[HUGGY]

ooooooo i wanna get in on this.

I'm with you gay jesus, god should hold a press conference on the white house lawn. Of course, to all believers, they will come up with something of why he won't.

Seriously, why in the fuck are people not capable of thinking about this. I mean, you don't have to spend years studying the bible to figure this out.

Please tell me, if god made man in his image, why did he make me such a logical thinker? Because logically, god does not exist.

People believe in tons of gods around the world, and they've changed throughout history. In the past, people were convinced there were witches, so these witches were executed. Hitler convinced an entire country that they needed to kill 6 million Jews. 2000 years ago, some guy said he was the son of god, and some other guys wrote a book about it, then some other guys changed it around.

Really though, those believers out there, who are thinking right now "wow, this guy is going to burn in hell for an eternity", thats just great. I could say "i believe that since you believe in god, you and your entire family are going to be raped and murdered, and your dog is going to get hit by a car", and it would be nothing compared to believing I'm going to spend an eternity in hell. I guess god just made me in his image to live a life on earth, not believe in him, then burn in hell for eternity. I mean, why not just bleep me out of existance? Theres no point in me being around! "God" says if you don't believe in him, you go to hell, but how is one supposed to believe in god out of fear of going to a place that they don't believe exists???

On the other side, it is hard for people to cope with thinking about when they die, that is the end, so religion comes in to play. I really think everyone should get together, and make up another god(it's been done so many times already that it should be easy) that is up to date with the scientifically proven evidence that completely contradicts the bible, so that everyone can move on with progression in society.

On another note, don't make your kids go to church growing up. It is not fair to brainwash them. If religion really does make sense, then they will figure it out when they are old enough to understand what they are dealing with (instead of believing it to avoid going to hell).

I wonder when all of the "scientist", that people like you worship as Gods, will figure out how or why humans have advanced so much more than any other living thing on this planet. If a chimpanzee learns a few words in sign language, it makes the cover of every scientific journal around the world. Humans create and appreciate all types of art from music to the written word, they create tools that allow them to build skyscrapers that are 1,300 feet high with air conditioned space filled with other humans doing a variety of things only humans can do. Humans have stepped on the moon and sent spacecraft throughout the galaxy collecting data and photographs of places we could never see. They have cured disease and even figured out how to clone other animals, what has the chimpanzee done besides shit in their hands and throw at humans?

Really, about the only things we have in common with the rest of the animal world is that we eat, shit, breath and reproduce, animals are incredibly inferior in every other way except strength and humans pound for pound can achieve comparable strength. Where is the explanation for why we, humans, are so very different and special?

Why should the designer of everything that is so incredible about us and this world need to have a press conference for the likes of you, you who are too ignorant to understand how incredible of a being that even you are. You are easily too ignorant to know GOD when you see him.

An intelligent question...an ignorant answer. Don't pat yourself on the back so soon ...you still don't get it.

Believing in invisible all powerfull entities was, is and always will be the product of delusional thinking.

He works in a 7-11? Is his name Abu? I might know him.

Ok seriously, if I don't believe in god, why doesn't he/she/it just hold a press conference... for us folks who aren't instinctively delusional?

Viruses aren't invisible. They're what scientists call "very small."

And neither viruses nor electricity are all-powerful, so neither one fits into the category of things Huggy mentioned when he referred to invisible 'all-powerful' beings.

This raises some interesting thoughts after a few laugh out louds over the replies. Suppose you were Gawd, something like King for a day, or like the movies, what would you do with the world given its present state? Would you shake your head in wonder? Would you say enough? Would you become liberal and give all you have to the poor so they can be upper class too and shop in Bloomingdale's? Would you speed up global warming to get rid of a big mistake? What would you do?

The Colorado rat is an amoeba apparently... he splits into several different personalities to hold discussions with himself...

Point is, we knew they existed before we saw them.

That's true. But we don't have that level of proof with god, and probably never will have. So it comes down entirely to a question of faith. Arguments trying to prove or disprove the existence can be interesting but they aren't usually convincing to either side.

I'd start over, and this time create humanity with greater moral character so they don't commit as many evil acts.

 

[AllieBaba]

PPL lack character when they aren't exposed to hardship and choice. I think God is developing character and righteousness in us so we will be suitable companions for him in the hereafter.

 

[editec]

Um... because it isn't necessary?

Anyone that wants to know God has instant access available 24/7.

As someone once said to me, "Why would you pay to talk to a psychic, when you can talk to Jesus for free?"

Selah.

I'd give them one last warning before I shook the earth to likes they have never seen before. After that they'd be fully on their own while I enjoyed actual peace and harmony in that heavenly home where men/women of flesh cannot enter.

On what basis do you reach your conclusions? You admitted it was a good question. what's your answers to it?

That's an interesting answer but doesn't it return us to that old predestination stuff with a twist?

Okay, seriously, what makes you think you're entitled to have God prove anything to you? Who the fuck are YOU to demand a press conference or anything else? Maybe He thinks you should be working to gain HIS approval, rather than the other way around.

 

[Cecilie1200]

Sorry, but: no press conference = no invisible superbeings in another dimension threatening us with hell if we don't follow a book written by humans.

Brilliant "logic". "He doesn't do things the way I think He should, therefore He must not exist, because the only POSSIBLE way of doing things is mine." Hey, Barack Obama doesn't do things the way I think HE should. Does that mean HE doesn't exist either?

No press conference = you don't matter enough for Him to bother. Ever consider THAT possibility?

 

[Cecilie1200]

I never said there was a reward, When we die, something will happen, nobody really knows what, and that's cool too, something unknown but part of the circle of life will happen, maybe one day we'll figure it out, but we haven't so far, and there's nothing wrong with that. Doesn't mean there's a god though.
I'm an agnostic, so maybe there even is a god like you all say, but nobody's ever shown a shred of proof that convinces me, that's why I call for a press conference on the White House lawn to sort things out. Until then, no god.

Fine. There's no way to convince you there's a God. Now shut the fuck up.

Call me the voice from the "I'm really bad at loving my neighbors" wing of Christianity, but I don't think I'd WANT to convince Homo that there's a God, because I wouldn't want to take a chance on spending eternity with an asshole like that.

Yeah, yeah, so I need to pray about my attitude. I still like him right on the side of the argument he's on.

 

[Cecilie1200]

You missed the point completely. God says differently.

Which god? the jewish? the xitian- which one? the muslim? Thor, Krishna, Eostre (which christians also praise)... they all 'talk to their believers'

Apparently, they didn't teach basic English grammar in your school. When "God" is capitalized, it refers to the Judeo-Christian God, because they are the only ones who use "God" as a proper name, rather than simply a designation of type.
