But I also observe that your Bible god does not answer prayers and this Higher Intelligence I believe in doesn't answer prayer either. But this Being has to possess immense power to create the universe. Yet we witness the most vile horrors being perpetrated on the most vulnerable and innocent among us, namely little children, who must in some part of their being wonder why atrocities are being foisted on them continuously when they pray and pray for rescue. This to me is at the very core of why I insist this Higher Intelligence at best is cold and uncaring and at worst is pure evil.
Veridical truth...Did you actually mean to say ‘truthful truth’?...Wouldn’t it be more accurate to say ‘veridical evidence’?...

As a Thai person I can choose to be loving and serve my fellow human beings. It has nothing to do with Jesus.

He is a god who creates everything, but still has time to have a relationship with it's friends, otherwise Christianity would just be another religion with followers.

13.7 billion words from a 4 letter alphabet, not only coded linearly but in the way its folded and the way its inserted into the cell.

I saw an MIT paper that mentioned there is quantum entanglement in DNA, they said they were puzzled by the fact there was more energy than accounted for and investigated.
I didn't feel like paying to access the full paper.
yup. something more, is by far, the most valid position today. Science and engineering speaking anyway. We don't know what it is in full but its pretty clear that anti-god to stop religion and things like a bible deity are clearly less valid positions.

Let's be honest. The atheism represented here has nothing to do with disbelief, or lack of belief. It has everything to do with a hatred and a militant opposition to anything religious, but specifically Christian.

Wrong. As always.

Most of the atheists here have no problem with most believers.

If there is hatred and militant opposition it is to fundies such as yourself who would inflict your sick values on all of society if you could.

Very embarrassing, ignore the above, it is wrong. Lack of coffee and sleep.

It can not be both.

It is your posts that have everything to do with hatred and opposition of anything that refutes your world view.
