Well, I'm not, but most of my family packs guns in their purses, so I'm not afraid for my life. But I agree on one thing-what happens is meant to be.

Over here we're not allowed to have guns. Or well...You've got to have a Hunter's License or other License. But there's shooting all over the country anyway with UZIs and Rifles like AK-47. Most often just smaller handguns but it happens that someone shoots with an AK. Quite often a Uzi. Not around here where I live though.

Just put your faith in God, pray to take your troubles away.

Its always nice to know someones listening.

Or you can take and get hooked on Anti-Depressants. One takes some of the problems away and helps you work through them, Youth groups or Adult Christian groups are good to get involved in for a good support group. The other makes you feel happy no matter what happens. They both make it less painful.

I joined a youth group and I am not as lonely as I was. I am happy alot of times too.


Enough. I'm sick and tired of this eccentric religious psychobabble�the world, the galaxy and the universe happened by chance, simple. I believe that it happened by chance, because we cannot prove that a god created it. It will all cease to exist by chance. If a star supernovas within 30,000 light years of earth, earth will be destroyed. The End.


Can you prove that a god didn't make it. It is the ultimate paradox.

Now to quote the brilliant Roddenberry…

"I condemn false prophets, I condemn the effort to take away the power of rational decision, to drain people of their free will--and a hell of a lot of money in the bargain. Religions vary in their degree of idiocy, but I reject them all. For most people, religion is nothing more than a substitute for a malfunctioning brain."

"We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes." (in Free Inquiry, autumn, 1992)

"I've always thought that, if we did not have supernatural explanations for all the things we might not understand right away, this is the way we would be, like the people on that planet. [ST:TNG Who Watches the Watchers] I was born into a supernatural world in which all my people -my family- usually said That is because God willed it, or gave other supernatural explanations for whatever happened. When you confront those statements on their own, they just don't make sense. They are clearly wrong. You need a certain amount of proof to accept anything, and that proof was not forthcoming to support those statements."

I hate to go off topic here, but that is wrong. Earth would only be 'engulfed' if our sun went supernova. Other star systems do not affect our own. Science has proven this. In the 17th century a star in the milky way went supernova and was observed by astronomers. The star was 600LY away.
