Religion & Spirituality - 25 September 2007

I(a person sick of religions but beleiving in god) was on the train the other day with my cousin(who happens to be a devoted christian), an old muslim gentleman entered the train, I let go off my seat to let him sit, my cousin came to me and said "you know god will must be hating you because you did good to an enemey of god" !!!!!!!!!
do I only feel religions are the prime source of hate and evil in the world or is it always just a coincidence ???

If atheism is simply a lack of belief in God, then atheism does not address the actual existence of God...meaning atheism allows for the possibility of God's existence.

If you really are an atheist (one who merely lacks belief in God) then you should be able to admit to the possibility of a God.

Otherwise, you are not an atheist; you are an anti-theist.

So how many of you self-identified atheists will make this honest confession?: "According to atheism it is possible for a God to exist."

Anyone?

Yes, I know atheism also allows for the possibility of blue fairies, et all. Nonetheless atheism allows for the possibility of a supernatural God. So an objective, honest atheist should have no problem admitting it.

Isn't this the ultimate honesty test for atheists?

Because in my experience, most atheists are actually anti-theists, who hide behind a feint of make-believe non-belief, and who base their entire belief system of the impossibility of God's existence.

That the atheists that hang around in the Religion and Spirituality area are just seeking attention?

Dont answer their questions, because they are not going to "believe" they just want to see you all defend what you believe.

I have faith, and no...I am not sorry that I didn't decide to just think that this wolrd all happened by chance.

I have more brains then that.

Leave them alone. if they get no anwers...hopefully they will go away.

Atheists, no doubt, you are good people...but sitting here all day and calling us idiots for having faith in something that you cant understand...doesn't make us wrong.

If people are going to act that way, they need to strap on their little girl/boy pants and go back to the highschool world, where they belong.

what limited, bigoted definition of Christianity are you using?

2007-09-25 02:58:03 · 20 answers · asked by Anonymous

Many believers say that all bad things that happen to them are tests from God : everything from stubbing a toe to accidentally dropping a wedding band down a drain to a debiliating illness.

If God loves you back so much, why would he allow these things to happen? This sounds much more like he would be toying with someone rather than protecting them.

Dear God:
I know that I'm a sinner. I deserve Hell. But You sent Jesus to die for my sins. I believe that He died and rose again. I ask you now to forgive my sins, once an for all. I now receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Personal Saviour. Please come into my heart and save me, Help me to know I am saved and live for You, the rest of my life. In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen.

A woman that killed her four children said that they would be better off in Heaven. Do you believe that those children have a free pass to heaven due to their mother's actions?

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20963071/

If you believe that getting into heaven is the ultimate goal and the best thing you can help your loved ones to achieve, do the ends justify the means? Is this something that brings you comfort, or is it something that repulses you?

If you havent read Acts 2:38 And Peter Said unto them repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins and ye shall receive the gift of the holy ghost. And Acts 10: 44While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.

45And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.

46For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,

47Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?

48And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
