I don't like paraphrasing others (but I'll make an exception for Kafka); beliefs are like guillotines, just as heavy, just as light.
It works both ways.

I vote for E.
If you have to ask the reason why, then the answer is already lost.

You sure baby? That is interesting though, I assume ACR means that as something symbolic, or god speaks to him all the time through prayer, or things he sees/feels. Because if you mean literal talking to prophet type stuff, I'd say ACR you need to get your head checked, or we're in the presence of the savior of our time! I still am completely unsure, I always am hovering in some gray area between agnostic and deist...the problem usually being semantics. This is why I like to go with extreme agnostic. I ain't just unsure, I am 100% absolutely sure I am unsure |

Oh come on, me whispering things to you in your sleep does not make me a God. I personally, voted C, though it's somewhere between C and D. According to MY rationality and logic, I don't see how the existence of higher deity makes sense. With that, I don't trust mine or anyone's rationality as a correct rationality. Moreover, I just don't care. I really really really really don't care. It's a useless question to ask, in the end.

You can't put an s on the end of a number like that. Honestly, some people.

Yes, I read that Cracked article. I'll post it so people can read it. It's mostly bullsh*t, sorry. This author seems to think that just because people do something wrongly for a long period of time automatically makes the mistake right. Historically, that's true sometimes. Just because people misuse words for a long time doesn't make it proper- it only makes it proper in their linguistic milieu. The author of that article took one form of English and said, "This is correct in all versions of English" and he is ridiculously wrong. Grammar and usage is (supposed) to make communication as clear as possible; misusing words very often works against the communicator and the intended message. The writer then made the Linguistics 101 black and white distinction between descriptivism and prescriptivism, which is stupid. Both are right, but neither one absolutely. Language is Silly Putty. We can mold it as we like it, but we cannot turn it into a living bird or a stack of $100s. |

My head hurts a lot. I voted for E. I liked that one the best. Where's F? I love the idea of God, even if I don't believe in it. I want my mom to believe in God. She's calmer and happier when she does.

At the comedy festival last night during Axis Of Awesome, the band said they were going to do an offensive song about religion but just to check, was anybody really religious there and if you love God/religion, MAKE SOME NOISE! To my surprise, there was a total, dead, silence. After several seconds, literally two people (I could see them from my table) started clapping. The keyboardist said sneeringly "Well there's always a couple" and then they carried on. But it made me think how much progress NZ is making regarding religion. Sure it was only a comedy audience (comedy fans tend to be less serious about things like religion for obvious reasons) of about 500 or maybe more. (It was a room in the town hall and it was full.) But the band could've done the same thing almost anywhere in America and gotten a huge roar.

Oh come on, it's not as if Epignosis ever follows people around criticising them for not using words correctly. "Do unto others" and all that, he lives by such credo.
