Im not saying he's insignificant, just not to blame for every wrong thing that happens. God still plays an important role in Christians lives, I know he plays a great role in mine. Never cal me a Deist. I am a Catholic. God doesn't play dice. Obviously, Mr. Einstien, one of the smartest humans ever, believes in God. |

Actually, a large percentage of science is theory, for which there is no statistic. Statistics are a part of science, but where science and religion disagree are typically on matters for which statistics are useless. There are no statistics for the creation of the world. So people argue over that. And that quote was a small part of the statement I was making. You said science proves that God is irrelevant-I said science has little to do with personal beliefs. |

So a 4 year old boy that is killed on the street has a purpose? He's "needed" somewhere. His life was only to spend a few innocent years in the world to only be torn from it and from his family? He is paying for society's woes? Nope, it's because there is nothing in control except for ourselves.

My point is that the Sick and dying of the world. God isnt causing this. Children in Northern Korea arent starving to death because god hates them, its because Kim Il Jong doesnt care. |

No doubt that Mr. E believed in god - he was jewish. But that quote relates to quantum theory, BTW, not religion. |

What does this have to do with anything, God didn't put him on Earth to get killed. Either, he got himself killed, or someone was a bad driver. Unless you have read the Bible with an open mind I can't explain to you about how God intervenes with us on Earth. |

Now the father takes it upon himself to make a difference, five years later he becomes a policemen and one night on a domestic disturbence call he calls social services because he notices cigerete burns. Because he lost his son, he loves kids and pays special attnetion to them. Everything happens for a reason, some of it hurts. |

So how does god intervene then? Or is he just used as a scapegoat, given thanks, and then overlooked with the bad stuff starts to happen. |

Just because I watched Curt Schilling claim that god helped him pitch the game. Very amusing. If you insist that there is a god that is responsible for the good things, he better damn well be responsible for the bad things. Or else it just proves to me that there is nothing. |

God interevenes mostly in people personal lives, not in mass amounts of people at once, nor will he stop a landslide that will hit a village which was "smartly" built of shcks on a loose slope. People blame God for things that they, or some other person, deserves the blame. Lets face it, no one wants to be blamed for anything. So they blame God. |

It makes me sick when athletes hoot and holler about god. If anything he would give support in the weightroom, he gives you your gifts and all that. He did didnt make Sammy A. Hitemgood strike out in the bottom of the 9th. |

My point exactly. So if we can't see, hear, feel, or otherwise know whether god has intervened, how can intervention be signficant? Either god doesn't intervene, or his interventions are useless. |
