Is there a god? What is the meaning of life?

What does rape in Africa have to do with 2012. I might bring it up in another thread if the subject comes up, but I don't see the need here.


You're absolutely right.

Easy, if it's outside the "Religion & Philosophy" forum, it's outside his domain. :D

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this in the last 17 pages cause, but I will put in my opinion.

The world was suppose to end on Dec 31st 1999....but we are all here. I remember people speaking about the Book of Revelations and how everything is coming true, how the Mayans have predicted and how nostradumas also mentioned it. Again, we are still here. I bet you could look at tons of predictions of the end of the world and they haven't happened yet. I could say SOMETHING TERRIBLE WILL HAPPEN ON APRIL 10th 2040 and the chances are pretty darn good that I could be right.

Whilst the joke that was posted several pages ago is funny, I believe it holds some truth. None of us know for certain why they stopped this.

So the planet is changing, and some shift might happen with the poles, who is to say that won't happen tomorrow? I can already tell you, as can many other scientists and lay people that things are not boding well for us with pandemics and global warming, but I can't give you an exact date when the entire planet will no longer exist. No one can.

I'll bet ALL of the predictions made of the end of the world up to this point never happened.
You cannot reason someone out of a position that they did not use reason to arrive at.

The sun will expand into a red giant in 4-5 billion years thats when the earth will cease to exist as for human beings and all the living things RIGHT NOW who can say. As long as there is Earth to support life though it will remain :nyah:
