This post is kinda dumb. Either you don't believe and already deny Jesus and don't go to church, or you believe and wouldn't deny him.
Almost every religious person struggles with doubtless belief and there is a crux of abandoning worldly pleasures to focus elsewhere.
LongoloidFartExplosion
It's funny how out of all the 3000 or so religions none provide physical proof. It's like they're all made up nonsense or something.
If we accepted it as nonsense that provides great lessons sometimes and bad lessons other times, it would be healthier
This post kinda hits that group's dilemma on the head. Your faith directly reduces worldly gain. Framed like that, do you still believe?

With believing comes knowing the things in this world wont last forever. Why does it matter where I live now, when eternity is a question?

But your dichotomy of complete faith and complete non-belief still is a falsehood.
Okay, it seems you think there is an emotional transformation when one has taken the mantle of complete faith.
That last question by far to me is the most valuable one that you could answer. It illustrates declarative insight into a religious mind.
I understand the emotional transformation of hope. What does faith offer beyond that?
You say you want to better man. Christianity is the source of all moral progress man has made in the west. Faith that there is an 1/

You cannot define "the source" as broadly as Christianity would have an effect. To say Christianity had undeniable influence is underserving

This was refreshing thank you.
ShamnusMcfee
What did he pay? I mean, don't you believe he resurrected and then ascended directly to heaven? So he didn't even really die, did he?

Fair enough. Being on the internet does make the world seem more reasonable, depending on where you go. It's slightly comforting.

NotSoSmartAlek
Satellite is crap. So is WiMax. Pay to run fiber, it'll be much better, and you can set up a lodge and run paintball/camping/LARPs/etc.
I've seen people build towers miles away from any town and they get 500 up. Though your idea is definitely better.
It's not the speed, it's the latency.
Fair. Though they typically aren't big gamers. But look at deadmau5, dude built a tower and he gets fantastic service. Not that we all have1
Lots of places are using point to point Ethernet radio for the last mile. Can be significantly cheaper then trenching fiber
Significantly higher chance of destructive interference too. :(
Depends on location... If there is really no one else around there shouldn't be any. Or used licenced spectrum radios.
