Why DON'T you believe in God?

i see your point, however, i have faith that i chose the correct religion as i do not know of any other religion in which the spirit of god literally posseses you and speaks in hebrew from your mouth.
i came. redface

Again, almost all the other religions have faith on the same level.

Claiming that your version of god has possessed someone means nothing.

Because the same sort of thing happens in other religions.

its already a cult. i also dislike Catholics/chritians that are gay/bi. If its wrong:
1. why would you do it?(i have nothing against homosexuality, im just making a point.Hell, half my friends a gay/bi)
2. why would he make people gay/bi, or , if hes all powerfull like i hear he is, why doesnt he just make them straight?

~*~~*~
Actually, according to sociological definitions, it's no longer a cult.
It was a cult when it was started, only.
When the group was small and traditions were being newly developed.

And, they probably just convince themselves that part of the Bible isn't meant to be used nowadays.
Like the selling your daughters into slavery parts.
<.<

I just love those Brothels! (just kidding)
but, fundamentally, beliver population aside, it is the same as a cult.
also, what says that these cults that are sprouting up nowadays are wrong?

Pharaoh is already a God-King.

You should start a monotheistic reformation, like Akhenaten, except centered around yourself!

You know, I'm getting sick of ATHIESTS saying that if you can't see it, it doesn't exist.

Although, it helps, God is a belief, and most Gods you can't see. But still. Christians are like, "You have to see him in your heart!" Yeah, not possible. And saying that, you would think every Christian is all heart-felt and are the nicest people. WRONG.

uhhh, no. obviously, this is a discussion for intulectuals, not 12 year old girls that say "lol"

[Cashmina]

Well i just can't understand that there is one person who can control everything that happens.
How someone can allow YOUNG YOUNG children to be raped, who lets people get kidnapped and be tortured.

I don't know i just can't believe it.
Another reason is there is more scientific evidence to say that there are other reasons for the universe then they is about God.

[_radaa_]

im athiest....i am what i am because lots of horrible things have happened to me in the past, and god did nothing to help me cause hes a b***h......and plus theres hundreds of different religions out there, what makes yours right and other ones wrong?

Fundamentalist Christianity... wow, a little too much for me. Seems you've both encountered this particular breed of Christian sometime or another. Don't judge the rest of us as a result, lol, I can't understand the pamphlet-passers out there either rolleyes . The correct path is somewhat wide, but yes it's easy to fall off- this is recognized, and it's fairly easy to climb back on without being condemned for all time by both God and your peers, at least in your average, less extreme Christianity.

~*~~*~
It's hard not to meet them.
They're becoming more acceptable in our modern society.
Even our President is showing evidence of being a closeted extremist.
x______x

I have plenty of friends who are more casual Christians.
But even then, they'd "rather" I become more like them.
x__x
It's the nonChristians who will accept people for who they are without trying to change them, overall.

Until it explains where everything came from that made everything, then I dont buy it, and it isnt an explanation

And its not that I dont believe in God, its that its hard to trust someone watching me from the closet

So you refuse to accept the huge amounts of evidence based on the fact that we haven't got evidence to explain every step yet?

You may aswell ignore all physics and biology then.

Because scientific theories are the most important part of science.

So you choose to openly ignore the very thing that completes your entire evolution belief revolves around!?

Wow . . .

r u talking about yourself or an actual pharaoh?

Pharaoh is Pharaoh, and he also speaks in the third person, so Pharaoh is talking about himself.

I don't believe in God because for me it doesn't make sense to. Everything can be explained logically, or lse it is just a fluke. I just don't buy into the faith.
And what will happen when "judegment day" comes along? I'll tell you; that day of days will be the doing of man, with his lovely legions of weapons and his inability to think ahead and stop breeding. On that day, I'll either be long dead and not care, or I'll be burning right next to you. Don't you think that if God does exist, that he would want you to burn a little, so you know that you cleaned of sin and so you're not just up on a cloud sneering down at the people below you? The rapture ain't gonna happen if you think you're going to be the smug a*****e watching the rest of us suffer.

in a sense you are correct. however, it is benefitial to us. he will not allow us to see you burn in hell, as we will not remember you or any other one who is denied heaven. however, the ones in hell will forever look up at us in heaven, wondering how it feels, missing us, and wishing that they were ignorant of sin.

The problem with that argument is that there's millions of people who believe in different religions with the same amount of faith and conviction as you do.

So, without any clear evidence, you're not going to be able to sway them to your side.

Just as a Muslim is hardly going to persuade you that your version of the Judeo-Christian god is wrong and his is right.

So it would be impossible for anyone outside of religious circles to choose a religion. It's also largely possible that you've picked the wrong religion, considering all the hundreds of religions out there which have the same chance of being right as yours does.

This is why I prefer zoroastrianism. Everyone has to get burned, and everyone winds up in paradise. That's about a thousand times better than any "You suffer and you have a great time" bullcrap.

Because god hates pretty much everyone. And then LIES about it!

The bible also contradicts itself, and has no proof of anything.
