no point in having a separate Serious forum when no one actually takes it seriously. And I already know what you guys are going to say to this, but just because I post opinions that I don't always agree with doesn't mean I'm shitposting. It's shitposting when you start typing "LOLOLOLOL" and other stupid shit in all caps as well as all the countless insults everyone throws around there.

Why would there be heat and fire in hell when those are God's creations? Wouldn't hell be separation from God?
Why wouldn't there be? God created all things, which means he created hell, too. Why would he punish those he created and outright says, many times, that he loves them all, from the wicked to the good? And what of the people God has killed? If a hell were to exist, then it would have to be completely void of God's creation How do you arrive at this conclusion?

Tfw Ford is beating Ferrari
The thread isn't "best car manufacturer" it's "most iconic"
And Ford is nowhere near being the best
I don't disagree.

Ah that's cool <.<
Although an interactive Rhino exhibit sounds quite... risky... .-.
I got to feed/pet a Zebra at a safari park once, that was quite memorable because normally they are skittish as hell >.>
lol. the rhino exhibit was just feeding it. you didn't like, walk around with it or ride it.

I guess it depends on what makes something iconic.
Impact on the automobile industry? Ford.
Biggest application? Jeep [WWII]
Most recognizable? VW
Most sought-after? Ferrari, most likely
When you think most iconic, what do you immediately think of
..that's my point. There isn't a singular iconic manufacturer.

why do they complain about having to pay for a babysitter?
Cause being a parent is a job that doesn't pay too well.
Being a parent doesn't pay at all because being a parent isn't a job.

You can't. The only way to do so is if you marked your threads with a unique tag and then browse by that tag.

I might argue that it's VW. The VW Bug and VW Bus are probably the most recognizable cars in auto history.

I'd never trust a babysitter.
Because you're paranoid that they're stealing your weed?
Maybe if he stopped smoking so much weed, he'd be less paranoid.

Considering that, among other things, they'd be almost 30 years younger than me - no.

People forget that the guy that first proposed the big bang theory was a monk
I thought he was just a priest?
Oh, you're right.
In more depressing news, when Googling "Big Bang theory", the first two pages of results are almost entirely for that cesspool of a show.
I don't blame them. People, in general, are much more likely to discuss the show than the science. Just modify your search terms to clarify

I don't think much of it. I don't think you're automatically a hero, or thank you for your service. In all likelihood, you didn't do anything important.
I see a lot of military members as making poor choices. Getting married and having kids at a young age, many before they have anything more than a high school education or plan for civilian life.
I also find it funny how conservative many military members are, when their paycheck and benefits are funded by the taxpayers.

Kids are shit I hate kids. Also being a parent isn't a job. Plus anyone that complains about paying for a babysitter is retarded and should have their child taken away.
hear hear
