    I pose the question in this festive season
    which do you believe in more

    The All Powerful God
    or
    Aliens (not the ones with the acid blood the normal ones who are friendly)

    you don't like WORSHIP aliens...... just which do you think more likely exists.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,105 ✭✭✭Tyrrial


    who really believes in god now anyway. i'd beleive in Aliens before i'd believe in a celibate preist for a start.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 747 ✭✭✭Cherry


    I believe we had this conversation this morning?

    To reiterate .. I don't believe in God, Jesus, yadda yadda.
    I don't believe in aliens either.

    :p

    I had to be difficult.

    Funny you should mention aliens! The martians land 19:00 GMT on frequency 91.6 Mhz and 88.1 Mhz on 26/12/02.

    Raggamuffin are you using my God or Aliens ploy to try and pick up women again?!!!

    I told you the last time that i have the patent on that!!!

    Anyway it only works for girls trying to pick up girls...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 747 ✭✭✭Cherry


    Girl on girl action featuring God & aliens. Hmm.. sounds like a Swedish porn flick.

    I'm gonna try the God & aliens thing tonight then. Nyuck nyuck.

    Do you ever wonder if God could bake a burrito so hot that even he couldn't eat it?

    Also why do Aliens keep showing themselves only to paranoid red necks in the middle of nowhere USA? Surely they could just fly into major city's and say hello?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 747 ✭✭✭Cherry


    Independence Day, my dear. We saw how humans reacted to the nice cuddly animatronic aliens popping down with a friendly hello.

    See also: Mars Attacks.

    Are there any movies portraying aliens as nice?! Other than E.T. That was just crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,057 ✭✭✭Wacker


    ET was what it was. Its a kids movie, okay? And as kids movies go, it is probably the best one ever.

    But think of this: given human history, with the likes of the Conquistadors, if we found a planet inhabited by an easily defeated race, can you seriously imagine humanity NOT simply kicking their teeth in? Well, I can't.

    It does seem a bit unlikely that aliens have come to earth without us all knowing it, though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 655 ✭✭✭Raggamuffin


    are phantom broadcasting the oringinal war of the worlds later on?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18 crashtestmonkey


    If there is a god, he definitly chills with aliens.
    Our Galaxy is middleaged, and the possiblity of there being other life out there is huge, but it may not have evolved past the bacterial stages, or if it did, it was probably already wiped out by an ELE. Maybe god comes in the form of a huge asteroid, or a huge gamma ray burst from a hypernova. who knows.:D

    I believe in Space Monkeys.

    God does exist, so do Aliens.
    But I like Aliens more.

    The Conquistadors killed off the Incas & the Aztecs & various other Indian tribes by diseases such as herpes & syphilis. Also by kidnapping their leader & threatening to murder him. Not cause they were "easily defeated" but cause the Conquistadors were disease-ridden sly little gits. But I digress..

    E.T is ok in its own right but doesn't compare to Mars Attacks, if only for the sheer cheese factor.

    "Spaceman f***** an ape, then cut out on the date, and now it' s much too late, the spaceship has escaped "

    i'll take my chances with whats behind curtain six
    seeing what's happening around
    cos nothing is better than the curse of religion
    is it fear of finity?
    an end to a mystery they keep figuring out
    you feel this is it and attempt to make the most of it
    but its all inside and you are the only key......
    because god is only a dollar sign that glistens with a
    nicotine pull...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭the66electric


    God - Old grey wise all white guy up in heaven letting the chips fall were they may down here.

    Aliens - Weird penis shaped cretures that chase Sigourney weaver down and have inner mouth things and acid for blood.



    I know which i think is cooler...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 655 ✭✭✭Raggamuffin


    I already told you, i'm not talking about the acid blood aliens.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭the66electric


    Are we talking about glowing spindley big eyed Close Encounters 'lets live together new friends' then? As far as i'm concerned, HR Gigers aliens are a more challenging prospect.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 655 ✭✭✭Raggamuffin


    game over man


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭the66electric


    Get away from her you BITCH!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭PiE


    Isn't it obvious?

    God is an alien. We're aliens. God (an alien) put us here as an experiment.

    What a failure we turned out to be.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭the66electric


    Ok now i'm confused. Possibly coz its 7.50 in the morning and i have been up all night, but more about this theory of my God...

    Oh ye of little faith, this can all be sorted simply, GET OUT THERE AND BUY 'SONGS 4 WORSHIP'!!!!

    It features the hits 'My God is an awesome God' 'Celebrate Jesus celebrate' and 'Lord you lift me up on high'...

    In him...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 454 ✭✭bandit


    Shine jesus shine u foooooooolll!!!!!!!!
    Of course there aliens how naive can you be to believe we are the only life form in this endless universe????
    and E.T. was a pedophile , ask 66electric why i cant explain it as well as he can......

    About god check out my signature below

    Anyone one ever see the South Park version of God? Its beyond funny...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 153 ✭✭startled_frog


    That South Park episode was very funny.
    Everyones (nearly everyones) vision of god is an old man with white hair and a white beard.
    Are Santa Claus and God related?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 153 ✭✭Morn


    Santa Claus is actually the creator of all things and ruler of the universe - but he got tired of the paperwork and just wanted to go around giving out presents to kids (and who wouldn't ;-) so he created 'God' to deal with stuff on his behalf. Could be true...
    :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭the66electric


    One difference.

    Santa Claus does not exist.

    God, on the other hand, is-

    No wait...

    Um...

    I was going to...

    Um...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 406 ✭✭shep the malevolent pixie


    how come santa is an anagram of satan? that really upsets me...:(

    maybe it's something to do with consumerism and...oh f*ck it. i got bubbles that you can catch from my sister! you can *CATCH* them! it's really cool. :)
