Answer 1

Well, honestly this answer will probably seem rude even though it's not intended to be.

However, I imagine quite a few people don't believe in God (and your insistence that believing in God means believing in YOUR God answers why quite a few people don't since quite a few people believe in the existence of Gods other than yours) because thus far in my review of religion, every God I've come across has displayed the exact shortcomings of knowledge and character of the people he was supposed to have created.

In short, there seems to be very little divine about Him (or Her, or It, depending on how you look at God), which makes it very likely all the Gods up to this point aren't the truth of the divine, but creations of the will of men at the time... and frankly, God usually turns out to be both mean-spirited and very incompetent at His job of being perfect.

If you would like an example of that, Biblically speaking, you can sum up the Bible pretty succinctly in the following manner:

In the beginning God started out being perfect and created the Heavens and the Earth, and He's perfect you know and all powerful too. Then He created life because He's perfect and all powerful and He can do stuff like that, and He created human beings because He's perfect and all powerful, but He completely futzed the job up because everything we want to do is completely wrong and we want to do nothing but sin and do the wrong stuff so he obviously didn't make us right, but He's perfect and all powerful, you know.

By the way about a third of His workers decided to revolt and go with the whole "evil theory", and God didn't see it coming, but He won the war against those naughty angels because He's perfect and all powerful... we mentioned that He's perfect and all powerful didn't we... Oh, and He's all knowing, too. You can't forget that He knows everything, so right after He created this world that went horribly wrong, and had to fight off a third of His workers because they all went evil-- including His best friend Lucifer, who tried to kill Him because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing-- God decided to start killing off people for doing wicked things, but He didn't do it himself because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing. So, he picked these people He really liked and started telling them exactly what to do and they were the only people around, because they were the only people He created, because He's the only God around and He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing.

So, they were the only people around except for all the others who seemed to be inhabiting the Earth at the time, who weren't part of God's vision, but that was okay because He was going to make his perfect people kill all of them off because they weren't the type of people God liked, and He can do that because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing.

So, God sent his special, faithful people to start killing off everyone else, and then decided that was a botch job and just flooded the whole world and killed everyone and moved on with life and then settled His people back down, and they were the only people around-- except for all those other people who could breathe underwater and survived even though they don't believe in God. So, that turned out to be a botch job, and God went back to the idea of killing everyone he didn't like, because He's perfect and all knowing and all powerful, so He started sending His people out to fight and they met the Egyptians.

That turned out to be a bit of an off day, because the Egyptians kicked the Hebrew's butts up one side the Nile and down the other, and promptly took them prisoner for a few hundred years, but God got them out of it because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing. We're not sure why He didn't just sort of vaporize all the Egyptians, since He can do that because He's perfect and all knowing and all powerful, or at least give Moses an argument which would have convinced the Pharaoh of God's wisdom, but there you have it. So, there was a big fight and a lot of plagues followed, and many children were summarily executed by God, who's allowed to do that because He's all knowing and all powerful and totally wise. Oh, and he's very forgiving. Did we mention how forgiving he is?

Anyway, the Hebrews got out of Egypt, and God decided He had to give everyone an instruction manual and explain to them just what He wanted from them. So, He did... but it turned out to be a bit of a botched job because everyone decided they'd much rather "ooh" and "aah" at this really sparkly cow they had built, but God didn't give up because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing.

Back to the top of Mt. Sanai with Moses, and God tried again, and this time the instruction manual stuck, and so did all the other stuff God told people to do... but it turned out to be a bit of a botched job (again), so God sent this guy down to explain it all directly and tell everyone what the new instruction manual was and make sure they were all following it and getting along.

However, that didn't turn out so well because people got fed up with the guy and beat him like a little *****, and then nailed him to a tree and got back to killing each other and doing whatever the Hell they felt like, which is really too bad, because they should have listened to God because He's perfect and all powerful and all knowing.

Sarcastic? Yes.

However, it's also an accurate summation of the course of events laid out in the Bible. The book is forever pointing out just how little God seems to know and how often he seems to screw up, and then turning around and saying "oh, but He's perfect, you know", and a lot of people just aren't buying the story.

There isn't a religion on Earth, with the possible exception of Buddhism, which can't be boiled down to that.

As long as our Gods are more reflective of our defects as people than they are of a perfection we should aspire to, there are going to continue being people who will not aspire to the divine, instead choosing to scrap the whole idea in favor of finding a simple and reasonable way through the life that's right in front of them and dispose of the rest, because it's the only thing left to them which makes any sense.

I may not be an atheist, but I can't blame them in the least for that. Maybe if those spiritually minded were a bit more interested in truly exploring the issues and working their way toward a more enlightened state than they seem to be in simply brow-beating everyone around them over the head with whatever stone tablet they feel is closest at hand while, much of the time, simply blowing off the laws they're so zealous about enforcing on others, more people would be able to believe.

Just a thought.

Answer 2

the bible is a book think about it ? every single topic is only about what they knew at the time it was written that proves that it is the teachings of a human not the creator if it was the word of god than there would have been mention of other things like the Chinese people or the dinosaurs but since the person who wrote did not know about those things at the time he could not write about them remember the earths flat

Answer 3

I don't know what others will do, but I pray every night that I am "in that number". Despite the fact that I am human, I refuse to believe that my sins will overcome me because my God is a loving and forgiving God. My God is supreme, and I want to be in the number traveling upward during the rapture.

And to Lief Y, and all others who don't believe, How about you prove he doesn't exist!

Answer 4

Well, when god magically appears out of the blue one day then everyone would believe that it exists. However, since that hasn't ever happened and there isn't a scrap of evidence for it's (god's) existence, other than man made dogma, it's a lot more likely that god is never going to magically appear one day.

Answer 5

because all the stuff people read in the bible came from many men with many opinons on why we are here and what happens next,so they sat down and picked out the best ones and made it religon.mithra was also christ like and was born of a virgin.in 3500 bc.there are lots of tales in ancient text that speak of these things.the gist of it is religon is a form of control to keep people from knowing the real truth.what would this world be like if all of a sudden you found out that it's all a big lie

Answer 6

Looks like you are basing your entire belief in a god on the words in the bible. For me it is very obvious that the bible is merely a work of men, for the purpose of controling other men. It is not divinely inspired, it is not the word of any god.....it is the words of men, nothing more. So you ask what will I do when he comes back.....well many have waited for that day for 1,700 plus years and you'll continue to wait because you are trying to take the words of a story book and apply them to reality....good luck.

Answer 7

"How come people think that there's no god?"

Well, because there's no proof. No evidence that there's a god.

And before you say "everything around you - the smile of a child, and rainbows, and love, and the sky - that's proof of god, that's evidence" - um, no, it's not.

If that's along the lines of what you think, then please look up "empirical evidence" and "scientific method" before you claim evidence for god.

Nothing you just wrote is anything I haven't heard before, and it proves absolutely nothing.

Answer 8

Those who reject Jesus will go through the Tribulation. I think that most people don't fully understand what a horrible time it will be in the History of Mankind.

Answer 9

If there is a god why do religious people have trouble showing me evidence that he exists? I want direct evidence and not the bible or another source of indirect evidence.

Answer 10

i agree some people dont beleive there is a God but they have that right to do so. People dont have a choice if they dont believe theres a God they wont be in the rapture

Answer 11

before the bible, god was a woman and there was never any need for her to come back and take specific people because she never left. why did this change?
