I will go on that, then I have no soul. I should have no feelings or my feelings should be the exact same as everyone elses.
If there is no God then there is no Good or Evil. If there is no God then there is no Envy or Jealousy. If there is no God then there is no truth or lie.
We can murder, cheat and steal. We can hurt one another and destroy what we want.
If there is no God then, there was not a crucifixion of Jesus Christ. There is no possibility of a reconciliation with God. There is no possibility to understand love. Love would then just be a word and nothing else. Our emotions are made up. The laws we see can be changed because they are made from one man or a group of men. Therefore our laws do not count.
If there is no God then you as well as everyone else is just an animal of the highest and we can be taken out by someone who is better and or stronger than us. If there is no God then you as well as I are constantly evolving into something better. This means by some mistake we were instantly placed here and the earth was formed by some means. The exact temperature, explosions, evolutionary scales, chemical explosions, and physics would have to all come together at that proper time and all of a sudden bang it is instantly made. If that happened we should not only be able to recreate man, but also earth.
Do you realize that for the most part we as humans are not to live past 120 years old? Why is it a corpse decomposes and essentially turns into dust? Why does our skin that we shed turn to dust too?

God is good, yes, but he is also JUST, He's fair. He won't accept those who haven't accepted Him.
"Far be it from you to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. Far be it from you! Will not the Judge of all the earth do right?"" Genesis 18:25.
""The LORD, the LORD, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished;" Exodus 34:7
I know my whole life isn't a lie, I have an assurance in my heart and in my mind, I have studied not only the word of God, but history and works that show the truth of the Bible. If you doubt me, read to book "More than a Carpentar" by Josh McDowell. He was writing a thesis trying to disprove the historical accuracy of Christianity, and couldn't find the proof against it. In fact, he found so much HISTORICAL and ARCHAEOLOGICAL evidence FOR the Bible that he became a Christian. This book came out of those studies, and address everything that you can come up with (without evidence) to say the Bible is a lie.
I also want to share that I am not doing this out of anger, bitterness, or just plain stupidity. I have a desire to share what I believe... and if someone doesn't want me to share, what is the point of asking the question? I respect both the Christians and non-Christians alike who ask and answer question without a bad attitude in their motives. But I will not hold back what I believe just because someone may be offended. I won't be offended. Jesus already told me that the world will hate me because of Him, but I am not seeking the love of the world. I have the love of my creator, and that's more than enough for me :)

I think that goes for any religion. And you're wrong. If you were presented with the evidence that God exists, which just about everyone in the world today has been, and you still refuse to accept it, then you're in trouble. Sorry, but that's the way it is. Where as if us Muslims, Christians, or Jews believe in God and followed his ways we didn't lose a thing. Maybe we didn't commit fornication and get a crotch full of STDs, but hey, we lived a good clean life. To each his own though.

I've already answered alot of your questions. Stupidity is the prime componet to your questions. Well if we are wrong then we have lost nothing except an hour on sundays. You have lost your eternal life in heaven if you are wrong. What makes me so certain is that you are so incompetent. If that was your pic then you would have it on your computer or at least the URL so you could upload it to your avatar. My conclusion is that it is not your real pic just one you saw that you thought was cool and you use it to raise your self-esteem. Plus if that was your pic then you would say your site to advertise for your CD. Plus people much smarter than you have said that they belive in god.
"A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profoundest reason and the most radiant beauty - it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude; in this sense, and in this alone, I am a deeply religious man." (Albert Einstein)
I think this one suits you.
"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe." - Albert Einstein

Why would one who believed in Jesus waste their whole life? Their belief did not stop them from living or being productive. A marriage that ends from adultery does not take away from the many things that happened in the marriage, they still happened, good and bad. So to answer your question "WHAT'S THE POINT IN LIVING IF YOU SPENT YOUR WHOLE LIFE MAKING A FOOL OF YOURSELF?" The defination of fool is up to you. I think living your life loving people, being kind and having fun is not foolish, however wasting it on hate and trying to force your beliefs on others may be foolish. And the point of living is the same for everyone, what else would you have us do?

God will not understand, He created you. You really have no spiritual authority to believe in or not believe in anything but God.
I am not making a "fool" of myself, I have been on the other side, whats that old saying, Sex Drugs n' Rock n Roll. I will tell you my life as a christian has exceeded the amount of fun I used to have. My quality of life is so much better, and my new friendships have helped me grow which, in turn has made me a better person, mother, daughter and friend. I do not regret one decision I have made, even the friendships I severed. God Bless You.

Following Jesus is not the same as being cheated on by your Husband. I would know!
If I strive for my whole life to be more like Jesus Christ and love Him and I get to the end of my days satisfied that I had served Him all my life, but I had loved more fully than I ever thought possible, before I knew Him and made Unity in the body of Christ my life's goal and I die and there is nothing.
Will I be disappointed? I don't think so. Nothing doesn't care.

No, God would say that He gave you a chance and you choose not to obey. Plus, you are creating a god that doesn't exist which is against His Commandments.
Even if there is no God at the end, I know my life is full of joy, full of friendship. It also is a lot of fun. My life is not a waste even if there is no God. How am I making a fool out of a decision that I made? Isn't it all a matter of opinion who the fool is?

My life would not be a "joke" as you so laughingly portray it. It just means you lived your life to the best of your knowledge and understanding. The question for Atheists is are you a non believer in absolutely everything because you have done all the research of the different belief systems and nothing fits you? Or is it something you just do not want to believe in because of your own self dillusion?

You state that if God is good then He will understand and let it pass right?
If you were brought before a judge, guilty of grand theft, there is no doubt you are guilty, and the judge does not punish you, would you consider him a good judge? I wouldn't, and I could not say that God is good if He lets sins pass.
If I am wrong, I have still led a good life and hopefully have been able to help others. If I am right, then you are in some serious trouble.
