Why do you need a God to tell you not to do those things?
I thought it was just common sense to treat people you want to be treated in order to maintain a civil society for you and your kids to live in.

I love every part of the female form (except maybe nose hairs) and find no amount of exposed female flesh threatening or sinful or evil.

Religious weirdos, let me ask your neat little religious brain a question...if a woman does no harm to you, why should you have any care or complaint about what she does?

I remember hearing a religious freak obsessively rage on an on "I hate woman who dont where hijab...i hate woman who dont wear hijab". What do you do with that mentality?

The evidence says God, at around 1,347,040 people which he killed in the bible. Of course this doesn't include outside the bible.

Here's an article with a chart that lists all the people that god killed:

Of course, I should mention that saying "god killed" is metaphorically speaking since this god doesn't actually exist and the bible itself is a mythical book.

This is in reference to those claiming "God" exists based on the claim his non-existence has not been proven.

So, if things can be conclusively proven to not exist, please name all the things you can prove do not exist. And, the proof to support your claim of non-existence.

Thanks.

("God" refers to the biblical or creator God)

How do you view/picture the christian God?

2006-08-08 17:58:46 · 15 answers · asked by Elisa 2

We hear of Baal-actually how many other Gods are mentioned in The Bible? Weren't the Romans worshipping Zues (The Greeks Apollo) at the time of Christ? They both had numerous Gods and yet I don't recall them being mentioned-what is mentioned is that certain tribes had other beliefs but what were those beliefs? And forgive me but please do not mention Christianity as it never appears in that form in either book (nor none of the sects that followed of were created after AD)hummm?

This is a real practice that women, especially in underdeveloped countries, are paid up to 200 USD to grow the baby to the right age, which are harvested between 8-12 weeks.

Apparently this is a growing trend in which women are traveling to various place around the world to receive this "treatment".

I am so disgusted it is beyond belief. Not only is abortion about as evil as it can get, this rubs salt into the wound further objectifying the unborn for our own personal gain.

If any doubt the claims I have made or simply want to learn more feel free to click on this link.

We most definitely have been traveling down the slippery slope for sometime. I only hope we can put on the breaks before we as a society, totally unravel.

I have a friend who sincerely believed God would heal by his exercise of faith healing. Ive known him forever and have not ever seen him do anything that doesnt fall softly into simple human experience.

However, I assure you, the is 100% sincere and "believes". No amputee has ever been "healed" right? Thats because the healing process can be objectively observed.

Ive done some research on this and never run into any real proof of faith healing...put another, nothing that doesnt otherwise happen outside faith healing...follow?

I think most people understand this subconsciously, but like Andy Kaufmann, when afflicted, will try anything. If we understand this is fakery and healings just dont work, does it not follow that prayer also...doesnt work? After all, an attempt at healing is just another type of prayer, in both cases, we ask for supernatural help.

Oh I know, you want to tell me how God works "you see, if your heart isnt purple and glowing...then he wont help ya"..sigh.

As a single Christian girl, it is so hard to be patient and wait for the guy God has picked for me. I know that he is out their somewhere. I guess that I am just curious. It seems like to me all of the nice, guys that are faithful to God have all been taken. I guess that I just need to be patient. I know "He" is out there somewhere.

I saw someone saying that "Just because some Hindus flew into the towers, doesn't mean that all Hindus are bad." I'm just curious if this is a common mistake, for people to confuse Hindus and Muslims.

If your god and son both are men so it shows women are degraded.If son of god is a human then god might be human.If son of god is visible so why god is not visible?What do you think?

.Allah is one with no sons and daughter and he is not either a male or female.

I know that pergatory is a place between earth and heaven, where the souls who aren't totally pure go. Frankly shouldn't that be a pit stop for us all? My understanding is that we wait there until God reclaims the earth and all souls. Who can tell me more? All I really know about it is what I read in Dante's books which of course are mythical but still fascinating.

I am a Christian and I have two Wiccan friends. One of which became upset and spoke in an odd language on another person. Was that a spell? And if so, how would one go about cancelling it to protect the other person?

Like, it states they should cover their head; so why don't they do it?

It says: 'every woman who prays or prophesises with her head uncovered dishonours her head'? Do women just read the bits that say men must submit?

A self-righteous religious person sees no grey area, "my God said we must live this way!". When a self-righteous religious person kills someone based on a religious belief, they feel no guilt, quite the opposite, they feel they have served God and will even praise him before and during the killing as with the infamous "Alluah Akbar" before and during a murder.

Go to death row and look at the lowest of the low. Some of them feel guilt for their crime. Some feel nothing. But it is only the self righteous religious murderer that feels fullfillment, that instead of being emptied or guilted to depression they are edified and martyred.

Nothing is so vile and so inhuman as the self-righteous religious person.

I'm Korean war veteran and I killed plenty of enemies in my time and I've seen plenty of buddies killed. I've stood shoulder to shoulder with some of the toughest and bravest men on this planet. But there was this one guy, PFC Jerry Weckler, who was in our Marine platoon who said he was an atheist. He was always smarting off like some of these college kids on Yahoo. Nobody liked him in our squad. The first time our platoon got fired on, there was Jerry cowering in the bushes, his pants soaked with piss and he was praying out loud to God to save his sorry @ss. Hah! No atheists in foxholes!

Sorry to say, but these pansy @ssed atheists we have today, who ain't never seen combat, wouldn't last a day in the field. The need a good @ss whooping or to be fired on by an AK-47 or better yet to have a greenade land at their feet. You can bet they'd all be praying to God. Quicker and slicker than Crisco on hot skillet!

Why would an all powerful, all knowing, all loving, god have a "hangup" about whether we believe in him(her,it) or not. It's strange.

I was listening to some songs by 2Pac and know I shouldn't judge things if I don't understand what they have been through.

"So much pressure in this life of mine, I cry at times
I once contemplated suicide, and woulda tried
But when I held that 9, all I could see was my momma's eyes
No one knows my struggle, they only see the trouble
Not knowin it's hard to carry on when no one loves you
Picture me inside the misery of poverty
No man alive has ever witnessed struggles I survived
Prayin hard for better days, promise to hold on
Me and my dawgs ain't have a choice but to roll on"

I agree we are not aware of the struggle, we only see the trouble.

Many people who apologize for Islamist wars everywhere in the world do so with the belief that "its only a few". After all, all religion is inherentally good therefore we cannot look to the religion as the source of the problem...or so the reasoning goes.

Ok then, what is it about religion itself which is inherentally good such that, no matter what horrors people do in its name, no matter how often, certainly it couldnt not be the religious doctrine itself that gives rise to this...because after all, its a religion...and all religions are inherentally good.

The Aztec religion required them to rip-out thosands of pumping "hearts" from the live vicitim to scarifice to the sun God...do you then absolve this practice or are you a Aztec bigot? Oh, dont tell me, it wasnt a monotheistic religion right, thats the key difference...why?

Look, beliefs are beliefs. Nazism was a belief with written doctrines. Ultimately theres always an idealogy behind the horrors of the world...right?
