Do you believe in God or why you don't if you believe in evil why can't you believe in God???

Question

Don't get me wrong but how can you look at the sky and not believe in God???How can you wake up every morning and not thank God because you are alive???And How can you say you were Ape likes if you don't even know where you came from???Why you don't believe that theres a devil at the core of the earth???

P.S.
don't answer if you are going to trow rocks at me because the same question you could ask.

Answer 1

I don't believe in 'evil'. I think the two biggest mistakes we make in life are blaming the devil for the act of mankind and praising God for the acts of mankind. We need to put responsibility where it is due.

Answer 2

It's easy, I don't believe in any of that crap. God is a myth created by man to control the masses through fear and intimidation. To believe that things are intrinsically evil or good is equally naive. If you have ever stopped to actually look at how the world works you will see that nothing is "black and white" like that. Even christians believe that there is good (Jesus) in everyone, so pure evil can't exist. As far as there being a devil in the core of the earth; come on, you watch way too many cartoons.

Answer 3

No I don't. I can look in the sky and not believe in the Christian God because I don't see him up there. I can wake up every morning and thank luck, because the right conditions occurred over time to allow humans to exist. I know where I came from, I come from the evolution of the universal ancestor over millions of years. And I don't believe there's a devil at the core of the earth because its absolutely stupid to believe so.

Answer 4

I don't believe in absolute evil, such as a devil &/or Satan. One doesn't need to believe in God to Know that some people do evil things. And just how can you believe that the devil is at the core of the earth? Because there's fire there? You must be young to believe in such things.

But, I wonder how one can say God is absolutely GOOD when even the bible says he created Evil.

Answer 5

because of science. science has proven to us time and again that the ideas and symbols from centuries ago have reasoning. the earth if filled with liquid magma in which the core of the earth is full of this. sure evolution is a theory youre afraid to use, but how can we explain how people have changed from 1850 to the present. our bodies have changed size, height, weight..... cells keep us alive, science keeps us alive with inovations in protecting the body from injury. how can you tell me that this religion is "correct?" thousands have come and gone. Ancient Greece and Rome had multiple gods. Egypt worshiped sun gods, cats and other beings. Native Americans still worship the ideas that the land and nature are spirits. what proof do you have that there is any sort of god. religion is something for people who feel weak and need to rely on something there is no proof of.

Answer 6

HONESTLY, I love the Lord and I believe that he is real and that he sent his son on Earth to save us from sin. I would rather be good and believe in God than find out in the end that I was wrong. Besides Jesus' presence is historical not just noted in the Bible.

Answer 7

I believe in God ( though, maybe, my idea of God differs from yours) but I can't really believe in an entity called the Devil.

Answer 8

That's easy, because there is no God evil does flourishes. Pray for a sick friend, for someone who really needs help, and see if God answers. You will see for yourself he doesn't exist.

Answer 9

:D Let me point out something...

You say God is benevolent.
You say God is all powerful.
You say God created everything.

There is Satan. Therefore, God created Satan. But that would mean God's not benevolent, and he hasn't destroyed Satan... so, then?

Answer 10

I believe in God, but it has nothing to do with me looking at the sky. I don't think anyone, even agnotiscic or atheist can deny that "out world came into exsistence through something other than man" Obviously a higher power is responsible for many things. I believe in God, i suppose b/c i the beginning (as a child, that is waht I was taught to believe) That in my opinion is my the majority of the people in this world are the religion that they are, whether it be Christian, Jewish, buddist. We are creatures of learned, practiced, followed and habit behaviour.Exluding of course those who were brought up in home with little if any or none Religious teachings, practices, cremonies, rituals, etc.

That is not to say that we all reamin the same denomimation of faith throughout our entire lives. Many children grow up in a Baptist home for example and one they have been given an opportunity to view other religions from an objective perspective they may choose to convert to Cathlolism or any other religion. It is common knowledge that for the sake of marriage, one of the parties to the unison often converts to the religion of their spouse.While not require to change ofe example form Mehodist to Baptist, it is extremely necessay in more formal ritualsitic faiths, that have a completely different views on one of if not the most contreversial and also most widley know premise IE: christianity The Christian faith (in a but shell( believe that the only way to heven is by acknowledging and accepting Jesus Christ, son of God (and in many Christian faiths, not only the son of God, but the Jesus is actually God in human form Jesus is God incarnate. You must beleive that God sent his only son , Jesus (who ws born to the Virgin Mary & her husband Joseph) from heaven to earth and that God allwed for his son to be crucified on the on the coss and bear all of our sins. Only through this cleansing of his blood, the blood ofChrist have we been forgiven for our human & our earthly sins, so that we may once again be worthy of redemption and of od's rewards. Our reward, that we have everlasting life with God in his Kingdom. We never really die, our mortal bodies sre reuned to Ashes from what we were made. Then when jesus comes again (the second coming) the dead shall rise first and the remainder of us shall have the opportunity to lie through waht the book of Revelations promises to be be bea very bad tiem before it becoems good. This is the timeof false prophets the anti-Christ, one world religion. Thosw who do not know the bible will be fooled by the charasmatic leader wo at first will appear to the the answer to all the terrible suffering the world has been exposed to..

This is an area tha Christians differer among themselves more than any other issue or area. Will there be a rapture ? Will it be as touched upon in the bible, that he will come "like a thief in the nightz' will all of a sudden people to your right, your left just dissapear into thin air, causing major traffic jams, airplane rashes as pilot are ratured and many others "LEFT BEHIND: The christians differ on whether they beleive the "rapture" will occur "pre-tribulaion" this is before the great tribulation, battle of armaeddon, reign of Satan etc, thius sparing those who have faithfully follwed Jesus Christ and obeyed him, spare them from the tribulation. Others beleive theat such peopel will be spared but not until "MID TRIBULATION, half way through and when the anti-christ is exposed for who he really is, thus sparing them from the fianl part "the worst part ever" and finally some christian faiths beleive that all will remain throuhout the entire trubulaton and only in the end when Jesus defeats Satan ant the end of the 1000 year reign, will we all the go to heavn (those who made it through as loyal and did not accept the mark of the beast.

I don't know anymore what my opinion is on the above, of ocurse if givena choice I suppose I refer pre trib rapture and avoiding all other. However what a glorious day to e standing next to God, or Jesus when Satan is finally thrown back into the fire pitt of hell to burn for eternal damnation.

NOW HAVING SAID ALL THAT, & LET ME PREFECE THSI WITH I AM A CHRSTIAN, I AM OF THE EPISCOPAL FAITH ANDYES I DO BELIEVE IN GOD

As I get older am starting to have doubts, actually Not doubts as much as questions. This has nothing to do with the Da vince code epidimac etc.

y biggest Qestion, is that accoeding to Christians the only way to have ib through accpeting Jesus Christ as your perosnal savior and knowing that he died on the Cross for oyu, absebt that you cannot GET TO HEAVEN

I HAVE A HARD TIME WIRTH THISM B.C MY GOD IS A GOOD KIND GOD, Juesus himself was a Jew and e is in heaven. The jewish faith , they do not believe that Jesus is/was the mesiaoah. they do belive in hhim, he was a grea person, vut the messiah has no yet come. the torah, their readins which i what we christians call the "old testament" How ca God turn away the jews from heave, the bible "OUR CHRISTIAN BIIBLE TELLS IS THAY THEY ARE THE CHOSEN ONES. SO MY DIEMLA IS BELIEVING THAT GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HELL B/C THEY DO NOT BELIEVE EXACTLY LIKE THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST OR METHOSIDST ETC, HELL, THE BAPTIST NOW BELEIVE THE CATHOLICS CANBOT GO TPO HEAVEN B/C THEY PRAY TO THE VIRGIN MARY.

THE Bible waas written so long ago, ad translated through different languages. the translation from greelk to hebreew i mena greek to english should be enough to casue alarm (that;s all just ocncern & alarm) to any reasoble, educated perosn . the greek language had no "vowels: a e, i, o, u. so ho wdo we knwo that every word waas translated properly, 100% accuraletly, we mY NOT HAVE HAD A WORD THAT FIT THE WORD BEING TRANSLATED SO WOMEONE JUST PICKED ANOTHER WORD THAT "BEST RESEMBLED" IT

LOOK AT OWRDS TODAY THAT EVEN TO US CAN TAKE ON MORE THAN ONEMEANING ATE, EIGHT, BEET, BEAT, WEEK, WEAK, WRITE, RIGHT
HOW DO YOU ACCURATELY TRANSLATE THIS

I JUST AM HAVIN A HARD TIME BELIEVING IN ANY FAITH THAT SAYS GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPEL WILL NOT GO TO HEAVEN, ANY CHRISTIAN WHO BELIEVES THAT MUST ALSO BELIEVE THEN THAT GOD LIED TO ABRAHAM ON THE MONTAIN, WHN HE TOLD HIM TO BRIN THE SON HE HAD SARAH HAD, HAD WIATED SO MANY YEARS TO CONV=CEIVE, BRIN ISAAC TOT HE MOINTAIN. THEN GOD TOLD ABRAHAM TO SACRAFICE HS SOM & WHEN GOD SAW HIS LOYALTY HE STOPPED THE SACXARIFICE, FOUND A LAMB IN THE THICKENING AND PROMISED ABRBAHAN "TO BE R RULER OF AMNY NATIONS" AN A DIRECT LINK ALWAYS TO GOD.

YES, I BELEIVE IN GOD, I JUST ALSO BELIEVE WE HAVE SUPERIMPSED TOO MANY FACTS
