Religion & Spirituality - 9 July 2006

I hope everyone understands what I mean. I'm 17 years old, and so everything that's thrown into me from school and nonbelievers inevitibly leads me to questions sometimes. So my faith is not 100%. I still have questions that I need answered, even though I know God must exist. I have moments where I feel him, and others when I can't. So if I died today, would God have mercy on my soul and let me into His kingdom?

It's so bizarre. I don't believe in the Christian God, but I've never told a Christian that he/she 'doesn't exist'... yet this proposition is freely bandied about as regards atheists... Is this a childish attempt at half-understood existentialism?

And is it not highly ironic to find a Christian believer condemning other beliefs for not having 'absolute proof'?

Just wondering if there's any one else out there who gets told that they 'don't exist'...

Lots of Atheists will go onto Yahoo! Answers and just ask questions to make fun of us Christians. Why? We do nothing to you.

I don't mean ALL Atheists, just those who do.

Do you think a house or any other building/place can be haunted?
Have you ever felt a presence like you are being watched by something not human...when you're alone at home or even at work?
Or even when not alone?

Some misunderstood my earlier question so I will re-ask.

Is Jesus of the Bible the MOST famous person ever to live. That means ever in ANY category at any time in history.

If not who is?

Serious answers please! nothing like elvis, John Lennon, Fred Flinstone etc..very funny but only serious answers please!

Of course God..so other than God.

So many none "believers" ask questions repeatedly about the existence of God or others are blasphemous and offesive. If you say he doesn't exist then why you have so much interest in him and waste your time asking questions about God/Jesus/Christianity?

It makes me believe that you have though in the possibility that there is no God.

I don't ask questions every single say about the theory of evolution which challenge Christianity because I don't really care. Many people hereare Anti-God but I just keep living my life without bothering others. I don't believe in it so I am not going to waste my time asking questions that probably have been asked a million of times like some people do with Christianity.

Religion is supposed to bring people together, not apart right?
But wars are being fought in the name of religion.
What about marriage, would you dismiss marrying someone on the basis of their religion?

Only God has the power to judge other people. By judging people and telling them they will go to heaven or hell is equating oneself with God. Isn't this a form of idolatry?

I don't judge anyone and I never will.

I am Christian but I am so sick of hearing other Christians saying that just because someone rejects God and Jesus they will go to hell. If an Atheist is a good person throughout his/her life and did not commit any major sins, why would God send them to hell? Would God send a good person to hell just because that person did not believe in him?

Atheist: do you have absolute knowledge? No, in fact you couldn't even tell me how many hairs are on your left arm. The statement: 'There is no God' defines 'ATHEIST' and is an absolute statement that requires ABSOLUTE KNOWLEDGE. I believe it was Edison that said we do not know 1% of anything out there. But lets just say that the athiest reading this has a whopping 50% knowledge of EVERYTHING in the universe. That means you know what is under and in 50% of the moon rocks, 50% of all sea creatures, if we say you have 50% knowledge of EVERYTHING (which is impossible for you to have this amount) but let's say you do. Here is the question: Is it possible, that there is ample evidence for the existence of God in the OTHER 50% knowledge that you have yet to discover? If you are honest, you must say it is POSSIBLE the evidence exists cuz you don't have 100% knowledge! So therefore by the very definition, you cannot be an atheist, you are agnostic. You must now say you just don't know!

She was messing with him while he was married and alot of the people in the church (right now over 3,000members) know she is the cause of his last divorce. He is 25 years older than her and he is hitting on me. He put his hands on my behind at a dinner party and then he told me he wants me not her. My sister sees $$$ but believes he loves her. I have tried to tell her about him but she says I am jealous. I'm not jealous. What would you do if it was your sister and you loved her very much?

1 John 3:9-
John affirms here that "Whoever has been born of God does not sin." But in the first chapter he insisted that "If we say that we are without sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us" (1:8)

If the bible is supposed to be the word of God, how come man wrote it? Man also decided what went in and what stayed out. Doen't that mean man is God?
