"Bobsprit" wrote in message ... He, on the other hand, attacks me. If I had realised that you suffered from a "victim" mentality, then I would have ignored you completely. Donal, we can discuss beliefs without taking it to a personal level. I respect you for two reasons: 1-You sail. Hah!! You do have faith! 2- You seem to have a sense of humor. There's really very little else I can tell from what's written here, but in this group you MUST have those two items to survive. Ultimately, I believe that the key reason people continue to believe in god is because they are unable to cope with the idea of dying; of not being. I disagree. If you look at my posts, you will see that my views have a scientific base. I would ask that you consider my original question - and also my three options regarding the origins of the Universe. The control commanded by various religions is totally based on a promised "quality of afterlife." Meanwhile, our biology and real world efforts are clearly geared to the reality of a final and complete end. If that seems sad, consider that many wonderful things (Roses, sunsets, the life of a beloved dog) all end quickly, making them all the more special. We need not invent a heaven for them, or ourselves. Once again, I invite you to highlight *anything* in my posts that could be deemed "unscientific". I don't have blind faith. I've worked it out.
