I saw this interesting response to a question asking atheists why they do not believe in god (obviously not from an atheist). Is this necessarily true? Is the opposite of believing in God to deny God? Is the opposite of believing in the Flying Spaghetti Monster to deny the FSM? Is the opposite of believing in Allah to deny Allah? Do you have to go so far as to deny something that does not exist, or is failing to believe enough?

Thoughts?

I looked up the word and it said "sin is a condition of the heart, and Jesus traced sin to inner motives." Sin is also defined as a violation of the righteous nature of God. So I looked up righteousness and it said it was "to be in the conformity with God's character, and accomplish God's righteous purposes with sinners." So what is sin? Is it a list of the things written in Romans that we should not do? If so, where does inner motives come in to play? Is is all about practicing a certain behavior or is it the consequences of that behavior that is a sin?

Oh by the way, we are going to discuss the failed Bush administration and how we can get this nation back on track.

I have led a life that is mostly without sin, by most people's definition of the word "sin". I have tried to reduce the suffering of my fellow man. My conscience is clear.

Yet I cannot believe. I am an atheist. I doubt there is much that is real in the Bible---I know the history of its origins, and I think it likely that it is a dubious transcription of ancient fictional stories. I doubt that the Jesus story is anything like historical truth. I doubt there is anywhere like Hell, but, of course, one cannot be certain about such propositions. The fact that many people and cultures have believed is some evidence for its existence, and it seems like a place that should be avoided at all costs. Yet I cannot participate in Pascal's wager---I simply don't believe, and cannot make myself believe.

If "butt" means buttock, then why does "butt" mean "hit with head" not "hit with buttock"? Please help me?

What is Hanukkah? I wasn't raised in a Religious House so I know nothing about the different faiths, is it the Jewish Christmas? if so, I thought all faiths Celebrate the Birth of Christ on the same day.

We read in the King James Version...

John 3:16 - For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Only begotten means, only one Born from the Dead. How He rose from the dead in the Flesh...

Now.....

We take the other versions of the Bible.... (NIV and others)

John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

This verse PROVES the NIV is wrong. Because Jesus is NOT God's "One and only son", Adam was called Son of God! Also, we are Sons and Daughters of God, Adopted by the Blood of Jesus.

Now you have been shown. If you continue to use a counterfit Bible, that is on you.

I am neither a believer or non-believer. Im an agnostic I've heard. Everyday my doubts grow stronger on if there is a "God". My doubts are stronger than ever today. My friend has been fighting brain cancer for 2 years. He now has to give up and just die because there has been, and is no longer anything they can do. He is 30 years old, a Navy Seal, a true humanitarian, man of God, and has a beautiful 5 year old daughter who he is leaving fatherless in this world. Someone please explain to me why a gracious and loving God would take such a person out of this world? Leaving this baby without her father to be raised by grandparents. I don't understand. I have heard that God works in mysterious ways...this is not mysterious to me, its wrong. Not sure what my question is exactly, just venting a little. Thanks for listening.
