Intelligent design is an emotional assumption with no evidence. I don’t see God in the design of life or the universe. I just see life and the universe.
If God would like to come over and have a chat with me to prove me wrong, I am open to it. But he’s never showed up.

God never shows up but the Devil will when your body loses God's protection and its immune system goes out of whack. The Devil will have that chat with you.
@sree251 I think the people in Gaza were wiped out due to a complex sociopolitical crisis that was spawned during the mid 20th century within the aftermath of World War 2.

In other words, killing people is ok if you have a good reason to do it?
@QueenOfZaun [quote] You asked me what caused the conflict in Gaza. [/quote]
No,I did not. I don't give a damn for the justification. Those 30,000 people killed - and many thousands more injured and dying from their wounds and hunger - were not killed and being killed by God. As you said, God never showed up. And when God doesn't, the Devil will. So, you are in a world you believe in.
@sree251 I say, that good and evil is a human construct that varies widely from culture to culture and person to person. Different people have different opinions on what is evil. Different cultures have different standards. Different religions have different explanations.
Hence their is so much debate on what exactly is good and evil.
Out of the hundreds of thousands of religions that have existed on this planet, you think you just so happened to have picked the right one?
The Devil is something you can’t see, touch, hear or have any concrete physical evidence of. All you can do is say he is real while being unable to prove it.
Therefore the Devil doesn’t exist. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.
@sree251 In my opinion, the greatest scientific invention doesn’t physically exist. The Scientific Method is an idea of methodology. That when applied correctly determine what is true or false in nature.

Killing people is evil. Jesus said that we must not kill. No exceptions. We must turn the other cheek no matter what.

Killing people is evil. What is there to debate? Don't eat shit. End of story.

The right religious teaching is consistent with that of Jesus. He said to stop killing one another. Turn the other cheek. Our predisposition is to kill each other. It is a tendency bred into us by the Devil.
