I belive in God. I mean the basics of Science even teaches that nothing comes from nothing, everything has to be created. I mean look at our beloved plant, the Ganja, even the very sight of it is beautiful. Everything natural has to have had a creator so intelligent that even the high IQ Scientists keep finding new things that make them rewrite their theory's. Im not saying all science is wrong, just that scientists like to tell themselves they're clever and think up lots of different idea's other than that there could be a God.

The very reason i got into growing marijuana was that, the government have banned it. God created all things, therefore he created marijuana. Is the government saying God made a mistake? How dare they try to ban a natural living thing, trying to make it extinct. Who know's the medicinal capabilities it has? Lets hope those big brain, high IQ scientist dont discover too late.

By that logic, mistermark, we should grow poppies, coca, belladonna, mushrooms, et cetera. I don't grow because it's illegal, I grow because I believe I have the right to. It's one thing to break rules because they are immoral and unjust, it's another to spite the prohibitors. Every plant has its place. I don't believe there is some god that decided to put plants on our planet for our use. I believe plants deserve as much respect as any animal, and not just as some resource for us to exploit. Pardon my rambling, I'm a bit stoned. I'm not so much disagreeing with you, but I don't believe in a single Creator. But to each their own, ya?

Brazko,


Einstein said yes he believed in god, but he didn't believe in a god as a supernatural being that created "heaven and earth" and so forth. He believed in a much looser sense of god such as god is nature, much like John Muir (a similarly brilliant mind) did. In which case god could be anything in the natural world (or could just be the natural world), not what Christers are taught in the Holly Bible. Lets not also forget that Thomas Jefferson, one of the most brilliant people the world has ever known and one of our founding fathers, was a staunch atheist.

Also, it's not an argument of if you believe in god (in a christian sense) then you're stupid. It's just a study that shows that there is a trend to not belive in highly inteligent people. Statistics, much like logic, cannot be argued.

You wonder how smart Albert "wuz"? Out of respect, I'm not even going to comment on that.

And all this talk about the bible through out this thread... come on people! Look, weather you believe or not believe all the bible is, is a book of fables designed to guide you through life, love the people who are in it, and be a better person. Any true believer will probably tell you that they don't need a book to worship their god.

More dastardly deeds are committed in the name of religion than any other cause. Who do you think is backing the so called "War on Drugs" that robs all of us of our civil rights and makes it so we have to act as criminals just to enjoy a little smoke.

I'll stop now, as I could go on for days. Thanks to whoever posted this, the article was a good read.

.......UMmmm...You're right, it's not an arguement........, so all of that what you said about Einstein, Founding Fathers, Holy Bible (n ur case of speaking), and all it seems possible you can go on about.............and Albert wuuzzzz an....Satire attempt, sorry I missed.........

Keep spreading the knowledge and doing your Research......

I would imagine the reason for the trend is because people with higher IQ generally have more education. Education (while not always) usually relies on science, which generally says that to claim anything as true substantial evidence must to support it. Even then it's not set it stone since we know our understanding of things is not perfect and thus subject to change.

So when they're presented with an idea (religion) that is incredibly inflexible and not supported in the same way that most scientific ideas are support, they tend to be more skeptical.

i can prove god does not exist


the simple fact that there are hundreds of religions in this world and only one can be right, means that 99.99999% of all the other religions are wrong and that 99.9999999% of religous people are actually praying to nothing!


i take it a step further and say if there's gonna be so many religions out there who insist they are right when we know by default that 99.9999% of them are wrong, then you can surmize that actually 100% of them are wrong


and there bees no god.




chew on that for a moment and tell me what you come up with
