Just being curious I saw 30 days on FX last night. The show was about an atheist woman living with a christian family. I am neither christian or atheist but I am curious if atheists have any believe in an afterlife. I understand they do not believe in a higher being.

it does not matter if you don't believe or not...Every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!! Once you see him part through the clouds, face to face, you will despise how you spent your life, and blame your own ignorance!

Some of the questions asked by so-called Christians, and their answers are so antagonistic, that they are meant to create polarization and hate. It's truly embarrassing, and I'm sure it is meant to be.

Christ was inclusive and non-judgemental of sinners and non-believers. He converted them not by rhetoric and guilt, but by action, acceptance and character.

Here is my challenge, if you are a Christian, act it. Do not be like the Pharisees and Sanhedrin that Christ despised. Do not judge. Just state your own beliefs and the impact in your life. Do not pray for others unless they approve, it is false pride when you do.

Take the high road and not the low road. That's all.

Does anyone else feel this way?

The Christian Bible states that God spoke to Noah as well as Moses.

It also says that no man could hear the voice of God.

So if merely hearing the voice of God would kill someone or no man is able to hear the actual voice of God, then how did God speak to Moses and Noah?

I'm reposting this because some idiot reported it on the grounds of being chatting/correspondence. Clearly this is not the case and I send customer care a nasty letter asking if they even bother reading the reports they get to see if they fit what they're reported for.

I don't mind getting reported, but I feel bad because there were around 30 answers on this question and some of them were really amusing and good.

Therefore, I'm rebelling against the system and reposting so that everyone can have the chance to make their voice heard for good.

People have so many different opinions about so many things. And as a consequence people are OFFENSIVE about so many things.

Why should insulting religion or God be singled out for special treatment as blasphemy?

And please don't answer with "People shouldn't be offensive about anything". This is the real world, and people WILL be offensive, and you cannot always predict what some people will FIND offensive. I want to know why blasphemy should receive special treatment in the annals of potentially obnoxious behaviour.

Do Muslim people planned to change UK to a moslim country?

Lots of the moslim groups in Europe have register themselves as a charity to get money from the European governments and other charity sources.
It is very shocking when you are told Lots of those mosque which are teaching medieval rules and spread hatred among young moslims are getting money from government!?

Do you think government should stop giving money to religious groups?

I'm an agnostic not trying to convert anyone just seeking answers.
It has been suggested that empirical evidence for believing in the Judeo-Christian God exists in the Bible. That God spoke to Noah and Moses.

But, how can we really be sure God talked to Moses and Noah? How do we know this, since Moses wrote Genesis, that Noah and God really talked? How do we know Moses really talked to God, and didn't just come up with a religion and laws to control people?

If you believe that God spoke to Moses but not to any of the other people who started a religion, would you apply the same skepticism to those who believe in that religion today and ask the same question, how do you know that Muhammad really talked to Gabriel for example and didn't just start his own religion?

Is there any real empirical evidence of Muhammad talking to Gabriel, or of Moses talking to God? Many religions say that God talked to someone a long time ago. What makes Christianity different?

No matter what you believe in, there is definately a change undergoing on this earth. Wars, rumors of wars,natural disasters, more heinous crimes and the downgrading of our values are widely seen.

Surely people understand that terrorists are a minority group, and that their views do not represent that of the majority of Muslims? Can't people see that thay are making innocent Muslims lives hell by generalising them all as terrorists, and that much of the hatred in the world today is due to our own ignorance and reluctance to listen to other people views?

a pedophile, not a priest, but a regular old sick *** pedophile goes into confession and confesses his sin of raping boys and girls and the priest absolves him, and tells him to turn himself in to the authorties. the pedophile doesn;t do this, and he will be held accountable in the eyes of god and go to hell. Ok I get that. But what about the boys and girls that have been raped and will probably be raped by this man who has decided that he will just go to confession. Some of you feel that as long as he will be held accountable for his actions when he dies that that is enough. My question is, is it enough for those boys and girls that are being violated and scarred for life, what about the ones who have already been violated and the ones who are yet to be violated? Doesn;t the priest have some sort of responsibilty to report such crimes, and if not, why? I think it makes the priest who is receiving the pedophiles confession just as guilty and sinful.

Religious people who pray are a funny group. If they pray for something and it happens they say "God answered my prayer". If they pray and it doesn't happen, they say "it was God's will and meant to be". It's so funny to me. Have you ever thought that what you are praying for just might happen anyway? If God doesn't listen half the time anyway, they why pray? Just flip a coin it's easier.

1. What is faith in your mind?

2. Why do you believe in god?

3. Does your answer to question 2 match your answer to question 1?

4. If not, then why do you claim to have faith?

I'm an agnostic, not trying to convert anyone, just a question,

It has been said by many religious people that we are to have faith in God even thou there is no empirical evidence of God, and that if God wanted to give the world empirical evidence he would but what God wants is people who believe in him just based on faith.

So my question is, without any empirical evidence of God, how do we know that God wants us to have faith in God without any empirical evidence?

How can you know God wants you to have faith in God without any empirical evidence, without any empirical evidence to back up that that would be what God would want?

It would just seem to me like we humans are missing something, a MADE BY GOD 4006 BC cornerstone somewhere.

why would god come to Earth and make it so people couldn't understand each other for the reason that they were working well together. This is really a questin for people who take the Bible as literal fact.
