Yes and yes. I'm not really into hentai and I have no reason to believe God is either but considering how some creatures in the Bible are described you never know. If God was sitting there watching it when I get to heaven and said take a seat I'd do so. But I'd be more interested in seeing the reaction of the first morally conservative fella to come by then the hentai.

Meh I don't understand what god is, and as far as I can tell, there are far too many different views (I would bet somewhere around 6 billion, probably much more though) on what he is for me to make any kind of judgement on his existence.

If one of my concepts of god exists, well yea I wouldn't mind watching a bit of hentai with him. I'm sure god could make anything fun, and if he produced the hentai, I'm sure it would be awesome.

I believe that mankind is not in a position to know 'God', if 'God' exists, and therefore all dogmatic religious texts are based on either delusion or lies, or both.

I also don't subscribe to the equally dogmatic 'atheists', who presume to know whether or not 'God' exists. You cannot tell anyone, definitively, whether or not 'God' exists.

I guess that makes me 'agnostic'.

the god i belive in is neither a him nor a her, or rather, there's no knowing any sort of thing that would make sense of such a classification.

the god i believe in is something that anything anyone thinks they know about it is probably their own dreaming. the god i believe in is that yes, there is something there.

as for watching, well it watches whatever it feels like as far as i know.

as for animated eros, well i like better xd w/o the exagerated genitalia.
hey it's a big universe out there. why should humans have all the fun.
or earth life forms only.

and of course i prefer to create and explore on my own, more then with anyone, most things and most of the time anyway. not that i'd want to make any awairness great or small, vissible or nonvissible feel bad.

and i do appreaciate all of them.

but i'd really like to just play leggo blox with star stuff off in a corner by myself somewhere.

but i wouldn't mind visiting each other once in a while.

sure i'd love to invite god or gods and whatever other smaller spirit people felt like coming by to watch the kinds of worlds i'd like to synthisize to shaire with all of them and anyone else who wanted to enjoy or co-create rather then destroying.

Would you watch hentai with Christ?

I believe in God and would totally watch hentai with god. In fact, since I believe in an immanent god, I would say that every time I do watch hentai, I and I watch the part of god that is hentai.

I think this is one of the best religion threads I've ever seen on NSG.

something along the lines of

Also, im gonna have to counter albert10110. All of his beliefs are based on rational thought/ life experience, as opposed to faith; believing something despite, or even because of a lack of evidence. Believing in god is separate to believing prison rape isnt funny (even though both these beliefs are silly:p)

Heh of course that only works with a certian type of theists, certianly not polythesits, or deists.

And only in the context of the belife, the actual mechanics that found either belief are the same.

Hmmm you have a point. I suppose that I believe whilst the mechanism used to form the different beliefs is the same, the source of the information 'fed into' the mechanism can be reliable, unreliable or any combination therof, and that this is what distinguishes 'reliable' beliefs from 'unreliable' ones... unreliable beliefs are founded on faulty reasoning and false evidence, whilst reliable beliefs are based of sound reasoning and rational evidence. Does that make any difference?

The problem being of course, the only mechanism to tell the differance between a 'reliable belife' and an 'unrealiable belife' is the individuals belife system!

Heh what it really boils down to is the all too human thing of fearing that which we don't understand, and the conviction(or perhaps belife) that I am right(or correct). Many non theists, espeacily the ones that delight in telling theists how deluded they are, just cannot understand why one would hold such belifes, and so instantly not only is the theist wrong, but some how also stupid, and thus the attack begins.

Now this also goes the other way, indeed we can see that many theists are more scared and lack understanding of athiesm(and so more prone to attack)
than the other way around.

My god(s) are not anthropormophized. I believe that there are two primary forces in the universe (I can speak only for this one, however....I haven't visited any of the other infinite number of infinite universes yet, although I do have my universal passport now). One force is the ultimate creative force, the other is the ultimate destructive force. Are these forces sentient? I certainly wouldn't know. Perhaps on a level that is totally incomprehensible to us, or perhaps not at all.

Hentai is what happens when these two forces meet. I doubt that, were these forces in any form capable of watching hentai, they would deign to watch it. Would I watch it? Sure, if I was bored enough.

I do have to wonder, though....if the turnips and the flying spaghetti monster got together, would they watch hentai together? My gut tells me yes. I mean, come on....flying spaghetti monster? It's hentairiffic!

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Absolutely and utterly incorrect. I award you zero points.

Atheists, generally, claim to not have faith. Atheists, generally (because atheism doesn't have a codified set of beliefs the way religions do), claim to not have religious beliefs. But not all beliefs are religious. For example, I, as an atheist, believe that the scientific method is the best way we have to examine reality and the laws of the universe. But that's hardly a religious belief.

Can you really not see the distinction between the two?

Bwhahahhaha you are funny, you're like getting your knickers in a twist over nowt really you are.

I really don't care what Atheists belive or don't belive or what ever. In fact I didn't even make that original point.

Somebody, and I'm really too lazy to find out who, said summit along the lines of 'Not beliving in God does not mean that you have no belifes, dispite what Theists claim'

Now I have never heard of a theist claim such a thing, in fact quite the opposite and so I changed the word Theist to Atheist, because that is what I thought the person meant.

I didn't even mention any specific belife, nor type of belief. I fully understand the distinction you talk about, and the only claim that I did make was that Atheists certianly hold some beliefs, fuck man, everybody does.

In fact you say above.

Theists DO claim that, though. I can't even count how many times I've been told "Bah, you're just an atheist, you don't believe in anything." Seriously. It happens a LOT. That's why Albert10110 made that video in the first place, and why I posted it.

Nobody has? Look at the damn poll options! The only option for atheists is "No, I believe in nothing." It's a ridiculous poll, because it implies that atheists don't believe anything, just because we don't have faith in any deity or believe any religion.

It's a common and sickening stereotype, which isn't even true for a significant number of atheists. I've never met an atheist who'll tell you that s/he doesn't believe anything. Ever. Just that s/he doesn't believe anything until evidence is provided. Belief != faith.

Theists DO claim that, though. I can't even count how many times I've been told "Bah, you're just an atheist, you don't believe in anything." Seriously. It happens a LOT. That's why Albert10110 made that video in the first place, and why I posted it.

*shrug* Well then I guess I got that one wrong, perhaps the OP really did mean theists then. They must be rather stupid ones though to actualy belive that.



Nobody has? Look at the damn poll options! The only option for atheists is "No, I believe in nothing." It's a ridiculous poll, because it implies that atheists don't believe anything, just because we don't have faith in any deity or believe any religion.

Heh what no, jeez yeah I'm sorry man, I thought you was saying something else. Just a no mate you are wrong!

Fair doo's then. Although I'm am glad that you agree with the point that I did make, which was of course atheists have belifes.

I don't know, I have after all just spent how many posts, saying that atheist do hold belifes and not holding to this stereotype you talk of.

What is hentai?hentai is Japanese for twisted or perverted. it's been, however, more commonly used as perversion (in a sexual nature) and when used as a noun, like in the OP, it referrs to Animated porn.

it's varied, from vanilla to... well, many different fetishes. People in the west tend to equate Hentai to 'Tenticle Sex' where a multi-tenticled monster has it's way with one or several women/girls. tho there are other forms of Hentai that don't feature tenticles.

Of course, some are nothing but glorified porn, but there are some with very... engaging stories.

Imagine looking into JuNii's mind. In anime format. *nod*

Now, now, there are thing running around in my head that is best not shared with anyone else.

well, the stereotype of religious people don't fit alot of religious people also. in this case, I just don't vote on the poll. (In fact, I don't vote on the poll unless the option matches my answer.)

In an infinite number of infinite universes, the likelihood of there being a God approaches one. *nod*

There's a serious problem with that logic.

First, it presumes infinite number of universes, which has not been proven(though I must admit the idea is absolutely wonderful for fiction purposes.)

Second, it does not define what God is in this context. Are we talking supernatural, supreme omnipotent deity? Norse style really powerful but ultimately still human-like dippy?

Third, it fails to realize that even if a God like, say, the Christian God were possible in some universe somewhere, it would be completely irrelevant as far as we are concerned. Such a God is impossible according to the fundamental laws of this universe...we could not interact with such a God, such a God could not interact with us, and so on and so forth. Basically, it'd be utterly meaningless, since what is important is not a God of some universe somewhere, but whether a God exists/has created/what have you of THIS universe.

Well, the only stereotype I have about religious people, that I will actually assume about them without knowing them better, is that they believe what they do without evidence, but I think that's a safe one-- that's what faith means! (Though, I often wonder why faith is so often called, by some people, a "higher" way of knowing... that implies that faith is better than reason, and I can't understand that. I can understand saying it's just a different way to know, even if I disagree, but a higher way? No way!)

I do recognize several tendencies among theists, but I don't apply them to any given person until s/he demonstrates them. (For example, I find that theists tend to be more conservative and more likely to want to enforce what they believe on others, but I won't assume any given religious person does until I see them attempting to do so)

But yeah, I refused to vote in the poll on principle, it just annoyed me that that was the only option, because that stereotype just really bothers me.

Would you watch hentai with Christ?

I believe in God and would totally watch hentai with god. In fact, since I believe in an immanent god, I would say that every time I do watch hentai, I and I watch the part of god that is hentai.

I think this is one of the best religion threads I've ever seen on NSG.

i would love to watch hentai with jesus.

he could turn my diet pepsi into quality wine. we'd get tipsy and laugh at the absurdity of the goings on in the hentai. it would be a great time.

No, but I am a believer in Karmic resurrection. So there you go.

Thats me fucked then.:D

I don't believe in God in the monotheistic or pantheonistic sense, but not quite in the sense above either.

If anything, I would suggest that our individuality endures. I see little point in an afterlife, or reincarnation, of one's sense of self is lost therein.

Well, the only stereotype I have about religious people, that I will actually assume about them without knowing them better, is that they believe what they do without evidence

And that really is stereotypical.

Yesterday you where talking about belife and it's differant levels, you asked me wether or not I can understand these diffring levels. Then allow me to turn the question back on you. Do you not understand that there are differant levels of evidance?

Once again let me talk of being loved. You feel that you are loved because of your subjective experiances, because of others acts that you eqaute with being loved, and because of the trust you place in those that tell you 'I love you'.

You belive that you are loved based on this subjective, not objective evidance. In all areas of this belife you must place trust that you are not being lied to nor in any other manor decived.

Do you not see that the majority of religous people have similar evidance, to say that there is no evidnace for such a belife is like saying look at them silly, silly people, and by doing so you exhibit both a lack of understanding and a superior attitude.
