Bren, I just have to know, and please don't be offended.  Why do you come on a science forum where most of the members do not believe in Heaven, Hell, God, Jesus or the Holy Ghost, and try to convince them otherwise?

That's an incredibly sweeping statement. I think you are only qualified to speak for yourself on that matter. Most of the Scientists I know are professed Christians.

Even if most here did not have any faith, AlphBravo asked about Jesus' belief.

But I post because some others have faith and I might help some, and I hope that non believers come to believe.

Do any photographs exist of this common occurrence?

To be fair Carolyn did say "on a science forum where most of the members..."

You may know Scientists that claim to be professed Christians but that does not mean that they are believers that practice their Christianity as many simply do not. The ones that don't practice their belief are just "token Christians." How many write down that they belong to the Church when asked and yet do not attend Church or worship on a regular basis?

Being a "token Christian" is a trait that's common in politics as well, plus it looks better than putting "atheist" on the CV!

Being a Christian is not just about saying you are one!

Perhaps the new "Ghostbusters" movie may have some black ghosts.

You're right SC, I cannot speak for anyone other than myself and obviously I don't know the religious beliefs of all of the TNS members.  However, the majority of the members that I have personally interacted with do not believe in God and most of the scientists I know outside of this forum, which are not a lot, are also not believers.

After I posted and then reread my question, I intended to delete it because I didn't mean for it to sound so harsh and I also wasn't happy with the way I worded it because it implied that I am an atheist.  I am not.  I am a Christian and have been since I was a young child.  Unfortunately, I was distracted by a phone call and forgot all about deleting it until you responded.

Both you and Titanscape have my apologies for any offense I have caused.
