Any atheists here?

[angel_luv]

This is exactly what I'm talking about. What is wrong with you? I don't believe in god, but in a hypothetical sense....why do you put human boundaries on god? God is just? That's garbage. He's god...like I said before...he isn't dragged down by the boundaries of human emotions and thoughts.

If he made humans, it stands to reason that his thinking is far more advanced than ours. All you do is put your limitations on thinking and emotions to him when it's quite obvious he's far beyond them.

I am just telling you what the Bible says. You know this.

[usckk]

There is just so many different religions, all created by man i'm sure. They can't all be right.

all i can say is John Hagee is a fat deuche bag that disgraces christianity

Well then that proves it...the Bible is garbage.

Somebody is wrong guys. If athiests are right, then anyone who believes in God is wrong and vice versa.
There is an absolute truth.

[MaNuMaNiAc]

In order for something to be truth, everything that says otherwise does have to be false.

But understand that I have no desire to be right for the sake of it.

Think from my perspective. I am a Christian. Think about my views of life and death and judgement.
Believing as I do, what kind of friend would I be if I didn't try to show you how great God is and how dangerous life and death without Him is.

I understand angel, I really do. In fact I applaud that way of thinking. You strive to protect your fellow man and woman from what you believe is a certain truth. Nothing wrong with that. I have nothing against preeching religion, I do however, have everything against enforcing it, which clearly is not what you seek to do. I wish I could believe like that. I'm just not built that way.

[angel_luv]

I am not trying to bully anyone. The choice is yours. But the reality is that you are making a choice about the existence of God, even if that decision is to ignore the subject.

Maybe we're both wrong.

Is there? I don't know.

Thank you Manu Mania! =)

Ok explain that!

I really think religion is something we all invent to have a sense of hope. If none of the parents passed their religion to their offspring, I can guarantee there would be millions of different religions.

I'd much rather live my life believing in God only to die to find out that he doesn't exist - than live my life not believing in God only to die and find out that he does.

I don't mean this sarcastically. I am trying to clarify.

So you are saying there is no God -just a variety of imaginary friends people use as security blankets?

Assuming I bought that, wouldn't that make the athiests right?

[usckk]

I find the opposite worse. I mean...you all spend all your life believing in God (worshipping, praying, etc.), and then you find out his not real. Wouldn't you feel that you wasted half of your life.

[angel_luv]

That was the point of my original question.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

[HB22inSA]

Well, according to FoxSportsSW, God is a Spurs fan.

So what does that tell you?

Makes sense. However, that has been the whole theme for the churche's recruiting efforts since before the crusades. I find it too convenient. I much rather believe in god because I feel his presence than because I fear his wrath. I'm most certain true belief is not based on fear. I think perhaps you should ask yourselves if you "believe" in god just to cover all your bases, or wether you actually feel his existence

According to you, atheists are right and people who believe in a god are wrong.

=) That He is a good God!

Yes, that's why i'm a atheist, not a agnostic. Its like you believing in God, you think atheists are wrong.

Here is another question...why is cussing so bad? They are just words and most of them don't degrate anybody.

[angel_luv]

Thanks for explaining to me. =) I didn't mean to put you on the spot.

No prob.
