Depends if a Jehovah Witness has knocked on their door yet
they dont call at my house any more. a lot of people who know me, say im very quick witted, and have an answer for everything, and can give sarcasm a whole new meaning lol
i like to know why, how and what for, for everything. cause and effect, action and reaction etc
a jehova told me god is real, i asked her to prove it, she started with the beauty and complexity of a flower and how it can recreate itself. i argued that it cant recreate itself without another flower, and outside intervention from insects, wind, etc to polinate them, but man can create a more complex microchip, programme it, and it can then recreate itself and its programme with no outside influence as long as the 'ingredients' are there
then she started with the soul, which weve covered talking about energy earlier in the thread
plagues have been scientifically proven, and can even be recreated or caused
miracles can be either recreated or put down to exagerration, the bible is a collection of stories afterall, and what good is a story without a little bit of fabrication of the truth?
my ex wife has become very religious latley, its her choice and ive nothing against it, ive always said to my kids that its up to them if they believe in god etc, when they ask, i dont go into all the 'theres no god' crap, as its their choice, i tell them what i learned in shcool, and sunday school as a kid
my oldest, at the moment, says to me that theres no such thing blah blah etc, but i think shes trying to work out what she believes in, i wont help to sway her in any direction, but, i will respect the choice she makes, my middle one is like me, he has to know why, if he cant find the logic behind it, he will keep looking, and my youngest believes
i have a book called the 100 wonders of the world, and my boys argue over things in it, youngest says god created niagra falls etc, his brother says its water battering the rocks away
we're a very open minded lot lol
but
the egg came first, cos dinosaurs didnt used to lay chickens
