The three books; Bible, torah and Quran (although i only read the Bible) all say one way or another that there is a judgement after death conducted by God himself. For those who dont believe in God, what will you say to him when you find yourself in his presence when no one can save you besides Him? and why should he save you when you rejected him your entire life?

Have they learned nothing from Iraq where religion is taught in school? Don't tell me Christianity is a peaceful religion. We killed over a hundred thousand muslims so far and millions of Native Americans. The protestants and catholics have been at each others throats for many years in Ireland. If religion is going to be taught in schools, which religion? Will all schools be teaching the same religous sect? How will you feel if your child comes home convinced Allah needs him to kill christians, or tells you about John Smith and the other good mormons?

christians beliefs:
overcoming drug addiction = miracle by god's grace
rescue from burning building by firefighter = miracle by god's grace
cancerous cells diminish = miracle by god's grace
winning of grammy/oscar = miracle of god's grace
winning the superbowl = miracle of god's grace
rekindling relationship with loved one = miracle of god's grace
surviving a seriously car accident = miracle of god's grace

human qualities/spirit, common sense, logic beliefs:
overcoming drug addiction = person becomes aware, intervention of loved ones, goes thru rehab, etc. (human aspects)
rescue from fire = will of firefighters, determination to save a life, fulfilling job/promise to community, etc (human aspects)
cancerous cells diminish = advancements in treatments, administering medicine/chemotherapy, detecting cancer in first place, etc. (human aspects)

AND SO ON, AND SO ON.

christians, COMPLETELY DISCOUNT THE HUMAN ASPECT OF EVEYTHING THAT HAPPENS. AND THEY KNOW IT.

The Gospels in the Bible (which account for Jesus's life and message) were all written by different people/apostles at years apart in time and hundreds to thousands of miles apart (different parts of the world), and yet they all agree on the same story even agreeing on specific details about Jesus and his life. What do you make of this?

Apparently if it's not in the bible it's myth, so tell me why this ancient Roman God who bears light is evil, by only using your bible, and every passage or script you use should have the words 'Lucifer' in them, but 'ONE' rule...(not 10, lmao) YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO USE THE KING JAMES BIBLE?

If you do insist on using the King James, why not blame Yahweh?

Here is a passage from the King James:

[7] I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

So, in your 'holy' scripture ALL that is evil, IS YAHWEH, so blame him, he CONFESSES he created evil...

Sura 3:55 Behold! Allah said: "O Jesus: I will take you and raise you to Myself and clear you of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow you superior to those who reject the faith, to the day of resurrection: Then you all shall return to me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein you dispute."

Or did he question others who were falsely accusing Billy Graham?

It seems that satan is trying to cause division of Christian leaders by false accusation.

All I want to know is if atheists are typically this arrogant or not? They are all suggesting it is "smart" to be an atheist. Is this the work of the organization known as the "brights?"

"Atheism is for those who believe in thinking before typing..."
"Atheism is for the rational realists."
"Atheism requires thought, not just accepting some priest/pastor telling me something."
"Atheism is for people who are tired of being harassed by bible bangers and hypocritical self-righteous cattle."
"Maybe it is for the people who actually care to use logic and common sense."
"Atheism is for those who place enough value upon themselves and other human beings to reject religious dogma, having recognized it as the huge, stinking pile of dung it is."

Like, if there was inescapable full proof evidence that you couldn't avoid? Or if it turned out that one of the other religions was the correct one? What would you say?

Don't bother saying " Well that's never going to happen so I don't have to worry about it", because that isn't what I asked.

I've noticed that both religious people and atheists spend a lot of time here shooting one another's beliefs down. Why? Why do any of these people care what others think? Wasn't anyone here taught by his/her parents to respect other people's beliefs? I was just wondering, because it was one of the things my mother always tried to instill in me when I was growing up.

after searching i understood where the confusion of the Bible comes from.

for example in Islam, we can't mix God words with Muhammad words, God words collected in the Quran, and Muhammad words collected in a book called Hadith. prophet Muhammad at first was very careful for no one write anything from his words so it does not get mixed with God words (Quranic verses).

in the Bible, people got confues Jesus with God, but Jesus has spoke with words from God, and also has spoke words from himself. so they mix God words with Jesus words, and they thought it's the same thing, while it's not. God words should be seperated, and Jesus words should be seperated, and people words should be seperated. that's where the confusion came from by saying trinity is god.
