Atheism

[Krogith]

Point being... That just because people die when there 80 er so now does not mean that if the world was perfectly working they would still die at 80 . who knows if you were born in a pure world that worked the way it was ment to, that your life span would increse? Could you of convinced people in midevil times that if they did this or that they would live to 80+ like we do today? Stop being blind. There are things possable out side of your box.

Possible, but unlikely.

Verging on the impossible that man can live for 900+ years.

I'm going to try though Kogrith, you betcha!

sorry, i forgot i posted this. im not gonna read through all of the replies, but some of them i did read. the bottom line is, it doesnt matter if you're religious or not. you're still influenced by religion. because your influenced by society. and a godles society or not, that society was still influenced by religion because religion set a general status quo for human behavior. yet many people bash it as the problem for everything. aside from brain capacity, i think religion is what mostly seperates us from animals.

Not really, the average person has a maximum potential life span of 124 years. At the end of every strand of DNA, which is found in all our cells, are a protein chain called telomeres. Telomeres are essential for cell reproduction to continue, and every time our cell divides the telomere gets shorter. The DNA within each cell can only shorten its telomeres so many times before it can not be split in half and replicated again. When this happens, the cells which have run out die.

Stop being blind. There are things possable out side of your box.

You may want to consider this philosophy yourself. There are many meanings in life to be found outside of your god, and I consider it just as "blind" to accept arguments like 900 year old men just because the book you agree with tells you so.

Not really, some people are born in the World never knowing what to fear, tribes in far off places have no need of a belief system, they are not influenced by any higher power whatsoever, they still manage to exsist and co-exsist along side one another. Your right religion isn't responsible in itself but it is way too open to mis interpretation and the nieve like krogith.Its also true to say a gun only becomes a weapon when it is used against someone.

a want to "do good" is a passed on trait. apes who helped each other survived better, having a group to rely on, than solitray apes. i mean think about it

[MastaChronic]

this is awsome. Good point. Now heres where you are allowed to decide. Ither A: you decide it came from nothing and your god of your exsistance.
Or B: you except design and Not knowing everything and just humbol your self and except the Driection given to you.

Thing is A will lead no where. B will get the benfit of that vast knoladge and direction and purpose.

A means nothing matters. But B means there more to it. and a chance to live forever following this Awsome Creator. Doing things the right way and most benifical, and haveing a better life.

All God wants is people to draw close to him and aply his teachings and listion to his wise ways. This will lead to a everlasting life of happyness.

if you believe in option 'b' then why cant you spell a simple word like knowledge?
vast "knoladge" indeed, hah!
