Well bully for you, however you may not think your lacking, and thats fine, but others do.
Would you think it odd if someone thought Micky Mouse was real, as there is no evidence for him existing either, or Quetzalcoatl the winged serpent?
I don't see how mickey mouse can be compared to Lao Tzu.
Nobody has said they aren't, but there is no evidence that a jesus person ever said them.
I know there is no evidence, there is no evidence of god either, people have faith it makes them happy and gives them hope for when you die.
And thats good, but it does not change the fact she believes in fantasies. Putting a big ? over her head.Well you only need to look at world history for an answer to that.
But on a personal level, If you girlfriend truly believed via a vision that jesus wanted her to kill the woman next door, she would do it.
How can you make that kind of judgement on a person you have never met or even spoke to?. No she would not do that she does not blindly follow rules and commands, even if god herself told her to kill out of cold blood she would refuse I know that 100% because we have alredy debated this.
It has happened so many times before, by good people.
So that means everybody will do it just because other people have in the past?, thats like saying all muslims will turn into suicide bombers if they are told to do it.
"Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."Steven Weinberg
That statement cannot be applied to every religious person, Im pretty sure good people have done evil things and they were Atheists aswell not all religious. I was an Atheist and consider myself a decent person at heart, but I did some evil things.
You cannot generalize with prejudice stereotypes and paint every person with the same brush just because they hold faith. Thats the same kind of mentality that makes religious people stereotype Atheists and say "all Atheists are this or that".
Can you not understand that religious people can also make there own decisions as to what is right and wrong?, not all of them follow everything just because a book says so. You make huge assumptions about a person you have never even spoken too, that is not wise when making judgement calls. Don't you believe in having evidence before making a decision?, you seem to have a type of "faith" that people you don't know all would kill people for no reason just because a vision tells them too.
Come on man that's an unfair accusation which is not true.
peace.
