I "believe" that there has been "climate change" through the billions and billions (somewhere between 4 and 16) of the age of this earth.......and it's NOT human caused. I don't KNOW if there is a "GOD" (which is dog spelled backward), but I'm open to the possibility and I'm trying to live my life as if there may be (trying to treat others as I would wish to be treated) and frequently talk to him/her and ask for forgiveness.

I believe that there are more scientists now that believe in a higher power than there used to be. This life MAY be all there is for us......but if there IS something beyond this, I'm hopeful for that, too. I'm even open to the possibility that we get "recycled", but I'm not sure that I really want to come back and go through this again.
Is there a Heaven or Hell? I dunno, but I believe that if there is, there will be lots of people going to both.
I'm not sure what all that makes me........maybe "normal"......???

I wish I had your level of self-control, 49er.
Thanks!
As you can see from my latest post, that person with self-control is history.

That's okay.... At least you haven't quoted outrageous "facts" and dropped words like pagans and heathens!

So your knowledge of religious people comes solely from your snake-handling cousins in Calhoun County, West Virginia?

You have to know that there will always be the push to blame Republicans when a Democrat over reaches and rams a piece of crap down Americans throats. I get a chuckle out of that except that they really believe it.

The EPA??? Good grief!!! Wrong source to provide a link to. That's the same (collectively speaking) bunch of pathological liars who have told us they're not listening to our phone calls, collecting or reading our emails, that healthcare and health insurance will get cheaper and if you want to keep your existing insurance, you will be able to. Every single thing they've told us so far has been exactly the opposite of what is or will be reality.
Now, these clueless morons are about to get us into World War III under some drummed-up pretense to save face over equally stupid statements and events that can't be verified. Everything is upside down in the world now.

Boy, this thread has really gotten OT from original topic. So I will guess we have 18 more pages of this which I just admittedly contributed to.

There's actually a longer list titled "List of Christian thinkers in science" in a Wiki article.

There are other links to articles on the Internet about "the God particle", too.

Obama is a warmonger. He likes using the big guns and bombs.
We can't afford medical care, food stamps, welfare, Medicaid, employment and now he is starting another war that no one can predict the extent, duration or cost of.
Going to bomb again in Syria this time.

Hypocrites!

Why is he 'starting another war' when a rogue and disgusting gov't has poisoned their own people?

Really??? My list is longer than your list? That's the funniest thing I've heard in a while!
And BTW, the atheist list is longer, much longer if you take into account that very few identified as an "atheist" before the 20th century, and agnostics like Albert Einstein aren't included.

Except that there are other links to lists (of scientists from other religions) noted in that article that are apparently not included in that list.
For what it's worth, I haven't even been to church (except for a couple of marriages and a funeral or two) for about 30 years. I've always had issues with "organized religion", but don't really consider myself a non-believer......just open-minded about it.
