I used to be a Christian and life seemed to be better when you have some sort of "god" incorporated into your life. However, honestly it's extremely hard to believe in a figure that is supposed to be the maker of everything.

Well, I propose to you that becoming religious just because it "seems better" will come across as a falsehood to both believers and "God" if he were to exist. You don't need a supernatural being to enjoy life my friend - life is perfectly wonderful as it is :).

[QUOTE="Crunchy_Nuts"]

Not religious at all. I was born into a Muslim family and tried to be a good Muslim even though I was very sceptical of it even as a kid. Eventually I thought F' it, God doesn't exist. People only believe it because some tyrant 14 centuries ago had a book written about it. After that I immediately converted to unicornism because it seemed more likely than the the fairy tails in the other old books.


Crunchy_Nuts

SO u believe that the whole universe is working on its own and nothing is controlling it ???do u really think that universe created itself???

i truely feel sorry for you

Why, because I believe that unicorns are more likely to exist than a supreme being that transcends us all?

so u think that the universe made itself and it running on its own???and a *tyrant* lol i think u never touched any history book ,i can see now why u left the religion of ISLAM u r a damn fool boy

I think the same of nothing being the cause of everything. Or the universe always existing or w/e. But it's funny because while I'm technically 'religious', I really dislike religion and what it does to people.

The difficulty people have with ideas of the universe always existing is quite interesting - physically, time is just another dimension, so there is no real reason why a universe infinite in time would be any more inconcievable than a universe infinite in space; yet for some reason, it's universally found to be a much less believable concept.

Funny how all the damn fools seem to systematically score higher on IQ tests, and to be more educated and have far more enlightened views towards woman, Jews, gays, and atheists. Odd, that.

Ok, lets say that the universe was in fact created by a divine being. You say that this must be true, becasue something cannot just "appear" without being consiously created. However, if this is true, what created the said divine being? According to your logic, this divine being cannot exist becasue there was nothing before it that would have created it. Explain this hypocrisy.

I don't believe in a God.

Maybe that'll change. Maybe it won't.
