why do believers exist?

Question

so we can feel better about ourselves?
so we can be superior to them?

Answer 1

What would this world be without the sheeple?

Answer 2

To fill out the Creators Divine Will. Using our free will, and obeying God's Law. If you look at all the worlds big Religions the Laws are always the same. Perhaps the wording is different or the message was delivered differently.
The major problems arise I suspect as usual the elite ruling class just hated the fact the the lowest beggar on the street matters as much to God as Kings, Presidents, etc.. and as a matter of fact the would be judge much more harshly, being in a better position of wealth and power to help lift the poor and oppressed from their misery as is their duty.
I suspect that some of the full impact of it all was porpusely lost in the tranlation over the Centuries as the Powerful would find this unacceptable, and back in those times the Clergy were also the Politicions.
One instance is I was recently shown documents that suggest Jesus actually said" Do NOT to others what you would NOT have done to you." Somewhere when the NOT got changed to on it becomes redundent with "forgive thy enemies" and "Love thy neighbor as thyself" Yet that Not would have to make you pause before starting aggressive war, (not that the elte would care. (their worry was more about summoning fighting armies with thoughts and teachings that God has said explicitly "Not to do something to others you would NOT one done to you"
When it changes to "Do on to others as you would have them do on to you" It becomes a more like an abstract get around to do a good deed, maybe even as a form of penance. So that is but a single word, maybe there would be more believers if their was social justice here on earth as it is in heaven. As Jesus was trying to convey because He did say He came to bring good news to the poor and oppressed.
Gods economic laws say it is a sin to charge interest (as Muslims still follow Christians dumped that one I doubt God is impressed) Also every 7 years you must release anybody from all debt they may owe you. This law is true for Christian, Jew and Muslin. Weather all of our corrupt leaders like to hide these truths...Mary

Answer 3

Cause God wants us here to tell you about Him. He loves you even though you suffer from a superiority complex.

Answer 4

Some people need a crutch to help them through life. It's also customary to makeup some stupid explanation for things man can not explain.

Answer 5

They will tell you that they are here because of divine intervention or to serve God's will. I say that they are here for the same reason as the rest of us: Our parents had unprotected sex, sperm fertilized the ova and 9 months later, voila.

Answer 6

non-beleivers like you will never understand how it feels to be a beleiver!
I used to be in doubt about God and everything the religions preach but after a lot of research, I have found that everything can not be proven by facts.

Answer 7

If your feeling better about yourself is dependent on your disdain of others, you truly are typical of your festering ilk.

Believe me, your type is superior to noone.

Answer 8

Many Christian believers exists, because many Christians know Him.

Answer 9

Answer 10
