1. Believing in God is like spending your entire life in jail waiting to see the judge
2. Simply believing the devil exist causes an unplesent feeling
3. Feeling attacked just because someone says "God is fake" is being in a very bad position
4.Feeling the need for God to watch over you is like thinking something or someone is always out to get you.
5.Christians are taught that they're nothing without God. So you spend your entire life thinking you're nothing without being accompanied?
6. Christians are taught that nobody's good. So they think they're living in a world where everyone's bad. Sounds like hell to me

Believing in God is a wonderful thing. All that you say is so untrue. I would rather believe in God than not believe in him. You see, if I am wrong,(which I'm not) and there is no God, then who am I hurting? I will die and never exist again. On the other hand, you who don't believe will know the truth one day and suffer the consequences. God is real.

Congrats
1. Go ahead and do what you want, God will judge you at the end...but man will judge you now if you break the law. Oh well, lots of people find God in jail.
2. What devil..oh...I believe some people are very much like a devil...but not the devil.
3. Attacking people because you do not believe in God is a very bad position...also poor manners and poor character.
4. Who cares if someone is watching as long as you are not doing anything wrong.
5. And how does an atheist know what Christians are taught...do you go in disquise to Sunday School? I just have a normal life, do not think about someone with me all the time...in fact, I never have.
6. You missed the point in church again, why don't you stop going. In no church, Sunday school or group I ever attended have I been taught that nobody was good. In fact, I have been taught there is good in everyone.
Better take a look around, hell is a very compelling place I have been told...by atheists.

well believe it or not. but i ve never felt that things u r saying... being with Allah is the best feeling ever:
1- when u love some one, and hes/she far away from u, u ll be dying waiting the day that u ll see them in Right?? well its the same here, i love Allah & do everything i do cauze i love Him not becauze im afraid of hell (sure this is a reason but its not that main at all). and i really cant wait the judgement day to see Allah -the most merciful- also Allah promised us with paradise after that day
2-devil cant ever ever harm u as long as u r with Allah.. Devil exists in both ways (if u believe in God or not & the evidences r so clear) but if u believe in Allah, devil can never harm u (u ll be then in the protection of the most powerful)
3-well u have to believe in something (i dont mean religion, but anything in life) and this thing anyone may says its fake.. does this mean u wont believe in anything u do just becauze u dont want others to say its fake??! i guess its not logically, dont u see it wiz me..
4-actually i didnt got it exactly
5- im not christian, but its just like i told u. if u love some one, u ll always feel u need them and u r nothing with out them.. (its just a kind of excess love)
6- we- muslims- didnt learn something like that. there r good and ther r bad, this is hows life and this is what we learnt
hope i answered ur questions in a good way & hope u got my point.. breifly life for me is really great and happy jst becauze im muslim (thank Allah), & i guess if i werent muslim i was going to be lost & misreable. hpe u ll find the internal peace as i found it :)..
peace my friend

Open your eyes and you will see that we are more content than you are. Remember the truth will set you free. Being deceived keeps you in prison.
1. Jesus already paid the penalty for my sin, so I already know what the Judge is going to say. I would love to see the Judge face to face. Would you?
2. You enemy is happy to know that you don't even realize that he exists. What an advantage.
3. Feeling repulsed just because someone believes in God is pathetic.
4. Atheists use the word FEAR more than Christians. i wonder why?
5. How does an atheist feel without their pride?
6. If you can ignore the wickedness in this world, then perhaps you are a part of it.

no. it's just like any other subject people debate on.
1. no it's not really at all like that. it's like living life like people who don;t believe in God , but knowing that actions have consequences, but if we mess up we will be forgiven if we're truely sorry.
2. we don't walk around every day worring about the devil. it's more a state of temptation and sin then an actual being out to get us.
3. When people say that i know their wrong but i respect their choice to not be involved in God. It's like if someone says being a republican is stupid and that's what you are. you don;t actually care they disagree.
4.I know God isn't out to get me, but it's always a reminder that i should try to do good things
5. No i just know that i can never be like "well God i don;t need you anyway i can do this myself." because i woudn't exist without HIm
6. We are not taught that nobody's good were taught nobody's perfect. and everyone sins and it's true. not everyone's bad, but that dosnt mean they don;t sin sometimes.

1) most christians dont see God as a judge who is waiting to punish them for doing somethiing bad. Is that how you see your father? as someone who is just waiting to jump on you and beat you down everytime you do something wrong? no, God is our Father and Friend, and seeing him is like going home after being away for a long time
2) yes the devil is unpleasant, but there is the reassurance in the protection that God gives us from the devil
3) It gives us the opportunity to share our faith and hopefully save the person's life through intellectual conversation
4) see answer 1. God is not out to get us, it is comfort in knowing that even though time is hard, you are never really alone
5) you are something without God, you are still yourself. God doesnt define who you are, he completes you and makes you feel whole. you know you always have someone to turn to and depend on in a time of need.
6) we are put on this Earth to spread the news and love of God. we could not do this if we were in a perfect world. Do you feel like youre in hell? You see the effects of evil in the world in the same way that Christians do, but you dont have the reassurance that there is a place without all this evil. This is all you have

1. It's not, when you know that both the Judge and the Defense Attorney are on your side!
2. Yes, the existence of the Devil is unpleasant, but we are vindicated in the knowledge that he will be destroyed soon, and he will ultimately have no power over you.
3. When someone "attacks", I rather feel sorry for him, pray for him, and try to answer his questions the best I can, because I know there are underlying issues as to why he said, "God is fake".
4. Someone IS always out to get us. His name is Satan, and he hates all of humanity. As you can see by watching the news, he knows he is going to die, and he wants to take as many humans with him as possible. Satan is more powerful than me, but God is more powerful than Satan by far, and God is on my side. So I'm not afraid.
5. We need to empty ourselves of "self" and let God fill up the empty space. Then we can live for the glory of God, and people will see this about us. The world would be such a better place if everyone stopped thinking only about themselves and started only thinking about other people.
6. We all live with the curse of sin, but we know that Christ paid the penalty for us, so we don't have to pay it ourselves. Yes, everyone is bad, to differing degrees. Thank God he has provided a way for us to escape from this curse. One day, God will destroy all sin and unrepentant sinners, and he will re-create the Earth the way it used to be before Adam and Eve sinned, and we get to live in it. It will be awesome!

I was brought up as a Christian and was never made to think like that or feel that way. I was going through stage where I was questioning my beliefs and I definately feel more at peace knowing there is a God.

1. you still live your life.
2. yes because the why would you believe in evil?
3. any attack on a person's belief is considered "not nice."
4. Agreed, not pleasant, although if you can use it to your advantage, all the better for you. Everyone is observed, if not watched, on a daily basis.
5. True
6. Agreed.

whichever way you decide, move on and live your life. if you reject the existence of god move on and surf and eat cheeseburgers in Paradise or race in nascar chase young attractive people and live. you only get one body to use during your allotted time. don't waste it being a half-*** philosopher and theologian. put one foot ahead of the other and move on to live creatively and keep moving toward your goal until you spot a better goal. live it baby just live it out. who knows all the things you are ruminating about?
