How come so many people ask about god?

How come so many people on here ask about god they need to stop its not right its not kul its not even funny its down right idiotic!!! and all the qs people do ask here are the anwsers!!!
Yes god loves everybody
He does exsits and even
If you did...

something sooo
Stupid he always will love you!!!

Not everybody has the same religion, and everybody has a right to believe in what they want to. Some people are confused about God, some people don't understand how it's possible he existed...let people ask what they want to, and don't judge anybody. You're here to help, not to call people idiots. Unless they are breaking the rules, you have no right to complain!

Everyone has differnt thoughts about it.
but I am getting tired of all the preaching on here.
nobody should be told what to believe. And nobody should be put down because of there beliefs.

here in the usa we have things I like to call
'freedoms'
speechreligion are on that list

suckitjesusimmyownreligionnow

No it's not.
I ask stupid questions all the time.
yesterday I asked if people thought I was ugly. hahaha
and btw, I don't even belive in god or anything else for that matter.
it's rude to force stuff upon people.

I think they're seeking an answer to the most important question in life: If I died today, where would I spend eternity ?

if people have questions about religion, why discourage them? Instead of making fun of them, try answering them. For those who think it's too preachy, ignore. I would rather have a question answered truthfully by someone, then just be mocked because people are afraid of sounding overly religious.

However, you do have the freedom to discourage questions, just like we have the freedom to discourage your question. There are a lot of hypocrites badgering you about your pessimistic views on the God questions, where you have just as much a right to hate them, as they do to hate your post.

Just like pickles15 said, no one should be put down for their beliefs... maybe not in the same context, but it applies.

Born to write...

So..

You can sum God up in 4... Very short lines...

Hmmm...

Wow.. now, that truly is amazing... indeed.

The God of the Universe...

Summed up...

IN 4 SHORT LINES...

Now... that is a tidy little bundle, if I ever saw one...

Thank you for your very intelligent contributions...

Pickles 15... Hi !!!

so you say:

Everyone has differnt thoughts about it.
but I am getting tired of all the preaching on here.
nobody should be told what to believe. And nobody should be put down because of there beliefs.

hey... I agree totally !!! With most of what you say, however, I do beg to differ on one thought.

That being...

all the preaching on here.

Excuse me... but, the last time I looked... this site was an advice site.

Remember... its called Funadvice...

It is also categorized as... religion spirituality...

Remember now???

What it is designed for, to begin with ???

To sum it up... a place for religious advice.

Or correct me, if I am wrong???

Am I misunderstanding this???

If so, someone please enlighten me...

born to write...

You say:

how come so many people on here ask about god they need to stop its not right

uh... please do tell... why this is not right???

The title of this forum is : FUNADVICE

The last time I checked...

That meant... a place for advice. Right???

Also... the spiritual/religious questions, are posted in:

THE RELIGION/SPIRITUALITY CATEGORY...

So... Please do tell... why this is not right???

I would be very interested to know.

pickles 15... You say:

And nobody should be put down because of there beliefs.

Hey... I agree totally... 100%

BUT... DOES THAT ACTUALLY TRANSLATE TO THIS:

Christians must shut up... for I do not want to hear what they have to say.
They do not have a right to their opinion.
Because that might cause me to wonder.
So, I say, they need to shut up now.
So that my conscience is not pricked.
So, that I do not have to wonder.
So, that I do not have to hear what they have to say.

IN OTHER WORDS...

This translates into...

My rights over their rights...

and I have the right... to not hear what they say...

even though they are posting approaitely to a forum, that is completely applicable to the topic that they are posting on.

uh.. excuse me... But, in my opinion... that translates... into:

Religious persecution.

It also, goes against the Constitution of the United States of America.

Of which I live, and am posting from.

Religious Freedom... remember?

From persecution...

EXACTLY WHAT THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED UPON...

over 200 years ago...

Now... do tell.. who is wrong?

thatonegirl14 Hi hon...

You say: it's rude to force stuff upon people.

Hey.. I agree totally...

Freedom to choose.

God gave it, I defend it.

However, how is stating an opinion...

Shoving it down ones throat, as the world is sooo fond of saying ?

Can't we have a discussion here?

Are you afraid of what Christians have to say?

Must you try and silence them?

Do you not have approaite answers... other than this?

silver wings, I admire your inquisitiveness, but am disgusted by your stupidity. Did you honestly think that you would not get mocked for posting religious questions? Although I am all for you standing up for Christianity, the passive aggressive stuff is not doing much good. Telling people that they are wrong and should try to emulate you is only trashing the Christian reputation even further.
You should have expected this, and I beg you to apologize.

Provide a rational, evidence-based reason for what you believe, and we atheists, agnostics and skeptics will stop asking, at least.

Everyone has the right to believe what they want to if they believe in god they believe in god and if they don't they don't but people don't need to be rude when someone asks a quetion about religion one shouldn't put a person down for their questions I thought thats what this is was for to ask questions and get answers for the question not to be chasticed for asking them

arachnid:

you are asking the impossible. I am a Christian myself and cannot give you textile evidence that what I am doing is true. However, if you were to ask me whether I would bet my life and everyone I knows lives my beliefs, I could say with extreme confidence that I would.

This is why people are so hesitant of religion. They want physical proof of its existence. All I can provide is the fact that historical records prove that Jesus existed, and other proof that confirm the references in the bible to be historically accurate. But I cannot show you that Jesus is the Christ, unless you trust the bible to be a legitimate source of reference... which I doubt.

I do have a question for you though. How can you look at the mountains of alaska, or the sunset over the Pacific, and not think that there is something larger than us who created it all? You don;t have to answer, but it would be nice to know someones counter-argument.

slapintheface87 ... Hi!!!

Thanks for the compliment... I have always been a why person...

Lets see now...

You call the answers : mocking.

Thanks for calling our attention to this.

I appreciate your input, greatly.

It all makes for a very lively conversation... One of which, I enjoy very much

I do so thank the ones that created this site, and made this possible.

Lets see... now...

Where did I tell anyone that they are wrong???

or where is it that I said, You need to emulate, me???

My word... young man.. or girl... not sure which you are , (forgive me)... for my ignorance.

Where do you see that I said that???

And lets see... now...

trashing the Christian reputation,

how did I do that???

even further...

What happened to it to begin with ???

Is this a play on words??? Or what is going on here???

Did I fail to learn the English language during my tenure in the school system?

Are you speaking a different language than me, or what??

Please help me to understand.

I know that I can be dense at times, but, gee whiz...

Enlighten me...

slapintheface87: That's more or less my point. Why would I believe in something that has absolutely no evidence to support its validity? I really would like to see the independent historical references to Jesus and biblical events you mention, though.

I do have a question for you though. How can you look at the mountains of alaska, or the sunset over the Pacific, and not think that there is something larger than us who created it all? You don;t have to answer, but it would be nice to know someones counter-argument.

Natural processes are completely sufficient to explain all of this, beautiful as it is. In fact, I find it all the more beautiful knowing that they're the incredibly complex outcome of some very (conceptually) simple rules acting together. Emergent complexity is amazing. I certainly don't see any need to invoke a supernatural agency.

actually yeah this isn't right. your saying how nobody should ask questions about god and you go and write something like this. the bad thing is is that not everyone believes in god, so of course you are going to get a clash in views over here.

zimmyzimmyzoomzoom...

ah... lets see now...

Who said... that no one should ask questions... about God???

Wowo.. how would we ever find out anything... about God, if we didn't ask questions?

arachnid...

(conceptually) simple rules acting together. Emergent complexity

wow ... big words ...

Must be college words... hmmm...

haven't run into those before...

Lets break it down, so we can all be on the same page...

Conceptually... well, I'm going to let you do that one.

I want to condider the simple rules... part.

Lets see now... what simple rule...

Makes the sun come up in the morning over Alaska ?

And set in the evening... over the Pacific?

What simple rule... causes this magnificance to happen, day after day?

Then... maybe you can explain emergent complexity to me???

I am sure that others too would like to know.

Thanks.

silverwings: Gravity (thanks to general relativity), the equations that describe the weak and strong forces, etc, describe most of it (at a high level). At the cosmological level, it's all down to physics. At the local level, it's down to biology. The rules may seem complex, but compared to the things they cause to exist, they're extremely simple.

Emergent complexity is exactly that process: Simple systems creating complex outcomes. A trivial example is fractals: The equation that describes it is simple, but the fractals are infinitely detailed.
