God may exist. God may not exist. Some people believe in God through their religion. Some believe without a particular religion. Everyone has their own variations of what may be true. Noone knows the truth. Noone can know the truth. But at the very least, nobody actually KNOWS for sure that they KNOW the truth. It's all opinions based on some fact-like things (the Bible) or just plain intuition or blind faith. And that's fine. The Bible may be accurate or it may be incorrect about some things too. It was written by man and translated by humans many years later. There must be at least one error in it somewhere.

Why do people care whether or not God exists? If he does, and you don't believe, you will be forgiven. But as long as you live great moral lives, he certainly can't be that mad at you. Especially since it's his fault he didn't provide more evidence of his existence. We have Free Will but those who are genetically prone to be more skeptical seem to be flawed Creations of God.

Me being black never knew any were on welfare, that's why I ask for your help. Because no one teaches these things, it takes someone who has prejudice stereotype kind of motive to even be concern with what another race does.

What class do I go to find people stereotyping opinions on the black race? Even if they are not true, it a lot of stereotyping going on. Because when the race issuse comes up their is always someone with a stereotype opinion of the "Black race".

Christian or Atheists or any other religion, then why get so upset as to rant about your beliefs to those who ask some of the questions they ask here on this forum?

It happens to all of us. Often at the most inconvenient moments. Like early in the morning or when you're in the middle of an important meeting. Tele-marketing agents have fast become the most annoying people to have access to your phone number.

Credit cards, home loans, personal loans, holidays, mutual funds -- they sell it all, often calling with the same product or service twice a day.

Are you comfortable with these callers? Do you think they have something genuinely useful to offer?

Or would you rather call them instead, when and if you need something specific? Should tele-marketing be banned?

Can you come up with another reason outside of the "He works in mysterious ways" response? Because then I would be compelled to ask, "Why all the secrecy?" To test our faith? Heck, He puportedly rubbed our collective noses in the "fact" of his existence about 2000 years ago. What, did he take an extended vacation in the Andromeda Galaxy? Maybe He lost interest in us?

Have you ever wondered if Calvin was wrong in ordering the death of Michael Servetus?

Was this man's murder righteous?

Was this man's murder any different than those purpetrated by the Roman Catholic church?

I have always wanted to visit Ireland, but have never had enough $ to go, I would love to see the beautiful gardens and forest that I see in the photos from the internet. Also, visit and stay in one of the castles, visit with the culture, listen to the language and their myths & folk stories. Just a dream.
