I've definitely questioned it. I once held similiar opinions to yours. I think you are blaming God for what should be blamed on the devil. Did you realize names have meanings? Satan means deceiver, or liar. The devil is referenced by several different names in the Bible and each one has a significant meaning. Mainly- liar, deciever, ensnarer, murderer, theif.
By the way it is very debatable whether life is being extended. According to the Bible pre flood humans lived to be 900+ years. God set the limit of 120 years after the flood and there are reports of many people in ancient times living 100+ years. Right now we are averaging 70. Is that higher or lower than 900?

Fuck me .......,. I never realised there were so may wierdy-beardy religious nutcases on this site. No wonder they never make any sense when they are talking about boxing (!)
Jesus was a gifted boxer, but he had to stop 'cos he had bad hands. That's whay they call the day after his birthday 'boxing day'
Not many people know that.

Me too, your self esteem would be much lower than it already is if you were close to me. :-X

I'm a nut case? And please provide an example of something I posted that didn't make sense.

Don't be so defensive - I never called you a nutcase. If you wish to be considered one by me, then please apply as there is a long queue!
;D

People are having a civilized discussion/debate and you come along and call someone an idiot.
Way to set a good example.
Re: Creation and evolution aside,
Yeah, Missy - I was nearly being converted then and you went and ruined it.

Who were you referring to when you said, "wierdy-beardy religious nutcases"?
I don't have a beard. And I wouldn't need to apply for for nutcase status, if I were they would label me that as I was being committed.
My feelings aren't that easy to hurt so I am not defensive, but I would like an explanation of your comment. If it wasn't referenced towards me, who? :boxedin:
Re: Creation and evolution aside,
OK then - I was having a poke at everyone who spent pages and pages of threads on this subject (and also the one about creationism v evolution). You were part of it, so I guess I did refer to you as well.
It is all a bit tedious - people with half-baked ideas, others who proceed with unshakeable faith, some who try and dress it up with flawed 'science' and all the rest of it. It is all toe-curlingly earnest - people posting up snippets of information that they have learnt form disreputable sources and then not fully understood.... and all this being seriously presented as the answer to the greatest question in the Unverse (along with a healthy yet truly geekish sense of conspiracy theories, and Da Vinci Code-style stupidity)
And, before you react - I know that I didn't have to enter the thread or post anything. I know that I do not know any of the answers to these questions. I also know that one fo the primary manifestations of religious fascism is a lack of a sense of irony or humour.
Sorry - but you did ask.
:(

You think I don't sense irony or humor? I sense it just fine, you're just not very funny. I am not offended by anyones comments in this discussion. I think it is very ironic and actually moronic for people to claim they have facts which they have never verified, but accept by faith, then poke fun of others who admit they only have faith.
It's not me getting my panties in a bunch, you and missy, and fenster, throw the 2 sentence snide and insulting comments around. It's a discussion that I would rather spend time on than another prime for prime tyson vs superman. You know that after reading here for awhile you get those out of your system, and you don't get involved in those anymore. I just haven't gotten this one out yet.
By the way as far as conspiracies..... Why is it that people are so high minded about them? Insider trading goes on all the time, many of these things can be easily proven, yet as long as it's labeled a "conspiracy" it's laughed off.
The federal reserve act of 1913 was REALLY voted in on Dec. 23rd, 1913 while almost all of the people who SHOULD have been voting were home on holiday vacation. It was really a conspiracy where the minority that supported it waited until everyone left, called an "emergency" session, and voted it in unaninamously. Check up on it, it isn't a "theory". It is verifiable and proveable, therefore not a theory. Evolution IS a theory cause it's not verifiable or testable and definitely not proven. Hence the name "theory". Translation is fairytale.... But people get pissed off defending there fairytale, and want to mock my fairytale, by calling there's "science". It's not. Same argument over and over. I am not trying to force anyone to believe my faith, but don't promote yours as being proven cause we are both on equal ground. And any one who doesn't understand that has been LIED to.

Re: Creation and evolution aside,
Sorry Luvfightgame, but I have an impression of you banging the keys of your computer really hard when you are making one of your rambling sermons. I don't doubt you might actually believe what you are saying (and I know no better as I have no first-hand facts or evidence either way)
I am not going to get into an argument with you, and I'm trying not to fall out with you ....... I'm just saying that - as a non-expert - it sounds like tedious ranting to me.
A mass of half-truths and internet myths, put together seemingly at random to make a vast amorphous tower of belief. It has little foundation but is festooned wiht the armour of social exclusion, which makes it impervious to the probing of rational minds.
Still, have a cool click for being committed.

It's also partially for agreeing with me about Willard v Dempsey being one of the most brutal beatings we've seen.

Re: Creation and evolution aside,
I am not mad at ya. Here's your cc back.
Sorry I don't like your humor, it's just hard to follow. I know you're a pretty smart guy but communication just isn't your forte.
Anyway's how could you call my posts long????? My posts are always fairly short. I think you are confusing me with someone else.
Anyways, I like boxing and whether you agree with me or not, I could kick your tail.....
Just kidding. ;D Seriously I don't take this stuff personal, and I am certainly not pounding away on my keyboard. Maybe it's some stereotype you have. You didn't have an encounter with a priest growing up did ya?????
Now try to say I don't have a sense of humor. I don't care who you are that was funny.
Re: Creation and evolution aside,
Ah-ha gotcha - it's just a theory that some people think I'm 'smart', there are absolutely no facts behind it at all, and it can't be proven or disproved ;D It must be an article of faith. Anyone who thinks different has been LIED to ;)
I don't remember any encounters with priests, but that could have been a previous incarnation?
Also, now that we are friends - I do owe you a bit of an apology for giving you a hard time for my own amusement. I checked out your other posts and decided that you were actually a boxing fan and not a religious fanatic after all. Trouble was, I had already started laying into you and couldn't get myself out of it gracefully.
So, sorry and all that. But I still don't agree with you - we'll agree to disagree and I will go to bed as it's late and I have to work tomorrow.
