both god and santa claus are believed in at some age

they both do things that are impossible
1)god can make a virgin give birth without getting knocked up first
2)santa can make reindeer float in the air
3)god can listen to several people at the same time when they pray
4)santa can go to billions of houses in one night

they are both popular to some extent
and both have beards
and neither can be proven to exist

so how can you say god exists and not santa? we cant prove either exist right so why is it wrong to believe in santa?

Any buildings? What age will we be? Will we have things to do or will we just sing all the time? Will aborted babies be there? Will there be sex? Will we eat? sleep? Tell me what you think...please.

The term ‘Protestant’ signifies the amorphous mass of non-Roman Catholic heresies formed since the 16th century in the West in contradiction or retaliation to the Roman Catholic Church.
Whereas the one dogma that binds all Roman Catholics past and present together is submission to the Pope as sole authority (thereby abolishing every other authority), the one dogma that all Protestants have in common is the rejection of the need for submission to any rule for salvation, other than one’s own private opinion (about everything).
Undoubtably, within Protestantism there are many opinions and contrary beliefs, but they all base their religion ultimately in a rejection of external authority as needed for salvation. What Rome began with rejection of all authority save that of the Pope, Protestantism finished by rejecting the authority of the Pope as well.

I personally, am Protestant. And in the Protestant faith, can Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, and Catholics go to heaven? I believe that they do, considering it is through Christ we are saved, and all of these religious groups believe this as we (protestant christians) do.

I am actually being serious about this. for those of you who are believers, did you ever use your critical thinking skills and then go like "okay it makes sense" and you just wanna take a chance on something, you know to believe something without proof? or did you just blindly accept everything at face value?

Im asking cause some people just believe everything without a doubt, but some really think about it and accept it and anything that science says about otherwise just look at it as a miracle from god. so yeah, did you ever really think about it, or just believe everything without asking?

They say that they are all about science, but there's no scientific proof that God does not exist!

They should just be honest and say they just don't know. At least they wouldn't lie about their beliefs being science-based.

All honest Atheists should admit to being Agnostic.

And we still haven't let go...don't you think it's time we move on from princess Diana?

Everyday I hear something about her..."The Murder of Diana" and other programs like that...isn't it just time we accept she's dead? The boys have moved on, although they still love her, I'm sure they don't make every day of their life all about their mother...so why should we?

ok so I understand there are the 10 commandments and breaking one of them is considered a sin. Yet some people define drinking, fighting, cusing, gambling, sex, etc as sins. Where are these other sins defined. Also, how do I know if something I am going to do is sinful?
