You can never scare me with your responses. I'm 100% certain of the truth. The reason I asked about the fire was to see if you believe in something. Most of you say that, a Christian is not open minded, your right once you know the truth, people can't convince you of anything. If you really want to know the truth asked God if he's real to help you find it. Even if the chances are really slim, wouldn't it be wise to see for sure. Most of the world does believe in a higher power.
The preaching of the cross is foolishness to the perishing. But the bible promises every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. The end of the world is coming soon. The computer chips will be required in order to buy or sell. The anti-Christ will come to power. He will offer a false peace, but will turn against the people after he gets his power. Then the entire world will come to put an end to the Jews. The last minute Jesus will come back on a white horse with the saints

1. Matter cannot be created nor destroyed, so it always was just like God. Just like we believe people spirits are eternal
2.) Your consious came from God, so that we would know right from wrong. Proof a child is raised in abuse, he knows it is wrong.
3.) God gave life. Life comes from life
4.) We know God's exist since his spirit lives inside us.
5.) Humans are incapable of making up the idea of God. Try making up a new color impossible
6.) In order for something to be made, there has to be a maker. Nobody could believe that a car could be made by mother nature. Yet we are supposed to believe that something more complex like a human can
7-8.) God could have made evolution if he wanted too
9.) No proof anywhere actually a guy will give anyone $500000 to show evidence of this..I will find you the website if you ask
10.) Space has no ending, time doesnt exist. just like numbers has no ending.

1.) Where did matter come from that created the big bang? There was a chemical/gas reaction in the beginning which created the rest of the matter.
2.) Where did your conscience come from? From my thought processes of knowing what is right and wrong.
3.) How did life evolve from a non living substance? How does hydrogen a gas, and oxygen a gas make water, a liquid? Same process only more complex.
4.) How do you know there is no God? There is a rational explanation for everything in the world, why do we need a God?
5.) Who was the first person to come up with the idea of God? Someone a very long time ago who was either afraid of dying, didn't know where thunder and earthquakes came from, or asked himself "Man, where did all those stars come from?"
6.) Could mother nature create a car, or a computer? She did, we can think faster than computers, and we move. However if you mean literally no, because mother nature creates ORGANIC life not INORGANIC objects.
7.) If we evolved from one species, did it reproduce by having sex iwth itself. No, it's called Mitosis... cells splitting... maybe you've heard of it?
8.) If the first creature came from water, how did it change from gills to lungs or vice versa if the opposite is true. It gradually developed both options for breathing. Like amphibians.
9.) Were is proof of this transtional form? Lost in the fathoms of time.
10.) Were does space end, and where did time start? Space is infinite, time starts at the split second where space starts.
11.) How is their a perfect amount of water on the Earth to sustain life. The perfect distance for the Earth to be from the sun, so we don't freeze or burn up. The perfect atmosphere so that the Earth retains its heat.
There is not a perfect amount of water. Fresh water is the important thing. Also, you are judging after the fact. We are the perfect distance comparitively because this is the temperature our lives have evolved to become accustomed to. Ice Age, heard of it?
12.) How do you know that if there was a God, that he couldn't send his spirit to live in an individual to know the truth. What if what if what if. There is no god as I already stated so this question has no purpose.
13.) How do you know that fire is really hot? The nerves in our body send chemical signals to our brain telling us it is.

You seemed to be confused. An atheist is not an oracle, nor do atheists know the answer to everything. Just because you have a little fairy tale that you choose to believe in doesn’t make you right or any more knowledgeable than the next person. Further, simply because an atheist doesn’t have all the answers doesn’t mean that your Biblical stories of magic are automatically right. Humans don’t have all the answers, but this does not mean that if we don’t understand something the answer must lie in the supernatural.
Now I will have a shot at your questions.
1.) Who knows where the matter came from that created the Big Bang. Maybe the universe expands outwards for a while and then billions of years later implodes back on itself. Maybe this is the second universe or maybe it is the thousandth. Who knows? By the same token if you are arguing that everything must come from somewhere, how about God? Why doesn’t He fit this logic?
2.) Conscience is just an evolved intelligence.
3.) No idea what sparked life. Maybe an alien sneezed in a pond billions of years ago. It is no more absurd than Adam and Eve.
4.) I have no proof that there is no God. But then I have no proof that there are no fairies or angels or Unicorns. But an atheist merely listens to the Biblical stories and determines that they don’t believe in them. This does not mean they have done an in depth study to prove it. Have you done an in depth study to prove that voodoo is nonsense? Choosing not to believe in something is a choice we are all free to make.
5.) The idea of God has I am sure developed over thousands of years. People wanted to explain why there was thunder, why people died, what happened to dead people etc. So people made up stories. These stories evolved as they were passed from generation to generation and became more intricate as they passed along.
6.) Mother nature could not produce a car or a computer, although one might argue that the best computer in the world is the human brain. Not sure where you are going with this question.
7.) Again you make the erroneous assumption that all atheists are science experts with an intricate knowledge of biology and evolution. I’m sure there are plenty of atheists who suck at science and don’t have a clue about biology.
8.) There are amphibious creatures alive today that can exist in both water and on land.
9.) Where is proof that Adam and Eve were the first humans?
10.) Who knows where space starts and ends and ditto time. But again the absence of knowledge does not prove anything. Only human arrogance would suspect that we should know everything.
11.) There are trillions of stars and planets out there. With such a massive selection of scenarios around the vast expanse of space it stands to reason that even the unlikely will happen eventually.
12.) That question made no sense.
13.) I have touched fire and it has burned me.

1) I don't know. I'm an unbeliever, not a scientist. Ask a scientist.
2) I don't know. I'm an unbeliever, not a psychologist. Ask a psychologist.
3) See (1)
4) It's not that I know. It's rather that I don't care.
5) I don't know. I'd say some jerk who saw a great way to manipulate humanity.
6) No. Human mind did that.
7) I'd say so, why?
8) In the course of several generations, species become more adjusted to their environment. I'm not a scientist, but even I know that.
9) That, I don't know. I'm not a scientist.
10) How on earth do you expect me to know that?
11) There isn't a perfect amount of water on earth. We're running out of water. And as for the distance from the sun and the right atmosphere for human life, it's the other way round, SINCE we have the right conditions, life could evolve here, rather than in Mars or Venus. In such a large universe, there was bound to be a planet were the right conditions could be found. That's not a miracle. It's statistics.
12) If you're willing to admit there is a god, then you can make it do whatever you please. It's like a writer of science fiction. Will you make your character fly? Then it can fly. Do you want God to be able to send his spirit into a person, then so be it. But it's fiction. You aren't proving anything.
13) I've burnt myself once. But what has this got to do with anything?
And a general answer to you, even if those questions couldn't be answered, that would be because science hasn't evolved enough yet. It's possible that science will be able to give you all the answers you need, not only to these questions, but also to some more elaborate ones, that science has REALLY not answered yet.
And even if science could never find an answer to some of your questions, that would still not mean that the right answer is that God did it. To prove the existence of God, it's not enough to find weak points in science. It's also necessary to actually prove that God did those things. Your underlying implication is really not serious.

1. Matter came from the collapsing of a 4d enviornment
2. Brain. We'll figure that out later.
3. We probably started as random chains of ammino acids and whatnot.
4. How do you know there is a god?
5. First person? Whoever started to wonder about the world
6. No...WE did. By being an oxygen blooded creature and having a large brain, we can make such things.
7. No. The first organisms reproduced by binary fissions. In order to have sex with yourself, you would reqire both sex organs. Instead, the first organisms did not have any sex organs, and just divided.
8. Natural Selection and mutations from sunlight. Without mutations, we would all be the same.
9. Fossils.
10. Space is forever expanding due to the big bang. So you could technically say it has a finite length. However, because it's expanding, and the entropy, it is inevitable that either Gravity, Energy, or Dark Matter will cause the end. Time started as the mass of 4d collapsed.
11. Chance. Why is it that I flip a coin heads comes up? Probability.
12. That's just a stupid question, it's not even philosophical.
13. It burns my hand. Brain tells me to take my hand away from it.

Questions to Atheist?
1.) Where did matter come from that created the big bang? - I don't care. It doesn't affect me in any way. In fact, I don't really care if the big bang is not how it all started. It doesn't matter why we are here if the reason ceases to impact our lives.
2.) Where did your conscience come from? My brain obviously. I know right from wrong just as well as anyone else, and when I die it will cease to exist.
3.) How did life evolve from a non-living substance? - Who defined what non-living means? Could it be a cosmic accident? Perhaps it is not god that is immortal, but the existence of life. Is it not just as likely, or even more so, that life has existed forever rather than god having existed forever?
4.) How do you know there is no God? - I am unable to feel or sense the presence of a higher being. I tried as a child, and since I never reached a point of transcendence, I now assume that the god related feelings others get is the result of the god spot in the brain. I have no basis for faith, thus I can have no faith.
5.) Who was the first person to come up with the idea of God? - Who knows...who cares? It's like the wheel, lost in time.
6.) Could mother nature create a car, or a computer? - What is mother nature? Do I have to believe in her too? Everything is technically from nature, as nature is everything.
7.) If we evolved from one species, did it reproduce by having
sex with itself. - one species of what? Isn't reproduction defined by sex with a like creature (or one creature with both sex organs)? I suppose so, but your question seems unclear.
8.) If the first creature came from water, how did it change from gills to lungs or vice versa if the opposite is true? - There are fish in the deepest parts of the ocean that have non-working eyes. Isn't it almost proven that although they don't need the eyes, their ancestors did? Some snakes have bone nubs where feet once were on their ancestors. It is possible that earlier land animals had gills, or internal gills, but didn't use them.
9.) Were is proof of this transitional form? - The skeleton named Lucy (I think it was found in Africa) has bone structure in-between human and ape. Other skeletons have been found with humanoid features. Amphibians are the transitional animals, built for land and water.
10.) Were does space end, and where did time start? - I don't know, don't care, and don't think it is possible to know. Humans are not the controllers of the universe, merely inhabitants.
11.) How is their a perfect amount of water on the Earth to sustain life. The perfect distance for the Earth to be from the sun, so we don't freeze or burn up. The perfect atmosphere so that the Earth retains its heat. - If there weren't, then we wouldn't exist. What is the function of the planets on which life is not possible? Isn't the Earth just another planet, but with circumstances that allow the life forms we understand to exist? Why does this have anything to do with god?
12.) How do you know that if there was a God, that he couldn't send his spirit to live in an individual to know the truth. - Again, there is no reason to believe in a god. If reason doesn't exist in the room, there is no reason in the door, as the door remains part of the reasonless room.
13.) How do you know that fire is really hot? - Again, what does this have to do with being an atheist? I know fire gives off the sensation of heat because I have felt it when I near fire. If god were to give off a sensation, I would believe in him as much as I believe in fire.

Not an atheist.
1. Matter can neither be created or destroyed.
2. Conscience came from learning, as a child. I'm sure that as an infant, I had no awareness of self or of others, but learned it over the years, and learned the importance of respecting others as they are like myself.
6. The law of chances state that, given enough time, anything that can possibly happen, will.
7. No doubt that, in the theory of evolution, much evolutionary progress was lost to breeding with members who had not yet evolved.
8. It would be likely that such a creature adapts to both, not changing from one to another. The change is completed in later generations by the elimination of organs that were useful for breathing underwater, which would not necessarilly be gills.
10. Space is unmeasurable, but the universe can be measured as the furthest distance between points of matter or energy. Time started with the first event.
11. See question 6.
13. I think I learned after being burned. Did you mean how do you know without experiencing it?
Why is your question in Religion & Spirituality? Just trying to show up atheists?

1.) Where did matter come from that created the big bang?
I don't know. It was al compressed to one infantesimal point and then it began to expand. I guess it always existed. Where did God come from?
2.) Where did your conscience come from?
Conciousness is a random collection of chemical reactions.
3.) How did life evolve from a non living substance?
The ultraviolet light from the sun along with lightening strikes on the Earth 3 billion years ago allowed for the randon convergence of amino acids to form a molecule that could make crude copies of itself. This was the first DNA double helix molecule. This experiment has been recreated in a lab. It did not create a living being, but it did create amino acids.
4.) How do you know there is no God?
There is no way to prove a negative. I simply don't see any evidence for the existence of god. Why do you believe there is a god?
5.) Who was the first person to come up with the idea of God?
some freightened, primativ eperson who wished that he had more control over the world around him so he made up stories to fool himself that he was in cotrol of his enviornment through god.
6.) Could mother nature create a car, or a computer?
Is there a point to this question? Do you think that god created cars and computers?
7.) If we evolved from one species, did it reproduce by having sex iwth itself.
no, it reproduced and passed it's trait along to the next generation.
8.) If the first creature came from water, how did it change from gills to lungs or vice versa if the opposite is true.
Random mutations in it's genetic code.
9.) Were is proof of this transtional form?
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2002/07/0704_020703T_Vtetrapod.html
10.) Were does space end, and where did time start?
Your questions make no sense.
11.) How is their a perfect amount of water on the Earth to sustain life. The perfect distance for the Earth to be from the sun, so we don't freeze or burn up. The perfect atmosphere so that the Earth retains its heat.
You are looking at the end result and declaring it divine. Look at it as it occured. If there were not enough water on Earth, we would not have as much life here as we do. If the earth were closer or further from the sun, then life would not be here or it would be in a different form to adapt. The atmosphere is a fragile thin coating that we are currently changing the composition of... which may end up making the Earth inhabitable for us... Or do you think that God will save us from that?
12.) How do you know that if there was a God, that he couldn't send his spirit to live in an individual to know the truth.
If he were so great, he wouldn't need a middleman to speak through to talk to me. If knowledge of his existence was so important, then he would not hide himself by leaving no evidence as to his existence. If how I lived were so important, he would know that I would not take the words written by primitve men thousands of years ago literally. How can I know for sure that these things happened?
13.) How do you know that fire is really hot?
And fear is stronger.

1) Nobody knows that...... and you dont either
But not knowing doesnt automatically mean "god did it".
Science is different from religion in that - we admit it when there is no wa to know.
2) Curent theory is - its a program running in an organic computer (your brain)
3) If you froze "dead" elements in ice of a certain depth, you'd get primitive DNA. If you gave it nutrient - it would endure. If you gave it time, it would evolve.
4) We dont.... just like you dont "know" there is one. Since nobody "knows" in a provable way, given the state of the world, either god is a Sadist or he doesnt exist - thats the best guess currently.
5) Someone scared of dying, likely.
6) Is that relevant? It created us - and we created cars etc.
7) Asexual recombination is still how many creatures reproduce.
8) Evolution.
9) Its likely too old to be found now but there are, even today "lungfish" in Africa.
10) Space is infinite. Time doesnt exist except in the mind of men.
11) Those are the conditions we evolved under - they'd have to be "perfect" - those evolutions that found it damaging - died off.
12) We dont..... if this sadistic god existed, I suspect he could do whatever he liked.
13) It burns.
Now..... you answer something - little boy.
