Paige (Time and Religion)

I'm not gonna lie I didnt read all the posts but most of them. :) First off i agree with everyone on the time theory. Whoever said that time is just a way to keep everyone in sync is right. I'm not that time could really be used for much more. I mean sure I agree with the so called bed times and work hours but it's just to keep everyone in sync! Everyone else is doing the same thing! We are all in sync. I wonder what it would be like if humans didnt use clocks...i wonder if we would be more easy goin or more stressed because we would have to rely on instincts and natural time(brightness, habits of things around us, ect) Take away clocks but not the concept of time and see what happens.

Religion

I totally agree with Haney! How was God made??!! How are people supposed to believe in something that just came from no where and then made more people. What if was a brain washer and convinsed everyone that he made them because i mean am i really supposed to believe that he was by himself at one point. How long did it take this God person to realize he could make people and animals and the earth and water? He would have had to die before he realized that...but i guess that brings up another point that he is super human because he did all this so maybe he won't ever die or whatever. How come he is the only "super human" I could see that maybe he didnt want to make any more like him, but it brings back up, where in the heck did he come from! I believe in Jesus because he was real person, but how did he come back to life? Was he really clinically dead when he supposidly died on the cross?? He could have just been wounded physically to the point of exhaustion or something. People can survive to a certain point without food or water. I probably don't know all about it but that is what is coming across to me. I also think that God could just be a security blanket for people. Like a teadybear to a child. God just gives people in that if they pray enough something good will come. A teadybear gives comfort like something that can keep all your secrets and eventually makes you feel better just because. Same with God. It's a mind game, you trick yourself into thinking that things will be ok because you think that God is working on it. I'm not sure how prayers apply to the healing and helping of people. I think it just happens.
