Yes this is in response to your question and I do believe I addressed it. Everything I am supposed to know about the world, people, how I am supposed to behave, who I am supposed to love and hate are written in a book. The words contained in this book explain to me everything I need to know. All answers are given, and all commands are given.ant wrote: Suzanne wrote:

Was this in response to my question?
If it was, you didn't address the question.
We have always been entitled to answers. We are also entitled to logical answers. God tells us how the universe was created. It was created in six days.ant wrote: Quote:

Why should s/he?
If there is a god, why would we all suddenly be entitled to answers?
Well I know for certain the universe was not created in six days. Everything I need to know is in that book, anything else, best left up to God, only God should know, God will take care of it.ant wrote:They KNOW for certain there is no god because, well, they just do
"If there is a God", those are your words. My words were, "The God presented to me" is unacceptable. Religion is unacceptable to me. How we all got here, I have no idea. I have never once said I KNOW for certain how I came to be sitting here in my living room typing on a computer except to say I didn't come from anybody's rib.
