I believe the universe didn't just happen by some freak accident.Originally Posted by Zip Goshboots
Is that believing in God?
Rise like Lions after slumber,
In unvanquishable number -
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many - they are few.
When referring to your own beliefs, do you capitalize god?Originally Posted by Pharaoh

UxKa: Yeah I always make it a capital "G" - it's just respectful.
MoTown: Thanks for the warning
And Zip: I don't know where God came from, just like scientists can't explain where the big fucking rock that blew up in the Big Bang came from.
So, how does one believe the scientist who requires proof of everything EXCEPT the origins of this rock?
You might rely on something called "faith", which believers of "God" regularly rely on.
I have no idea if you think I'm some hardcore Christian nut or just some dude looking to discuss the big issues but this is gonna be an interesting discussion because my beliefs aren't set in stone!
I don't have all the answers, I don't have all the info but right now I believe that some power greater than LUCK designed the Universe. If I believe in a design I must therefore believe in a designer, right?
You can call that designer Allah, Joe, God, Jesus or Peter Griffin. I don't know it's name.

Warning: If Fool reads it, his head will explode.
BTW, I pray to Gl'enn every night, and thank him for all that is good in this world.
Thanks Gl'enn.
