I Love this thread Idea! Elvis Presley "If I can Dream" There must be lights burning brighter somewhere Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue If I can dream of a better land Where all my brothers walk hand in hand Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dream come true There...

What a long and detailed conversation one person's thoughts can lead to. :) I think the point here is more that as long as your actions are not hurting others, no one has the right to judge you or your beliefs and tell you they are wrong. Everyone is allowed his or her own differing(sp)...

Mooskee, I'm not sure if I'm understanding you correctly, don't we already, as a general society, have a collective assumption of what is "right and wrong"?

Thx Luna!

It's Elvis Presley Day! Everyone please take a moment to remember the awesome sprit and life that Elvis gave to the world throughout his life, and help us continue the great things that are being done in his memory. Long reign the King!:cool: (I'm not sure if this is the right location for a...

Sorry y'all, I know this thread is a little old, but I had to bring it up! K, fav funny quote: "The journey of a 1000 miles begins with a leaky tire and a broken fan belt." Fav thoughtful quote: "I'm better than no one, and no one is better than me." And last but not least! Fav Elvis(about...

Most of the names I was curious about have been explained here already, but I'm still curious about lunamoth. I'm worried I might simply be missing some species of moth named Luna, :confused: lol, but I was curious if there was anything more to this name? Thx!

I'm sorry, but you've lost me. How can you state that: And then and not contridict yourself? :confused: Surely if we atheists can not prove that there is no god, just as you can not prove that there is, then we are taking our own beliefs in faith the same as you. We have no hard proof...

Thanks Juan!

Thanks Fifth! I've never heard that view of it before, but it does make some sense from a religious perspective. I had a brother tell me once that, since as an atheist I don't believe in god, it was a good thing he(his god) was understanding and forgiving, other wise I would be damned.lol I'll...

I have to agree with you Jeff, Human nature is the "evil". In good people, money would be used for good things and possibly help others, whereas in greedy people, money is used simply to benifit themselves and their own wealth. I don't see money as the problem, I think the problem is the nature...

Sorry to jump in the thread late, but I'm still not understanding how not believing in a god makes us(atheist) shallow? There are "shallow" and "deep" people in all aspects of life. How can not believing in something classifiy us as shallow? Personaly, I feel most atheists are not shallow, as it...

Some people fear what they do not understand. Others assume that you cannot be happy unless you are exactly like them. Even more accept that the differences among us are what make the world interesting. You seem to simply come across the the middle group more often.

Accepting what you said as different is okay, however what kind of world would it be like if everyone thought that way . We would not have any justice if anyone did whatever they believed was right . There seems to be a somewhat internal belief that we all have a right to live in peace but if...

Mooskee, I'm not sure if your aware, but in lieu of hijacking this thread, Awaiting the Fifth has started a new thread called personal beliefs that continues this topic. I'll reply to your post there. http://www.comparative-religion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3504 Please join us! LIFE, I'm...

Great point fifth! If we don't follow the the beliefs in our hearts, than what else are we to follow?

Juan, Thx for your reply. A question has arisen from your writings and I wondered, do you assume that man is naturally evil? I think that this opinion of man is what leads to the different opinions were seeing as to whether or not morality comes from a god concept.(that is the question here...

I'm sure I'll be sorry for sticking my neck out here, but I have to say that as an Atheist i can deifinatly see the consequences of my actions without any consequence from a "god". If i do something Illegal, I go to court. If I stand in the street during rush hour, I'll probably be hit by a car...

Thanks so much for starting this thread Fifth! I so wanted to continue this conversation with you guys! I honestly do believe that if you believe something with all your heart to be true, then that is what is right for you. No, that does not mean I advocate murder, rape, or anything that...

Yes Mooskee, I am saying that even if someone believes that Satanism is right for them, then they should follow that belief. You should always follow what you believe in, not just because others do. I'm not advocating blind faith, by all means please learn all you can about something before you...
