If there was no God,no creator just nobody at all....

Then why would there be so many religions and so much talk about God throughout the history of mankind?

Why would anyone make up false stories of God and all?And even if some did,why would they continue throughout time?

If God never ever communicated to man through His prophets then surely this much talk about God and religion just simply wont be there.

Ouch, put on your flame shield, those atheists will fight until 3 am in the morning to prove that they have no soul

I really wish they would just make some rule about these threads, i am sick of proving God's existence

Because people have wild imaginations. It's like mythical creatures. There's tons of folk tales saying they exist or existed yet we don't have proof. Same with religions. We don't know if it exists or not.

If there is existence, people will wonder why. The most obvious explanation is "well, someone created everything", especially in the days when people really didn't know a whole lot about anything. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the correct answer.

Here's a question: do you think that Zeus and Hera and the like were God communicating through his prophets, too?

But regardless that doesnt affect this discussion much.

Or someone thought up a way to manipulate their people through an all knowing make belive person...so then they would pass down and make up false stories to keep the people under control.

  That's actually not true.Many old religions have gone far away from their orginal beliefs.Even Chritianity doesnt believe in just one God does it?

But regardless that doesnt affect this discussion much.

WHAT are you talking about?  YES, it is true.  Christianity is a monotheistic religion.  You worship God and only God.  He is the only supreme being and the one you're judged, before.  I'm athiest and I know this.  Please stopDivergeUnify

I think he's probably referring to the Holy Trinity concept of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  The answer to that is that they aren't three separate entities; they're just three ways with which the same God interacts with the world.  The Father is God as he exists external to our world; the Son is God as he exists within our timeline; and the Holy Spirit is God as he exists ubiquitously and timelessly within our world.

It does get a bit confusing, though, I will certainly grant.

And yes I know he is considered the son of God but the fact that he is also considered a God means that christianity is not a monotheistic religion.

So if they have no soul they don't have to worry about God and going to hell then right?

What happens if jesus clash with God?

Who is jesus then?He is also considered God.

And yes I know he is considered the son of God but the fact that he is also considered a God means that christianity is not a monotheistic religion.

Thinker_reborn

Read my post. They're all considered different aspects of the same God.

Also, I'm interested in your answer to my question as to whether or not Zeus and Hera were also prophets from God (or God himself).

Being part of the same God and just having a single God is not the same thing.

Thinker_reborn

Jesus can't clash with God because Jesus is God.

Great monopoly another religion thread >_>

Maybe they just wanted to explain why things are the way they are.

He's not a God, he is the flesh of God.

Seriously, stop trying. The only type of Christianity that doesn't consider the holy trinity to be one force is Mormonism, and that sect fell much further from the tree than all the other denominations.

Well I know nothing about zeus and hera except that zeus was in god of war.:P

Eh just reading up on it,I dont believe in it being true at all.And btw we muslims believe that there were no female prophets ever.

So jesus as a separate entity is nothing?Infact he is not even a separate entity right? From what you are saying I wonder why is jesus given any importance "at all" since he is God himself and jesus itself is nobody.And how did jesus sacrifice and suffer when he is God himself in the flesh?God doesnt have to sacrifice nor suffer!Thinker_reborn

As for the think about the suffering... yup, it's completely unncessary.

Well it's certainly not true the way it is.However who knows zeus may have been a prophet and had his own miracles and now his history has just gone too far away from the truth.Thinker_reborn

And while Jesus might have been God, he was also a man capable of suffering.123625
