Religion & Spirituality - 8 June 2006

I'm an atheist and every time I debate with a Christian and they dont have a comeback, they just say "I have faith", It's like an escape route. If they didn't use the "faith" get away thing, the truth will began to surface about how stupid their belief really is. What's the point in have faith? To force yourself to believe in something that has no evidence or logic to back it up? Why else would you have faith? It's not like having confidence. I never heard a Christian say "I have confidence in god".

When the Christians are once again killed for their faith???
Rev 18:24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
Rev 6:10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
Rev 6:11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
The people on the earth will be given the chance to kill the christians and to show how much they really hate Christianity.
Will those atheists on Yahoo answers be happy to have the chance to kill us ??? I think many of you will, but lets see how you answer.

Have you ever been hurt by a religious person or by the church which has caused you to lose faith in God or not want to be a part of God?

Agnotic means without the knowledge of God. Each religion claims to have a better knowledge of God than the next religion. That means to a Jew, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, Bhudists, etc are all mistaken. To a Christian, Jews, Muslims,Hindus, Sikhs, Bhudists, etc are all mistake...and on and on well,I think you know what I am getting at, So, who are the real agnostics?

I think so, there is a Catholic school call Saint John (they pray every day). Saint John is one of those shcools you would find in the newspaper because of volunteer work. Southwood Middle School (my school), people brought guns 3 times and 2 knives this year. There is a fight everyday. At the old school i used to go to, we prayed and nothing bad really happened.

else that many of the people who think they know the bible just repeat a few statements they've heard over and over and really haven't read it at all? Some of the more critical people seem to me to be much more knowledgeable.

in a few of my last questions, one of the answerers here keeps giving me the same answer. that answer is "get a brain, get a life, get lost"

i won't mention his name, not because i value his privacy, but simpy because it would give him too much credits.

i mean, that answer is somewhat funny once, but to almost all my questions? wouldn't it be better if Yahoo just gave us the option to deny a person the 2 points ?

Believers in god say that the parents of these children (http://www.deism.com/harrison.htm) were to blame because they were misguided and didn't go to doctors that god supplied them. How can believers in god say that god gave us doctors, but, he didn't give us rapists and murderers also?

- You can't say because doctors follow the ways of god and murderers don't: there are Christian murderers and atheist doctors.

- You also can't blame Satan: Satan was created by god, which ultimately still makes god responsible for murderers and rapists if he is responsible for doctors.

You can't say that god gave us doctors and not murderers and rapists, that doesn't make sense.

Why do people say that there is no God? I mean, that is so STUPID! If there were no God, where would we be? Who would have created us? Where would life be? Anyone who answers, please be as specific and detailed as possible. I am just dying to know the answer to this one.

Where in the Book of books does it say that homousexual has anything to do with attacking humanity? It says that it is a detestable act against God sure, but NO WHERE does it say that it has anything to do with destroying the moral fabric of an entire country! I mean, is ther anyone who honestly thinks letting the gay have their rights is going to make their children gay, or make their family horrible people? What have the gaysdone to US that WE as humans should hate them? Many are devout Christians!

Don't answer all my ?'s if you cant', but answer whichever you like.

I believe there is no wrong religion, as long as it does not support hurt on others. I think it is so interesting how all religions support the same ideas and many of the same morals. I believe that's beautiful, and I am so happy to realize that. What are some of the similairities that you notice? I am Catholic but I love learning about other religions, not so I can convert, but so I can learn even more about mine, and all the things that different religions share. :)

"But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the DAY that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." implying that Adam should have died ON THE DAY his wife convinced him to eat the apple, yet he lived another 900 years? Am I mistaken?
