Religion & Spirituality - 30 June 2007

I have a mental illness that has improved a bit. But I find it hard to stop picking marks over my body. It looks like I have been taking drugs and injecting them, which I have not. I have scars all over my body because of self inflicted. Is that a sin? If it is I want to know where in the bible does it say that.

There are so many athiests, both here on Yahoo and in the world as well. Lets say we are having a conversation with non-believers, what points would you make, to try to prove that God exists? ( I know it's impossible to "prove" it to a non-believer, but for the sake of what points we could make, how would we try )
What could you say about creation?
What would we say about our own existance?
What could we say in answer to people who say that the world is so messed up and full of pain, so how could there be a God?

I'm sure I'll get alot of answers from non-believers, but basically I would like positive feedback, on how to counter a negative response to questions about God., (I'm not intending disrespect.)
Thanks

None of us are perfect.I will tell you what sins I have given up and this was before I became a christian and when I did I have never gone back to them and never will. The bible says that it would be like a dog going back to its own vomit. I have given up drinking and getting drunk, I do not drink anymore, I have given up going to pubs and clubs, I have given up my fraud, I have given up dilibreatly bounceing checks, I have given up shoplifting, I have given up drugs, being phsically abusive to people when they were rude to me, I have learnt to forgive. I have lernt the importance of thithing. But I still sometimes swear which I take to God when I do. I still battle putting marks all over my body as I have a mental illness which I am on antidepresants for, and I have to stop Judging people. I know God is working on me with these things. So Christians what sins do you do, and do you take it to God after, and do you turn from the sins?

Wouldn't it make sense to stop with the preaching, already?

Take a look at the simple banana (and most fruit for that matter). It comes in the perfect package. It tells you that the inside product is not ready to eat yet (green) then it goes yellow so you know it's ready to eat. Finally it doesn't need a used by date as it starts to go black so you know it's time to throw it out. And the package is totally biodegradable.
You can't tell me that a designer (creator) is not behind such an amazing product.

America would be impoverished too if they were following christian laws just like the islamic countries because essentially the laws advised in the two religions are the same! America has flourished because it is a democracy!
