Mate, I was just having fun with the concept.
I honestly find it amusing that someone can dismiss my entire belief system, (and that of billions, unchanged in human history - being, one singular and unique creator) with the old 'chemical imbalance' escape.
I don't believe you are stupid. I believe you have arrived at your conclusions due to rational, intelligent thought processes. You suggested I am mentally ill.
I find that funny

Isn't that interesting. I feel the same way. I wonder how many others feel like this.

Well said Leonis.

Actually a hell of a lot of us find it funny . Just watching you and Dram duking it out all over the shop is so funny, like watching 2 puppies scrapping LOL!!!

Well, It wasn’t a very subtle attempt, but of course you’ve got plenty of time to practice.
Don’t worry Mate, You’ll get better soon, just leave it to yorick next time eh?

The old “20,000 fanatics can’t be wrong” argument,
Just because lots of people believe in it, it doesn’t make it automatically right Y’know?

*I* never said that you were mentally ill, the great Troll Master tried to insinuate that I did, It's a pity you swallowed his propaganda, But well... never mind.

How do you know I didn't swallow his propaganda?

You presume much.

I suggest you leave it there Dramnek. Like it or not, telling people they are experiencing hallucinations so that you can tear apart their testimonies as to why they love living is not a good way to win friends and influence people.

Just let it lie.

Clever, clever, almost like a set up, hmm?

You’re the one who keeps bringing it up again, If you have a problem, take it to E-Mail or P.M.
Rather than, making all these little sniping posts and comments,
well… the balls in your court now bob, lets just see what you serve up ehh?

Posted by Dramnek in the locked "Religion Type" thread How do you know you are? how do you know that that is god? Occams razor makes it more likely that your are in fact for example suffering from Schizophrenia or chemotropic halucinations.

There you have it. Schizophrenia and Chemotropic hallucinations for people aware of God in their life.

Here is a post detailing the misuse of Occam's Razor.

In this instance the Christians insanity is an unproven assumption. Occam's razor is meaningless in that scenario.

[/QUOTE]Sorry, I HAVE to comment on this. This is the sort of comment that makes me quite annoyed, as it suggests that those who do NOT believe in God have LESS nice lives than those who DO. Please, look at it this way:

Life is a meal. Believing in God is a spice, let us say, cinnamon. We are all eating different meals. To you, belief in God might make the meal PERFECT. While to me it might make it unpleasant. See? So wishing that I add cinnamon to my life just because it makes your meal better might in fact be wishing that I worsen my life. Of course believing in God might make my life better. But please, don't assume that it's the best for everyone.
