What's a god?
God is that part of your self that is more you than you are yourself.

The law should be about protecting society not punishing people for emotional reasons just like the ones that do a crime. Only religion can come up with freewill and justifying retribution for sin.
Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour. <-2>Proverbs ch.14 v.9<0>

Take it with a grain of salt, they also have invisible friends so to lecture us on what we presume is absurd.
absurd? You really think so.

the idea of there not being a god is not even a possibility, like breathing. And so when they are confronted by someone who doesn't believe, they either think the person is playing a joke on them, or trying to wind them up, and some even react like a cornered animal at such a differing aspect. Its
I believe animals are an order of consciousness below the mortal, but still embraced by the Sentient Divine.

Faisal, I noticed you didn't bother to make an introduction page, instead you just made an account and appear to be preaching. We get a lot of chumps coming here doing that, so they've been banned just as quickly, so unless you have anything rational to talk about, or at least stop trying to draw attention to yourself with different colored text, you should go elsewhere.

So either introduce yourself like a normal person and say what it is you want to do here, or use the door.

Depends on what you mean by "the Divine".  If it's a god of any sort, then it is incompatible by definition.
Humans have all sorts of notions of the Divine that seem fantastical to me.

Why do you think I should move elsewhere?

That's absurd.  Any part of myself is as much myself as any other part of myself is to myself.

Are you trying to say that your god is you?

didn't your mother ever tell you its rude not to introduce yourself to others? I'll regard your question when you make that introduction. Here, I'll even provide the link.

All you seem to have done so far is spout nonsense.   Did you have something constructive to add?

Let's wager, shall we?

Over/Under on number of posts before Failsel is banned.  The line is 40.

I say less than 40.

I'll say.. hmm, under 40. He might get over it if he makes that intro and starts talking like a person rather then a robotic preacher, but we're see.

I don't think he will do the intro, and if he does it will be filled with same nonsensical blather.

Faisal:
1) Make a thread on the introduction area.
2) If you have evidence for god, there is a thread for that.
3) If you do not have evidence for god, none of us are stupid enough to just believe in one.

I know, I guess I'm just curious, if though all the preaching like his kind does, if they even have the smallest hint of civility to know when to be polite at least.
