They say there is no evidence that God exists. I say; there is no evidence that God does not exist either! It is not new that Christians are to believe by faith. God is so Big that he is everywhere at the same time.

I'm new to this Internet thing. I learned about computers when they only spoke "Cobal " and "Fortran" (called keypunch back then, only for science and business ).

3. "But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words" (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).

"concerning them which are asleep," If we die and go to heaven immediately, who are them which are asleep?

This is just one of so many filmed and photographed incidents of nature confirming my beliefs that Allah (swt) is indeed real. For me, that is, I don't want to force my beliefs onto anyone. But I do ask you to check out this video of a lion roaring the name of Allah (swt) multiple times.

What do you think of this?

It is said that god will judge believers and non-believers, living and dead, alike. Will non-believers be automatically condemned even if they never did an evil thing in their lives? What if they were not only good, but promoted nonviolence, love, peace, harmony, etc.?

All those who are about to say its rubbish and evolution is the definitive answer IT IS A THEORY YES A THEORY ITS NOT CALLED THE LAW OF EVOLUTION BUT THE THEORY OF EVOLUTION. sorry for rant but that does bug me

I noticed that some believe neither of the two are if I have read their answers right. So I wanted another chance to present my view from the bible and allow others to give theirs also. This is a hot topic for me and since I've done the research, can I challenge their theory with the facts in a friendly approach to this ? I hope so....

I see 'IQ is meaningless', or' IQ tests are all culturally biased' in just about every response to a question about IQ. What evidence are people that write this kind of thing referring to? What culturally skewed test are they referring to?

The front of the card has pictures of my two kids, ages 14 and 9. The 14-year old has a very boring "just take the stupid picture" expression on his face. The 9-year old has her arms around the 14-year old's waist and has a huge grin on her face, as if she is trying her best to irritate her brother. The words "Joy to the World" is written across the top.
I need to come up with something for the inside of the card. Something funny, maybe slightly sarcastic. I considered "Merry Frickin Christmas" but I don't think some of my relatives would approve. Any ideas?

ok, first people are trying to disprove other things. my favorite was " how do you know your parents gave birth to you, because they told you?"

DNA dumbass.

anyways, i have found that many people belive the bible because of their existance. now how do you know that is correct? humans being made from dust sounds pretty farfetched to me. evolution makes more sense then sudden creation. (as a creation-evolutionist, i believe that there was creation by the god-ess, then evolution took coarse, making animals and humans the way they are now). even if you could prove evolution wrong, and we were created, how do you know it was from dust? there are other religions and myths that say we got here in a different manner.
