furthermore. i never asked for people's beliefs. this whole thread is about my thought and my idea.
my rant was implied.
as is my egotism. and your lunacy.

I've come to the conclusion that you have absolutely no life.

I don't understand what you find arbitrary about God. I understand that if the sun came up in a different place each day or the stars took a vacation now and then, you could think arbitrary. What do you mean by arbitrary?
We're all flying blind down here, you know? No one has seen the face of God, we see the handiwork, the laws that govern things and such.
I believe because it makes more sense than to not believe. If I see what I think is evidence of a Creator who calls Himself God, then why would I not believe it?
You have to have a willing mind to believe things, don't you? I hope that no one believes on the basis of hearing one person say something. I was a devout Catholic for a long time, until one thing that didn't sound right to me got me into reading the Bible myself and from there, I am finally down to the core, the basic things, no saints to pray to, no beads to say rote prayers on, no special days to bow down or anything that takes away the focus from the center of my belief.
Again, I think it's much easier and intelligent to believe in God than to not. How much effort it must take to look at all the miracles each day and say, "Nah, it's just an accident."

you exemplify arbitrariness throughout your response.
i suggest you reread what i wrote and reread what you wrote. you have brought nothing to the dining table. except what looks to be a charred rump roast and some moldy yams.
just because you have fingers. doesn't mean you should use them.

You are obviously too arrogant to learn anything from anyone with more life experience than you, my dear. I will therefore leave you to your rants and your exhuberant slapping of your own shoulders in pride.

wait a minute.... this is an isabellism: how can we be flying blind and still see patterns, the "handiwork"?? ... you're beaming your belief-dar out, and it's only calibrated for what you want to detect. it's not like you're looking for good, anyway, only "bad and sinful"... the world may be true, and maybe, ummm, there is a god, if god can put little bunnies in your path and make even you smile.

every so often mr bologna creates this argument for what purpose i do not know.
it is pathetic that he keeps bringing this up, views unchanged.
when the camouflage is old, try changing the scenery.
