fellow christians...if god is responsible for intelligent design (with every detailed just fits together), why isnt he clever enough to tweak human's mind to believe in him? why isnt he clever enough to remove the rational locigal part of the brain so that we believe everything from the "holy novel"? ha! i'm a christian but i never try to disturb others religions, because its a sin! u see how i never type anything in capital letters..god god god him him him bible bible bible... see...

Death occurs when the subtle consciousness finally leaves the body to go the next life. Our body is like a guesthouse and our mind is the guest., when we die our mind has to leave this body and enter the body of our next rebirth, like a guest leaving one guesthouse and traveling to another. Any comments?

IN the bible we learn angels had free will, and they knew god existed because they were around him, So why cant he show all of humanity, if knowing god doesnt take away your free will ?

I have so many questions about god and in regards to good and evil. My first question is do you believe that god created evil or do you believe that satan did my next question is does anyone believe that maybe god could be evil himself and of course due to the many changes in the bible of many religions I am going to have to ask as a black man would any one be willing to entertain the idea that god is racist I have found documents that suggest so thoughts?

I'm a virgin because of my faith, but recently I got hooked a little on porn and it's making me feel like the biggest contradiction to the walk of god in the history of man. I use to preach to my friends, pray/read my word hours a night, and now i'm strayed. If I fully repent/turn my ways, will god ever reach me the way he use to and is ministry still an option.

Go define the words with capitals. King James was a murderous, slave-trading, homosexual and you like HIS VERSION of God's words?

I'm trying to understand why God would cast Satan down to earth and then create mankind to inhabit earth, putting his precious new creations in the presence of a being that has tried to undermine His authority? Did Satan arrive after mankind, or before? For what purpose did God have to allow mankind and Satan to co-habitate? Was He testing us?

The Bible tells us that hell is deep inside the earth, but science has proven different, how does that add up to christians ?

From science we know that the center of the earth is a super heated solid of primarily nickel/crystalized, but christians believe that hell is deep down in the earth, even powerful christian leaders who have had "visions" of hell say its a huge area open and cave like, in the center of the earth,
Science is stating this isnt possible, please explain how christians still make account for this

I don't really understand why Atheists are so obsessed with trying to prove Christians wrong.

Does it make you feel proud to make them admit they are wrong?

The thing is, Christians are so deeply convinced in their belief through their faith that nothing you say will convert them.

You can prove to them that the whole Bible is full of crap and that all their prayers are just imaginary and Popes and Fathers are all business men and etc.

Those Christians' shell are hard as diamond.
You simply can't crack through them!

Let them believe in what they want to.

Christians are no harm to our society like in the dark ages anymore so let them live their lives.

Like Christians like to say "If you are wrong you burn in hell, if I am wrong then what?"

Well Christians, if you are wrong then you just wasted one precious life mummbling senseless prayers every god damned day while I was enjoying one and only life.

Lets see in the end whose right.

I guarantee you lose!!

Their descriptions in the Bible and Q'uoran seems that they cannot even lift from the ground, especially the cherubs.

This is a serious question and not intended to malign any religious belief.

Don't send me biblical passages..that's not you thinking, it's something that was written by ? Don't quote passages to cover up what you can't explain.. in your own thoughts and words .. explain it.

It says and this is not a quote..close enough though.. God created the Heavens and the earth..So, where did God come from? Was it like a big bang thing.. kaboom ..there was God?
What was the point of creating the Heavens and the earth? Why, if he's so almighty, why didn't he make something else.

Don't tell me to just believe, tell me why I should believe.

You say we atheists have very little scientific proof, but we seem to have more than you do.

You believe in an entity doing the creating and making humans out of dirt/clay and a rib.
We believe in evolution.

If the story was told to a person who had never heard either side, evolution or creation, which one sounds more realistic?

So, go for it, pretend I'm that person.

It seems to me that the majority of Christians are unable to accept that we are primates, descended from apes over millions of years. Do all Christians believe that Adam and Eve were 'real' people, and that the biblical fable about Noah and his Ark is a 'true story'? That the earth, perhaps even the universe was created only 6000 years ago?

I think the whole concept of Original Sin, being born into sin, is meaningless. What about the tens of thousands of other people who were crucified, how comes none of them died for our sins? Jesus died because politically he was a troublemaker.

I do not believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, and I believe he did not come back from the dead. If I am wrong, prove it. Becoming a Christian may help gullible drug addicts, alcoholics and criminals clean up their acts, but its just harmful to teach this stuff to children. It just creates an unneeded division in society over 'religion'.

The historical Jesus was probably a charismatic teacher and faith healer, one of many at that time period. But the whole New Testament is nothing more than religious fiction, religious poetry.

And that book of Revelation was written by a nutcase, and is clearly about ancient Rome, the beast being Nero.
