You're much too immature to be taken seriously, even on this site. You are excused from this discussion.

Ali said a quote a few years back about how religions may be different but they all seek out truth.
I think that we could maybe all agree that yes we all have different beliefs but the goal to those beliefs are quite similar.

That's lovely sentiment but I think it's less than accurate. Many religions are less interested in seeking and uncovering truth than in declaring that they have already found it.
Jim Fiore,
Just your typical middle-aged circuitry profressor [sic] arguing on an Internet message board about his beloved atheism with...gasp....high school schmucks like me on letsrun.com[/b.
Amaszing [sic].
These threads always wind up the same, don't theys? [sic]
OK, maybe I should have offered this sooner to stop this madness, but I do have a solution for everyone here.
There is a way to resolve this whole God issue to everyone's satisfaction.
For those of you who believe in God, I'm sure you would agree that God supports democracy (because we all know he protects & favors the USA). Of course, in order to have democracy you have to have choice & elections.
So my offer is simple - vote for me for God! I promise to wipe out cancer, poverty, war, crime & every form of hatred. No one will ever get sick or starve again (except for Dick Cheney who is going to instantly get every disease known to man).
For the atheists, I will make an appearance on prime-time TV to prove God exists (and honestly, I'll be as surprised by this development as anyone).
But this solution works for everyone. Believers not only get to meet God firsthand, but all the crap in the world immediately ends. And atheists, well, no more uncertainty and no more need to argue about religion.
Best of all, no one has to worry about going to Hell. Except bin Laden. And Cheney.
VOTE FOR PP FOR GOD IN '06!
to each his own
The prayer was non-denominational and made no reference to J>C> That will cover any of the worlds 3 most common religions as well as a number of Spiritualists. As for the Aetheists, they are on their own anyway, so why should they care.
good call there the WORD.
And another one I missed before. Don't worry, that's my last bvmp of the night.
I would consult Ryan Hall.
A little digression here, I suppose; but as long as we're questioning prayers before races, does anyone have a good explanation for playing the national anthem before sporting contests? WTF does the "Star Spangled Banner"--the NATIONAL ANTHEM OF THE UNITED STATES--have to do with people running around in circles, or putting a ball through a hoop, or hitting one with a stick?
Talk about inappropriate!
Was there an athiest's revival this week at some track camp?
