Amanda Dowri made a statement that 100% of people do not believe in God. I disagree and think that most people believe in the existance of some kind of higher being/self, So speak up. who out there believes in something higher than our physical plane?

Yeah, I've been there too. I say this in love.......people can barely drive cars without having problems. There's only One who knows everything. That's Father God. There's only one way to Him. That's Jesus Christ (John 14:6). I don't know everything but, I know who does. Peace (John 14:27)

Can we assume that logic is a human concept?

Can we assume that logic cannot prove, dispove, or discuss anything that is supernatural in origin?

Can we assume that God can only be known or 'explained' by faith?

Last night she was doing laundry in the basement with her daughter. There is a light by the washer and dryer and another light on the other side of the basement by some boxes. Well it was off but she could see over there. Both her daughter and herself came running upstairs crying and she had said she saw her former fiance. Is this him or something else? I know she isn't going crazy because she went to see someone today about it and they said she was fine. When I looked down the stairs I saw something moving and no one was down there not even her cat. What could this be?

The prayer of Jabez was such a hugething a couple of years back, I was just wondering if people still thought about it, or if it was a fad that officially died.

Ok, I've been reading your responses to my previous question and I've got another thought for you to feast your minds on. Lots of you agree that religion is the cause of many problems, and then some others are saying that the people of that religion are actualy the cause as opposed to the religion itself.

In some ways, once again this is only a question please don't be offended, God and for example Santa Clause are very similar. Santa Clause is baisicly the name given to the act of giving during the festive season. God is a name given as an explanation for the exsistance of everything. The only difference between the two is Santa clause doesnt exsist and God's phyisical exsistance is debatable. There is no hard evidence to support the exsitance of God and yet billions of people around the globe worship him. Could it be possible, only a suggestion, could it be possible that the Idea of God is just that, an Idea, something for people to fall back on when times get rough?

I have always questioned things, from the time I was very young. I was constantly in trouble with my religion teachers, the nuns and the priests for asking hard questions. I needed a better answer than "you gotta have faith" or "god works in mysterious ways". Then one day I decided that if god wanted me to believe in him, he needed to give me a sign that he is really there. Any sign. And guess what? Nothing. I was looking and looking, crying Please god, just give me any sign at all. Nothing. A bird flying past or single drop of rain would have been enough. I didn't miss it. But I did get a message and it was loud and clear. There is no god. Why would god give me the ability to question his exsistance, and then when I ask him to proove he exists, he ignores me? That is when I started to look in other directions and it felt like for the first time in my life, I found happiness. The guilt inside of me was gone! Has anyone else had an experience like this?

More importantly, he gave a good message that was behind them:

Mattheew 24:37-39
"For the coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

And also a quote from Jesus that would affirm the belief in 'the rapture'--apart from the biblical verse "The true followers of the Lord shall meet him in the air":

Mat 24:40-41

"Then there will be two men in the field; one will be taken and one will be left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one will be left."

Do you believe a lot of the things Jesus said were true and good morals to live by?

i had a few tell me that God created us from NOTHING.

Genesis 2:7
7 the LORD God formed the man [e] from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.

Genesis 2:22
22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib [j] he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.

there u have it, men created FROM DIRT, women FROM RIB.

explain how we were biblically we were created from nothing when the bible tells us what we were created from....?

Lewis Carrol might define it like a pelican, but bookier. Hopefully the rest of you get the inference.
