Why do you believe in God, Allah, Jesus or any other religious icon?

Question

I am very picky to what i belive. Science has proved many things, science is mostly what i belive in. But there has to be some where so the heaven hell thing could be far fetched but if there is life, there could be an after life. After all some things cant be explained. But i stay open minded to new posibilitys.

I was rasied Roman Catholic and i think that some things are just not right.

Some pof you say to try to ask. That is the first thing i did when i went to Religion classes. I have heard nothing. I try to alow myself to but somrethings cant be done.

FYI, science dose tell us how we got here and nwhy we exist, Its called The evelotion theory.

Answer 1

I am Catholic, and I believe in God and Jesus because it's what I've always been taught. If I had been taught to worship Buddah or Allah, then I probably would, but yeah, it's just what my parents and my school always taught me to believe.

Answer 2

Science hasn't and never will solve the few questions that all humans have. Why am I here, What do I do with my life, Why was everything created in the first place, why do I care, why do I not care. Science didn't teach me these things and yet I feel them inside all the time. And the answers I get don't come from any tv show, book, magazine, or other person. It comes from the divine being that gave us these thoughts in the first place. Science will never be able to solve why, when people believe in divine creation, and Jesus, their lives actually are happier and more complete than others who choose not believe in anything at. Not saying that's you, but you get the drift.

Answer 3

I believe that people that believe in religious icons are disatisfied with their lives and want something more but don't know where to turn. This place and this time that nature have so graciously bestowed upon us is really great; blue sky, trees, oceans, furry animals, and some good people too. Most deeply religious individuals sell out the beauty of this life for the hope of extending their meager,mundane, boring, and hate filled lives into an eternity, as the wonder of their existence passes them by in the blink of an eye. Enjoy, life is beautiful!

Answer 4

Please do not disreguard what is KNOWN through science. I was for much of my life about where you were.

There is something about the continuation. We want to, but is it sheer desire to know that we will continue, or is it that we think that there is a chance that we can continue?

The way I see it, there is another side, much ridiculed, much misconception about, yet whatever the truth is about it, it's there to discover.

I will tell you that if you want to come to God, it's him pulling you in. I won't saddle you with a lot of scripture, but if you e-mail me, I can give it to you.

You see, God chooses who he wants in heaven to be with him. And you are not someone who has to be exempt. You are sounding like someone who is at least being honset about all of this.

I can tell you that Jesus is the one that stands out. He's the one that makes sense. He is the one who came because it was foretold that he would come. And he did exactly what he said he would.

But seek after the truth, and if you find it, I think that you will find Jesus at the end of the road.

Science has no proof of a big explosion (bang).They can't say what blew up,how it blew up,why it decided on its own to blow up.Where the "dynamite" came from.What created the "dynamite" .What was before the "dynamite".Explode a firecracker and see if you come up with something worthwhile.Also horses are still horses,pigs are pigs,lions are still lions,etc.The universe is a well timed (intricate) vast group of countless stars.The stars have their path.The galaxies of stars have a certain path.The clusters of galaxies have their own paths (millions).Check a star map it can tell you when and where any star will be or has been anytime in history.

Answer 6

I believe in Allah .I have studied Arabic for 12 years and from linguistic point of view,I found it to be miracle beyond the power of human beings.Therefore I believe In the old and new scriptures (the hidden copies) on the strength of the Quran.

Answer 7

I was born a Muslim but only experience my unwavering conviction in Islam and Allah when i was about 18 after reading the english translation of the Holy Quran. Read it, its an eye opener :)

Answer 8

I used to have a major belief in science until it went back on itself and created quandaries like the Heisenberg and Plank theories that says it's a dice throw. Science is gambling! Give me a break!

God has proven himself to me and I can't begin to explain it to you or expect you to believe. You have to experience that yourself. I have hands because of God and the Angels.

As for Jesus, I grew up on him, read him and find him quite enlightening. More so than any other entity.

Answer 9

This world and the next have submitted to Him their reins, and the skies and earths have flung their keys towards Him. The thriving trees bow to Him in the morning and evening, and produce for Him flaming fire from their branches, and at His command, turn their own feed into ripe fruits.

The Book of Allah is among you. It speaks and its tongue does not falter. It is a house whose pillars do not fall down, and a power whose supporters are never routed.

Allah deputised the Prophet after a gap from the previous prophets when there was much talk (among the people). With him Allah exhausted the series of prophets and ended the revelation. He then fought for Him those who were turning away from Him and were equating others with Him.

Certainly this world is the end of the sight of the (mentally) blind who see nothing beyond it. The sight of a looker (who looks with the eye of his mind) pierces through and realises that the (real) house is beyond this world. The looker therefore wants to get out of it while the blind wants to get into it. The looker collects provision from it (for the next world) while the blind collects provision for this very world.

You should know that a man gets satiated and wearied with everything except life, because he does not find for himself any pleasure in death. It is in the position of life for a dead heart, sight for the blind eye, hearing for the deaf ear, quenching for the thirsty and it contains complete sufficiency and safety.

The Book of Allah is that through which you see, you speak and you hear. Its one part speaks for the other part, and one part testifies to the other. It does not create differences about Allah nor does it mislead its own follower from (the path of) Allah. You are joined together in hatred of each other and in the growing of herbage on your filth (i.e., for covering inner dirt by good appearance outside). You are sincere with one another in your love of desires and bear enmity against each other in earning wealth. The evil spirit (Satan) has perplexed you and deceit has misled you. I seek the help of Allah for myself and you.

Answer 10

If you have been to the ocean, no one can ever make you believe it is not there. I have met the Holy Spirit of God, I have heard from Jesus. I know that Father God is real. If you want to meet Him, ask honestly. You will get an answer.
