That a gentleman who preforms lie detctor test for a living said that 100% of the time if you ask someone if they believe in God and they say no, the test shows they are lying.

First: lie detector tests are notoriously inaccurate.
Second: almost nothing happens 100% of the time. The fact that you use this figure leads me to believe that it's probably a completely fabricated rhetorical point.
Third: I may be convinced to believe you if I was given some kind of source other than a story transferred by hearsay. Lacking that, the only thing I find interesting here is your gullibility and lack of critical thinking when you think you've found something that bolsters what you already believe. Better luck next time.

I do find that interesting but even more interesting is to ask those that have been near a person that is close to death. Almost all cry out to God. Just like there "are no atheists in a foxhole." Most people when faced with death or death is imminent, if they had no faith, suddenly look to God. And almost all people believe there is something there after death, even so-called Atheists.

Ah, so clearly God must be altering the chemicals in our body to mirror the state when one is telling a lie whenever they are faced with that question.
There's a reason why lie detector tests are not considered evidence in any courtroom.
And it's probably the same reason why you haven't backed up what you've said: Inaccuracy.

I could honestly say I don't believe in god so I don't believe that. And for the poster that said there are no foxhole atheists...that's not true. My husband came back from Iraq more convinced than ever that there is no god.

that's totally interesting. However, the lie detector test is not even accurate at all. it cannot be used in a court of law, and it's so out dated it's crazy. A better lie detector test is a mix of acid and ecstacy.

Yes, but when 100% of your test subjects are beleivers and they lie about their faith, what would you expect??
Lie decetors cant be used in a court of law. Why should I accept its results as proof of God?

wow!! i totally believe that... people are exhibitionists! and once we've been hurt or failed, we have to blame someone. so, when all else fails.... why not blame someone or thing that can't get in your face and knock the crap outta ya and bring that physical pain that no one wants to feel. ?!... well, unfortunately people don't realize the hell they are currently living in, but constantly claiming 'No GOD' or 'God sux!'.... Fools! God's got 'em just where they need to be... by the ****s!!!!! and they don't even have a clue!

the readings of the lie detector are subject to interpreting by the person doing the reading. all the blips mean is that the person being tested diesn't like the question. it has been proved many times that those test are most often wrong.

Hmmmmm...is this like the story where a little girl adopts a Chihuahua in Mexico, which later turns out to be a rat?

I find it interesting, but I don't find it believable...It's amazing how often you have to point this out to people: if you're going to make such bold statements, CITE YOUR SOURCES. Either that, or don't expect anyone but Christians to believe you.
