I mean come on He's all you could ever want. loving, kind, compassionate, forgiving, caring. why would people want to turn that down? Everyone is trying to find faults in the Bible and in God like God ever did something to them. why can't we all just be on 1 side and stop beating each other up!?

Because they don't want ANYBODY telling them what is right and what is wrong, they choose to rule themselves. Adam and Eve all over. Really, like I didn't see that thumbs down coming, really you nonbelievers are like an open book, with bad writing.

You can't prove that something's wrong, if it doesn't even exist.
"...He's all you could ever want. loving, kind, compassionate, forgiving, caring." Which bible are you reading? Yahweh god is a lying, petty, murderous, jealous being, who was content to completely f with one of his most devout followers, just to prove a point.
"...why would people want to turn that down?" Two reasons:
First, refer to the last paragraph about your god being a lying, petty, murderous, jealous despot.
Second, it's not real.
"Everyone is trying to find faults in the Bible"...it's not tough. In the creation story, Yahweh god lies to his creation, while the serpent is truthful. The contradictions just flow from there.
"why can't we all just be on 1 side and stop beating each other up!?" We can. Put the bible down, and we'll talk.

because it proves that theres a Satan out there corrupting us and whipsering lies in our ears. and the atheists are the ones weak enough to belive them. In turn calling God belivers weak and dumb, even though they are the ones that belive a whole bunch of human scientists thinking they have found all the awnsers to the universe.
besides, God said this would happen, get used to it, not gonna change, humans will be neck at neck trying to prove each other wrong when we both dont have solid proof. Just a whole bunch of theories and feelings. Scientist dont have proof to disaprove God. Religions people dont really have solid proof of God, exept what we feel ourselves. Which wont be good enough for some people, who dont bother to do the searching themselves, asking for immediate proof to something higher than our own intelligence, and then beliving evolution scientists just to make up for it
So yeah, this will be a continous cycle

Ah, this. Well, personally, I'm a believer of God, but there are still a lot of people out there who don't believe in him. People are different, you know, like having different religions or being atheist. And to them, God doesn't really exist, so I guess they think that it's true. Religious people are always trying to prove that their religion is right. I must say I'm not an exception. ^^;

Um, because one religion won't fit almost 7 billion people. And if we're going to be on "one side" why does it have to be Christianity? I mean, there are lots of Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Pagans, etc. out there. Let's pick one of those and be that, not Christian. Does that make you uncomfortable? I thought it would.
It's like saying let's only eat Vanilla Ice Cream. When there's so many flavors out there, why would anyone think everyone should eat Vanilla and that's it??

Because men are arrogant and proud and love to puff themselves up. Look at satan's ego, and he lived WITH God. What a jerk.
Look at Timothy McVey. Until his dying moment he claimed he was captain of his own destiny. Until he met satan.
That is just man's arrogant nature. Period.

Naivety is comforting, isn't it.
It is not difficult to find no reason to believe in God. I don't understand why you even bother to consider God a possibility, much less throw yourself into it hook line and sinker. The only thing that I've been able to use to explain it is emotional, superstitious thinking that has difficulty dealing with the world as it is, and so leans heavily on an imaginary one to make getting through life more palatable.

Its not that they want to prove God wrong. They just want to be right in their sinful ways. They want to be a drug user! They want to drink their acholic drinks. They want to gamble. They want to be lustful in their thoughts and ways. They like their sins. They don't care if they are going to hell. But one day they will care! One day it will be too late for them to change. They will be in hell forever and ever!

Most people don't like someone telling them what to do...and they kinda have to see it to believe it so if they can disprove it then they don't have to worry about anything after they die and they can live how they want to live........
