Ok check this out. Some scientist now think that there are
more than one universe. That there are millions of
universes, and at the begingin sorta a mother universe
producing all these other universes. And that laws dont
exist in the mother universe, for example there is no time ,
cause maybe our universe is the only one that has a law for
time, so anyway the mother unverse cant die, cause there is
no time, now this mother universe could be god or whatever ,
and black holes, there sucking in all this matter ,and after
billions and billions of years, finnaly it builds up anuf
all these planets and stars and solar systems, that it drops
off of the black hole and explodes creating another
universe, and that universe will have the same laws that
this one does, and so on and so forth, so there could be
billions and billions of universes, and it sorta makes me
just wanna look back at it all or get out of this universe
or somthin

I myself do not, I think god is just people's need for an
answer. They cant find one so they make up god and say he is
behind everything so they can have a reason and feel
comforted.

Then why make that god lay down all these prohibitive laws
and preach denial of life?

Not meaning to offend anyone - its late.

my freind has a great argument against the question of
faith:

- imagine you have a freind/relative who is married to the
most devoted amazing person and then that freind/relative
dies with the last mortal thought that, yes, they had found
true true love and on their death bed they were truely happy
with the life they had and wasn't it all just so bloody
marvelous!!
ok .. you leave the funeral thinking 'fuck me, he/she is
dead but, christ they had a great life and i saw them die so
happy.

then you find out that the persons spouse was actually
having an affair and never loved your freind at all but felt
trapped. Wouldn't you say that no matter how fucking happy
your freind died, surely knowing the factual truth about
the reality of who they though they loved
would have been infinitely better for that dting persons
human spirit if they really thought about ut?
....it's a good argument which i kinda agree, sort of
with...

then you find out that his bitch wife actually was sucking
everyones cock for years and just pandered to the

Keyfumbler:

I actually disagree - ignorance in that case I would say is
bliss.

If you had no reason to suspect your wife cheating on you -
and were convinced it was a loving relationship, how could
knowing the ugly truth (ie. your example) make the situation
ANY better? Infact the man would have probably died from a
broken heart?! We all have misconceived ideas of how others
perceive ourselves - if we TRULY knew what everyone else
thought about ourselves (bar those übermenschen amongst us)
our ego would be destroyed, we would have destroyed the very
"i" we have come to know and love?!

I don't think faith can be argued against other than
pointing out that one can't get away from it. I have faith
in grammar, I have faith in the sun rising tomorrow etc.
etc. When it comes down to it, I don't think you can
discriminate between one belief being a true belief and
another mere faith. It's all the same mechanism. Perhaps the
only way out is to be a sceptic, but even so - if that were
your reason for being a sceptic, then you have faith in
being a sceptic for that reason. [trying to apply euclid's
paradox here - ie. undermine faith by faith].

Anyhow.

If someone proved that there was a god..

there would be no such thing as faith.
