About 5 minutes ago, I asked "what if god is fake?" 90% of the answers were all about them not taking a chance on going to hell. About a month ago, I asked is the belief in god fear based. Not one believer admitted to it. Why? I asked the same questions to people in person and it's always the same contradictions. They bring up not taking a chance in going to hell when it comes to them being wrong but when I ask them is their belief in god fear based, they say "no"

I was honest with my therapists and they are all freaking out. I told them since i was raped I am three people inside. One who has been hurting, another who is trying to help her and then me as I watch it all and pray. I hope I am doing the right thing. My mother is so upset. I am in a place where I can sign myself out if I want....at least I think I can. Maybe not after what I said today but I started making deals with my counselors today. I said i would be honest if I could have computer time and phone time. Everytime I call out people say I better be quiet or Ill be here 4ever. I could lie and say Im better and this all would end in a day or two. All day today I felt so strange and sometimes good. Please pray for me that I make the right decisions.

What the Bible says about Cannibalism
Sometimes God forces people to eat other people, often their own children or other family members.
"I also will do this unto you... You shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it." -- Leviticus 26:16
"And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat." -- Leviticus 26:29
"And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body, the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters." -- Deuteronomy 28:53
"And toward her young one that cometh out from between her feet, and toward her children which she shall bear: for she shall eat them." -- Deuteronomy 28:57
"Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire: no man shall spare his brother. And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied: they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm." -- Isaiah 9:19-20
"And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine." -- Isaiah 49:26
"And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend." -- Jeremiah 19:9
"Therefore the fathers shall eat the sons in the midst of thee, and the sons shall eat their fathers." -- Ezekiel 5:10
"I will not feed you: that that dieth, let it die; and that that is to be cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest eat every one the flesh of another." -- Zechariah 11:9
Sometimes the Bible just reports, often with apparent relish, cases of cannibalism.
"This woman said unto me, Give thy son, that we may eat him to day, and we will eat my son to morrow. So we boiled my son, and did eat him: and I said unto her on the next day, Give thy son, that we may eat him." 2 Kings 6:28-29
"The hands of the pitiful women have sodden their own children: they were their meat." -- Lamentations 4:10
"Who pluck off their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones; Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and they break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron." -- Micah 3:2-3
"Heap on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burned. Then set it empty upon the coals thereof, that the brass of it may be hot, and may burn, and that the filthiness of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed. She hath wearied herself with lies, and her great scum went not forth out of her: her scum shall be in the fire. -- Ezekiel 24:10-12

this topic has never made sense to me. it really doesnt matter what others think of you, because they are the ones that have to deal with the emotions of liking you or not. part of what adds to this problem is that people are so quick to judge a person with out even knowing as much as ones name. this really irritates me, because they are entering an unknown area with way too much confidence. they really have no idea what they are getting into, but always have to act like they do. i ask this question because often times people dont think about it untill it is asked.

I'm a Christian and many people ask this. This is my opinion...God gave us free-will. God upholds this so much that he allows us the choice to not believe in him, spit and crucify him. My point is that if God definitely proved himself then we would HAVE to believe in him. This is NOT the way God wants us to believe him, he wants us to voluntarily want to know him first with real love and not under a forceful act.Peace. Wut do u think>?

I really cannot understand why the so many interllectual people on this site who seem to be able to prove that God does not exist are on this forum. It really is confusing, you curse and make fun of religious people, but yet you are on a forum that states religion. What in the world is wrong with you people? You say we force our beliefs on you, yet you are trying to force us to believe your views on our religious section, Hello!!. It just clearly proves to me that the devil is hard at work, he is using the ignorance of the masses to try and discourage true believers. Ask yourself, why am I angry about a God that does not exist? Why am I angry about the questions people ask on a religious forum, when I do not believe or when I should not be here if I am not interested in religion? Why am I angry with a God of love? The answer to your question is you have allowed the devil to cloud your mind and harden your heart with his hate.
