Why do you think God or any god cares whether I believe in them or not?
Because certain believers are pretty adamant about pestering people who believe in different gods or no gods that their god is the only one that matters.
Quote:
God is there if and when you want to believe its your choice.
Can you demonstrate this?
Quote:
people convert from not believing to believing all the time vice versa
Which isn't a convincing argument, since people can change their minds for very bad reasons...
Quote:
God would love you all the same
Again, can you demonstrate this? Also, which god are we talking about? Cause if we're talking about the Abrahamic god....yeah, not so much. In fact, going off his book, he's kind of a psychotic d**k.
Quote:
Okay why do people think that gods responsible for everything they are ? It's called free will there are no strings attached.
Except, depending on what qualities you attribute to god, we may not have free will. In fact, can you even demonstrate that we have free will at all...
Quote:
If you want to be an atheist that's your choice. You think gods going to come down and put you over his leg and give you a swift spanking? It's god he's got better things to do.
I think you're kind of missing the point of the questions. OP is asking for evidence...because, should someone be able to prove that a god exists, it would be a pretty big deal. It would also, possibly, provide insight to how we should live to avoid being possibly tortured eternally....
Quote:
you intended for you to be an athiest that's a personal choice.
Not really...do you CHOOSE to believe 2+2=4? No. You are convinced by the evidence. Same thing here.
Quote:
Do ,I think anyone's going to send you to hell for it probably not .. Do I think your going to hell if your murder someone ..yes for sure. You want to go commit a crime that's your choice .
Can you demonstrate that hell even exists? And, while it's great that you don't believe that people are punished eternally for petty finite crimes, there are those that would disagree with you...so why should we take your views on hell more seriously than someone else's?
Quote:
Gods already hit the restart button flooded the world he promised never to do it again. Do I think he's responsible for Natural disasters no I think that is just nature doing its thing.
A global flood never happened...at least, that's what we can tell from the fossil record.
Quote:
You were made in his image
Again, demonstrate this. And while you're at it, specify which image we were made in, as the "image" of man has changed a lot during the evolutionary process.
Quote:
...Can an athiest say ' I am not a human ...and I was made in no ones image ' ...look around you ...everyone has two arms and two legs and a head unless malformations in the womb. Which is just the way it is don't ask me why people are born the way they are they just are
So, the reason why we all look pretty similar is because we evolved...animals of the same species tend to look pretty similar.
Another point you'll have to demonstrate.
Quote:
..becaues people could not fallow the tend commandments. We are wonderfully flawed people. He gave us two commandments
“‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."
Well, you're also ignoring the 76 laws that god put in the bible that you're also supposed to obey (such as don't eat shrimp, don't eat pork, don't have gay sex, don't help people find their lost property, don't cut your hair, don't shave, don't wear garments made of two different fabrics), not to mention all the other things god says he's cool with (such as all his commands regarding slavery...not a one of them being "don't ******** do it"...and his punishments for rape victims), and that's ignoring the parts where god tells people specifically to break commandments he made (like saying not to kill...and also telling people to wipe out entire groups of people), and, by the way, Jesus also says that these laws still apply, and will continue to apply until the end of time....but let's forget all of that for a second. Can you even demonstrate that your god exists so that we should obey this ******** up list?
Quote:
But that first ones up to you free will ..god can't make you do anything
Then he's not all-powerful...
Quote:
and second
‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
Pretty much means treat people like you would treat yourself
Unless god's really pissy and wants you kill all the men, women, boys, and livestock, and then take the virgins for yourself...
Quote:
Jesus died for our sins through him we are forgiven
Do you just not understand that preaching isn't evidence? You have to actually demonstrate your claims. And for someone who essentially acted like god doesn't care if someone's an atheist, you're making a lot of claims to the contrary, here...
Quote:
god new we were going to screw up
And if he were all-loving, wouldn't he do something to fix that? You know...something that would actually work...because none of the "fixes" he had in the bible actually fixed anything. If anything, he just made the system more convoluted.
Quote:
Well science tells us those who have a belief in a higher power live longer and recover faster. Then those who don't.
You can look this stuff up
Which doesn't do anything to validate the claim. In fact, if you looked further into the study, you'd see that just having a positive mind set helps you recover faster...regardless of theistic beliefs.
Quote:
Yeah I have friends who are atheist perfectly moral people. Their some of the best people I know
Its up to you free will your choice
Again, while it's cool that you aren't as pushy as the more fundamentalist christians, free will is a non-factor in this discussion. OP is asking for a reason to believe...not if it's okay that he doesn't believe.
Also, you may want to use the quote buttons. One, it gives a notice to the person you're responding to. And secondly, it makes your post easier to read, as no one has to decipher which parts are you talking and which parts are what you are responding to.
