If I don’t believe the sun will come up tomorrow, does my unbelief negate reality? A lot of people believe and live like there is no hell. Jesus spoke twice as much about hell than heaven for a reason. Hell is a real place! I would tend to believe someone who actually experienced death over someone who is just guessing about what happens after death. Jesus was died on the cross, was buried for 3 days, and then came back. I believe His words.

I would say it boils down to some people needing purpose in their lives and its easier for some outside force to give you purpose than to find it for yourself.
Someone said 'god won't appear til you believe' .So you've actually seen the face of god, well lucky you even the billlions claiming to believe don't claim that.
Also the arguement that electricity doesn't exist (have you never seen lightening) or gravity (never seen the proverbual apple fall from the tree). I have yet to see conclusive proof of a miracle.

because its impossible that the earth and all of its creatures just ended up here. im not criticizing you, but just look at the way your body works. when you are cold, you will start to shiver so that your body stays warm and you turn pale because your blood vessels constrict in order to store heat. there are also endorphins in the body that give us a natural high, especially when we are in a great amount of pain. sometimes when we are going through something physically unbearable, the endorphins will set it and we wont feel the pain. theres the fight or flight syndrome. when we face a tough situation or danger, the adrenaline pumps in our system and we perform at our absolute best. our bodies could have been made perfectly, but a higher power wanted it to be known that it is watching after us and protecting us. our bodies have many self defense mechanisms.

Electricity doesn't exist either! Nor gravity! Right? The only difference between these things and God is that God is only felt by those who don't have to see to believe. That's called faith! If you won't allow yourself to consider that he exists, then he won't reveal himself to you! Nice of him, eh? He gives you the choice and allows you to go on in your fantasy of believing that he doesn't exist just to make you happy... for a time, anyways!

God does exsist. there are so much proof he does. and i know with no doubt God does truly exsist. hes everywhere and everything. just because you cant see God's face or body it doesnt mean he don't exsist. He does exsist.

It's a common flaw in human nature, like the way we all see optical illusions.

I guess billions of people just aren't as smart as you. Good luck with that.
