1) Christians...and Athiests. Don't you ever wish that we could just be one big family and not juding us by our religion? Now, I have been expericing more Athiests and Christians both arguing with each other just because they're trying to prove that God doesn't exist and that God does exist. A lot of people have once told me that some Athiests are rude to Christians because some of us have been swearing at them and forcing them to believe in our religion. Don't any of you guys both Christians and athiests just wish that someday, we won't judge eachother because of our religion? And that someday there wouldn't be an Anti-Christ war? Please tell why.
2) Do you ever wish that you would just die, because of how bad life is getting, and how worse it is getting while it's already bad? I have told tons of people that complain about their lives and saying that they want to kill themselves yet I want to do that too.

And Christians and Athiests, don't you wish that God just didn't exist and that there was another god instead that existed and told us, he/she did so that we wouldn't have to argue? And that he/she did almost the same thing God did? Don't you just wish that life would get better and that we would be kinder to everyone and just understand everyone?

You are very sweet , but it doesn't matter what we think. There will always be. White and Black. Good and Evil.
There is no argument from me . I could not imagine a world without atheist. I blame them the least. They don't know what they do. Just as you said, who is it that commits suicide. Who is it that is afraid to live.

Believing in God does not make a christian. Even the devil believes in God.

Einstein who had been an atheist said, something to the effect that our universe could not have been random and conceded a Superior reasoning power, was his idea of God.

I could not imagine an end the way you have shown. Oh how I wish you could be embraced by the light of God and know his everlasting love.

1) I enjoy debating. I don't like to see insulting and name calling. I often argue religious points because I like the challenge, it's something I know a little about, and philisophical differences that underly our moral and ethical beliefs fascinate me. I usually don't argue with people who don't also enjoy the argument unless the other person is being very rude or insulting in which case I am less concerned for civility.
But don't mistake debate for ill will. I will debate readily questions of religion and atheism, but that doesn't mean that I'm any the less a friend of the person I disagree with. most of my friends, and most of the people I've ever loved, believe in at least one god. My disagreement with them on the issue hasn't lessened our relationships at all. With most I don't discuss the matter at all because they aren't the sort who enjoy the debate. With some I do. Disagreement isn't bad. There's so much to disagree about in the world. It's all a matter of how you handle it. If you can stay friendly despite the disagreement then it's no terrible thing that we don't all see everything the same way.

2) There's a certain attraction to death- the cessation of all pain, it seems relatively peaceful and serene. It would be the end of all our problems. But then, it would be the end of all our joys and all our contentment and surprise and pleasure. It will come soon enough, I want to prolong all the good things in life even if there are a lot of bad ones.
If life is that bad, change it. Change it drastically. What could go wrong? it wouldn't be worse than death. And if the changed life isn't good then change again. But it makes more sense to me to do an inventory of your life and find gives you happiness. Try to increase those things that do. what gives you fear and pain? try to decrease those. Tinker with the life you have, don't throw it away. Never end it to "show" anyone anything. All that shows is selfishness and short-sightedness.

1) Yeah life would be better if we all live in harmony and not judge each other or wish our religion or any onther thing for that matter is better than somebody else's. But we just have to accept the fact that we all are born with sin & we have to try to the best of our ability to fight the devil and his army so one day when all can go to heaven, where we can enjoy the beautiful life Jesus is preparing for us, for those who are willing to follow Him & defend Him as our king.

2) I can relate to this question because I were one of the people, who thought everyday is just getting worse & worse. Suicide was an option most of the time & I even came close. But I was fortunate to have good friends and family boosting my spirits & giving me all the support I need. I'm a Christian, and I've also just been asking for God's helping hand, and He's shown me that there is more to life & living it to the best of my abilities.

Hope these will answer your questions and hope you'll also get the strength to live each day as if there would be no tomorrow!!

You seem kinda depressed, cheer up your life can't be that bad.

1) I do, but the fundamentalists are going to have to realize that it's okay if someone doesn't believe what they believe. I would have no problem with Christians if some of them weren't trying to impose their beliefs on others through government or treating non-believers like we are some sort of evil entity.

2) No...life isn't really that bad. The world does have many problems but if people who don't like it started killing themselves would only make things worse. Those of use who are concerned for the state of the world should want to lives so that we can have a chance to make a difference.

3) If there is a god s/he/it should get down here and straighten everyone out. However, I don't expect that will be happening.

It is difficult to get people with diametrical opposing views to see eye to eye. I choose to look at life on planet Earth from a logical point of view. I don't have the answers. I just refuse to believe that some myths, written thousands of years ago hold any truth. Frankly people are gullible, and hold all sorts of ridiculous believes. Astrology, Faith Healing, bending spoons with your mind, the fact that people believe in these things does not make them true. There is no evidence. Yes, I wish people would open their minds and accept other peoples point of view. I for one don't care what you believe in. Just don't try to force others to your point of view. If you wonder what that can lead to, ask the folks in the Middle East.

As far as life being bad, read some real history. Life in the past was tragic. It is small wonder that people were looking for a life in the hereafter. Life on Earth before the 20th. century sucked. It's to bad that there are so many people on this planet that want to go back to the way things were.

Well yea wouldnt that be great but the reality its that there is a God that watches over us and that his son Jesus Christ would soon come for his people and thats what we want the athiest to understand because we dont want them to stay when Jesus comes and takes his people who really serve him with all their heart. Then their gonna realize it and regret not listening to us because Jesus is comin very soon, the time is now when u should accept him as ur savior and serve him and not think about killin yourself because if u do thats consider sin and you will never see heavens gate but satans tormentation where u will stay for ever. But it would be nice if God was here in earth that way there wont be no kaos or arguments between religion and we would all have peace and follow the same god but we have to realize that thats just not happening we should face reality and give our life to jesus!

yes but it does get better with age, you get alot of people both atheist and christian on here that are immature

No, life is never that bad. Sure everyone gets a little depressed now and then but there are things you can control in life and things you can not control. If there is something in life that you can not control that is causing you harm you need to let it go, detatch yourself from the problem. If it is something you can control. stop complaining about it and do something to change it instead

I'll just address (2) ... not really. The world isn't honestly any worse overall than it was 100 years ago ... if anything, it's probably better.

Take a moment to truly consider the day-to-day lives of people living just a few generations in the past ... and the extreme tensions of the day with war and destruction. We really have it quite good ...

1) If Christians would leave everyone else alone (which means not starting wars and passing laws based on Christianity in addition to not badgering people who aren't interested with psycho-babble religious nonsense), I think you would find most others (except Muslims) would leave you alone as well.

2) No. I love life. Maybe your beleifs are part of the problem rather than part of the solution as Christians like to claim.

The conflict is not between the various religions.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].
