Why do moderators have God under thier names?
It's a bit misleading don't you think? If not misleading than certainly excessive, I think. Or do you think you're God? Maybe you should change it to Godlike and ease off the ego a bit. Just a suggestion. Could you change mine to "Dark Schneider" if its not asking too much?(lol) I guess it could be seen as a kind of joke. That was my first impression of it. Of corse we all see things differently right? There's only one God right? |

That's the fundamental question of theology: how many gods are there?
Those who answer zero are atheists. Those who answer one are monotheists. Those who answer more than one are polytheists. I like to see what happens if we let the number increase to infinity. Then it's the same as zero, I think. That is, with an infinite number of gods, each individual one of them loses meaning, so it's the same as having no gods. If a theologist were to require that to be a god one had to be supernatural, then there are no gods. All (everything) that exists is nature. |

Now that is just not true Rick...If you devoute absolute blind faith into something that can't be seen or proven, and works in "mysterious" ways that no man could possibly comprehend, it is self evident that a supernatural being exists (or so I am told by the church who I devote absolute blind faith) |
