WELCOME!
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?

Supernaut: Welcome, I think. I'm working on whether I feel the need for a heather chaplain or not.

Well, since 'heathen' changes the meaning of 'chaplain' sufficiently, you can't do any harm! I had to take my cousin to Dallas and back from here in Fort Worth, and he is so 'spirit-filled' I can hardly stand him. He believes in 'demons' as well. He credits God with making it possible for him to beat alcoholism. I like him, but I wish he'd get a clue. |

Welcome Supernaut, I haven't strayed much further than this small group on the webs (with my atheism), I find it saves me having to repeat myself. I did have a good two year stint on a christian website trying to win hearts and minds. But eventually they found my reason and logical break down of their ideas to be offensive and I was IP banned. I had fun there though, and I do think I helped one or two out. |

Interesting, the only other heathen Chaplain I'm familiar with was this guy named Charlie and he misspelled it. Welcome "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." - George Santayana

I had a friend who's younger brother was shot in the head....extremely unfortunate situation....and said that it was god's will because his younger bro must have had a tumor in his head that the bullet removed....and blah blah...I was horrified at his rationale for the shooting.....but that seems to be the way of theism. |

That's beyond anything my fundie cousin would say (I hope). Just for the sake of argument, even if it were God's will, removing the hypothetical tumor in that way didn't help the "patient" any. What absurd rubbish! |
