So what I dont believe in God?

[hangover]

You believe in God or don't its your personal choice. God is a belief not a phenomenon.

Science says that people that believe in a god have the "God gene", atheists don't have the gene. Kinda like the Homosexual gene.

What science? Who did that "research"... anyway, a relationship with God is a spiritual thing, not a biological thing and not a mental thing. It's impossible to quantify a "spiritual" thing, and you have to accept the gift to even be able to discuss it much less understand it.

This proves you don't have a clue, let alone understand it.

Obviously you didn't even bother to click on it and read the link, which proves you have no desire to learn the truth. It's just easier for you to follow your church dogma, like a sheeple.

alright I clicked on it and read it - even if this is true or correct, it may just point to how some people believe in any kind of God. My belief is there is one God, one Way, and that has been revealed by God (not a gene).

Here is an excerpt from Wikipedia:

Although it is always difficult to determine the many interacting functions of a gene, VMAT2 appears to be involved in the transport of monoamine neurotransmitters across the synapses of the brain. PZ Myers argues: "It's a pump. A teeny-tiny pump responsible for packaging a neurotransmitter for export during brain activity. Yes, it's important, and it may even be active and necessary during higher order processing, like religious thought. But one thing it isn't is a 'god gene.'"[2]
Carl Zimmer claimed that VMAT2 can be characterized as a gene that accounts for less than one percent of the variance of self-transcendence scores. These, Zimmer says, can signify anything from belonging to the Green Party to believing in ESP. Zimmer also points out that the God Gene theory is based on only one unpublished, unreplicated study.[3] However Hamer notes that the importance of the VMAT2 finding is not that it explains all spiritual or religious feelings, but rather that it points the way toward one neurobiological pathway that may be important

FYI, the Catholics say their way is the one way. The Baptists say their way is the one way. The Muslims say their way is the one way. And the Jews say their way is the one way. And they all say it's THEIR god that revealed it.
The bible that you base your "beliefs" on was put together by priests of Constantine at Nicaea, with the intention of giving the church ultimate power over the masses. It had nothing to do with god. They left out more scripture than was put in the bible. The Catholic church ruled the world for 1,500 years, killing everyone the didn't capitulate to the church. Hundreds of thousands were burned at the stake and beheaded for not being a follower of the church. Do you really believe THAT is what God is all about?

Relationships with the various gawds are, with virtual exclusivity, a matter of cultural conditioning. A simple review of demographics will make that readily apparent. Religion is a function of geographic location. Your claimed relationship with the gawds is no more a considered choice than an arranged marriage.

I can't remember the two nations but in the cosmos they explained how Babylonia I believe it was believed there god was the 1 true god and the Greeks believed their God was the one true God.warred over who was right. perhaps neither of them were?

who even knows if that gene was always there or if it has been pounded into us over the last 10,000 years that's evolution

 

[sealybobo]

actually the god gene could not have been always in us because at 1 time we were fish and then rodents or small mammals and then apes we certainly werent religious then we may have been curious and afraid and wondered but we werent smart enough yet to possibly imagine the god theory

 

[BreezeWood]

Unfortunately, there are so many "false Christians" out there that give "real" Christians a bad name....

"False" Christians to more damage to Christianity than any atheist or agnostic could ever do... Satan loves it.

what about false atheists?......you know, the irrational rationalists.......

.

Satan loves it.

nothing could be more rationally irrational ... except maybe Posty.

Not "love" in the truest sense LOL - how about Satan gets immense satisfaction from it?

So what I dont believe in God?

believers in the Almighty know the distinction why there is no Satan ... atheist have no feelings for the same reasons as christian's for the same subject that a "loveless" Satan became, and then - was no more.

Satan is Dead.

There is no "one correct religious denomination". Those are just "groups". I am a Christian that goes to a Baptist church because I feel they most closely follow my beliefs and what I feel has been revealed to me by the scriptures and the Holy Spirit.

God is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent. God is 3 persons, father, son and Holy Spirit.
The Bible is to be read, studied, and read prayerfully for enlightenment.
God came down in the form of man, Jesus, as a perfect sacrifice for our sins. It is clear in the Bible we must acknowledge and accept that free gift, repent and follow God to be a Christian.

Who ever believes and accepts (lives) that, in my belief, is a Christian.

The Baptists believe like you do...That anyone who doesn't "believe" the way they do, is going to hell. The Catholics "believe" that they are the only ones going to heaven. The Muslims "believe" that they are the only ones going to heaven. The Jews "believe" they are the chosen race, like god is a bigot. Here's a clue....
Jesus said, "Judge not, and be not judged. Judge and receive the same judgement." Matthew 7:1-2
He also said, "There will be many on the last day that come to me and say, didn't I cast out demons in your name, and didn't I prophecy in your name?" And Jesus will answer them, "I know you not you are workers of iniquity." Matthew 7:21-22
Any one that condemns anybody to hell, condemns themselves.

Satan is not dead, he rules the earth. When Satan destroys himself there will be no more evil. Satan's function is to destroy, that's the negative. God creates, that's the positive. Positive and negative are not interchangeable. God doesn't do evil, and Satan doesn't do good.

What is biblical is subject to interpretation. That's why Christianity has splintered into so many different sects/subdivisions, many of those sects being hostile to one another. If there was consensus as to what was "biblical", there wouldn't be such divisions.
