Answer 1

The best part of being a person of Faith is the fact that it is a gift from God. Not all souls come to that gift at the same time. Your only assignment is to plant a seed. If it falls on infertile ground so be it. If it flourishes nurture it.
It was Jesus that changed the world.Be at Peace as a wittiness and let the Holy Spirit due the sprouting of the seeds you are able to plant.

Answer 2

You are looking for 100% proof when it is impossible to prove a negative. However, it is very possible to draw a studied conclusion from the evidence. I urge you to do the same for your theism. Here's my thoughts about why I believe there is no god.

First, you haven't defined the term "God." The problem with most theists is that this term is a moving target.

In addition, because there is no evidence either for or against the existence of God, you cannot use deductive logic (a+b=c; therefore c-b=a). You can only reach a conclusion by inductive reasoning using the balance of evidence (90% of A is also B; C is B, so the chances are 90% that C is also A).

I will assert (and others may shoot this down) that the only RELEVANT definition of God states that he intervenes to circumvent natural laws.

If God circumvents natural laws, then it is impossible to understand natural laws. All scientific findings would have to include the stipulation, "it is also possible that these results are an act of God, a miracle, thereby making our research meaningless."

However, since we have been able to expand our knowledge of natural laws (evidenced by every appliance in your kitchen), the scientific method works in this discovery. And the likely conclusion is that God, at least the intervening kind, does not exist.

Additionally, if God is defined as all loving, all powerful, and all knowing, then it is impossible to explain suffering. Either God is not all loving (he acts sadistically), not all powerful (he cannot prevent suffering), or not all knowing (he created suffering by mistake because he didn't know the consequences of his actions).

If God is less than these and/or does not intervene in our existence, then he is either non-existent or irrelevant. The classic argument is that I cannot prove that a china teapot is not orbiting the sun directly across from the earth's orbit. But while I cannot prove this is not true, the evidence against it is compelling.

The evidence against God is equally compelling, and while it is not possible to prove beyond any doubt, it makes more sense to live your life as if there were not God.

It is more compelling to me that humans have invented God to reflect the thoughts of the ruling powers in a particular time. Because humans are always looking for reasons, when none are found, it was the natural inclination to declare the cause to be "God" (or gods). As the faith grew, miracles and laws have been ascribed to this Divinity, and an orthodoxy grows up around it.

Successful religions over the long run also are accompanied by some level of economic well-being to the populace. Unsuccessful ones are seen as false because they don't lead to improved lives.

Now it seems unhelpful to believe in such superstition. The only matters that aid in our ongoing well being are work, location, health, sustenance, and pure, blind luck.

So no, I don't believe God exists. And you know what? It's okay if you do believe God exists.

Answer 3

I can't prove somethings non-existence. If I take the candle off the table and destroy it in another room I don't have to prove the candle isn't on the table anymore to anyone...... Look it's not there. That's it. How do you prove that? It just is what it is. Obviously not there. So if you are so confident why would you even pose the question? What if I could prove it? What if there was a real room where you believed God to be and I could take you there and whip open the door and say see!! No one lives here. How would that make you feel?? Wouldn't make my life any better.

Answer 4

You can't prove a negative. You either believe or disbelieve. As long as you are happy with yourself, nothing else matters.
It is so sad that there are so many "Believers" in the world that need confirmation from everyone else one way or the other over the existence of God. Look within yourself for your answers, & stop expecting "proof" one way or the other from everyone else, 'cause you're never going to get it.

Answer 5

Everyone has different views of God and heaven. Some more drastic then others. Some don't believe in either of the 2.

I for one am an Agnostic. I do believe in God, but I have a hard time believing in Heaven/Hell, because I don't really see any physical proof. Even when I think with logic, it doesn't make much sense. But I'm not completely ruling it out, its possible but we'll see or not in that split second of the end.

I do however also believe in miracles, deja vu and karma though.

Answer 6

Because you asked the question. The burden of proof is on you. No need to prove there is no god, but science is doing it all the time. But there is no proof from religion of the existence of a god. Only blind faith. Quoting the bible isn't proof. I want perfect confirmation on this. 100%. I want proof.

Answer 7

Sorry but why should we have to prove to you there isn't?

Those who believe that god is there are the ones that need to prove ... AND I WANT 100% PROOF ... that god is there to us, not the other way round.

FRIENDSHIPBAND -
Nice to see you are one of those believers who blindly follows what is written rather than having a mind your own.

DISHCHAIR -
1) What specific prophecies have been fulfilled, name them? People claim that Nostradamus made prophecies that were fulfilled .... OH I GET IT, YOU ARE SAYING NOSTRADAMUS IS GOD.
2) We were not created by god, we are the result of SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN evolution.

CLEM -
The same old argument, god doesn't want to be proven to exist so we can't do it ... rubbish, you can't do it because the proof isn't there.

Answer 8

PROVE to me there IS a God? Can't do it...thought so. OK, so now do you know how it feels? You don't HAVE to prove anything, just like I don't HAVE to prove to you that there isn't a God. It's what you believe in, so fine. It is called FAITH because there isn't hard evidence proving it is real. I could give countless arguements of how God does not exist, but I think everyone should believe in what they want to believe in as long as it is not harmful to others. Ignorance is bliss right?

Answer 9

I am pleased to advise you that you need not prove that there is a God in Heaven. You need not prove that there is a Heaven, either. It is nearly impossible to prove what one cannot see and what, to a few thinking souls, is illogical in the first place. Let us examine first the nature of Heaven with some serious questions.
1) Will Heaven be air-conditioned for our comfort on hot days and heated on cold days? Will we have individual thermostats, since some of us are cold when others are hot? Will we have clothes from Target of from Bergdorf’s?
2) Will there also be a heaven for mosquitoes? Will the Mosquito Heaven have human beings from which to draw blood? Will we itch in Heaven or only get the red bumps?
3) Will there be a Heaven for cockroaches? Will they be bothering the human beings? How about the Heaven for snakes?
4) Will I be able to choose which relatives I see in Heaven? I did not like all my relatives.
5) Will there be a menu that suits my preferences, and will meat eaters be accommodated as nicely as vegetarians are accommodated? Who will kill the cows for the meat eaters, especially if there are Hindus in Heaven?
6) What if God is a homosexual? After all, no one has ever talked about a Mrs. God, and Jesus hung around with 12 other men. If God is gay, will heterosexuals be treated poorly in Heaven?
7) How will I get transported to this Heaven if I am (1) cremated into thousands of specs of dust or (2) buried in an expensive, waterproof vault wrapped around a casket that it takes 6 men to carry?
8) Will they speak English in Heaven, or will it be Spanish (they are better believers)? If only Hebrew or Arabic is spoken, will there be translators for those of us who only speak English?
9) Will there be sex in Heaven, and will we look old or young or dead? What if Heaven meant oral sex for my husband but not for me? How does that work if we are both in Heaven? Will he be with his first wife, who predeceased me, or will he be with me?
10) As for God, since the Big Bang occurred billions of years before man was on Earth, will God be an amoeba, a dinosaur, a plant, or a Wizard of Oz mystery? If the latter, how will I be able to ask him about the air-conditioning controls? Will I have red slippers on which I can click the heels? Will I be able to get back to Kansas if I hate Heaven?
11) Will it not be Heaven enough just to be dead? That way, I will have no more worries, no more bills to pay, no more meals to cook, no more oral sex to perform, no more neighbors to act like I love, no more sleepless nights, no more arthritis medicine, no more hair to dye, no more toilets to clean, no more sheets to change, no more groceries to buy, no more dishes to wash, no more money to make, no more stamps to lick, no more lines in which to wait, etc? What a relief such a Heaven would be! Maybe that is why I need not prove there is a God in Heaven. Everyone knows that being dead gets rid of everything you hate now! That must be the real answer to the question. But if that is true, then why did Sheikh Khalid Mohammed spill his guts on a waterboard rather than drown to death? Could it be that he did not believe there was a Heaven, or that there would not be 72 virgins waiting for him if he kept his mouth shut, or that Heaven might be run by Christians or Jews and not by Muslims? If you are a Muslim virgin, then is Heaven really Hell if you are waiting there for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed? What man would want a virgin, anyway? Would Heaven not be more likely to offer an experienced prostitute, instead, or better yet, 72 of them and an unlimited American Express Centurion Card or Monopoly money for payment? What proof of Heaven are you really looking for? Maybe you will be more likely to find an answer in a whorehouse than in church! I bet the best prostitutes have already been booked for the most holy men on this earth by some concierge at one of the Four Seasons hotels in Cairo or the Esteghlal Grand Hotel in Tehran, or the Vatican in Rome (where, instead, they probably reserved the hottest of the Swiss Guard for gay priests who have kept their vows of chastity on Earth). My God, Heaven must be great! No wonder those suicide bombers are lining up to get there! It must be better than the Chicken Ranch or a steam room at a muscle gym.

Incidentally, the question asker ought not to be the judge of the best answer. How can someone who asks a stupid question be the judge of when there is an intelligent answer? There needs to be a Yahoo God who judges the answers.

Answer 10

Not exactly my own words and you may find this silly.My grandfather R.I.P tried to explain the mistery this way.I was 12,now I'm 16.He said:Look, let's say this is a bacteria and you are its human host.This creature is living its own life and it's not aware of your existence and can't see you.It doesn't mean you don't exist.A butterfly doesn't know your plans and can't understand why you go to school every morning.It doesn't mean that your plan is not good.I know it's not a scientific explanation and not much philosophy.My sister had asked where is God
Thank you.I need God more than ever.
