Interesting point. "god-debate". when did that start? If I believed in providence, I'd say that god himself would have to be behind the fact that probably 80 percent of the threads in the spirituality section end up arguing about god, regardless of how they start. I don't. So I'm more inclined to think its just a narrowmind set on the part of some, and a relentless urge to debate on the part of some others. I would, however, love to occasionally have a fresh and original thread.

I'll say this. And this is not in any way directed at one specific person, a couple come to mind, and who knows perhaps even I'm guilty of this:

we started trying to talk about nothingness. I tried to steer it towards causality, my bad. But where did the thread eventually go? Evolution. What the fuck is wrong with some of you people? Not every discussion that involves the scientific method is a threat to your confused spirituality. Science is bigger than evolution. Science itself, continues to evolve. And I'm tired of every thread in spirituality being coopted for some stance on how great god is. If you'd just examine the scientific method you might find that it would help you in your spiritual pursuits. But whatever, we all get to follow our own chosen paths huh, well, I won't try to convince you.

Can you have spirituality without christianity? Yes. So stop pretending like the world revolves around you. Even the church gave up on the geocentric model.

If you want to discuss matters like adults, fine. If you want to skip around and tell us all that you have jesus in your pocket I'm not interested. I'd rather you listen to your own tired line that gets pulled out whenever you've talked yourself into a corner, and stop trying to convince us.
