Be honest.

Is it because of what you believe god has done for you... given you life, created the universe, kept the sun shining and the earth spinning?

Is it because of what you believe god will give you when you die?

Is it because you fear what would happen if you didn't respect god?

Is it because god is just so great and "godly?"

I'm genuinely curious. The reason is ask because I find myself incapable of respecting something simply through faith, which is all anyone has as evidence for gods works.

In fact, I find it contemptible that any being would try to garner respect through what can only be described as coercive methods.

I guess that's why even if such a being actually appeared to prove its existence, I would still reject it.

Koran 4:92 "it is unlawfull for a believer to kill another believer, accidents excepted. He that accidently kills a believer must free one muslim slave and pay blood-money to the family of the victim, unless they choose to give it away in alms. If the victim be a muslim from a hostile tribe, the penalty is the freeing of one muslim slave" it goes on to say that if they can't do this then they must fast for two consecutive months.

Deep in a forest of beautiful green a wondering angel is yet to be seen.
The life of a creature,but of body and mind.
The eyes of many golden streams,and heart that is kind.
To wonderers the angel is fierce.
To me she is a dream.
A dream so real,a dream so true,the sweetest thing I ever knew.
But yet many don't believe,that the angel in her is the angel in me.

Personally, i think its alot like before you were born when you die.... pretty much like it doesnt exist. but what are your beliefs, and i would especially like to hear from the people who have no set form of religion and just kind of believe in what they think is right.

Right now I am an agnostic. I love childern and animals. I am an avid reader and strongly believe in peace. Those who believe in God of whatever religious strip seem to really get off on global domination and thought control. They clearly love wars and the acquisition of earthly domains and resourses no matter the cost. The also seem to enjoy deception as the main means of conveying false information to their flocks. If I become a God fearing man, how long do I have before my thought processes get screwed up in such a manner that honesty and integrity and love will no longer matter and I can join the global god culture and wallow in greed and self importance?

Shouldnt it be 1 true version? the diffrent versions lead me to believe that the bible is downright fake and has nothing true about it. Next time some wants to do something like murder someone(for example) they will just change the bible a little more. So, it seems, Jesus is the wrong way

what do you think would happen to you if God just removed one organ from your body you can choose anyone from this list: brain, heart, blood, liver, stomach, .... what will happen to you ?
so how do you think evolution worked ? billions of years there were creatures without one of this organs and were acctualy alive waiting for them to form? I just know one thing : in Holly Books God referes to some people as lower than animals ( i guess in using their intelect etc) where do you stand?

I read that Genesis was written around 1400 B.C. and Revelations was written around 90 A.D. Is there any solid proof that those dates are accurate?

so how can you explain what Jesus said?

"And a ruler asked him (Jesus), 'Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?/ And Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone.'" (Luke 18:18-19)

My husband is having his second interview with a company in Des Moines, IA. I'm not sure about IA, because I'm sure it's much more conservative that Chicago. But I've got a lot of questions about area, stuff to do, acceptance and real estate if anyone knows.

if you don't believe in the 10 commandments does that mean that I can come into your home and steal all your stuff, murder you and then lie to the police about it?

Painting, poems, sculptures, symphonies, literature... it's clear that the sunset and random flight of the butterfly are proof of gods existence. It is through these beautiful creations that he speaks the universal language of metaphore, understood by all who those who create in his honor.

Meanwhile, all he leaves for scientists are conundrums... fossils and DNA that contradict his written words, laws of physics that don't jive with observed reality, phenomenon like earthquakes and hurricanes that depict a chaotic, rather than designed planet, and, as the ultimate test of faith, no hard evidence of his existence, which lets face it, is starting to feel a little... insulting.... after a two millennia of waiting?

The canned response is, "god reveals himself to those who wish to see him." Well, doesn't that sound just a bit like an overgrown child who hasn't been given his cookie for dessert?

A person who committed crimes, do bad things... etc. But go to church to confess.

Or

A person never goes to church, might or might not believe in god, but never do anything bad in his life.
