It is always good to read from someone who is so knowledgeable about the universe that she knows that there is no God. Moreover, it is interesting that the only way you would believe in God was if He behaved exactly as you wanted Him to behave. A very interesting idea.
The truth is, neither you nor anyone else can demonstrate that there is no God. So, your point that there is no God is much less reasonable than those who believe in God.
By the way, it would be good if you could show the world or tell the world where the first subatomic particle came from. You do not need show where the earth came from or how it came to be. You just need to how the first nano-gram of matter appeared. I would certainly be satisfied if you could do that.
America should stop all of its mass killings around the world. For a country and people who have consistently claimed to believe in God and talk more about peace and freedom more than anybody else; they should practice just a little of what they preach.
Think about this. Christian America and Americans have been in a military conflict (initiated by them) every year of its existence. That is, 237 years of conducting killing sprees within its own borders and across the world. In the process, America and christian Americans have killed and destroyed the lives of tens of millions of men, women and children.
So, much for being christian, peaceful and freedom-loving!
If anyone takes a rational look at the history of the world, the conclusion should be natural, Christianity. Christianity has initiated more wars and has killed and destroyed more lives than all of the other religions combined.
The history of every region of the world is the bloody record of Christians and Christianity.
If anyone wants to which country is a bigger threat to the world. Take a look at the last 60 years and count the numbers of invasion and the number deaths cause by that nation.
And if we are willing to tell the truth, the USA has invaded dozens of countries and has killed millions of men, women and children.
No other country of the choice given, except Israel, is nearly close the record of deaths, destruction and human displacements caused by the USA.
Indeed, there has not being a major military conflict, in any part of the world, that was not initiated or otherwise, started by the USA.
It is always instructive to read the nonsense the profoundly ignorant writes. For his state blindness, he knows that America leads the world in freedom of speech with knowing the all communication he engages in being monitored by his government, including the rubbish he spouts off on this forum.
Freedom and free of speech have always been a myth promoted by the deceitful and ignorant, and either case, it is far from the reality of the true situation.
Which has used nuclear weapons and which country has a nuclear pre-emptive use policy? Only one, the USA. Should be the world be more fearful North Korea that has not invaded any other country or the single country that has used nuclear weapons twice and has invaded almost 50 countries? Reasonable people can decide.
A gun is an instrument whose only purpose is cause grave harm, destruction and death.
Of course, for millions of Americans a gun is more important than food and it is the symbol of freedom. Can there be another people that is that dense?
Is there something in the American water and air that makes Americans so obsessed with killing. I know of no other people that have such concentrated focus.
In America, it seems that all killings are supported by the majority of people.
America and Americans have always been obsessed with death and destruction. Very few people bother to recall that America killed millions of Africans and Native Indians in their quest to satisfy their bloody lust.
And so when the number of Indians were sufficiently decreased, they killed more than 750,000 of their own, in order to satisfy the innate lust for blood.
There are millions of Americans, today, who would oppose providing food and shelter for the millions of children who live in poverty. And those same Americans would agree to cut every other budgetary item except military spending. And not surprisingly, those would be the same Americans who would call themselves, Christians.
There are millions of Americans who equate the ability to carry semi- and automatic weapons with freedom, even if you are starving to death.
There cannot be another country on this planet that has been so consumed with killing! At least, I am hoping that there is not another such country.
Which country made threatened another country with military action? The record shows that the only countries that threaten other countries with military strikes are the USA and Israel.
There is no record that any other countries made military threats against any other countries, in spite of what the American people may be led to believe. And in that case, it is always the simplest thing to fool the American citizen. They may be most ignorant of the citizens of any country of the world.
What you are not able to see clearly enough is that you are now looking the material decline of America. So, whether it is the south or the north, it is America and your profound ignorance does not allow you and millions more to the writing on the wall.
The US is obviously the most dangerous country in the world, by far. It is a country tha has used every weapon system it has developed and is the initiator of almost every conflict of a military nature across the globe, since the 1950's.
Moreover, this is not even an opinion. It is a fact. The US has killed more men, women and children since wolrd war II than Russia and China combined. That is a horrendous record, especially, when it is the record of the chief noise-maker of freedom,democracy and christianity.
The premise of the survey was: The US is on the decline and which country would be the next superpower. China certainly is the next superpower and onw reason is that America owes China so much money, it would now require more than a hundrfed years for America to pay off that debt. Moreover, even though China has the second largest economy, it is only at the beginning of the climb to the top. It also has a population that views the world in a very different light from Americans.
A second point of course that China is not democartic, capitalistic or christian, in the western notions of those systems. Those facts have begun to raise doubts in the minds of many Americans about their systems.
I read a report last year that puts America 37th in the performance and outcome of its health care system. And even if that ranking is very wrong, the fact that an international organization could rank America below the tenth position is an open indication that America has lost prestige and influence. These are sure signs of global decline.
On last point of importance, it was repoted in 2011, that China, alone, has given or lend more money to the development and other countries than the world bank and the IMF, combined. The amount was in the billions of dollars. America does not have that kind of money to inlfuence the positions of that many world leaders.
This is off issue and I ask your forgiveness and patience, but you mentioned that you left the church 30 years ago, and I am interested in learning the motivation for that decision. Janze
And you and American leadership have appointed to change the leadership in Iran. Of course, changing national leadership that does allign its interest with the US seems to be American passtime.
The only thing is that Iran is not Iraq. And there just may be some very unpleasant surprises that America and Americans did not consider.
The fact is, America is the only country that has used nulcear weapons agaisnt civilians. Not Russia, not China, not Germany, not North Korea, just the peace-loving Americans. There some kind of deadly irony in that situation.
If there is a country to be feared, it should be America. It has used every weapon system it has developed against men, women and children and killed tens of millions of them.
Strange thing neither you nor any other American can name a single country that Iran has invaded, in the last hundred years, but the American list would stretch into nearly a hundred. Reality is never common, but it always exist.
Of all the countries that have nuclear weapons which one has used it agaisnt civilians? And what or who gives the US the authority to determine Iran's national policy? Ignorance is more dangerous than any nuclear wepaon and Americans are especially ignorant.
You are such a man of peace that if your neighbour came took over your house, you will negotiate with him which part of the kitchen you will live and keep your family. Please tell me where you live so that I can send a homeless person there to throw you out of your house.
It is remarkable what passes for intelligence and reason.
The death of a single individual brings no glory to any man. However, America and Americans seem ever ready to kill and destroy and to do so with some kind perverse eagerness and equally perverse glee.
America has been responsible for the deaths of too many men, women and children, already. A million dead and more than four million made refugees, from Iraq alone.Is that not enough?
America had its own civil war in which more than 750,000 people were killed. That was almost 16,000 men women and children every single month, more than 500 a day. When will it be that America would have shed enough blood? When will it be that America would caused enough destruction and suffering in the world?
Only in America would this question be seen as a question that is related to personal rights. That says verything about the society.
The ability to carry a gun, in America, is a far more important issue than childhood poverty or education. Americans must be the most ignorant people on earth.
Israel has no position to "allow" any people to have a state. Israel is occupying Palestinian land. Does your neighbour has the right and the authority to you whether you can have a garden or whether your children can play in your own yard?
It is extraordinary to me that questioner thinks that Israel has any such power to determine what the Palestinians do or do not do!
Since when it is wrong for an occuppied people to resist their occupier? If Mexico occupied California, whould Californians have a right and a duty to resist the occupation by any means and at all times?
Christians who claim to have an acute sense of fairness have lost their sense of rightness and justice in matters related to the occupation of Palestine.Occupiers are the aggressors.
Would be acceptable for Russia to invade Israel and occupy the land and tell the Israelis what to do and when to do it? Until that scenario is right and acceptable to professing christians, no one, in his right mind, should accept Israel's occupation of Palestine as just and right.
Israel does not have any authority to determine the course for any people. The question and the questioner are prejudice and unjust!
Christians have lived in the Middle East,among the Muslims, long before America was a nation. And the violence and the fracturedness that now characterize the region and the people were partly thrust upon the Midlle East by the Christian west.
As late as 2003 before George Bush invaded Iraq and killed a million people, Christians, Muslims and Jews lived quite amicably together. Then enter the American christians and now there are no Jews there and Christians, who have been part of that Society for generations, are now leaving and are more afraid than they have ever been.
Somebody ought to look at the role of western christians and Americans christians, in particular, in the world.

RE: Fox news: discussion about NUKING A MUSLIM COUNTRY?
I am trying to understand. Are Americans really human? Do Americans really think in the way their words seem to suggest?
