IF there is a God and He loves me and does not want me to suffer/hurt....then why won't he let me die......?

I tried suicide many times for the past 8 years and obviously still here and suffering, if not worse than before.....

control a person? Control means to command, make, and force. I'm a Christian and I have the same rights, privileges, and freedom as do you. Living location, schooling, work, R&R, buying, selling, etc. etc. I can do these things just like anyone else. So-How am I being controlled? I'm not forced to go to church and I'm not forced to give money. I might be asked to do so. but I'm not forced to do so. Religion doesn't force me to keep the commandments. But keeping the commandments is good for you and good for me. Is there something wrong with keeping "thou shall not steal"? Is it supposed to make me say that whatever the government does is fine and I'm not supposed to "rock the boat"? I can protest, run for office, belong to a union, etc. just like you can. Is the media, radio, TV, movies, newspapers, and all laws controlled by religion? Please, name what specific thing religion has FORCED YOU TO DO. How is religion forcing/controlling me? How is it trying to force & control you?

... or do you think that doubt itself is the problem?

Is the "pain" of a broken arm the problem or is the broken bone the problem? Is the "insecurity" of your belief in God, the after-life, prayer and the like, the problem or is the problem actually in what you'd like to believe but can't?

Non-believers are welcome to add comments, of course.

answer me: how a god die?




Dead" means lifeless and devoid of all powers. So if he died, then someone else had to bring him back to life, since he is devoid of all powers. Therefore, he can not be God.

and why did he eat or drink and use toilet if jesus was god.



also in the bible it says that Jesus worshiped god and that tells you that he was just prophet. if not How can god worship God.




we believe that the bible still has the orginal teachings of jesus(peace be upon him) but people changed it over time.

One of our neighbors boasts he does not believe in God - or Jesus - or anything Biblical. That is fine - to each his own. We all have a right to believe or not believe as we see fit. But, he is the first on our block to erect giant Christmas scenes, flashing lights, and he even put that annoying wreath on the grille of his mini-van. Could he be a closet-Christian or is he just a hypocrite ?

I'm no saint..and i don't ask for anything for me...but once in awhile i get a bit overwhelmed by the day to day grind and would like a little comfort...all my prayers go unanswered...i pray for an end to violence..for the poor and hungry...for those who are in need..but it seems to be all for naught....but if you read this...I hope you are happy and in good health...I pray that God is well and not too displeased with us....I even pray the Devil has a good day once in awhile....

Why do the "atheists" like to hang out in the "religion and spirituality" section? I find it ironic.
