You are the epitome of a bitter atheist. So congrats on that...

If you are referring to me than I assure you I am no atheist.

dang... If only RW was drafted 4 spots later he could be 3:16... instead it's 3:12...

John 3:12 (from my simple google search lol):

"I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?"

I think that sums up RW pretty well.

Well said Schneider

Got Sins?

Obviously he wasn't a true believer, at least not enough to tattoo it on his arms

that's right, and with Gods help he'll do just that, I must add.

Serious question to the mods; how do Seahawks-vs-next-opponent threads get moved to the NFL forum if they're a week early, (i.e., discussing not the upcoming game but the one after and how the Seahawks match up to them) but this religious debate stays in the main forum?

He's not just my "Imaginary Friend" lass, he's also yours.
Isn't his fault you've not chosen well child.

Pretty simple dude, Many here have no proof of Gods existence, just a belief, because some (like those that have lost babies @ Sandy Hook) are counting on seeing them when they reach the other side, who has the right jerk that hope away from those faithful, and to dispell their beliefs.
And you have no proof to the contrary either, just skepticism.
Some also believe in alien beings, who says they are wrong?, most that feel that way have no proof, just a hunch, or BELIEF.

[quote="Soppie"]Bottom line is that there is no god of any kind /quote]
Your proof to the contrary of the believers?
I have had extraordinary shit happen in my 65 + years, that defies ordinary explanation, so I've left the door open.
Not all is make believe.

She's ignorant? Wow. Just wow.

HAHAHAHA! You're funny. Until you can prove beyond a shadow of a doubt there is a god (which you and everyone else on the planet can't) he's your imaginary friend.

That's a good one,,,Don't believe in GOD, but believes in SATAN?
True story,,,,My ex wife took that stance, and argued her point in a debate while in college.

The Existence of Seahawk's Playoff football can be proved in five ways.

Argument Analysis of the Five Ways

The First Way: Argument from Motion

Our senses prove that the Seahawks offense is in motion.

Things move when potential motion becomes actual motion. The coach scripts a play.

Only an actual motion can convert a read option offense into an actual touchdown.

Nothing can be at once in both actuality and potentiality in the same Touchdown drive

Therefore nothing can move itself.

Therefore each thing in motion is moved by something else.

The sequence of motion cannot extend ad infinitum. Overtime ends when a team scores touchdown first or unanswered feildgoal.

Therefore it is necessary to arrive at a first mover, put in motion by no other; and this everyone understands to be Russell Wilson.

The Second Way: Argument from Efficient Causes

We perceive a series of efficient causes of things in the world. Such as Marshawn and the rungame.

Nothing exists prior to itself.

Therefore nothing is the efficient cause of itself. The offensive line makes great blocks.

If a previous efficient cause does not exist, neither does the thing that results. 3 yards and a cloud of dust.

Therefore if the first thing in a series does not exist, nothing in the series exists.

The series of efficient causes cannot extend ad infinitum into the past, for then there would be no things existing now.

Therefore it is necessary to admit a first efficient cause, to which everyone gives the name of Jon Schneider and Tom Cable.

The Third Way: Argument from Possibility and Necessity

We find in football things that are possible to be and not to be, that come into being and go out of being i.e., the football team.

Assume that every being is a draftable commodity.

For each round pick, there is a time it does not exist.

Therefore it is impossible for these always to exist. Sometimes we must trade them.

Therefore there could have been a time when no decent players existed.

Therefore at that time there would have been nothing to bring the currently existing contingent of players into existence.

Therefore, no winning team would be in existence now.

We have reached an absurd result from assuming that every player is a decent player.

Therefore not every player is a Seahawks player.

Therefore some being exists of its own necessity, and does not receive its existence from another being, but rather causes them. This all men speak of as Coach Carroll.

The Fourth Way: Argument from Gradation of Being

There is a gradation to be found in things: some are better or worse than others.

Predications of degree require reference to the “uttermost” case

The maximum in any genus is the cause of all in that Division.

Therefore there must also be something which is to all beings the cause of their being, goodness, and every other perfection; and this we call Seahawks football and the read option.

The Fifth Way: Argument from Design

We see that natural bodies work toward some goal, and do not do so by chance.

Most natural things lack knowledge. So the coaches make a plan.

But as an arrow reaches its target because it is directed by an archer, what lacks intelligence achieves goals by being directed by something intelligent.

Therefore some intelligent being exists by whom all natural things are directed to their end; and this being we call the twelveth man.

That's just it, I don't have to prove that I believe, because I've had experiences in my life that you cannot disprove.
If you're not a believer, and you aren't looking, you will never find....Your problem.
Question is, why do you feel the compulsion to try and take away the hopes of the disheartend, and disenchanted, is it a misery loves company gig?

That has nothing to do with this...We have a religion forum, and normally stuff like this is kept there, that's all.
