Are you religious?

I had a really bad spiritual experience one evening in August of 2016.

I'll leave it at that. Sorry.

Released August 2016 ...

What is the Catholic Church's position on evolution?

You're a hack.

Some believe in evolution and some don't.

I do.

Your post inferred it's forbidden because you don't know the difference between Catholicism and a fundamentalist Christian.

I'm glad you're learning.
 
Nope. You know nothing about me. And one thing I am confident in is that staying away from your recommendations is a great bet.

I know lots about you:

You're way past middle age.

You're betting your life on atheism.

You know little to nothing about theology and philosophy.

No it didn't. Now you're making shit up. I knew all along that the church has not and will not take a position on evolution. Instead they will provide diatribes in an effort to keep gullible people in tow.

Regardless, I believe in evolution.

The atheists are the gullible ones.

Wagering your life on atheism is a losers bet!

LOL - so ignorant.

It's a shame you can't provide a cogent rebuttal to simple challenges from someone who knows "little to nothing about theology and philosophy".

You're such an easy mark.

I've rebutted you 150 times in this thread.

It's impossible to convince you of anything.

Go bet your life on atheism and slither someplace else, Riley.

It's been wildly amusing taking you apart and making you dance. I'm moving on to other amusements. Carry on with your nonsense. LOL.

You didn't take apart anything. Lol

You claimed believing in evolution was "at odds" with Catholicism, which is false.

It's your life Riley. The average life expectancy of a man in America is 78.

You're like 75% there.

If you want to wager on atheism, go all in..
 
Oh it's still a shit argument. I just took a wild guess as to what you'd be slingin'

I didn't read a goddamn bit of this thread.

That's how good I am.

*rides on*

We know Jesus existed historically.

Focus on Him.

Don't bet your life on atheism.

So your job would be to get someone to the point of not finding the possibility of what you're selling to be so fleetingly small that pascal's wager is a worthy consideration.

The problem is that you people don't seem to be able to gin up enough evidence to get people like me to move at all.

In that way, I'm like you when it comes any number of religions that might suggest eternal damnation for you -- your calculations say their probability of being correct is so fleetingly small that you need not bother act.

So you know the feeling, necessarily.

I'm an ex-atheist.

Just ask Jesus if He is real. Be patient. Go to Mass. Wait 6 months.

You will see that He is real!

I consider myself a free thinker. I’m free to think whatever I want. Which means for me, I don’t believe in religion. I don’t really care for the stigma of being an atheist. I never talk religion amongst friends. I have zero desire to talk someone into being an atheist. I just keep that shit to myself.

I grew up Lutheran, confirmed in my teens. Can still probably recite the Apostles Creed. I know the Lord’s Prayer. Attended a Lutheran, small, private college. College is where I changed. Had a professor that really challenged me to think about the hypocrisy in religion. How so many of the stories in the Bible are also stories that are from other times/places and couldn’t possibly be true as told. Then the shit came out with catholic priests and I had had enough. It’s brainwashing. It’s starts with Sunday School, or whatever organized Sunday morning youth program you are required to attend prior to your parents attending a group chanting and singing together. Weird rituals, eating wafers, drinking grape juice pretending it’s wine. Oh, forgot, they need your money. 10% or more should do. Fvck all that.

Now, if that’s what YOU want to do. Great. Grand. Knock yourself out. I don’t care what YOU do. Doesn’t bother me one bit. Whatever gets you through the day.

I mean, it's all in service to a non-truth. But depending on how you do it, it can be useful to society and yourself.

Wow, dude. I must say you have some endurance. You got quite the collection of haters. It still amazes me how angry the topic of religion can make some people.

As far as your religion is concerned, I’ve never attended a Catholic church on Sunday but I have had the misfortune of attending a Catholic wedding. All I can is it was the worst five hours I’ve ever spent in a church.

Seriously, though, why so long for one damn wedding?
We don’t hate religion- we hate Brian. He’s earned it.

You HATE the Catholic Church, Belem. You were born into the greatest gift a person could ever receive and you reject it.

That's your right, I just wouldn't recommend it. :(

Wrong again.
I think the church is soaked in blood.
And I think you need help by mental health professionals.

Yeah, you hate it.

I don't need mental health help. I'm full of joy.

Are you?
Keep telling yourself that, you need to belie it in order keep from killing hookers again.
