[QUOTE="jalexbrown"][QUOTE="tigertechie"]Mate, I believe in God. How can you not. He lovingly created this world perfectly before humans wrecked it.wickedwaffle

Do you ever stop to ponder why God would allow us to destroy his perfectly created world? Or why an all-knowing God would instruct Adam to not eat from the Tree of Wisdom, already knowing that he would eat from it? Or what ever happened to the REAL miracles, like Moses parting the seas to escape Egypt during the Exodus?

huh keep frepeating my self he he gave everybody free will. I guess god hopes everybody will eventually change.

But why? What good has free will served us in the eyes of God? And besides, if God is really all-knowing then how can we have free will to begin with?

[QUOTE="Meinhard1"]Since TC is a Christian seeing the world as a work of God comes natural, it's easy to see Him in trees, birds, the wind - everything. So from his pov it is understandable that he would ask such a question. But atheists and agnostics - I'm curious how many people who don't believe in God feel like they "chose" not to believe? I'm pretty sure most atheists and agnostics couldn't believe if they wanted to unless they were presented with a good reason, for TC nature is reason enough but this doesn't work many of us.stepnkev

I can see what you're saying. I used to be Agnostic and have been given many reasons to believe since then. I have been a Christian now for 20 years. I chose to believe in God due to the many different experiences I have had in my life, which for me, is proof that God exists. However, this isn't something I can pull out of my back pocket and prove to anyone else.

Cool, I'm the mirror of you 20 years Christian now I'm an agnostic. A lot of Christianity is based on this awesome feeling of closeness to God - and so what TC describes is something I can fully understand. This is why religious debate can go on for ever - people like you (usually) can't take the feelings of your heart and make someone else experience them and atheists (usually) can't thwart that with scientific reasoning.

Everything is just in perfect balance.The birds singing the wind trees the flowers the world is beautiful..This all cant just happen by chance..I mean really come on just because you dont see it doesnt mean its not there.Everybody has a mind a brain a soul a voice that tells them right or wrong god gave everybody free will.And besides ive rather believe in something than not beieving in anything at all.Some atheists act like christians fear death and worry about it..We dont fear it we welcome it when our time comes to be with our family.And you guys think christians follow the rules without disobeying we dont god forgives us.I just dont get how you guys dont believe in God

wickedwaffle
Why does the perfection of nature require a supernatural being to create it? It just happened. I don't think that's any less realistic than talking snakes, burning bushes, and rivers of blood.

Science has yet to answer the ultimate question of how the universe was created, but all signs would seem to point to natural processes, given that that is how everything else (stars, planets, etc.) was created. That doesn't mean it was all "by chance", but it does mean that it was not due to intelligent intervention.

[QUOTE="Solid-CELL"]Can god actually believe that his creation, humans, can all follow one faith and be at peace? If that's what he expected, then thats a rather rubish way of running the universe..wickedwaffle

get ur facts straight he gave each human free will

Your mentioning facts within the realm of religion? Yea..ok. God want's us to follow the 10 commandments and if we break just one we burn in agonizing hell. But he can just easily forgive us just by asking for forgiveness? So Hitler and Stalin must have died and went to heaven...

Their is no real physical proof to make me believe. I would need some kind of obvious sign to become a believer. Until that happens I will abstain from religion.

I know what you mean. I don't claim to know better than Athiests or agnostics, but I do not understand how one could think everything that occurs in our world to be merely chance. Love, at least for me, validates the existence of a god in my mind.

battlefront23
I disagree with the love thing. As the bible puts it: God's love is amazingly unconditional, which is heavily argued. Human love is anything but, its based on a number of conditions and can end just as quickly as it begins. Its just a series of chemicals in the body that make humans feel a certain way (love) towards something else. Now bud, I believe in God, but I do not think love is an example he exist. I just believe he does, I can not explain it, but something is there that makes me believe.

Failed argument. The world is ugly for some people, or in some other alien's standard. And why does everyone has to believe in God? Some people believe, some people don't. Such simple concept and yet, so few people can understand it.magicalclick
I'm a Christian, but I wholeheartedly agree. If everyone "believed", than less people would believe than people do now. It's a simple matter of faith on both sides...

Who looks forward to death? So you really think dogs,cats,bugs,birds,monkeys ect. get's judge and go to heaven or hell?!? I really don't think its GOD-like to tell someone how to live there only life and worship someone you never seen or met....if anyone.

My bad I didn't clarify. I'm talking about the very idea of love and the fact of what God has done with Jesus. You're right in saying that human love is not really love usually...

Really? God's love is unconditional? Because it seems to me like putting someone in the agonizing fire of hell for eternity is a pretty cruel thing to do to people that you love. I mean, I could understand this argument if you were Jewish and didn't believe in eternal hell, but it doesn't work so well with Christians.

And faith is a cop-out, by asserting that you must rely on faith, you are admitting that it can no be taken on it's own merits.

No, It's not. Not everything in this world can have "Empirical Evidence", scientists still aren't fully capable of understanding how the Human Brain functions. Do you still believe it functions on the scale they say, even if they haven't proven it yet?

I have no grudge against the idea of faith, because an absolute belief in ANYTHING requires faith. That said, I'm one of the true people who lack faith in just about everything, and I'm therefore skeptical about claims religious, scientific, or otherwise.

wickedwaffle

It's not necessarily "chance". Ask any evolutionist, and they do not call evolution "chance" or happening "by accident". Species evolve to adapt to their environment. As many evolutionists have pointed out, it is not an accident that we evolved legs. Legs have evolved on many different seperate occasions on different branches of the evolutionary tree. It was inevitable that some kind of life would arise on Earth, and that that life would evolve into some sort of complex beings. So, yes it is chance that we individually are here, but it is not just an accident that life in general, or that even complex or intelligent life in general, exists on Earth. If it weren't us, other creatures would have evolved into complex life, and likely into something intelligent like us. So, it's not necessarily an accident. I believe that this kind of thing has probably happened all over the universe. There are probably many different kinds of life off of our own planet, some of which is likely intelligent. So does that answer your question??

No, this just totally fails. If someone doesn't believe in God, then they're not going to blame the bad things that happen to them on God. If you do believe in God, then you have to accept that all the bad things in the world are the result of God.

Satan tricked them (you say), yes, but God is all-knowing...which means God would have known that Satan was going to trick them, correct?

I know what you mean. I don't claim to know better than Athiests or agnostics, but I do not understand how one could think everything that occurs in our world to be merely chance. Love, at least for me, validates the existence of a god in my mind.

I disagree with the love thing. As the bible puts it: God's love is amazingly unconditional, which is heavily argued. Human love is anything but, its based on a number of conditions and can end just as quickly as it begins. Its just a series of chemicals in the body that make humans feel a certain way (love) towards something else. Now bud, I believe in God, but I do not think love is an example he exist. I just believe he does, I can not explain it, but something is there that makes me believe.

Really? God's love is unconditional? Because it seems to me like putting someone in the agonizing fire of hell for eternity is a pretty cruel thing to do to people that you love. I mean, I could understand this argument if you were Jewish and didn't believe in eternal hell, but it doesn't work so well with Christians.

I am Christian, and I think the idea of an eternal burning hell is complete BS, and is due to something being added and/or severely taken out of context. I don't want to go into it, but that's what is it. And if you read my posts correctly, I said "As the bible puts it...which is heavily argued" One argument against God's unconditional love is that he once said he hated someone. Now, I am not given you the complete picture, and I probably should, but if unconditional love exist there should not be hate. I do not think God can be accurately defined by anything. Do I think he is loving? Hell Yeah. Do I think his love is unconditional? I don't know how God views love, God may have a different view of love than what I believe. So, I have no real way to answer this question. If forced to chose I would say, "Yes, but because of reasons I won't go into because I do not want the crap storm.

How does one yell when they write?

Words in all caps = yelling.

Yelling is something outloud.

A perfect balance? Please watch the news. This world is full of chaos and anarchy caused solely by men.

Typing in all caps on the Internet is the equivalent of yelling at someone.

Shouting/yelling on the internet is expressed by using all capitals. That's just how things are, and have always been.
