For everyone that beleives in God please tell me why you do. Please answer these questions.

1. What makes you beleive that God exists?

2. What makes you beleive in Heaven or Hell?

3. What makes you so sure of all this?

And please, PLEASE do not bring up the Bible in any of your responses. The Bible is nearly a book with thousands of excuses to recite when someone askes you why you beleive.
Atheists have to say why they dont beleive in God by themselves. They have to think. They cant refer to a book with all the answers. I just ask that everyone has the same oppertunity to answer intelligently.

If we are all born with original sin, God must have somehow known that evil might have a slight chance to return, I guess.

Or is it something else that I didn't list?

I've been getting conflicting claims as to the nature of "Hell", so I'd like to know what more people have to say about it.

How do you know the Flying Spaghetti Monster doesn't exist?

Have you read the Gospel?

Give me something (that can be proven!!!)
Prove that the Flying Spaghetti Monster doesn't exist.

If you can't then you must accept him as the truth.

My spouse is acting crazy, saying things like his child is not his child (she's in elementary school) and that he wants nothing to do with her, yeterday saying that she was a "ding dong" and blaming this behaviour on his "upbringing" saying he didn't see it as abuse and then turning it around today. Now he is talking about divorce and we won't have a house to live in and saying that I brought all this up. He blames me for everything he can. He has admitted that or lied to me that (not sure which) he verbally abuses his boss at the risk of getting fired. I have never seen him abuse others. He has also told me that he wishes he had a child like some other woman's because this child is calm(er). My child by him is normal or above average. He glanced at the pc before leaving for work and wrote something down, I don't know what. I wrote a note for him to chose us and help or someone else and does it make him feel like a man to call his child this and act that way. This is how he is treating

Mt 7:14-20 " whereas narrow is the gate and cramped the road leading off into life,and few are the ones finding it. Be on the watch for the false prophets that come to you in sheeps covering but inside they are ravenous wolves. By their fruits you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they? Likewise every good tree produces fine fruit, but every rotten tree produces worthless fruit. a good tree cannot bear worthless fruit, neither can a rotten tree produce fine fruit. Every tee not producing fine fruit gets cut down and thrown into the fire. Really, then, by their fruits you will recognize those [men]

Seven days ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: on the eighth day shall be an holy convocation unto you; and ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD: it is a solemn assembly; and ye shall do no servile work therein.
Numbers 29:35: On the eighth day ye shall have a solemn assembly: ye shall do no servile work therein:

Or should we all just stick to what we preach - to love each other - or is it really that hard to just accept our differences?

(A few anecdotal examples of mutations do not explain the missing transitional forms in millions of generations of thousands of creatures.)

Please, If you have nothing better to do but leave silly, non-sense, unintelligent, and rude comments , please skip this question! Thanks!

I ran across this list of things regarding Islamic prayer. Is this true?

MUHAMMAD: taught formalized prayer ritual: (quotes are from Bukhari, Vol. 1)



488 - passing in front of a praying person annuls his prayer

489 - it's a sin to pass in front of someone while they're praying

660 - don't raise from prayer before the Imam {Muslim cleric leading the formal, ritualized prayers), or God will turn your face into a donkey's face

685 - if the prayer rows (of men) aren't straight, God will alter your faces

690 - if the prayer rows aren't straight, the prayer is not good

717 - if you look up during prayer, you'll lose your eyesight

759 - if you don't perform the bowing perfectly, your prayers are not accepted

User "Preacher" just posted this:

"The devil doesn't believe in hell either."

I was wondering if anyone agrees or disagrees.

Of course, there is no Hell so the question is moot but I'm curious what the Christians think.

The crusades were carried out in the name of God. So was the Spanish Inquisition. 9-11 was also done in the name of God (or Allah, the Arabic word for God). Look at the current sectarian violence between two sects of Islam (Sunni and Shia) in Iraq. Hitler got the backing of the Catholic and the Lutheran churches in Germany. And when American and British soldiers fought German soldiers in Europe during WW1 and WW2, priests and pastors blessed troops on both sides before battles. And people wonder why so many have become disillusioned and disappointed by religion.
