Stealing an election, Minnesota / Democrat style — after all the whining about how Bush “stole” an election when he really didn’t, where are the Democrats now? What about making every vote count? How about a little consistency?

There is a God, so repent and believe in Christ. Then you can stop worrying and truly enjoy your life — now and forever.
OK, the title isn’t as pithy as the atheists’ bus signs with the slogan below , but it is more accurate.
There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.
Richard Dawkins, who told the BBC that the ad campaign was designed to make people think, an action he said was “anathema to religion.”
Actually, it is Dawkins who is not a clear thinker, while Christianity applauds reason, logic and evidence. Among other things, he thinks he solves his problem of God by hypothesizing that life on earth could have come from aliens — as if that would accomplish anything more than moving the concept of a creator back one degree.

You’re both wrong: The Denver Post removed a reference to “the Lord” from a quote by potential Illinois Senator Roland Burris (“We are hoping and praying that they will not be able to deny what the Lord has ordained.”) . The paper appears to suffer from Christophobia for deleting the religious reference. And if the Senator claims to speak for God then the burden of proof is on him to demonstrate that God really ordained this.

No, he didn’t.
You are responding to “expelled”. He was asked if he could ever see any way that Intelligent Design could be possible. His answer was hypothetical, that it could be possible if it was done by aliens.
Feel free to disagree and have your own opinions. But don’t be dishonest and repeat propaganda.
Neil,
I love the fact that atheists, according to their statement above, are not even sure there isn’t a God. They state that there PROBABLY isn’t a God. For those who seem to think themselves superior in their thinking, that doesn’t sound all that superior, but as if they are guessing there is no God.
Either there is a God or there isn’t one. Which is it? If there isn’t one, then let them prove this. If there is, then we better be sure to find out who He is.
I’m taking the latter position, since He has made Himself known through Scripture.
Blessings
“Feel free to disagree and have your own opinions. But don’t be dishonest and repeat propaganda.”
I didn’t see Expelled, so I don’t know for sure, but it sounded like you just rephrased what Neil said. And maybe you see that there is a difference. But it seems that the problem, if any, is a different interpretation, not intentional dishonesty.
Free free to disagree and have your own opinions. But don’t assume a different interpretation is due to dishonesty or repeating propaganda.
By the way, is that ‘O’ on your cap for Oklahoma State, Ohio State? Somebody else?
For those who say there probably is not a God, I would not count on God saying at judgement that they probably weren’t that bad.
As for Mr. Burris, I hope he was thinking something along the lines of governments being given their power by God.
As for denying what the Lord has ordained, I don’t think there is anybody on earth, (and certainly not in Congress) who can do that. What do other people think?
Thanks, Chance, but morsec0de has a point. I should have written that more clearly. I saw the movie, and it was a hypothetical. My point was that his hypothetical was foolish because even if it were true he did indeed just move the concept back one degree. I changed the wording a little so hopefully that helps convey what I really meant.
The Franken Coleman election is a great example of democrat politics at its finest. I can only hope the court restores some sanity to the process. Votes counted twice, ballots found in the trunk of some guy’s car, more ballots than voters, it’s a joke. But they are determined.
Sorry Morsec0de, I should have had a better idea what you guys were talking about. Many times I see people view another one’s interpretation of the facts as dishonesty, but that didn’t seem to be the case, sorry.
