Da BrainSmashr, makin' copies......

I have posted numerous quotes of theses individuals denouncing Christianity. What do you want, a confession? Sorry, they apparently didn't take the time to sit down and write out their specific religious beliefs while they were fighting to free our country from the tyranny of England. Fortunately for those of us who have reading comprehension skills, they left behind many letters, Journals, and speeches.

BTW, how many of those coins with "In God we Trust" do you think were around in 1776, STUPID?

My intention was never to imply that all of the founding fathers weren't Christian. This is just more of the type of religious propaganda that turns educated people away from church and religion....

but we already knew you were part of the problem, didn't we....

BTW, I'll ask you the same thing question I asked the other blind fool.

how many of those green things with "In God we Trust" do you think were around in 1776, STUPID?

They where gold Abby
 

Funny that you would call yourself brain is that to over come something that is missing :laugh: Did you get a photo for your web site of you in your Easter Bonnet ? Maybe time to go out side and play yard darts :laugh: Love your web site by the way. I could never post photos of myself or any of my family on the world wide web but you have at it. Helps explain some of the gibberish that flows from your key board :laugh:

Well, there were none in fact bearing the words "In God We Trust" in 1776, however the phrase did first appear on the first coin, a 2 cent coin, in 1864. It was officially adopted as the phrase to appear on every coin in the 1950's. So Brain, apparently it's been in use in this country for a long, long time. It means something to a lot of people and it looks like that they were apparently the founders of this country. If you don't like it, don't spend the money.

Christian celebrations??
 

I just had to look up your website out of curiosity to see what all the fuss is about and low and behold you have a large and nice looking family! I have a hard time believing that all those loved ones are atheists! Surely you wouldn't call some of those sweet little Christian ladies "scum??" I mean you are calling your photos Christmas and Easter pics so I'm guessing y'all are celebrating Christian holidays?

Pocahontas

Oh my goodness Brain, Pocahontas has done shot you down with one of her arrows!!!!!

:rotflol: :hifive: Go Pocahontas! You go girl!!!!:clap:

I've never met an atheist to my knowledge, so I can't help but wonder this. What holidays do they celebrate if they don't agree with the traditions or belief systems behind them? With that, do atheists still get their holidays off from work?

I never seem to get off for the Martin Luther King Holiday ??? :nono:

:D

He has a wonderful family on his mother's side and from what I remember they were devout Catholics. I don't know his father.

I don't know his father
 

I am sure his father comes from a nice family too. Some time recessive gene's show up and no one has any control of that :eek:
Isaac

This brings up an intriguing point. If being heterosexual or homosexual is determined in part by genetics, then why can't religious or atheist behavoir also be alleged to be determined in part by genetics? I guess the whole concept begins with whether you believe that sexuality is determined by genetics or not (something else like environment). If so, then why stop there? Couldn't someone be "hard wired" to be atheist?

And then going one more step further, wouldn't poking fun at Brainsmashr be Policially Incorrect? (like poking fun at a homosexual would be)

Well looky here at what the net dragged in..............

Are humans hard-wired for faith?

Maybe where we are has to do with where we came from
 

Where did your soul come from? Now just for a second think about that question. Did you answer God ? Well that means it was somewhere before you entered you mothers womb. Read the opening books of Job and know there was a time when all of Gods children were singing together before the kataboe or the fall of Satan. So my point is what we did just might have to do with where we are now. In the near future they will all sing Deuteronomy 32 once again. Then the Ten Commandments and Judge Roy Moore will rejoice once again. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Seven is spiritual completeness !
Isaac

YOU call me brain, I call myself BrainSmashR. So the question is what are you trying to overcome?
Well if my family or I were horrible inbred beasts, I'd feel the same way about them as you do about your family too.

Nearly 100 years later. How many of those "all" christian Founding Fathers were still around at that time?

LAF
Actually 57 years is less than 1/4th of the time our country has been in existence.

Still doesn't support your false belief that all of the founding fathers were christian, does it?
I have no desire to change the phrase, remove it, or affect/alter it in any way, shape, or form....I'm a conservative.

The argument is that all of the Founding Fathers were not christian and you have failed miserably at proving that they were (if you even remember that WAS the point)

You are absolutely correct in assuming some of my Family are Christian, but certainly not all of them, and none of them sit at home reading the bible to themselves on a daily basis.

As for celebrating "christian" holidays...that's a bit of a stretch. Are you of the opinion that we can't have a Christmas get together and not pray one single time? Are you of the opinion that we can't enjoy each others company without considering the sacrifices your "savior" made for humanity? Are you of the opinion that since I'm not Christian that my employer doesn't give me Christmas day off with pay just like everyone else?

Well, you are sadly mistaken.

Seems to me I remember you stating you weren't a christian either....don't you get Christmas day off of work AND celebrate it with family and friends just like everyone else?

It is, except the term we use is called intelligence.

There are Unintelligent people who will believe anything as long as you find the proper source from which to deliver the message. For some people it's the Bible, for others it's a liberally biased Newspaper......then there are intelligent people

You know Brain there are some people who are just so sick, so paranoid, so arrogant, and so determined no matter what to be right that you just can't argue with me. They are so pathologically abnormal in their brain that they can't be helped. You fit in that category. I feel sorry for you. You have convinced yourself that you are 100 % correct and the rest of us are 100% wrong. It's so sad for as long as you keep up this logic you are going to have a sad life. You'll still five years from now be on this personal ads looking for love, still being accused of murder, still be arguing with everybody you meet, and never know what joy you are missing out on.

I wish you well. I hope you will learn to listen and take things to heart and open your heart. I wonder what happened to make it so hard. The first thing you could learn is to answer a question with a sentence not a question.

But bowing to figments of the imagination is perfectly "normal" to you.
Absolutely have not, so I'll repeat the challenge.

Prove the existence of your god and I'll believe. It's that simple.....unfortunately you will have to provide undeniable facts and evidence.....and we both know that's IMPOSSIBLE.
What makes you think I'm looking for one woman to share my life with? Are you people so closed minded that you think everyone should follow your examples of what constitutes happiness?

Get real, I'm 36 years old and you've seen my picture....do you REALLY think I couldn't be married with children if I wanted to be? Has your belief in god and the bible really made you THAT stupid?
Yeah well that's the difference between people like you and people like me. I think with my brain, not my heart.

I would not post any family photos of my family
 

Do all of the people on your web site know you post their pictures ? I sure would not post pictures of my family for all the nuts on the web to look at and copy and use as they see fit. If I had a bad mullet like you I would never post that picture :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Now as far as inbred you should never be talking about that Abby :rolleyes: I have to wonder with your post if your family tree is with out branches :laugh:
Isaac

1. What I do on my website is of no concern to anyone else. I pay the bills my say is final.
2. Yes, everyone is aware of the photos on my website. It's how we share with friends and family who were unable to attend said event for whatever reason.
3. As I stated earlier, If my family were a bunch of inbred basement dwellers, I'd be embarrassed to post their photos just like you.

4. And last, but certainly not least. How stupid must one be to not be able to date photographs by hairstyles and clothing? I swear, when I think you couldn't possible be any dumber than the piles of dog**** in my back yard, you come around and prove me wrong again and again.

Calling God a "figment of the imagination" is the ultimate act of sticking your head in the sand. Funny how the three main religions all share the same "figment of the imagination" (Abraham's God) Mathematically, what are the chances of millions having the exact same dream? Not good, but that is the ground you choose to stand upon.

I see where you are headed Brainsmashr. I believe in the near future, it will become increasingly politicly incorrect to bash someone like you who is, how do I put it, genetically challenged to believe in God. It's not your fault that you may have been shorted in the neurological gene pool.

Are humans hard-wired for faith?

"Dr. Newberg suggests that these brain scans may provide proof that our brains are built to believe in God. He says there may be universal features of the human mind that actually make it easier for us to believe in a higher power."

It would appear by the good Doctor's research that you got short changed somehow. Again, not your fault any more than it would be your fault if you were gay.

Abby everthing you post on "your" web site is public info
 

They are coming to take him away ha ! ha ! Off to the funny farm for the brain and a long sleeve jacket. One flew east and one flew west and brain flew over the Cuckoo's nest. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Oh Abby you will not miss your dog piles in your back yard there will be human piles where your going to end up :( oh and when they check you in off with the mullet !
Isaac

I agree with rhertz. Calling anyone's God an "imaginery being" is very persumptuous and arrogant, Brain. However, you're entitled to your opinion so long as you don't try to feed it to us by force.

Let's try a similar analogy to this one. Let's say you were married to a woman that you sincerely find attractive. Let's say you go out with this woman and some guy walks up and comments that your wife is ugly. That may be his honest opinion even though your honest opinion differs. However, it was still very rude of him to say and you'd probably feel compelled to lay him out for making that comment.

It doesn't matter what the truth is because the truth is entirely personal. However attempting to imply that your personal truth is the ultimate truth is arrogant and some might consider it rude.

Way to go Anime'. You knocked it out of the park with this analogy!:) :clap: :clap: :clap:

Well, you are sadly mistaken.[/QUOTE

At all of our Christmas get togethers there are prayers and blessings. The family gatherings would sure be alot more meaningful if you did remember the sacrifices our Savior made. Your employer is required to give you the day off I never said otherwise.
Okay so I answered all of your questions without a question. Can you answer mine? Since you are calling ALL Christians "scum on the top of the pond" that would include YOUR Christian relatives as well??:confused:

Anime- Where is that Smiley shooting the arrow when Pocahontas needed it??????????????????????:laugh:

[quote=Texasbelle]Anime- Where is that Smiley shooting the arrow when Pocahontas needed it??????????????????????:laugh:[/QUOTE

Yes indeed that would be nice!! I'm sure I'll have plenty more shootings to do!:laugh:

Funny how not one of the "3 main religions" can prove the existence of their god.....sort of reminds me of a time when the "majority" of people just KNEW the world was flat because that's what everybody believed and there were even books to cite as reference.

What you call sticking ones head in the sand, I call accepting the truth no matter how much I (or in this case, you) disagree with it.

I'll get right on it. :D

Am I supposed to be surprised that a "christian" would condone discrimination?

I'm just happy separation of chruch and state prevent idiots like you from taking the law into their own hands.
It's common knowledge that those who lack self confidence place their faith in higher beings. It's where the "not my fault" and "can't help myself" excuses come from.

Do you even think about what you're going to post before hitting the keyboard or do you just enjoy showing how little thought you've given your replies?

BSer you think you know it all. You are one pitiful human being.

Not trying to force feed my beliefs on anyone.....that's what christians are ordered to do. However, the means of shutting me up are quite simple.....They say their god is real, I say show me. Can't do it....imagine my surprise.
No, the equivalent would be the guy saying my date doesn't exist. My reply would not be one of violence, it would be to SHOW HIM my date.....which is EXACTLY what I have asked for...a simple request for a visible savior or just one witnessed miracle that cannot be explained by science.

I readily admit to being quite arrogant and couldn't care less who finds that rude....I'm not here to make friends (I have a life), but rather to debate issues with people who don't share my opinions.

BTW, Science IS the truth. It never changes and there's nothing personal about it. Hot air will always rise, Gravity will always pull and neither are concerned with the fantasies of man.

Well I am delighted that you have prayers and blessing in your family at every get together....and don't get me wrong, they probably take place at some point with some members of my family. What I'm saying is that we don't all stand in a circle holding hands and praying....

As far as my christian relatives, yes that would hold true for them as well. I'm not a hypocrite and to the best of my knowledge they are believers of their own free will. What's there to be confused about? Do you agree with everything every member of your family does and says? Of course you don't.....

Hot air will always rise
 

You should be floating around all the time Buddy :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

It would be interesting to know what your family thinks of your views on religion. I bet you don't discuss them.

Why do you think they don't discuss religion with me, Einstein?

It's not like it's a secret I haven't been to church in like 25 years....
