Lion 1, God 0

A Ukranian man decided to test for the existance of god is a rather extreme and foolish way, by jumping into a lion enclosure at a zoo. You can imagine the results...

What does this prove? (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13157554/)

It proves that God exists but disproves his own existence.

I'm waaaay ahead of you.

Though if I wasn't, this is my reply: God's inbox is full because of all the Jihadist and the American Religious Right. :p

Nah. The incident proves Rastafarianism.

Well..wait..

Just because some idiot obviously suffering from delusions or was possibly very drunk/high/heavily medicated decides to try and say God will save him but God doesn't and he gets killed all of the sudden is your hard evidence that there is no God?

Hell, if I were God...I would have let the fucker die my self too. Doesn't prove or disprove anything, other than the guy is a dumb ass.

*Thinks back to the Chinaman putting his head in an Aligator's mouth thinking it wouldn't bite him...*

All this proves is that the man did not have the authority to invoke the powers of God. It neither proves nor disproves the existence of God.

Yes. Soon after the books were written he started to question some important things. After some time in therapy he decided to come out of the closet, had a sex operation and now she's happily married.

Maybe God is trying to teach people that he's not Super man and won't come save them everytime there's trouble. Kinda like how Lois Lane always get herself in trouble so that Superman can come save her. If I was Superman I would just let her get killed by the second comic book.

He tried to convert lions to Jesus, and got bitten in the leg for his troubles.

This is great news! In the old days we had to throw the Christians to the lions, not they're doing it all by themselves. :p

The funniest thing is that I saw an almost identical thread a little while back on the same subject. (An I cracked the joke about xtians throwing themselves to the lions).

Thus far, I think this one is closest to the truth.

(Of course, personally, I doubt the existance of "God". All I think this proves is that stupid people + hungry lion = full lion + dead people.)

God doesn't help us out in anyway, not that he should, because he shouldn't. God gave us life, and part of life is problems, and overcoming those problems. If god solved our problems for us there wouldn't be any point in living. There is no reason to blame god for our problems, because it's easy to blame someone else. But we can't blame people for our problems, that just makes life's process on us slower. Which doesn't do any good.

Most atheism comes from growing up as catholic, or extreme fields of christianity. People who take the bible's books too seriously. Those books in the bible are just fictional stories to help us cope through our adventures through life. Catholics have just added onto the stories so people would start to fear God more so they can get more donations.

But there is no reason why anyone should stop having faith in God. God doesn't want you trying to find whatever religion is right for you. God just wants you to be a good person, and try your best through problems.

If we had proof of god it would take away the spirituality we have. And it would take away our science, our philosophy, and our daily lives. Just cause you don't have proof of god, doesn't mean god doesn't exist. It's just like you don't have proof of how your future is going to be, but you have an idea of how it's going to be, it doesn't make it untrue. God isn't reality nor fantasy, god is a celestial being.

Pretty old, but relevant, I suppose:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/8317484/

A 73-year-old Kenyan grandfather reached into the mouth of an attacking leopard and tore out its tongue to kill it, authorities said Wednesday.
. . .
"A voice, which must have come from God, whispered to me to drop the panga (machete) and thrust my hand in its wide-open mouth. I obeyed."

I'm not sure about the God thing, but that is definitely the most badass man in the world.

All this does is prove Matthew 40:7:

http://bibleresources.bible.com/passagesearchresults.php?passage1=Matthew+4%3A7&version1=63

And, Bul-Katho, I can tell you as a Catholic that we take the Bible much less literally than, say, Southern Baptists or other fundamentalists. We learned our lesson with Galileo, whereas these folks are still arguing for creationism, man co-existing with dinosaurs, etc, etc, etc.

he tested God, so I'm not suprised he died, didn't he hear of the passage from the bible that says, Dt. 6:16 "Do not test the Lord your God." If he believed in God he should know that.

It proves Ukranians are stupid.

No, it proves that particular Ukranian was stupid.

Hopefully, he didn't have children, I understand stupidity may be genetic.
