Seems like a true god could speak to us in a language that could be understood by all people.

What is your proof (or clues)?
I believe in God and I don't know how to explain people that God exists

Would you label him a liberal, a non conformist, a conspiracy theorist. We would expect him to give us answers but would believe a complete stranger to tell u how it is? You would walk right past him and call him crazy wouldnt you. Would u expect him to perform a miracle to prove it's him. If that is what your waiting for, I am curious on the event you may desire. Well it seems while you are waiting, the open minded spiritual seekers who now and desire to really contribute to make the change. That's because "works" can't get u into heaven, am I right. Sit back and get manipulated a little more.

The bible says god made the world in seven days..... un ntil he created man which really doesnt make any sense because we use science (applied knowledge) to discover evolution.....

Before I turned away from Christianity, I once had the opportunity to go go on a Missionary trip. I refused after I realized that we were supposed to preach to people ignorant of God. I refused to give these people a chance of going to hell if they didn't stop their form of worship.

Why can't Missionaries leave well enough alone? Without knowledge of the Good Word, people are saved because they're ignorant. However, Missionaries still go out into foreign lands and invade tribes preaching about the Good Word, and essentially pulling a rug out from under said tribes.

These people were saved until the Missionaries showed up. Why do these people feel the need to give tribes a chance to worship what Christians worship? Why is it so important? These people are living happy, fullfilling lives as it is. If they we'ren't, you would see them trying to change thier way of life. Why do Missionaries want to ruin the balance these tribes have achieved?

I don't have the ability to look at the people I love (family and friends) and, with a clear conscience, see them as nothing but star dust or the result of some accident. I also can't look at the intricasies of human feeling and think there is no purpose to life. How do you do it? I would be very sad indeed if I believed these things. I want to understand you more and hopefully this provokes some thought that can give me some answers. This is not meant to be a malicious question. I really want to know how and why. One of my best friends from highschool is an atheist and I have great respect for his intelligence but he changed the subject when I asked him this same question. Thankyou.

I am currently wearing a crown of thorns and I often wear a dress (especially on weekends!). I seem to have an irrational fear of crosses and Romans (crucify me will they!!!). I can get drunk by drinking water. I am yet to perform a miracle.

Do you think that I will save you?

I was just wondering if you think that by repeating God is not real, that will change the FACT that He is real and will always be.

I am agnostic and a lot of my friends and family members fill up my inbox with religious forwarded messages. I know this sounds petty but it really annoys me. It easy to say "just delete them" but they all forward them to each other too so sometimes there are several of the same emails. So here I sit sorting through 20-40 religious forwards a day. It clutters my inbox and it flat out gets on my nerves. So would it be wrong of me to write a very polite email explaining that I am agnostic and to please refrain from forwarded me religious materials? I don't send them agnostic materials trying to convert them into my way of thinking and I don't like having religion force fed to me in any way. So what do you think?

I ask this because the government is not so suppose to be ruled in under religion so i don't think its right to have people swear on the bible or say ' "One nation under God", in the pledge of alligence. You can't say this is a free country if you putting millions of people under God. By the way I'm Christain i just don't like politically incorrect things or maybe its because I am only 14 years of age.

Apart from blind belief how can you believe in Christianity when it contains so many errors, contradictions and states facts that have been proven wrong beyond all doubt! (Such as saying that the earth began in 4004b.c. when we can prove that it is much older). Then this book is used as an excuse for war and atrocities, such as the crusades and the holocaust. Then it oppreses the people in expressing themselves in a way to be happy, such as the homosexuals and women (It may state that men and women are equal but woman priests only existed in the last quater centuary). After all the pain and suffering that Christianity (and other religions) has caused can you still stay firm in your belief!

Do you believe in dreams being warning or messages? I have dreams that i interprit and they come true exactly as the dream said. Daniel and Revelations have a report of the future which happened in the same way and Other things that haven't happened and we know about them and we can't stop them from happening.
Is this because they happened already and so we have no controll?

Why does everyone think that Christians are such bad people. I'm a Christian and It is not as bad as they say. Lots of people come to christ. You guys make it sound like we choose only the people we like to be saved.

As a Christian you listen to God and you do what he tells you because you want to become a true follower of christ. But when no one wants to listen to you try to help them. What's the point ? If you atheists out there want to burn in Hell that's your problem, But give us a chance

More importantly, I would like to share with you the Truth about the afterlife. I only tell you this because I care what will happen to you when you die. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, used God’s name in vain? These are just a few of God’s Moral Laws. When you die, God will judge you on the basis of His Moral Law. If you stand guilty before God of breaking His Laws, He will send you to Hell. If God is Just and Holy, He must punish lawbreakers. The good news is that God provided a way for you to be forgiven and go to Heaven. Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again to pay the debt for your sins and take your punishment. What you must do is Repent, which means to say you are sorry to God and turn away from your sins. Then put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Only then will you be accepted into Heaven, not because you’re a good person, but because you’re a bad person who’s been forgiven. Please give this some thought. Your Eternal Destination depends on it.

The very best way , to be sure you are getting the truth, But for those who are not capable of this, and have to take some ones word for it, Who"s word should one rely on? Language Doctors, Preachers , Parents or Q&A?

I propose we call it (S)he/it.

Anyone else in favor of this change?

I believe it would be a more correct description and politically correct.
