It seems to me that if we are all children of G-d and Jesus came as a the Son of G-d then I should be able to perform all of his miracles...

Here are some men and women
who mocked God :
> John Lennon (Singer):
Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:
"Christianity will end, it will disappear.
I do not have to argue about
that. I am certain.
Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, Today we are more famous than Him" (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

>Tancredo Neves (President of Brazil ):
During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency.
Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.

> *Cazuza (Bi-sexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet):
During A show in Canecio (Rio de Janeiro ),
while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said: "God, that's for you."
He died at the age of 32 of AIDS in

Calcutta's archbishop Lucas Sirkar announced yesterday that he anticipated that Mother Teresa 'would soon be pronounced a saint'.

However, recently released personal letters indicate that at her death she had formed serious doubts about her catholic faith, bordering on atheism.

Should her canonisation be completed even if it turns out that she died an atheist?

Their entire life is about scientific reasoning. Believing in God is not scientific but by faith. I do believe in God, but I wonder how many scientist have "reasoned away" a relationship with God.

So if time doesn't exist wouldn't every that's suppose to happened will happen all at once at the same time? Do you agree with this theory?

Does this mean our actions and deeds are independent of use being saved? If we accept Jesus as our saviour is it sufficient for us to be saved? Isn't faith of any value without action/work?

...after Thomas had already called Jesus "my God" in verse 28? Is this a contradiction? Who is Jesus? God or God's Son?

The word bible itself comes from the latin word biblios which means collection of books. When king James found the books he merely compiled them and had those who spoke the language translate in to the version we have now. Whats wrong with the king james version.

if i'm not mistaken, even the catholic church has come to grips with the fact of evolution and, as they have so skillfully done throughout history, now exploits it to promote the awesome creative powers of their god. the church is nothing if not practical and has had to swallow all sorts of distasteful notions served up by those brave souls willing to investigate not only the natural world itself, but their faith as well.
as the late great johnny cochran once said, "if it don't fit, you must acquit!" and no matter how hard you try, religion does not fit with reality...but evolution most certainly does.

"Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.... (despicable person: somebody viewed with contempt or disapproval)

I once was lost , (unsure of where you are and where you are going)
BUT NOW I AM FOUND!
Was blind, (unable to recognize: unwilling or unable to understand something
)
BUT NOW I SEE!



T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.
Is this you?

or saying the wrong words (Leviticus 24:17) or because they're homosexual (Leviticus 20:13), and millions believe these are the words of God, so is it possible that religions inherently breed violence, or is it just some religions, or do they only do so if people really take their religions seriously? Most people would condemn a person who said these things, so why do they worship gods who say them?

Growing up I have heard people talking about worshiping the devil and some people actually claiming to worship the devil however i have never come across anything about it.The closest thing i found was Satainism which seems to be more about self worship than anything else. Is "worshiping the devil" accually a religon that people follow?

I want REAL, LOGICAL arguments. Save your sarcastic comments for other questions. I've heard them all, good and bad arguments for atheism. I just want to hear some real arguments outside from the routine song-and-dance of ignorant, sarcastic comments boosed by the atheist comraderie on here. by the way, I am currently christian, but so far, I see no real reason to convert. Please try. I will not be biased, I will judge which argument makes the most sense and give him/her best answer.
