BELIEVING THAT GOD IS REAL IS NOT GOING TO MAKE HIM REAL.
We will never know if there is a god or not so why isnt everyone an agnostic
How do you know that the bible is the word of god?
If you have faith that the bible (you believe that the bible is the word of god w/o seein evidence) is the word of god why dont you have faith in Unicorns and Dragons
is it because there are no negative consecuenses if you dont believe in them?

This does not mean that I am afraid of reality. I accept evolution and I even welcome science. I know these things are real partly because I am studying them (studying for RN degree), plus I work in a hospital. Despite that a belief in God, doesn't not erase my ability to conceptualize reality.

...the dinosaurs? They not only believe it, they are so delusional that they think they can actually show evidence of it. It is incredible that religion shamelessly, and proudly, perpetuates such ignorance.

I do not believe that Noah's Ark ever existed. Basically, I want to know what other anecdotes in the Bible are disputed. Did they happen or did they not?

Jonah and the whale would have to be another one.

If so many stories are disputed even by Christians, does that allow you to further question Christianity?

I notice that not a single answer (with the exception of a couple of obscure references to coins) provided any specific details as to why anybody actually believed in Caesar or the acts he performed during his lifetime. Overwhelmingly, the answers centered on first-hand contemporary accounts. Of course, the New Testament is composed primarily of first-hand accounts of Jesus' life. So why is it that Christianity is deemed unreasonable and mocked by atheists while they are willing to accept Caesar's life without actually having read any direct evidence of him (since no atheists actually provided any specifics)? And is it true (as the responses suggest) that atheists accept many things as factual without any evidence? Isn't this absolutely contrary to atheists' claims?

Not my ex but my hubbys'..she is a vindictive, nasty, mean, evil hag who is a horrible waste of flesh. Not only has she told her children (whom I adore), that she wishes she never had them, sent 1 to a mental health place (she drove her daughter to try suicide), has berated,belittled and over manipulated their lives. She has emotionally,spiritually, and emotionally battered these kids and my ex. She has just admitted that she cares not for the kids only the $$ she can get out of my man, she has also admitted to coming after my man ( financailly or physically) once the kids are 18. I have been and known my husband for 2 years, he is the sweetest most caring loving person I know, who does sometimes give his shirt off his back to someone who needed it. She had beaten my man so hard once that he had brain swelling. She has manipulated many people with her lies about him and lies just to make herself look better, to get what she wants from people. UGH!!! HELP

I've been told stuff like this by friends.

I've heard there is a fallout shelter inside every Mormon church. That they have a year's supply of food and possibly weapons and communication equipment.

Now, I don't personally know any Mormons, but I've also heard that this information is 'classified'.
I'm not joking or making this up, just repeating what I was told ad trying to find out some real facts.

Is any of what I say true?
Am I dead wrong?
Since I'm not LDS, can I even be told?

SERIOUS ANSWERS ONLY, PLEASE.
Otherwise, I'd have stuck this question over in Polls and Surveys.

The LORD then said to Noah, "Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.

In the fourth generation your descendants will come back here, for the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its full measure."

"O unbelieving generation," Jesus replied, "how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me."

At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other...Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. I tell you the truth, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.

When Jesus was on earth in the human form, was he omnipitent? If so, then why did he quote, "I alone can do nothing." and "Father, why have you forsaken me."

beliefs? I know you understandably fume over the fire and brimstone accusations as much as Christians are bothered by atheists thinking that they are a bunch of clueless flock following the herd.

But do ever find yourself just annoyed at a human being just for them having a belief in God without knowing anything else about them?
