Few religions are definite about the size of Heaven, but on the planet Earth the Book of Revelation (ch. XXI, v.16) gives it as a cube 12,000 furlongs on a side. This is somewhat less than 500,000,000,000,000,000,000 cubic feet. Even allowing that the Heavenly Host and other essential services take up at least two thirds of this space, this leaves about one million cubic feet of space for each human occupant ... This is such a generous amount of space that it suggests that room has also been provided for some alien races or -- a happy thought -- that pets are allowed.

During the presidential campaign of 1880, the Christian Union made the startling admission that, of the nineteen men who, up to that time, had held the office of President of the United States, not one, with the possible exception of Washington, had ever been a member of a Christian church. - John Remsburg
If atheism is a religion, then health is a disease - Clark Adams
Is god willing to prevent evil but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him god? - Epicurus (341-270 BCE)
Why Johnny Can't Read - Now available on VHS and multimedia CD-ROM!
For those of you who have children and don't know about it, we have a nursery downstairs. - On a church sign, Dallas
A diagnostic is someone who doesn't know whether there are two gods.
A dyslexic, agnostic insomniac - one who lies awake at night wondering if there really is a dog...
A good sermon should have a good beginning and a good ending, and they should be as close together as possible.

Its another:
"god isnt real in my head so nobody else can believe in god because i dont" thread.
Meaning?
Stop trying to prove god. God is merely an emotion that we have named Hope and Faith. Nothing more, nothing less.

| Indeed, it's called faith for a reason, it's not called fact.

How is having faith and hope considered weak?

Faith and hope come in times of crisis, and instead of admitting defeat or facing the consequences you pray on something that isn't there to give you strength or a way out. It merely proves that you do not have the stones to face whatever it is you're facing, slowing down the process of rational thought.

The key here is that it keeps people going in the worst of times.
In my opinion, a person without hope or faith has no dreams. A person with no dreams has no future. Therefore, faith/hope is a powerful emotion, wether it originates from a set of beliefs or from another source, it doesnt make anyone weak.
Someone in a "time of crisis" without hope wouldnt stand 1 second, if they have hope, at least they keep going on. Even if they fail, hope allowed them to keep going for some time. Its an emotion that gives
strength to the person.
Although i do not care about religion, i only love the fact that it gives people faith and hope.

Hehe, you're absolutely right. It was my poor choice of words that made me fail at this point. Having faith in something, or having hope something will be alright in a rational manner are absolutely required for surviving in this shithole we call a world.
My text above should be referenced to only in terms of religious faith and hope in a higher being.
