'jumpbikejames' no need to be derogatory man. I'm atheist myself but its stupid to make fun of other people because they have a different belief from you. accept people for who they are.
ZachHinton11 Loves to attribute the good things in life to a fictional entitiy....enough already.
Thank science and engineering for the chariots that allow them to enjoy gravity in such an awesome way.
To believe in God you don't have to believe in religion. If you think that humans are the greatest thing ever created, you are being quite narrow minded and very dumb, considering another earth like planet has been found, you really think we are all thats going on out there?
Whats wrong with people speaking their mind about their beliefs? If you don't believe in Religion than that's up to you and nobody gives a shit. This is directed at you BikeTrials...
"Spou-Unit" I too credit scientific research and engineering for the construction of mtn bikes and most man made products. However, do you honestly think its a "coincidence" that all the materials (metal, rubber, oil etc.) just happen to be on earth? does it not seem completely planned that we have the perfect materials available to construct things as incredible as jets, race cars, bikes and so on....It is simply impossible for such organization to be derived from anything but the will of a creator, in this case God. For anyone who finds comments crediting God irritating, I am not sorry and I will not apologize because they can and will change you. Thank God, Live and Love.
Come on guys, stop hating on religion! I'm atheist, and disagree with what the religious people here are saying, but after reading this, I want to be religious, just because all of the atheists are just pointlessly bashing the religious people! When the religious people say that God made something, simply state that you believe in a different theory, and explain why, without bashing them. At the end of the day, there are many explanations, all of which with evidence, but none of which are fact, so believe in the one you find most convincing.
Man you guys are rediculous!!! Let the man say whatever the f*ck he wants to say as long as it is not derogatory... Nobody is trying to jam religion into nobody and if you're Atheist than so be it... Whatever... You non believers or whatever you want to call yourselves are going to prohibit us from saying "FOR GOD'S SAKE" now? I don't give a rats ass if you guys are Atheists why would you be pissed at the comment that started this whole thing??? Is everyone supposed to pull off their Xmas lights just because you are driving by now? WTF? Another thing, while we are on the subject... When us "Believers" take our annual religious holidays, do you guys say, no no, I'm going to continue working cuz this holiday doesn't apply to me? My guess is no.
Exactly my point @ScaryGerry, some comments that atheists have been writing are ridiculous, and stupid. I'm atheist but I respect other people aren't and can see why they aren't. BikeTrails is just being an idiot, and generally giving atheists a bad name!
ok, ive got a question for all you atheists... how do you think the universe was formed? The big bang? well, where did the big bang come from? you cant make something out of nothing...
ok, ive got a question for all you atheists... how do you think the universe was formed? The big bang? well, where did the big bang come from? you cant make something out of nothing... God tends to disagree with you, since he came out of nothing.
Can we please just leave belief out of Pinkbike? Pinkbike is one of the only sites that I can cruise around with out stumbling across a "bible thumpers vs. liberals who want everyone to know how liberal they are" argument and I like it that way. Keep religion and religion bashing out of Pinkbike.
yea, well what created the big bang? if there ever was one... and if you think about it, how could a single-celled organism transform into us 50 trillion celled organisms?
well....God isn't *that* good when he fails to stop disease , war , famine and everything else that's not so nice on wonderful planet Earth Just sayin' *braces for impact
no kidding, I'm 19 and i'm getting hip surgery tomarrow, God is a (in my current state of mind) relentless being. why blame MTB, when I can blame "something" els !
(for you haters out there, Dont take this to heart)
epavichthesavage, Ive seen so many people make the same remark that "if theres a God, why would he let so and so die, or let a tsunami wipe out a village, or my father get cancer..."
the truth is that all these seemingly terrible things are put into our lives so that we learn to appreciate the gift of life we have. If there was no death, life would suck on earth. Biking would be stupid cause u could huck off anything with no sense of accomplishment. No doubt disease is terrible but is sure as heck makes us appreciate good health and long to help those who arent as fortunate. God designed our lives on earth to be shifty and uncomfortable because he wants us to turn to him once we recognize how helpless we are on our own. He makes life so much better and less "shifty". A relationship with Him is the most real and long-lasting thing there is.
Well sorry I don't believe in any of that , but I respect others opinions so I didn't make it to offend anyone at all. Merely myself thinking out loud I guess. But I don't get why people attack your harmless comment when it's just someones beliefs. No one has the right to force people into what they can or can't believe , and obviously it goes both ways. I think some of the atheists in here need to tone it down...a tad
If there is a God, even he is rolling his eyes at the lot of you debating his existence on Pinkbike... We get it; some of you believe in a higher power, some of you are offended that anyone believes in anything... the rest of us don't really care, please just shut up and let it go already.
Zach Hinton.. What is it I am giving up on? Don't get me wrong, I love reading internet arguments. BUT... Comparing your pinkbike Jesus fight to Civil Rights is a joke, and if I were capable of being offended I probably would be.
Boss - why are you 2 hours late from lunch?!?! Me - Freeride Fridays boss. Boss - WHAT?! Freeride Friday, Draggon from Pinkbike started it. Boss - Oh, Draggon from Pinkbike, no problem then, you may as well take the rest of the day off, the weather is too nice to be in the office anyway. Wait, dont forget your GoPro camera, it was on your desk...
Hahaha, that was awesome!
I see that there is a desire requiring action and if needed I will take it upon myself to fight for the right to freeride on the fifth day of every workweek, which will from here on out be known as Freeride Friday. I vow to fight like the tenacious honey badger until we defeat the cobra of oppression. We must unite and act as one to achieve this lofty goal and preserve our liberty to freeride freedom.
This is Draggon, Ambassador of freeride affairs, and I approve this message.
Sir Draggon (yes, you are a knight as far as I am concerned)
I would like to formally apply for a Czar position in your administration. I feel I have a lot to offer the organization as a whole. I bring a plethora of knowledge in important subjects such as under water gymnastics, thumb wrestling, and the martial art of cheese wiz fighting. I would serve with honor and dignity, and will honestly manage all financial contributions from undisclosed sources via my new Super PAC that of course you would have no influence over what so ever. I look forward to meeting with you soon to discuss my role in your new and prestigious administration.
DO PEOPLE IN CANADA NEED AN EYE TEST, AS SEVERAL OF YOUR FELLOW COUNTRYMAN HAVE STATED THEY STRUGGLED TO SSE THE RIDERS EVEN AFTER 15 SECONDS, GET TO THE OPTICIANS, BEFORE YOU DO YOURSELVES A MISCHIEF ON THE TRAILS! NICE PIC BY THE WAY
God is fake, only a dumb asses would believe that, in the olden days people believed there was witches but that passed over, but people still believe in god why so they don't lose hope in life. true but sad
