14. Wow.
<< It is my opinion that the planet is a living breathing entity. >>

But do you think that the PLANET known as "Earth" is self-aware? Does it have emotions? Feelings? A conscience? A soul?

<< Form follows thought. If you decide to create something first you have to think of it then work toward getting it accomplished. >>

Uh... okay?

<< Sacrifice virgins? Hell no, >>

I was only kidding about sacrificing virgins... it was a joke.

<< it's about honoring the life force in everything. If you measure energy, even rocks have a slow "pulse". >>

Rocks have a pulse? How is this pulse measured? Are you talking about on an ATOMIC level? The individual ATOMS that a rock is made from? Is this pulse evidence that the Earth thinks?

<< It is used in conjunction with the tectonic plates so that they can slide around. >>

Astounding! That one statement alone demonstrates a severe lack of knowledge about the earth's crust and plate tectonics. Go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plate_tectonics

<< Also, the earth and atmosphere have no way of removing all the pollutants we put out. >>

That is also incorrect. It does happen, it can clean itself... but it takes a very long time.

<< Weather happens. >>

That's the only thing you've said that I fully agree with.

So... why would a loving-caring deity allow such a thing to happen to so many innocent people? What was THEIR crime?
