I’m not referring to jack shit bro. No human has ever been able to answer the question of where we came from or why things are the way they are with any sort of proof. That includes the Christians and the Atheists. I’m surprised to see you, of all people, insinuate that my opinion is based, once again, on the Bible. It’s not. It’s a fact. No one has ever been able to answer the age old questions, and no one ever will. Again, our minds just can’t handle it. It is what it is (meaning the stuff we do, how we feel, etc.). People can only offer suggestions…like Adam and Eve or Monkeys.
You took that too literally. I didn’t mean we can’t comprehend EVERYTHING that we don’t see. But when it comes to the big complex questions like how the first human came to be…we humans can’t comprehend it without seeing TANGIBLE proof. Again, we can only offer suggestions of Adam and Eve or Monkeys. Belief doesn’t have to be tangible.
Not really sure of what you’re trying to catch me on here. All I’m saying is that it is what it is. We just naturally don’t like to be robbed and when we are, we fight over it (either civilly or violently). If you notice the end of my paragraph, I said, “Or something stupid like that”…that was supposed to be taken as kind of a not serious attempt at answering that question. I guess what I was trying to get at is that I don’t think one person came up with the concept of theft. It was a natural instinct placed in us. We’re territorial and don’t like our stuff taken from us. So, no one made that ‘rule’. It was ingrained in us from the moment we took our first breath of air.
I agree. But that doesn’t answer the question of where that ‘nature’ comes from. No one can answer that question for certain. Is it something we’re born with automatically? Is it something we’re taught? If it’s taught, how did the first human come to realize it? Or was it instilled by a higher being of some sort?
Hence my point that we can’t comprehend half the crap we wonder about and why debating such deep things as this is nothing more but a way to kill time. No one is going to get any closer to answering any sort of questions by reading a thread like this, or participating in a thread like this.
We don’t know why we are the way we are in majority of aspects. We know VERY little about ourselves in terms of man kinds history and how it originated. We know what happened after humans began to live in groups, etc. but not of how the first man came to be, etc. Again, I reiterate, it’s all just a bunch of suggestions. A lot of it is BELIEF, not fact. Atheists have beliefs just like Christians do. I’m not in the business of telling people their beliefs are wrong. You believe whatever the hell you want. We’ll find out who was right in the end.
Now if you want to discuss something like politics in this manner, that is game because politics was invented by us and we know how it originated, etc. Those questions can be answered with a more definite answer. But when it comes to why we steal, or why we like to go fast, or where the first man came from, that’s all suggestions and thoughts and beliefs. Nothing else.
