These people make me laugh, you use science, he comes back with a book written by a pastor with no degrees Best part though, think of how many reasonable people hear crackpots like this and it actually bring them out of religion. I sometimes wonder if they're just atheist troll using reverse psychology. Hahahaha

Every Cristian in every pew has their own personal interpretation of the bible therefore their own personal definition for God, so if you want God to be OK with lesbians he is, but since he's not real (at least how he's portrayed in the Bible) does it really matter?

Funny enough I'm very proud of the fact that I was a small cog in the machine that brought about the legalization of Marijuana, who's many benefits include bringing relief to many soldiers suffering from PTSD, that I fortunately have had the opportunity to meet in my advocacy. Here's a small story that is of course anecdotal but is representative in my opinion. I was at a Legion golf tournament about a month ago, in my foursome was a veteran that I've grown very close to over the last few years who suffers from pretty severe PTSD. He's a terrible golfer, and hooked a shot onto an adjacent fairway where he accidentally played someone else's ball who was on that hole, when the gentleman who's ball he had played came over to us, he never raised his voice and even though his body language was slightly confrontational he was in no way aggressive, my friend apologized and that was that, but this small altercation upset my friend to the point he didn't play the next three holes. The people I know that have been in situations that most couldn't even imagine, don't brag, in fact most don't even want to talk about it and most avoid conflict as much as possible because it often brings up memories that their own brains still have problems processing (weed does a great job at suppressing that,dulling neurotransmitters etc..) This dougie fool literally wanted to throw down in the streets, because some random dude (me) laughed at him on some inconsequential, irrelevant, pointless internet forum and continuously pumps his own tires on how her royal majesty trained him to kill. Honestly if you think that's how real veterans behave, I'd suggest you go down to your local Legion, buy a beer, talk to some members and MAKE A DONATION well you're there, maybe you could actually help some real soldiers instead of just white knighting for some poser on an internet forum.

Come on it was a least worth a chuckle But seriously I understand your point but I feel this is a real problem and since you can't reason with ignorance the only way I've found to counter this is to push their conspiracy theories to there logical end in the hopes they realize just how ridiculous they are

Spare me your woke whine about privilege. Anyone who lives in the West in this day and age is privileged I'm a 6 foot tall white man from Canada of course I'm privileged but to compare the British royal family to any normal person from the west is just ridiculous who took on a job with enormous responsibilities enormous responsibility? What are you on about? It's someone with unlimited resources an entire team of handlers, completely controlled public outings and a position that is purely ceremonial. The high school student with a part time job at McDonald's has exponentially more "responsibility" yelling insults sir all I said is she was a rich inbread, that's just factual. You're the only one throwing around insults. is you're a nobody with no accomplishments in life and nobody cares about.And your jealousy lies in the fact that when you die nobody is going to take notice or give a damn. I have a great life, you should work on yours because your projection is pretty severe

If you define "classy" as not mourning the passing of one of the most privileged people on the planet, who attained that privilege based solely on her family tree, then I guess I'm not. How many people in the British empire you think will go hungry during the time Millions of dollars will be spent on lavish funerals and memorials? This concerns me much more than the death of some rich inbread So again why should I care about the queen?

Why does anyone care that there's one less inbread, who's only claim to relevance is family she was born into ?

Uh-oh you better be careful talking about things like that in public, George Soros is going to send the lizard people after you.

You're telling me he physically took you to his apartment.

Right! no idea about the boys and girls club, my guess you found cabbage town on Google, took your long time to answer and it was with a poor deflection. Of course I not going to give names that can easily be traced, again I think you're dealing with some mental health issues

Of course you're anonymous, we're on the internet Who ran the Y? Easy way to prove you're not full of it

Please take the time to read my interaction with Dougie93 He made a claim " from Regent Park " I asked a direct question that anyone from there would know, he avoided it then started making threats Yet I'm the one who's intentions should be questioned? Come on now

Settle a beef? Oh son I have no emotional investment in some random internet fool I just enjoy laughing at anonymous people trying to live in their internet fantasies Anyway I'm in Montréal now, but if you want to come down for some poutine and a good microbrew you're welcome, I know some good therapists as well

There are many times in life one must be serious. Some random internet forum is not one of those times Reasonable people can tell the difference

So you're lying about coming from the park too? Tell me more about your fantasies

So who ran the ymca? Mr soldier from RP

Again just proving you lack the mental stability to have really been given a gun by the military. Those that act like tough guys rarely are

Good try big guy, but basing your opinion on the name I use in some random forum. Weak

As I thought, can't answer a direct question then plays internet tough guy You're just proving my point

Wait! You claiming to be from RP? Let's see how truthful you are and probably nobody else will get this Who fan the boys and girls club in the 80"s? And for bonus points what was his magic trick? May not have served but I know Regent

I said you weren't good enough to shine their boots As far as your soldier boy fantasy I have no interest in engaging, nor would I give out anyones name on an anonymous message board, particularly to someone struggling with mental health(ie you) as I would worry you may act out your delusions on real patriots

I have never been a member of any armed services. I have done some charity work for the legion but that completely irrelevant. What I do have is enough respect for them not to pretend to be some soldier boy. I know guys that have been in actual combat, they don't act like little soldier boys either, it's the complete opposite, because they too have respect

Yes, in fact there are many fiction writers I respect, fortunately non of them served in the armed forces either

It's a good thing you're just living out some internet fantasy and were never actually armed by " Her magesties forces " because that would be scary, I've known many people that have served bravely and you sir lack the mental health and critical thinking skills to shine their boots

I will start by answering your question directly, then I may ramble a bit, hahahah Is science necessary for faith? No That being said, the interjection you have just quoted me on was in response to someone completely misrepresenting science in an attempt to discredit years of intellectual pursuit, based solely on his limited interpretation of an ancient text I completely agree that when speaking about origins religions can, should and (when speaking to reasonable people) mostly do speak almost entirely on a metaphysical level ( which I honestly have little time for) As for share in common, first it's pretty hard to find someone else in the same pew at church that have the same view on metaphysics as you never mind the same denomination, or religion or just any other person of faith, but the idea of going through the world with any strong presuppositions seems closed minded to me, I try to limit mine to reality exists and we all share it. I will say I do appreciate the original poster views, as they lead more people out of the oppression of religion than any non believer ever could.
