It would be nice if someone would come back from the dead and let us know what to expect!

I agree with you. Belief in god is just a crutch for the weak willed and weak minded. There is a reason that there are so many references to "pastors" and "flocks" it's because people are afraid to think for themselves. Like sheep. But it won't do any good to tell them. Studies have shown that when people are thinking about religion and politics the part of the brain that governs thought is not active.

I had a friend tell me that once and we got in a huge fight and haven't spoken in years. I believe in God and will always believe in Him. I'm not a church going Bible thumper but I have my own relationship with God.

We are only here for a short time, but death lasts forever. Who else will you call for aid, comfort, and salvation? The Creator knows when the sparrow falls to earth. He knows about you too. Open up your heart and recieve His love. All you need to do is ask!

to each his own. would you tell a 5 year old there is no santa? why?
Remove this stupid comment

yes i told my kids there's no santa at 5, but they already figured it out anyway. don't want them to believe a lie. We have no proof there is or isn't a God, but we have proof there's no Santa, so it's good to tell them.

Everyone on here should go rent the movie "What dreams may come" With robin williams, It might just open your minds all together...
Remove this stupid comment

I really didn't care for that movie. I paid like $6 to see it at the theater 10 years ago. My girlfriend had to see it after her 3 yr. old daughter died.

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that some cosmic Jewish Zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree. Makes perfect sense.

See Pascal's Wager: The existence or non-existence of God is not provable by human reason, since the essence of God is "infinitely incomprehensible". Since reason cannot decide the question, one must "wager", either by guessing or making a leap of faith. We only have two things to stake, our "reason" and our "happiness". Pascal considers that there is "equal risk of loss and gain", a coin toss, since human reason is powerless to address the question of God's existence. That being the case, we then must decide it according to our happiness... by weighing the gain and loss in believing that God exists. He contends the wise decision is to wager that God exists, since "If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing", meaning one can gain eternal life if God exists, but if not, one will be no worse off in death than if one had not believed. Understanding his conclusion is just the impetus for faith, not faith itself. You have to find that on your own. So what are you going to do?

The bible is based on paganism . .

Equating the concept of God with the Christan God. You can't know about God but logically you can know that the Christian God as described in the bible is not possible. As for Pascal's wager, you need to make that with every single version of God of other higher power there is, so in that case it's not God or no God it's which God or no God. Also if you plan on picking a savior than the best bet is probably not the one that just copies the story on one that came 200 years before. (Jesus myth rips of Crishna myth).

Don't look now, OP, but you also don't have the power to know. Like the comment above: for the creations to deny the creator, or fight about the details of the creator does not change reality. Whether we like it, believe it, deny it or accept it, God either exists or He does not. Those who are sure He does, like me, could be just as wrong. Besides, how in the world can we be sure of a negative, the absence of something unseen?

Bless your ass. Yes evolution, what does that have to do with earth decaying and having the power to change it? You christians make me sick , you think your so right, your weak if you need this make believe god to get through this hard life, yes ,life is hard. God my ass!
Remove this stupid comment

We are all expressions of this God thing that so many people believe exists separate from themselves. If you want to find God, look no further than yourself.

I can tell you this. If I didn't believe there was a God and had nothing to keep me moral then I would find your wives mothers and childern and use them as I saw fit. i would take what you have and skin you alive if it pleased me. You better thank someone. Think I'm joking?

Error on the side of caution. What if you are wrong? Do you have faith that tomorrow will come? How do you know if you have not seen it? Do you really think that all of this just made itself? You are the stupid ones.
Remove this stupid comment

People are always skeptical of what they cannot explain or understand... It matters not what you *think* is true; it matters only what *is* true. Unfortunately, you'll have to decide which way you believe before you're able to *know* because once you *know* for certain, it is too late to choose. Do not condemn your friend for making his/her own choice, as you've obviously made yours. Time will tell who is correct. :|

what is a myth his belief or yours???
Remove this stupid comment

You should tell your friend what you think. How are you so sure its a myth? Philosophically speaking, you can neither prove nor disprove Gods existence. You'd better be sure of what you believe, after death, forever is a LONG time........

I used to be such a faithful christian, I now shake my head in disbelief that I ever believed that shit. It's a nice theory, but why would a loving God let a baby roast in an oven, but help you find your lost keys. If you examine it, it falls apart. Your friend won't believe you anyway, brainwashed people don't like to admit it.

I totally agree. I can live my life without having an invisible friend.

the bible is a book that people wrote a long time ago, they knew how fukked up the times were, so they wrote all these passages/rules to live by. there is no god. only stories. the only gods that exist are light,air,water and earth. if not for them, where would we be?

Do you belive in HELL?
Remove this stupid comment

The bible is not 'a book' but 66 books written at different times over a period of 3-4 thousand years and yet somehow not only do they connect with each other but have survived 2000 years since the last one was written. Does common sense tell you these are books inspired by god or not?...take yer choice and god be with you.

its funny how ppl say there is no God, until they find themselves in a bad situation then they say "Oh My God." you shouldn't even say his name if you don't believe in his power. And bad things happen because there are bad ppl in the world. God gives all of us chance after chance. If something bad happens its not because he doesn't see or hear or feel sad about it. it called free will. The holy spirit is a very small voice (aka Jiminie Cricket) that whispers love to you. It is your choice to stop talkin and listen to him. But the only way you can know the desires of his heart is through his word. The people that say there is no God are the ppl that only want there own selfish desires. Follow God and he will give you the desires of your heart according to his will.
Remove this stupid comment

That is just your perspective. There is no way for you to disprove God anymore than he can prove God to you. It all comes down to your own personal level of faith or lack-there-of. God will reveal Himself to those who seek him, and hide Himself to those who don't.

It's possible to believe in a higher power that is NOT an "all powerful person" as portrayed by mainstream Christianity. But as for you "telling" your friend... he would dismiss your words. Save your breath and your friendship.

The buddy Christ! God is real, religion isn't. Learn to separate the two, God didn't create atheists or religion, man did. God..is..love. The perfection of creation is not accidental..

I had my doubts to, but when my Mother was suffering with cancer I became a believer. I ask God to please take her and he answered.I went into her room in the nursing home, kissed her on the forehead and told her it was time to join my dad and little sister in heaven.Just as I said the last two words she drew her last breath and that was it.

Telling children that hell exists is a form of terrorism.Wearing a murder weapon as a sign of a religion is just twisted

If you believe its a myth that's fine, you better hope you're right. Now whether he's right or wrong, who is his belief hurting? Why would you want to ruin that for him?

Religion is man-made...it gets in the way of faith. Why do you have to choose a religion to claim that you believe? It just doesn't make sense...if you want to believe, then believe.
