First off I just want to say I come in here to gain and pass knowledge about ATV's, not for a Sunday school class.
The September 11th bombing was a very tragic thing that touched alot of people, religious and not religious! I am very fortunate that I didn't lose any family or friends in the bombing or plane crashes.
It bothers me that you seem to say we are to blame because we didn't pray or didn't pray enough or whatever it was you had to say!
The reason this happened is because there are sick bastards like Osama Bin Laden and his followers in this world!
Anyway please take your religion to another website and leave www.atvconnection.com for people that want to talk about ATV's and ATV experiences!

NorthernEdge,

You are right. This is an ATV forum. However, someone must want to hear this because over 740 people have hit on this topic. I don't know what the majority it but just looking at this forum, you are the minority. I also understand your anger towards the things of God. If there would have been a topic on how to build your house or what car to buy, you wouldn't have gotten angry at that. It never amazes me that people don't want to deal with the eternal life questions - what does amaze me is the things that you will believe instead of just taking that step of faith. For every Christian that's on here, we know something that you don't know and we are just trying to let you know what it is. Why would people purposely try to anger you? It doesn't benefit them any and no one likes to be criticized but yet they do it out of love for another human being.

So Mickey, what the hell is the meaning of life? You've obviously done some research (I bet you've researched motorcycle engines in more than one publication though) and I guarantee if you look at it objectively you still have no clue. Would you send off your engine to a person that learned everything he knows out of one book? I should hope not.

Why does there have to be a meaning? Why is it not good enough that you are alive and well? Why on earth was there a void in your life, fill it with life rather than what somebody else thinks your life should be? I'm not attacking you at all, I'm just using you as the example.

I live every day like there is no tomorrow, how else could/should you live? I cant figure out why its so hard for people to just let it be, if there is a god, great. If not, big deal. How about when your dead your dead (dead would be synonomous with, well, dead!). I think its hard for people to realize that when they're dead there is no more. They have to believe that they can go on somewhere else. I'm perfectly content with my life, I do everything in my power to make it 100% worthwhile and I couldnt be happier.

They say when one is born they are sinners, that has to be absolutely the most unintelligent thing I've ever heard in my life. How about this, they are a baby that was a product of two people having a good time. I would compare it to animals but You (His masses) dont believe they have souls, I guess they arent sinners. Its all mumbo-jumbo juju if you ask me.

You have received over 740 hits because of your subject line. If I put "Local ATV dealership giving away 1000 quads" I would have thousands of hits.
For you to call me a minority is very inaccurate. One of the thing's that is great about the U.S. is we have choices and I believe we choose our own and each other's destiny. With that I mean Joe Shmo might decide to get intoxicated and drive his care into on coming traffic and kill himself and other innocent people or he might go off the road hit a telephone poll and kill himself, in both instances he chose others destiny and his own. It's the same for what Osama Bin Laden's people did to all those innocent people.
I don't expect people to believe in the same things as me.
It's not that I have anything against people believing in a higher power I just believe in myself more than someone else.
I guess I have rambled on enough and back to my point this is a ATV forum so lets keep it at that!
