Think about the last time you drove when there was little chance of being observed by a traffic cop. Was it that difficult?<br

You keep making this stuff up about me - I've never lied about anything I posted. So stop doing that. Your grammar is a real problem and it is a fact - you can't say I made it up, it's all true. One only has to read any post of yours to see it. Anyway, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I agree with you that no one knows if his re-baptism was for real or not: (for the record, before i continue, ONLY GOD KNOWS if dahmer meant his "repentance", or it was nothing more than attempting to "cover...

ridge rightfully publically aknowledged your "innocent act" as to your motivation at times given the subject matter. never said dahmer was an 'atheist'. i just made the accurate notation given the only facts that are known about him that he went to church because of his parents till he was 5. never said he didn't take 'religion' out for a test drive prior to his dirt nap. he acted like an atheist from 5 on, but NO ONE KNOWS his 'beliefs' after 5.<br...

I wasn't going to bother with your ridiculous crap but here's what I asked tenaj, for clarification: "Are you thinking that he (Dahmer) didn't believe in God?" He was either an atheist or did believe in God. I read NOTHING that said he was an atheist. I'm not omitting anything. If you find a quote somewhere that says he was an atheist, post a link here. I'll gladly add that information to what I already said. You know, I don't shoot you down for every... [ More ]

just another act from you. i know your consistent biased motivations, and that gives me the ability to read thru lines most people gloss over. you purposefully used the word "member", to imply something more solid, and therefore it piggybacked your slimey move the dude was never a member pre, or post heinous. it's these little methodology buzzwords guys like you use to make an underhanded claim when it ISN'T THERE. did he employ something "r...

Here's the quote: "After being imprisoned for his crimes, Dahmer sought out the church of his childhood and petitioned to be re-baptized in the Church of Christ. This caused some controversy, but he persisted until he was able receive this rite, which he was apparently sincere in requesting. Shortly after being re-baptized into the Church of Christ, Dahmer was murdered by his cellmate. " Is anyone religious like you? Nope - I don't know anyone like you. Was Dahmer religiou... [ More ]

another "fair statement" from true critic. just how 'religious' IS a 5year old in the cementation of their OWN belief systems at that age (5) ? he was a "member" huh? probably tithed his piggy bank and pokey mon cards in order to be a "member" in good standing as a child, dahmer "attended" at the behest of his parents, UNTIL he was 5, after which he did not attend anymore, and if you google his life's chronoILLOGICAL story, his family unit disintegrated...

I figure you mean, Jeffry Dahmer? Are you thinking that he didn't believe in God? Jeffrey Dahmer was religious, as a member of the Stone-Campbell denomination known as the Church of Christ. He requested to be baptised while serving his sentence and was later beaten to death by his cellmate.

Then i know successful people who do not believe in God and use the bad spiritual laws and they are the ones that take, take, take, kill, kill, kill with morals or remorse. You can be a Jeffrey Damer 100 times over and exercise the spiritual law of grace - it will come to you.

A while back I posted a similar video to the one in the link above. I don't believe that whole Moses story anyways, and like Christopher Hitchens points out, no evidence has ever been found. But for argument's sake, even If it did happen, are people to believe that prior to the Exodus headed by Moses to Mount Sinai and the ten commandments, folks thought it was OK to kill humans, or steal etc...? It's simply absurd.... [ More ]

Without God, how can you be moral?

by Fred Edwords

There is a tendency on the part of many theists to assume that the burden of proof is on the nontheist when it comes to the issue of morality. Thus, the individual who operates without a theological base is asked to justify his so doing the assumption of the theist being that no morality is possible in the absence of some form of 'higher' law...
