Anyone that doesnt believe in God, then reads the bible will find more ways to defend that idea. Have you ever seriously asked God to come in to your life for a time, and didnt get an answer, so it made you know there was no God?

And yes, I know they're still just people but C'MON! It's one thing to make the occasional slip up but jeez. In all honesty I just want an educated answer because it does puzzle me how this can occur, assuming that priests are TRULY ordained by God.

Today in many countries the Muslim brotherns are celebrating Eid ul Fitr. Eid-ul-Fitr is a religious feast that Muslims celebrate after fasting for 30 consecutive days. I met many young fellows today and wished them 'peace'.

This makes no sense to me. I called one of the help lines for a computer software program and I couldn't understand what they were saying because their English was so bad! How is this helpful?

If you pray to "it", does that make it a God? Many Catholics, right or wrong, pray to the Virgin Mary and to Saints. Does that mean the Virgin Mary is a God? Ancient Greeks prayed to Demeter for the harvest, but recognized Zeus as the most powerful God. Isn't that very similar the Catholics praying to the Virgin Mary for protection but recognizing "God" as the most powerful God?

I know some Catholic groups do. Where does the doctrine of transubstantiation come from?

This is the idea that there are some creatures that are so complex that if a part were removed during the evolutionary process then the whole system would stop working. I was wondering if there is a counter argument to this, just so I can see both sides of the debate...

....isnt evolution your religion?
Look at it this way. I believe God made everything in 6 days. You believe all the matter in the universe came together in a big bang, and it took BILLIONS of years, maybe even TRILLIONS, and poef here we are. So I believe God, my religion, you believe dirt, evolution, your religion. Whats the diffirence? I believe, and you believe.

I have seen the word god be distorted, and misused that it has lost it's meaning. Most christians in which has given christianity such a bad name use god as a way to convey fear, and guilt for being who we are. They subject people with promises and ridicule others for not believing in those promises. Athesits because of this if someone uses the word god, i have found you too also generalize this as being a word that chrisitians you to brainwash.
And I would agree that most atheists are intelligent people who do not conform to the ways of society, but it is through a rebellious nature, or of one from love? When I say god, I mean everything within, and cannot be defined, because another man can only define his own heart, not the hearts of others.
So I ask the question is god a higher source within, and beyond that is just a word to define something that cannot be defined?

During Jesus's time without all the advances in technology and the lack of history to learn from, people have had to be extremely gullible right? I beleive so. These days nobody believes it till they see it. With that in mind, if Jesus wasn't born until today and made his worldy appearance in 20 years would people believe him to be the messiah? My point is...is it possible that Jesus was just a crazy guy who believed himself to be the direct descendant of God and people of those gullible times got sucked into the entire facade? Do all you born agains really believe that Mother Mary was a virgin? Or is it possible that she got pregnant before marriage and lied about it because she didn't want to be labeled the town slut? Do you people really beleive all the STORIES in the bible to be true such as: moses spitting the sea, Jesus healing the blind. I need answers as to why people can still be so gullible.

We can see that everything that God has created goes in a circle of life. The bible verse that says that Adam was created from dust almost proves evolution. We can see that even animals use adaptation to insure their survival. Why do religions insist that there was some over night miracle and poof there is man.? Obviously God is very patient and slow on most matters. How long has man been waiting to be saved? So, why do people believe that he would fast at anything else? By the way...I know 1 day is like a thousand years to God. Even more reason to believe that evolution was used.

Do you ask and/or answer questions in this forum with an open mind, some intelligence, lots of common sensability, and nothing but truthfulness and honesty, without malice towards any one's ethnicity or religious beliefs?
