He's also a one worlder globalist, eugenicsist, who wants to murder over half the population for mother gaia.

Buffet same thing.

Pat Robertson, is a member of the Knights of Malta. He is not a Christian. He's a traitor to America.

You do good things to feel good about yourself and look good in others eyes.

So they'll have to learn the value of a dollar and responsible spending like the rest of us?

So, they won't be trust-fund kids?

Oh, the horror...


Good for him.

No.

Gates is a horrible father. I am glad I am not related to him.

 

[mrtrebus]

No.

Gates is a horrible father. I am glad I am not related to him.

I am sure the feeling is mutual!

 

[StanScratch]

No.

You are wrong.

Bill Gates wants his children to earn their money, not to be born into it like another Paris Hilton.

 

[ragincaucasian]

doing good, altruism, is a facet of social evolution. Be a conniving and murderous prick to everyone and you will face isolation. You need people for survival

You can't contend that "religion" gives you morality when that religion continues to change through generations. Each generations zeitgeist is a testament to that - either "religion's morality" is true and remains consistent, or its just going with the flow.

The United States was founded with the economic structure of the enslavement of other people and degradation of women, so you can't say that your "old time" church is providing some guidance for good.

No He should have never had children if he felt this way.

Yep he died. But there was nowhere for him to go, no. . .

Then again Sagan also remarked "An atheist has to know a lot more than I know. An atheist is someone who knows there is no god. By some definitions atheism is very stupid."

Probably Old Testament material.


You don't have to believe in the Bible to recognize that there might be a higher being "out there". I used to think exactly the way you do. However I realized that particular belief was cold and lifeless. When you begin to lose those you love, your attitudes change. You go from staunch atheist to spiritual believer in an "Afterlife" and benevolent being. The church is an earthly man made invention with rules and regulations that amount to little. "God" is infinitely large and small and exists in ways the church/Bible can ever grasp and understand.
