Tell me all your thoughts on god..
Random though that runs through my head when I’m up too late:
If I’m given “free-will” as a gift by god, what gives the “religious right” the idea that they are allowed to take that away? Whether it’s abortion, same-sex marriage, or whatever else might be the plague of the day, it’s *MY* choice. I’m sure god intended me to do with it exactly what I do with it, because the idea that he could have made a mistake in giving me this gift is preposterous, right, and that for another human being to presume to try and second-guess god’s will….well I’m pretty sure that’s against the rules too.
I read somewhere that he doesn’t make mistakes, that everything is his intent. That would mean that homosexuality isn’t a design flaw, as most “Christians” would have you believe, but that he intended for some of us to be attracted that way.
Like I said. I need sleep.

I’ve never understood how “free will” and “it’s all in god’s plan” can co-exist. Aren’t they mutually incompatible concepts? Pick one or the other, christian soldiers.

God? Meh. I don’t need a religion or some deity to tell me the difference between right and wrong. I can make choices, as long as they are not harmful to others (as tempting as bludgeoning a moron or two might be on occasion). I do kind things for people because I enjoy it and it’s the right thing to do. I don’t hurt people because it’s wrong and makes me feel terrible. (usually)

Do you know what else? Isn’t religion, of any flavor, a choice? I mean I was born into a family of nuns and priests but I chose to not be Catholic (totally pissed mum off)

god gives us a pseudo-choice. (Choice under threat of eternal torture and endless pain isn’t really a choice now is it.)
Dude. None of it makes any sense.
