You may be alive but you are like a dead man without Christ. You will live out your life and die and go to hell. It would have been better for you never to have been born.

Are you asking me whether I can live without another human being (physically or spiritually)???
Then my answer is YES!!!!
Jesus never claimed in the Bible that he was a god or the God. He always stressed that 'His Farther is greater than him' and whatever he does he does by the permission of 'his Father'.
Bible mentions that Jesus felt thirsty, hungry, sleepy and that he did not know some things in some situations.
If he ate and drank then after some time he needed to relieve himself......I mean to do toilet.
If he slept then he did not realize what was happening around him.
What kind of god is that who eats, drinks, sleeps, does toilet or does not know?
Eating, drinking, sleeping, doing toilet or not knowing is the property of human being not god.
Jesus Christ was a human being, 'Son of Man' and not even once in the Bible he claimed divinity in any form.
I challenge any one to find and quote me even one statement by Jesus where he unequivocally said that he was the God and that all should worship him!!!! I challenge any one!!!!
You can never find it because it is not there, because Jesus never claimed that.
I will never worship another human being even if it is the best human being on the Earth. I will worship only my Creator and I will never believe that my creator feels hungry, thirsty, sleepy or is in need of toilet and he has body like I do.

My reply to 'Try Again' who is below.
It turns out that this place does not work as a forum or discussion board and I cannot post more than two answers, so I decided to open and continue my original message.
First of all I never said that Jesus never had claimed to be the Son of God, I said that Jesus had never claimed to be God. But I understand that you are assuming that by saying that he was Son of God Jesus meant that he was God.
But if if the phrase 'Son of God' means that Jesus is God then, according to the Bible, Adam and angels and others are also gods.
Job 1:6; 2:1; and 38:7 speak of angles as sons of God.
John 1:12; Romans 8:14; 8:98; Philippians 2:15; and 1 John 3:1-2 speak of sons of God as saved believers.
This is the reference that Adam is also son of God: Luke 3:38 Which was the son of Enos, which was the son of Seth, which was the son of Adam, which was “the son of God”.
Please do not confuse your assumptions with the genius of the language of Jews. That was how Jews spoke, and when they spoke 'son' or 'sons of God' meant godly and pious person(s).
Otherwise Adam, angels or other believers should also be considered gods.
It was a nice try 'Try Again'. Why don't you try again!?
I told you above that I need unequivocal statement. I need you to show me the place in the Bible where Jesus says that he is God and as such all should worship him.
After all, the divinity if Jesus is the foundation of Christianity. If it is true, then there must be a clear and open statement in the Bible that Jesus is God. One phrase would be enough for me. Just one.
Show me it.

I just had post a response to the statement that Jesus never claimed to be the Son of God:
Luke 22:70(NKJV) - Then they all said, " Are You then the Son of God?" So He(Jesus) said to them, "You rightly say that I am."
It would be a good idea to actually read the Bible before making any claims about what Jesus did or did not say.

first off, I will start out by defending your case, people, don't pick on an honest question. You "spigetti monster's"er's out there need to learn alittle respect for the common christian on a mission. Secondly, be civil, please, come on this is a question, not a bases for grounds to fight on and insult over.
Now, about the question. I can live here without God, (as cruel as that sounds let me explain before you judge please.) Heaven is where I cannot survie without my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Son Of GOD. Without God I may have no life here, but I would still be alive, although I realize that is not where you are going with this question. To live, to be happy, without God, no I doubt I could. God has been my faithful friend for 9 yrs now. And to live without him is like living without a heart, impossible, and unbearable. Eternal life is what no man nor woman can live with, without the SON OF GOD. They that are not in him are spread far and wide, but they are here. I love the Lord. So I believe people of course can live without God, for how long, and how happily, that I will give you ten to one odds on that it wont be over a lifetime.
God bless, and merry Christmas

Yes, people lived without the Son of God for thousands of years before his birth.
Do you not believe you too are the child of God?

That would be assuming that here is a god, and that he somehow knocked up an earth woman and had a son. Assuming is always dangerous. As they say, it makes an *** of U and Me.
You bibble quotes don't sway anyone of any sense. Especially when it's full of typos.

So far, so good...taken literally, John 5:12 suggests that that the worlds population should only be a couple of thousand..

I live each and everyday without the son of god(tm).
What's so hard about that?
However, to believe that one has a means of living on after death is absurd.

Native Americans did for thousands of years. They never heard of God or Jesus until the white man came here in 1492. It was all down hill after that.

Yes, very much so. My continual survival is in no way linked to a preacher who was executed by the authorities as a trouble-maker, in a provincial backwater of the Roman empire two thousand years ago.

The son of God doesn't exist. That is a lie from Christians. There is only ONE GOD! That is ALLAH.
