living as an outspoken agnostic these days, I find militant atheists are as equally offensive to me as fundamental christians... in my 50+ years of life experience, I must acknowledge that "we dont' know what we don't know"... science is ever evolving as we DO know... and I will entertain the thoughts that the current magic & mystery in life has the potential one day to be explained by a newly discovered scientific theory. why... why not ???
I found this out today, after posting a link to noetic.org. The immediate dismissal and vitriol was stunning.
Always best to stay open minded and let any and all evidence prevail.
I totally agree. We don't know what we don't know. I believe ALL religions are man-made and god (if there is one) is made in man's image. At this particular moment, I may be more inclined to believe we may have derived from an extraterrestrial alien experiment - yet one must ask - "where did THEY come from?" - we walk it back - "where did the extraterrestrials come from?" You can do this all the way to the "easy explanation of - It was god" - so then where did god come from? This is where our heads explode. I wish I had the answer. If I did, I'd form a tax exempt religion and put Joel Osteen out of business!
