First off, why do Christians automatically assume:
a. All atheist/agnostics believe in science as the ultimate truth

b. Atheist assume that they know how/why we are here.

Why are Christians so concerned about how we got here?
Why can't Christians just live there life instead trying to prove themselves to something they're told to have faith in because "it" hasn't been proven to exist? What about other religions? What about their gods? Are their gods real too? Are they going to h*ll for not believing in your god? Are they lost souls? What if they said the same for you? Do you feel that you're religion is better so you're right? Do I have to pray to find $100 dollars? What if I found it without praying, did somebody pray for me? Would I have found it without praying?

Questions continued:
If you're god is omnipotent, why does he allow free will? Doesn't he know everything? Control everything? Doesn't that mean he knows who will go to hell? Why doesn't he stop them? Is it a game/show for your god to create people and watch as they choose where they want to go? Is he having fun doing this? Why doesn't he stop evil? If people do bad, are they going to your so-called h*ll? Does this mean that the "devil" has equal power? Who created your god?

*READ HERE* It's funny how many Chistians never take this kind of information into consideration considering I was raised as a Christian and I took some Christian ideas into consideration - thus forming these questions.

To Arewethereyet:

If that is true, why do people keep asking if I believe we came from monkeys or evolution? Does it matter? Just live for crying out loud or try to figure out where we came from yourself - without being brain-washed from a fantasy book with possible elements of historical truth (only relating to people, no miracles, no flashy events)

Lol be careful your head might explode with so many Q and why do you despise Christians?
God is not an institution, he is not confined to one religion or any other man made religious ideology or beliefs. God is infinite.
Mankind created religion and religious doctrine. Most did for the good of man but down through the ages it has been twisted and made decadent in its teachings to control peoples spiritual and everyday behaviour.

Look life is short enough, we all die eventually so why don't you ask your Q then when you meet God himself. I know it will be a big surprise for you, passing on and realising their is an afterlife, but hey get over it...

If you really want to know God, just step out into mother nature and the beauty of the world we live in and try and make a difference, regardless how small. We are all human, we are all equal, don't you think we should try to give a little in return for the short time we spend upon this wonderful planet, rather than stripping down ancient text and doctrin to justify a means to existence...

We all think, feel, cry, laugh, love, live and die, what and how we got here is really irrelevant to the existence of God himself for he is the Alpha and the Omega, the universe itself!

All I can say is get a life...after all you could go out and get hit by a bus tomorrow!

You asked 25 questions. I think that's cheating, for normally you should ask 25 separate questions which would cost you 125 points.

So I'll just answer the one to be fair. We are not that concerned with how we got here, we merely stand in the midst of your accusations and say God did it, and so far, you haven't been able to give a better answer. We don't know and don't really care that you believe science is the ultimate truth, that's not what we believe.

Well as an atheist do you believe that science is the ultimate truth? Why are people here in this earth? What is the prupose of life? How did we get here? Does God exist? Can you cite examples if He is or is He not existing? have you ever prayed? Has someone ever prayed for you?

"Why are Christians so concerned about how we got here?"
probably the same reason that you are concerned enough to freak out about it on yahoo. i understand that christians come across as know it alls but the truth is you shove the same crap down our throats, the reason for seperation of church and state was origionally so the state couldnt tell the church what to do and vise versa, now its seperate the church from the state, whats soo evil about christianity that we have to take prayer out of schools, the word god out of the pledge, and the ten commandments out of the public eye, i'm real sorry if thou shall not murder offends you, but it doesnt matter, because when you see a christian you see a white eyed old man standing on a box screaming the end is near, well guess what i see, i see you, i see this typical crap, this bible burning bullcrap. i'm tired of it i really am, i mean if your right you dont go anywhere when you die, its just over, but if i'm right i'm going to heaven and your going to hell, so why are you trying to bring me and everyone else down with you, if you have your own personal beliefs and ideas try keeping them to yourself because afterall, if your right you aernt making a difference in the end

Why do you assume all Christians think this way?
You only get one question for your points so I won't be answering the other twenty.

You can’t tell the person that his/her conclusion is illogical using logic, if that person has arrived at his/her conclusion without using logic. Have a nice day
