why do people view atheists and immoral depressed misguided unintelligent people with no feelings? We have feelings the same as u we experience love and because we see nothing after this life we dont put down upon this life we live it up because its all we got. When we do good will and charity we dont do it out of fear of punishment if we dont in the next life but rather we do it out of the good of are hearts. wearnt afraid of the unknown and we dont fight wars because we think we are more right than others. why do when we not know something we can admit it when many others in religion make up so biblical excuse for it? im not saying all of u but a good amount of u do. Why are we portrayed as evil and immoral and wrong doing when in reality we are successful and many of us are very intelligent. i mean its proven int he fact that 90% of people believe in some form of god yet 94% of all scientists dont believe in god? any rants? if u didnt read it dont post. why do people hate atheists

Language of heard speech, language of typewritten word, sign language, written, facial expression . . . there is also a very real language of the soul. It has no sound, is not verbally spoken, can not be seen as it's energy...quiet yourself...even for two moments...can you " hear ", " feel ", the exchanged communicated language of the soul ?- Sit in peace for a moment before replying. Wondering who can sense it.

I was reading a book and it had this arguement for God not existing, that I just can't fault. In sound mind and with much thought, I can't get around it. I'm not attacking theist's beliefs, but can a believer not see how crystal clear this is?:


A God, by definition, is all knowing and omnipotent (can do anything)

So, if God knows everything, he knows EXACTLY how he will intervene in our lives in the future - be it through miracles, or answering prayers etc. He will know every minute detail.

If he already knows exactly what he will do, then he can't change his mind.
He couldn't say, be considering option A, then change his mind to option B - there wouldn't have been an option A in the first place since he would have know what his final decision would be.

If he can't change his mind...then he isn't omnipotent - there is something he can't do.

In which case; A God can't exist. A being that knows all and can do anything, does not work.


What's your opinion on this?

The notion of disaster striking the earth and a male and female from every species being spared. Do you fully believe when the Bible claims the need will never arise again. Or do you think this may be a lesson for us to be prepared in the face of disaster.

People complain they eat too much at Christmas. There is always leftovers usually thrown out after aparty.With so much hunger and homelessness why cant we share more with people in need instead of throwing good food out. Jesus didThis year I chose to keep things simple for Christmas.I elected not to go to family for Christmas because they have 4 course mealsand spend the restof the day complainingthat they have eaten too much. I only feel guilty and seehungry faces of starving children and Iget angry.All the money that is spent on food that we dont need could goes towards famine. I felt God saying to me make a sacrifice.

Has this choice affected society?

Btw I'm not saying that women should not be allowed to work. The Prophet Muhammad's wife Khadeejah was a succesful businesswoman, but she did not shirk her responsibilities as a mother?

Why do a lot of western women not like the most wonderful job in the world, motherhood?

He did say "as the lightning travels from East to West so shall I." Did this have anything to do with it?

it doesn't make sense to me. why wudn't you believe jesus is the son of god but believe he existed. the bible says he was born as from a VIRGIN name mary. if she was a virgin, that means she gave birth to a child without a father. so therefore, why dont you believe the fact that he was the son of god. he's not the son of Joseph because joseph didn't have sex with mary to born him or have his blood in him.

after reading this, can u explain to me who you think jesus is the son of if you dont believe he is the son of god? and he isn't the son of joseph? im just curious

You believe in a ultimate cause, just not a personal God, but logically they are the same thing and serve the same purpose,or fill the same position in a rational system. Except we give it more detail, we go further and say that this cause is not just some random act of conglomerate power and mass. We say you do not go back far enough, you have stopped at an unexplained ,another natural in need of a cause, whereas we go to the final definiton of what must be. Which must by logical necessity be Something as ridiculous and absurd as a God existing forever, so that we might as well accept that it IS GOD.
Is this a fair analysis to you?

On this planet of Death,
Flows an eternal river of blood,
The screams of buchered animals doesn't stop...
For the pleasure of the insatiable tongue!
Though Mother Earth gives us plenty of fruits,veg,
And Mother Cow,plentiful of pure milk,
Humans don't cease to sin against Mother Nature..
The result:endless wars and conflicts...
Endless diseases,due to satanic food....
Endless tears on this planet,
That was once paradise!

All the contrary, they fight if someone wants to hurt or kill them and/or their families.

Isn't that hypocritical?

i have a child that is biracial(black-hispanic) and while she partly looks like me as far as skin color you can tell she has traits of spanish. She is beginning to ask questions about where she came from and noticing that her skin is lighter than mine. Should i tell her the truth now or wait a couple of more years? What is the moral thing to do? she is 4. if i do tell her the truth, should i tell her everything including facts about her biological mother? i really dont know what to do. I love her so much and dont know how she will react or think towards me.
