I have accepted God, and I live with a purpose.

I'm a little too old to have an imaginary friend (God) - The point of living is to have as much fun as possible before you die.

Why wouldn't I want to believe in God?
because that closes me off to any and all other perspectives that make more sense to me regarding life, i would stop questioning, I would settle, and I would never listen, compromise, or find enjoyment with those that oppose or challenge my view. I would become less interesting because all my answers would be limited to a teaching of a book, people I know would stop having well-rounded conversations with me because they knew inevitably I would eventually try to convert them.
In my travels through the world, I would be viewing the world with a closed perspective, and other cultures that weren't Christian, I would see as those I need to 'change' for the better. Instead of listening and appreciating their views, I would only be concentrating on an angle to get them saved.
I would basically being lying to myself, I would surrender logic to blind faith, and I would lose the creativity and shock value humor I currently have. I would be unhappy, and unsure of my decisions. get it?

Because I've accepted my own Deities. And time and time again, they've shown me many reasons to live.
As a matter of fact, I've been off of anti-depressants since I converted from Christianity to Paganism. :)

That's the point. Living. Atheists aren't afraid to live.
It's Xians who spend their whole life worrying about the afterlife.

Try again, chump. The godbots talk and talk about "going to heaven" but none of you has the balls to hurry up and go.
Why don't the godbots sign up for the military and die for jeezus in Iraq?
Why don't the godbots who _don't_ believe suicide is a sin kill themselves?
The religious are all talk and no action. They're cowards who don't have the stones to stand up for what they believe in.

You haven't accepted me as your savior and master, whats the point in living?
Your "question" makes about as much sense as my "question".

God offers absolute bliss...what's the point of that? There's no creative impulse in the absence of discontent. And you don't feel so bad about your own mortality when you have true love.

If you're not a Chargers fan, what's the point in living?
My question is just as meaningless.
