Why has religion retained its appeal?

Just been to Leeds. They were walking through town there singing hara rama krishna singing and dancing. Fun to watch.

Legendary? I never realised that you held me in such high regard. It's not often that I blush but, oowh, Cyclone, you've brought on that warm, fuzzy feeling. And I like it.

 

Yeah, you're a leg end in your own lifetime. Infamous almost. Well done.

Cyclone, c'mon now, enough superlatives for one day. You're taking this hero worship thing too far now and I'm feeling a little uncomfortable to be honest, although, you know what they say about never meeting your hero's in real life don't you? I'd only dissapoint you Cyclone, so as much as it pains me to say this to you, it's probably best if we remain anonymous posters as I'd hate to shatter your illusions of me.

 

P.S It's not you, it's me.

You realise that infamous is a bad thing right? Or have you redefined the word?

Having opinions that differ to most isn't a bad thing Cyclone, they're just opinions; eveybody entitled to an opinion. It's each to their own isn't it?

 

Take this man-crush you have for me, not eveybody would be as open about it as you've bee, it takes true courage to stand out from the crowd and I admire you for that, regardless of what other posters might think of you because it's each to their own. :thumbsup:

Something could be outside the context of time, and have similar properties, a time 2.0 if you like. Just as there could be multiple instances of the universe phenomena, there could be multiple instances of (or dimensions to) 'time'.

 

Why assume there is only one time phenomena?

That would be a phenomenon...

Throughout the ages religion has taken different forms,localised idol worship,worship of nature and natural phenomena, depending on the size and socia -economic situation, when the population got to a certain size up comes the idea of one God.Is that because the population needed a more centralised God to cope with the amount of people. I certainly think so.A God that is on everybody's side is very convenient for our super tribes.

You know I really don't like you. I find your illogic, question slipping, word redefining 'debate' to be annoying. I only counter your ridiculous assertions so that someone else isn't mislead.

 

Opinions are like what kind of body part? Everyone has one, but you shouldn't be showing them in public or talking about them.
