Go for it. I want proof if you got it. I 'll even respect the odd ones out there.

It seems to me that the Athiest and the religious are trying to convert each other so I'm giving them the floor to see whats on their minds. Why should I believe like you?

I'm not asking you to force me to believe in what you believe, only for what proof or ideas that make you believe in what you do?

Why?

Who says that you would believe the proof I give. Not even trying it. See faith is the evidence of things unseen. I has to believe that there is something more. If you choose not to believe then no amount of proof will make you believe. So I won't even try that.

What I will say is this. Watch me, judge me, watch my actions, there is where the answer lies. Would you be more willing to believe if faith if you see people who claim it actually live it? See it is not about the talk, talk comes cheap and rarely is it ever back up with real action. But if I don't say a word but I live my faith, put actions to my faith then there is something tangible to it.

Which is more real? Which has more proof to it?

You could see the sea part and come up with an explanation, where is the proof in that? But if one is true to their beliefs then you see what is behind what they say.

It is about the walk, the relationship. Actions speak louder than words. Don't judge the faith based on what I say but what you see me do.

I do believe that Jesus is the Christ, the risen Son of God, the only way I can prove it is by my walk.

I can't do that, being a person who has very eclectic beliefs. I couldn't convince anyone to believe anything. I feel to really get any benefit from spirtuality, you have to truely believe. To believe in whatever it is you believe in. I know I went thru a long period were I became agnostic(not believing in anything) because what I felt inside, didn't "match" what I was taught. Until I discovered Paganism, and the openess it had, allowing me to have an eclectic faith. That day was the best day of my life. I felt more connected spiritualy then I ever had. The only "proof" I have is that I suffered from depression, deep depression for a majority of my adult life. Until that day, until the day I became free to believe what I believed. To practice and pray the way I beleived to be right. Life without Light, is nothing but dark. Good luck on your Journey.

I love God and i believe because all the truth is in the Bible, plus if u look in the Book of Revelation there are all ready somethings that already happened before the end of the world comes to an end. But that's not wat i only believe.I know and feel that he is their in Heaven looking down at us. Plus when my mom was little, she was laying down on the ground looking up in the sky and she felt that there was something up there (by the way, she was born deaf). So one day she went to church and she found out that it was God, that is wat she felt. also, do u think people just appear? i don't. do u think science made us? if it did, won't some people still be made today out of nowhere from science. Now how do u explain how miracles happen? like i saw on telavision, this little girl got hit by a car and all kinds of people rushed out to help her, they put her on the ground and formed a circle around the little girl, held hands and pray. this women looked at the little girl and saw the little girls dint in her head went back to normal and the little girl woke up because it wasn't time for the little girl to go. Do u think that came from science? i think not. Or this one time there was this women with a bad heart and she was fixing to die, then when some church people came by they started praying together. then she felt something strange had happened, she told the doc.'s that felt better then before, so the doc.'s took a look at her heart again and it was like new, before her heart was very bad like a 50% and then now it is a 100%. Now that didn't come from science did it? absolutly not. and there lots of other stories too about miracles happening. how do u explain those? i know, by God. Now wat do u believe? science made us or did God make us? i believe God did. Just look at the Bible, read It. Go to church. and then hopefuly u will see. But sometimes when you pray you don't get everything that you ask for, sometimes God says no. yes, maybe, or we'll see, and there is a reason why God says tht too.

I believe I am going to have a drink. Probably a scotch, although the particular variety of fermented beverage is not important. But it must be fermented.
I think you should also have a fermented beverage. You will probably desist in making such inane statements in the form of questions.
I know very shortly, once I have my drink, I will start ignoring them.
I don't need any proof. This is completely an act of faith.
I think if you look deep in your soul you will find that you agree with me.

Well, Jesus returned from the dead and appeared to over 500 witnesses (according to Paul) to show that he was alive again. I don't know of any other religion whose founder found a way to cheat death. Maybe Jesus knows something that the rest of us don't?

I don't know if this answers your question or not, but one of the main reasons that I believe in Christianity is that the people who knew Jesus were willing to be tortured to death rather than change their story that they saw Jesus return from the dead.

If the apostles were lying about seeing the resurrected Christ, then why didn't they take back their story when they were individually being tortured to death? Every one of the apostles (Except John, who died a natural death in exile on Patmos), were killed for their faith. Wouldn't a liar recant this story to save his own life?

What did the apostles have to gain by making it all up? What good does power, control or fame do for a dead person?

I accept the apostles' story because the witnesses were creditable.

PS: Yes, I have heard the crack about suicide bombers, but the main difference between the modern bombers & the apostles are: (1) the bombers did not see Mommand personally, so they are not eye-witnesses to anything (Unlike Peter, & Paul, who claimed to see Jesus alive with their own eyes and then died rather than take it back); and, (2) the bombers are killing innocent people (others) for their faith, not suffering for it (I assume that blowing yourself up is quick & painless compared with being crucified.).

I could give you a universe of proof, but unless your open minded, you still wouldn't believe in God.

I can't force you to do or believe in dittley- because God gave us all free will.

To chose Jesus, who made the only Way to God, or to not and end up without God forever,

it's your choice, your dessision, your call.

takes a little faith, but evolution takes a heaping plie of blind faith.

So what will it be? Times ticking, Jesus is comming, life is waisting.

Your not garunteed your next breath.

Do you want to be sure about where you end up, or do you want to take a gamble with your soul.

You could be dead wrong.

Proof of the illusory nature of reality: Scientists have discovered, that, while there are areas of greater or lesser energy distribution in the cosmic microwave background, there is no one source. Some of the most brilliant minds in physics have taken this to mean that every point in the universe is the center of the universe. If every point in the universe is the center of the universe, then everything is one. And since time can be interpreted as directly linked to space, that means that every point in time is one as well. That means that while space and time may exist, our perception of them is so far off from the reality that nothing we perceive is actually as we perceive it.

PROOF THAT THE CHRISTIAN GOD EXISTS!

(1) Doesn't it just make more sense that an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-good deity created the world out of nothingness, from magic, essentially, and then punished us for eating a piece of fruit, and then incarnated himself in human flesh and came down to shed his own blood so he could break his own rules, and then went through hell on a temporary basis and then went back into the sky and promised to come back and take everyone who believed in him to this heaven no one has ever seen?
(2) Well, doesn't it?
(3) Therefore, God exists.

I cant. My proof is MY proof, you would need your own. I can tell you mine, Id be happy to, but it is a personal proof. A personal point in MY life, that fit, that became real and evident to me, but everyone is diffrent, not all people will have or see or feel or believe what I do, and I cant force it, it is MINE. You have to find your own way.

you do bad things or good things you get away with them. This world is the devils world. He controls everything on earth that is why there will always be war, no peace, hunger and disease.

God built us perfectly. gave us free will. He isn't a psychic and couldn't tell or interfere with our choices. He cant do bad things or hurt people. God doesn't take people when they die, that would be murder.

people think they know it all. We aren't good enough to go to heaven. The world was made for us, angels were made for heaven. No one will go to heaven, the righteous will live on a cleansed peaceful world.

when we die, we dont go anywhere. No lights at the end of the tunnel, no fire and brimstone. We just die. We sleep until Armageddon. when righteous souls will be woken up to live and the bad to stay asleep and be forgotten. there is no hell for humans, just the devil and his goons.


there is no hope for the world as it is today. we are parasites killing everything including ourselves. If you want the truth, contact me.
