God??

ok well im confused at the moment about
god
I have many questions that just dont add upp to god.
so what I wanna know is why religous people are so
confident that everthing is made by god?
I was reading this articlce about some guy that said
god wasnt...

real. so another guy said yes he is he made you me and
this earth and ev erthing on it
but the truth is how can you be 100 percent sure on it?
there are many different beliefs and religions how can
one be rite?
and ii dont understand why god wont give me a sign hes real
if anything is there.
dont give me that bull crap about how if
you ask for it it wont come cause thats
bull so then god wants me to go to
hell because HE wont give me a sign??
I cant believe in somthing unless I know
its there.
if you tell me about santa or some crap
how am I sure its true?
its a myth.
somthing made to brainwash people
im confused epesially
since im from a very religous family
but how cqan I beliieve in somthing
that doesnt have proof???
dont say anything about faith
cause at one point I did
a lot but I felt nothing
exept a cool breeze coming from the air conditioner.
so tell me why I shooulld belive
other then cause youll go to helll
cause how do I know hell is real?

If you belive in hell then you should belive in heaven. If you belive in the devil you should belive in God. Im just sayin I have proof that god is real. He talked to me and I thought it was just a random guy but when he walked away he took just 3 steps then sarted rising to the sky then dissapered. bad things that happen are tests. to see your faith. and have you seen that there is no scientific proof of how people came to earth and be real??? you might want ti cheak it out.

right there with you. you can never really know what's going on up there, what's real, and what's not. It's confusing, I know, and my amily is so friggin religious! my sis is, this is gonna sond completely retarded, but she's a wiccan, like a witch. no judging please. it is a religion. anyways, there are so many religions, so many different faiths. you can never really tell. I'm agnostic, and I too believe that the whole 'god sends you messages' stuff is bull. to tell you the truth, I dont really get how god could send you a message. would he visit you in a dream? bull. would he send you a note? more bull. whatever you choose to believe, your family will either except it or they won't, but be whatever you want to be.

well im not at all trying to convert you or anything since there isnt much to convert to.. but im a atheist, I dont in any way believe there is a god. Sh*t happens thats just the way it is, I dont believe there is any real reason to being here like the others do, nor do I think there is an afterlife or any other bull
and even if their was ide like to see someone try to explain to me why their beliefs are so different and how one 'story' has so manny different sides to it.
what I believe is that its ment to let people have faith in something bigger than themselves so they dont have to worry and they can think that every little problem will be solved by some higher power or some sh*t like that.
I do however believe that there was jesus I just dont believe in him as a religious figure.
no one created us and no one else will protect us...
I apologize if I offended anyone

your asking what I asked about 2 years ago. I did a study, cause I wanted to know what was real. the question your asking is more important then you know. and I don't mean in the saving your soul way but in how your life is lead. did you know that there is proof that Christ lived? not the bible. there are other writings that show him to have lived. People of the Jewish faith will readily tell you he lived though they don't believe that he was the Savior. Same with those of the Muslim faith. There is no proof that he truly was the Christ. There is proof that he said he was, proof that he was crucified for that statement. there is proof that he did heal. though it is not recorded how. I'm saying all this because you and I both prefer to reason things out. I'm trying my best to be unbiased and give you fair info. though I will say that I am a Christian fully now. Now I know that you think like I do. that me telling you that there is proof won't do. So my advice is too research. Think about it. if you haven't read the bible, you may try that. not from a religious stand point but an intellectual one. No one can just tell you how to believe. But finding out is a very good thing. if you want help I will be glad to give it. (REALLY hoping this isn't against the rules, cause I like it here) you can contact me at Fun mail me

I could to tell you so many different things but it still won't change anything because of your way of thinking..obvisouly we got here somehow and have gradually changed through time..there are many religions and many more to come but they all agree on one thing that there is a higher power whom we call god..now if you don't want to hear any bull..then just know whats right from wrong..and be a good person who makes right decisions in life..you don't have to believe anything you don't want or try to follow any religion your not comfortable with..just do you ..it won't make you any less of a person

welll... how else do you think everything was made??? hmmm???

I dont care what you say but in the bible it says you dont have to see somthing to know it is there. Exp. you cant see wind but you know it is there because you can feel it. God is probly giving you a sign that he is real but your just not accepting it.

I like what theta010 said

listen to this guy

only YOU can find out the TRUTH about life.

do what you MUST to find out the truth.

research it, dedicate your time to it.

once you know for a fact, then you will know the truth you were searching for.

your asking these questions because you want to know. dont stop searching til you know.

dont just listen to people here on fun advice, dont just listen to your firend, or your family, or you pastor.

this is a personal issue that only you can solve. just dont quit til you know for a fact.

but asking these questions is the first step

There is no reason at all to think that there might be any gods. Modern god ideas are simply myths.

***did you know that there is proof that Christ lived?***

No there isn't.

***there are other writings that show him to have lived. People of the Jewish faith will readily tell you he lived though they don't believe that he was the Savior. Same with those of the Muslim faith.***

That isn't proof.

***There is no proof that he truly was the Christ.***

Correct.

***There is proof that he said he was,***

WRONG.

***proof that he was crucified for that statement.***

WRONG.

***there is proof that he did heal.***

WRONG AGAIN.

Learn the difference between 'PROOF' and 'EVIDENCE' before you spout such nonsense.

***once you know for a fact, then you will know the truth you were searching for.***
***your asking these questions because you want to know. dont stop searching til you know.***
***this is a personal issue that only you can solve. just dont quit til you know for a fact.***

You're asking the impossible. Your statements defy God and the very concept of faith.

I 4got the name of the movie that brought me to belief.

Man...my parents are like the...lol...I don't know ...

None of them are religious...I mean my dad's so down with anything aye...tell him he be close to God when smoking weed and he be right on it in no time...lol...I'm sorry it's not funny *cough**cough*

In my family...Nobody goes to church nobody likes to be preached to.You think YOU guys give me a hard time attacking every christian based post you haven't met my parents yet.

I think so many people here are brought up with a choice to know Jesus.I mean if you lived in a non-christian populated country like I do.And risk your life getting bombed by fundamental terrorist at churches(It has happened) to various churches here.Yes even when I was in one. Somebody prayed and had a vision that someone had explosives in the bag and right away they dealt with him. That's a miracle.But of course people will call that impossible or retarded or what not.But I don't care.What matters is I saw miracles and I wont lie that I didn't.Just like Marco Polo on his death bed wouldn't deny seeing all those great sea monsters and creatures just because people at that time hadn't yet seen them.Neither will I deny miracles that have happened in my life.I don't really have that luxury for doubting God.

I think if you really want to know.Make yourself a student of the truth.

You want the truth.

Go find it.

I suggest you spend half a year maybe a year before you make your decision.God is too important to be ignorant about.Him existing to you or not is going to make a huge difference in your life.So it's wise to spend some time on it.

Thing's you'll need:

1.Bible

2.Notebook pen.(Writing in hand makes it easier to remember)

3.Other references:They will either support or contradict your main Problem:
Does God exist?
1)Library
2)Internet
3)Museums
4)Testimonies from Devout Christians
5)Testimonies from Atheists
6)Other religions and beliefs
7)Scientists...yes like people..group of scientists ask them how science affects their faith.
etc...

So read the bible starting from Genesis-Revelation ...write down every question you have and I mean EVERYTHING no matter how unimportant it seems...and go look for answers...look for it high and low...and all over the world.

Before you do all that ...do yourself a favour...since you haven't yet proven GOd DOES NOT EXIST...ask Him to help you find the truth...

And whatever it is for you...it will set you free...

(:-) GOOD LUCK!

Interesting that god being man-made is more plausible than him existing.

The concept of god's developed to explain the origin of humanity and the world, to act as a governing system, to give life meaning, and to subside fear of death

Take santa clause for example- no magic guy required to explain presents on xmas morning

--welll... how else do you think everything was made??? hmmm???--

History has shown that myths, gods, and superstition have been used to explain things people didn't understand and were ignorant about.

For example, before people knew microorganisms caused plagues- God caused them.

What you're doing is repeating that trend.

We already have scientific explanations for our origins, that're attributed to god.

Star and Planet formation - In general, we know how this occurs by inferring from the evidence
we have observed stars in the process of forming, and matter and debris revolving around stars.
Abiogenesis - The earliest life would have derived from self-replicating molecules that developed in earth's young conditions.
Evolution - Who was it that said, ''Nothing in biology makes sense except in the light of Evolution.''
The fossil record and the evidence show that life, including humans, has evolved.

I'd say a lot more plausible than a make-believe being creating everything.

religion is hope and crap they make up to keep you interested there is a equesaion meaning. energy divided by light speed = matter if that is true then there is no god
