Why then do I have to pray?? Doesn't he know what's on my mind?

And those child molesting priests, why hasn't God wiped them out with lightening??

If Satan was strong enough to take 1/3 of the angels to join him. Wouldn't they have good reason to join? If he is strong enough to stand up to God. Doesn't that make him a GOD?

i need some tips on how to influence this guy at my school (we are really good friends and have known ea. other since like kindergarden). he believes in evoulution and thinks that there is no possible way for "on 'all powerful' human could have created the world." We are really good friends but i still cant seem to convince him that the story of God and Jesus is true and i REALLY dont want for him to go to Hell. He jus doesnt believe anything i tell him. he says evoulution is in a science book, so it has to be tru but in the book it says its a theory and we said evoulution is in ONLY one book: a sci book. but the story of Jesus is in a History book && the Bible..but he said anyone could have made up a story and wrote it down. I realy need help with this kid because ever since i found out he believed evoulution i cant even look at him the same. I think about him a lot now and how i need to help him and this is mean but i seriously said that "i hope he gets in a car accident but

Do you believe there is such a thing as FREE WILL? or does god show you the way, but you have the free will to choose which way to go? does hell exsist, then, because if you believe free will does not exsist, why would a hell exsist if you really have no will over what you do? or does hell exsist because we have the will to make our own choices? and if you dont have free will, then why did adam and eve ever choose to eat from the forbidden fruit, even when they was sinless ( why would the thought ever enter man's mind if he was made to be like god, even if satan tempted them, isnt satan under god, and therefore, at the time, under adam and eve? does praying really help, because if god is almighty, isnt he going to do what he wills, and carry out what he has planned for you? really think about this....i believe that free will does exsist, that god shows the way and we chose whether or not to follow....what do you think?

this has caused a BIG discussion between my friends and I

Religion is something left over from the infancy of our intelligence; it will fade away as we adopt reason and science as our guidelines. ~ Bertrand Russell

Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion. ~ Steven Weinberg, Nobel Laureate in physics

Religion is the masterpiece of the art of animal training, for it trains people as to how they shall think. ~ Arthur Schopenhauer

Religion is what keeps the poor from murdering the rich. ~ Napoleon Bonaparte

Religion, like poetry, is simply a concerted effort to deny the most obvious realities. ~ H. L. Mencken

Religion is comparable to a childhood neurosis. ~ Sigmund Freud

Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool. ~ Voltaire

Religions are founded on the fear of the many and the cleverness of the few. ~ Stendhal

If so why was the serpant allowed in? If God allowed the serpant in the garden of eden doesn't that mean that god is truely responsible for the fall of man, since it is he who first introduced sin in the garden?

............. simply by virtue of belonging to a particular religious group and that anyone who does not belong to the same group is going to some kind of "hell" no matter how good a person they are.
