Zone1 Why is it so tough to believe in God?

"... was going on" was the correct answer? Yippee. I get a gold star. I want a certified, peer review of my new discovery. I'll write a paper called "Was Going On." It'll be the new rave. Thanks BreezeWood for a highly enlightening conversation. I'm grateful for you in-depth, one-line answers.
- is it just a guess, you are a christian ...

the empty rhetoric of a desert dweller - been going on for christians since the 4th century.
 
really ....



and the desert bibles, false commandments, hereditary idolatresses, heavenly personifications that never happened et al used to persecute and victimize the innocent escape the trappings of collective embellishments.
Yes really. Discover the difference.

Secular humanism is a nonreligious life philosophy that emphasizes reason, logic, and science to guide morality and decision-making, rejecting supernaturalism and religious dogma.

nothing to discover amongst the desert religions that hasn't been worn over countless times without a single result for centuries ... those religions have been dead since they were made up.

you might try the heavenly goal granted a&e after their choice and for all living beings the choice of self determination to acquire judgement and admission to the everlasting long before phony judaism made its debut. the triumph of good vs evil. the true religion of antiquity.
 
Because i said so.

This is the religion section, so that's good enough.

So, you admit you exercise faith. Your method of knowing is faith. But your faith is based upon 'you'. My faith is based upon the Bible.

Of course any can 'believe' whatever they like. I choose not to believe you.

This is probably a repeat, but one big reason is "reason" itself. Modern education is based on the scientific method, which demands that any hypotheses must be backed up by repeatable observations. And for mortal mankind, this is mostly a good thing, because we should make our decisions based on rational observations. [I won't get into the recent trends of pseudo science which are harmful to our advancement]

People who don't believe in God think that if they can't observe miracles, then it must mean God doesn't exist. I fell into that category when I was younger.

But now my eyes have been opened. For starters, one must ask "where do the laws of physics come from?" Then, "I think, therefore I am. Where does my consciousness come from?" Our ability to think and invent ways to manipulate the laws of physics to our benefit (or sometimes harm ourselves) is not explainable unless you admit the answer to my two questions is "God".

God has already performed miracles: creation of the physical universe we can observe, and creation of life capable of observing it. The true laws of the physical universe are constant and unchanging. We (mankind) represent independence, randomness. Our actions are outside of the physical laws. God does not need to perform miracles on demand like parlor tricks. And if and when He does, then they probably usually follow the laws of physics He laid down, so the observer of those miracles would normally dismiss them. They are subtle. Great miracles, like parting the Red Sea, or the coming of Jesus Christ, are also likely. In all of time, such miracles may be common, but in our individual lifetimes, appear to be rare.

In the words of a great philosopher, "God is everywhere, God is always." And I would like to offer an additional observation: God is through all of us.
 
Don't be so tough on yourself.

Many believe as you do.
Nobody believes life came from a rock. That's the stupid shit religious children say, because they know elsd than nothing about any scientific topic. Thanks to religious brainwashing.

Actually, you believe life evolved from nothing over billions of years.

Nope, not that either.

See what happens when you talk about topics you know less than nothing about?

See the abject ignorance that arises when you dedicate your life and mind to a single book of mythology?

Brain rot.
 
You say in horror others watch 'my terrible fate' at the hands of your god. I piss on your god. I shit on your god. he is no god
Thats right, others are watching in horror at your terrible fate especially after this gem of a post. But not me. I am very content to just see the power of my God in action enforcing his own Law as you slowly disintegrate into nothingness while flailing about in the fires of hell shrieking obscenities in agony about your hatred for my God.

Knowing that your time living under a strange delusion that you are destined for paradise by sinning is very short.

So try to get this through your addled defiled and contaminated pretentious hypocritical and sanctimonious head. I am nothing at all like your counterfeit ascetic pusillanimous mangod, the Antichrist, so its very satisfying to me.

There is no greater joy than seeing with my own eyes what I believe, what I know is the truth, confirmed by reality.

So have a good drown as you slowly go down all alone cackling like a lunatic at your own pathetic aberrations.

creation of the physical universe we can observe, and creation of life capable of observing it.

life on earth evolved over time, creation would imply in an instant ... nothing you wrote verifies the three desert religions are responsible for anything heavenly - including yours, christianity.
 

Why is it so tough to believe in God?​

It's actually too easy.

Well, sure for many its easy but its not easy at all, in fact impossible, for anyone who just doesn't have the faith it takes to "just believe" in the absurd to become an insecure oblivious pretentious guilt ridden numbskull for life.
