I'm a bit bored and was interested in how many GMC'ers are religous.

Theist - believes in the existence of a God or Gods
Agnostic - isn't sure about the existence of a God or Gods
Atheist - does not believe in the existence of a God or Gods

oh i do love a good theological debate, although usually after a few drinks. there have been some good points made on either side although if you thought the dog throwing thread was starting to get a bit hot then this one has the potential to go supernova. my turn to add some fuel to the fire.

personally i do not subscribe to the notion of an ultimate intellginece or supreme creator as i am happy with the fact that as a species we do not nor will ever know all the answers to the questions that surround our existence, for me the notion that it is " gods will" or that it is all part of gods grand plan is just the easy way out. religion and belief in god to me is just a way shielding one self from the fear of the unknown.
that is not to say that core the teachings of todays religons are in error they teach some very good things but they are afterall things that have been around in society since we first stepped out of the trees, (i appreciate that the creationists will not agree with that so dont bother quoting and slating me).
i think it is great that we all beleive different things otherwise life would get very boring and stale, it is just another sad fact of life that certain individuals will twist and destort the beliefs of thier fellow followers for thier own personal gain, so for some one to say that an athiest has no morals or that another who believes in a different deity not only wrong but the enemy is typical of the blinkered view of religon/s.

lets face the facts; we are all alive, we are all here on this ball of dirt and water that is hurtling through space at thousands of miles an hour. lets just appreciate that fact and enjoy it while it lasts. tongue.gif
