Shoot first. Ask questions later. God will sort it all out.

"Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend."

For reasons I dont need to get into, this has become a mantra in our home.
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference. ​
 
Become what you are...

You can want in one hand and sh*t in the other, and see which one fills up first...

Both excellent quotes...
 
Nothing left to do but smile,smile smile. Sunshine daydreams,walking thru the tall trees, goin where the wind blows, blooming like a red rose. The sky was yellow and the sun was blue. If you sow ice you're gonna harvest wind. God save the child that rings the bell, might have one good ring you can never tell, one watch by night , one watch by day, if you get confused listen to the music play. R.I.P. Jerry

Okay guys/gals who posted responses to my earlier "God..." post: this isn't something I just made-up, it was something said on an NPR interview on the topic of limits of knowledge - opinions concerning whether god can be proven or disproven. I chose to post it because I think it is pithy and sums up the underlying assumptions of atheist arguments.

It's amazing how I can read pro-God quotes on here, and the FIRST time someone puts something you don't like about the idea of God on hear, you guys freak out and attack...lol - I'm not even an atheist! But I respect the freedom that atheists (should) enjoy in this country. So much for freedom of speech...

Never surprises me that the people who claim to believe in God, especially Christians, are the least tolerant of others' points of view.

Seriously...you guys +1 the idea of God??? LOL!!!

Oh, and btw, L - A - Z - Y (not laSy) is how we spell lazy...
 
I think the thread is called:
WHATS YOUR FAVORITE SPIRITUAL OR PHILISOPHICAL SAYING??

Not "How to insult those who believe in God because of what NPR told me." Or as you wrote, " I chose to post it because I think it is pithy and sums up the underlying assumptions of atheist arguments.

"God is the intellectual cop-out of lazy minds..." was what you posted. Not spiritual or philisophical at all. Just ignorant and offensive. Try going to a Muslim nation and saying that and see how far you get. No offense to Muslims meant here, but Christians are much more tolerant than you profess.

Want a pithy athiest freedom of speech thread? Start one. This was not the thread for your arrogant and inflammatory argument.

"One Nation under GOD, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
Semper FI- Always Faithful. To my GOD, my Country, and my Corps.

Please, point out to me just how L-A-Z-Y I am...
