Is God Real?: Newsweek Debate (Fascinating!)
A debate between Megapastor Rick Warren and Mega-atheist Sam Harris.
It really is fascinating in about every way. It's not mean-spirited and both guys bring up good points. I think what I took from it is that faith vs. experience is hugely important. I'm not sure where I fit on the big spectrum, because being a Christian I am supposed to believe certain things that I don't. I can't reject certain science just out of hand, and Harris gets at that point in here. It really twisted around in my head while reading it. It's a bit lengthy, but worth reading -- especially after last night's conversation.

I'm so happy I didn't jump into that thread. Geesh! I found myself agreeing with timm, danzig, and dahoss, if ya can believe it! Anyway...to answer your question...it's a definite "yes" and a positive "no". Kinda like how ya look at it. Free will rules. Consequences for all others, or maybe not.

I put it in a diff thread. I got dibs on the nuts. Geesh, those C's don't know about art...metaphors. The gallery director is stepping down. At least Michaelangelo knew what to do...the Sistine ceiling says it all. Seven beautiful nude men...and not once mentioned in the Bible. Joke! Way to go Mike! Some laugh, others cry. Are any of us taking this seriously? Maybe. Even funnier.

I took a philosophy class, and needless to say the teacher was an athiest and I went round for round with him everyday. I think he actually graded me harder because of my belief in God, but I gave him hell and he wasn't going to tell me any different.
There ain't nothing that can't be done By me and God Ain't nobody come in between me and God One day we'll live together Where the angels trod Me and God
