There are types of atheism that are virtually identical to agnosticism. Atheism isn't always the firm incredulity in any sort of God.

Same here.

Si, senorita. The reason why there are so many different interpetations of the Quran is that there really is no church. There is nobody there to guide what was meant when it was written. Just like with any text with time the meaning starts fading away with time because the language changes. Considering that a lot of the Quran was written while Mohammad was considered a wolf's head [I don't think that's the term but it is a term for it so that's what I'm going with] there can be a lot of misleading messages. But, the followers of Islam have done nothing worse than what christians have done. Actually if you put their history side by side it's kinda weird how parallel they are. You can't be agnostic and atheist at the same time because agnostic you think there's something and atheist you think there's nothing.

I never think the exact same thing I go between the extremes of each. But no matter what I think it can always be classified in those two. I hope that clarifys.

I think Jehovah Witnesses are funny because they believe like only cerca 44,000 people are gonna make it into heaven but yet they try and spread their religion to everyone.

A few years ago these two old Jehovah's Witnesses would come to my door every saturday at about 10 in the morning so me and my sister once got dressed in bikinis and answered the door and pretended we were gay lovers.
They flipped out.

Good times

Yes, but everyone else lives an everlasting life on earth.

Neither am I but you should still understand the whole bible if you are willing to pass judgement on it.

They left. And later on that day they called my house and ratted me and my sister out.
What I wanna know is how they got our number and why the hell myd ad entertained that conversation for as long as he did.
At any rate, they said they were appauled by our behavior and left.

I've done so many things to offend so many religious groups, it's a miracle I haven't been burned at a stake yet
